To the Editor; Administrator and Board o f Di rectors, Morrow County Health District: I attended your May 4 budget and board meeting. I am very dis turbed by your position regarding the operation o f a medical clinic in the Boardman area. When the county-wide health Most improved award: Megan. Healy. Most inspirational district was formed, I supported Stephanie Howard (not pictured). it. The major consideration estab lished by the Boardman area was that the county-wide district would fund a physician (M .D.) staffed, full-fledged clinic, open 40 hours per week and on-call to meet the requirements, among others, o f the To the Editor: Since 1962, when prayer was Oregon Health Plan.

Get the bible back into schools H ep p n er 676-9481 The administrator reported to the board that effective July 1, the current half-time Boardman clinic physician would be reduced to two half-days per week. This is totally inadequate and negates the rea son to have the general Boardman area in the county-wide district. Boardman has a population approaching 3,000. It is the larg est town in the health district. The tax base o f this area o f the county medically served by the town con stitutes 2/3-3/4 o f the district’s tax base. We are paying for, and have a right to receive good medical facilities. It is because o f the district in ability or unwillingness to estab lish either a full-fledged operation or a mutually satisfactory arrange ment with the district’s former provider that you have an under used (and financially wasteful) clinic operation and a political di saster in the making. The board and administration need to listen to the elected rep resentative from Boardman. The old divisive policy was completely refuted w ith Sharon M ey ers’ overwhelming defeat o f the pre viously unelected Boardman rep resentative. You have the opportunity' to reconvene your budget commit tee and correct this error in judg ment before the final adoption o f your budget.
