Th« Nysta Gate City Journal, Nyita, Oregon ’age Six Health Program Faulty Shock Absorbers and ADRIAN NEWS Winter Driving Do Not Mix Modern automobiles are pupped with shock absorbers • improve control and smooth ut the ride. But, if the shocks” are “shot,” the western motorist faced once gain with snowy and icy roads s taking his life in his hands. Poor shock absorbers cause n auto to dip, bounce and sway ¡.mgerously, according to the nsurance Information Institute. The car literally goes in “leaps >nd bounds.” The Institute suggested that owners watch for proper per­ formance, especially duringthe • inter months. Excessive dip­ ping of the front, or swaying when reducing speed or dri­ ving over bumpy roads, are signs that the shocks need a check and probably re­ placement. Other signals in­ clude a "mushy” ride or too much “heeling” on moderate turns. Fast braking causes the front end to nose down, which puts a strain on the front shocks in particular. Rough road sur­ faces also reduce the useful life of shock absorbers. Some de­ velop leaks, even on the most carefully driven cars, thus re­ ducing safety and efficiency. If faulty shocks are suspec­ ted, the road-wise auto owner schedules a visit to his regular service station or the dealer who maintains his car. Pre­ ventive maintenance helps avoid that nasty “shock” of winding up in a tight spot with an un- controllable vehicle Being aware of “shot shock symptoms,” the Institute con­ cluded, helps drivers evade the “expert” who, while filling your gas tank, tries to convince you that your shocks need “imme­ diate replacement.” Chances are that if your auto doesn’t exhibit the “symptoms,” it doesn’t need the “treatment."

Once you start balancing one rich, wholesome flavor with another, you will be delighted with the possibilités for exciting recipes. Especially in the area of cheese today we find a mind-boggling assortment to suit everyone’s fancv--mild to mellow.

In this recipe, it is set in perfect harmony with rich sour cream and fresh butter to turn ordinary noodles into a gourmet masterpiece. The subtle flavors of these dairy ingredients enhance one another to make a luscious dish hearty enough for an entree, but equally beautiful as a side dish.

Hatten, M.D., Boise Chairman, Preventive Medicine Committee, Treasure Valley Comprehensive Health Planning Agency announced that a meet­ ing of this committee will be held Wednesday, January 3, 1973 at 7 30 p.m. to review and comment on three proposed health plans for Oregon and Idaho. One of the plans for Ore­ gon include the Oregon Emer­ gency Medical Service Plan which will permit extensive training for emergency medi­ cal personnel, evaluate and up­ grade ambulances so they meet federal guide-lines. A ma­ jor objective is to improve emergency care in rural areas. The other plan will re-or- ganize the Oregon Department of Mental Health by the estab­ lishment of three divisions. They are Mental Illness, Men­ tal Retardation and Mental Re­ tardation and Development. There will be an administrator of Mental Health and three directors heading each of these areas. The establishment of an Alcohol and Drug Abuse Dept, under Mental Health will also be discussed. The Comprehensive Health Service System for Idaho will also be reviewed. Thisplanwill include training of emergency care personnel, para-medics, nurses, and physicians who in­ dicate an interest. The objec­ tive is to have at least one am­ bulance attendant per ambu­ lance trained under this pro­ gram. Evaluation and upgrad­ ing of ambulances will be in­ cluded. The Treasure Valley Com­ prehensive Health Planning Agency must review and com­ ment on all health programs that affect citizens of Trea­ sure Valley that are suppor­ ted by federal grants. Anyone interested in the above plans are invited to attend this meet­ ing which will be held at the Easter Seal Center, 1090 Federal Way, Boise, Idaho Budgets Required Before Federal Funds Are Spent Local governments will be required to submit budgets tie- fore appropriating and spend­ ing any funds received from federal revenue sharing. In a letter mailed to all Ore­ gon cities and counties, De­ cember 5, 1972, Department of Revenue Director Charles H. Mack said that these local go­ vernments must submit supple­ mental budgets if any of the revenue sharing money is to be spent prior to preparation of their next budgets. “If the local governmental unit decides not to spend the funds immediately,*' Mack said “its governing body should create a special fund into which revenue sharing money is pla­ ced until such time as the re­ venue sharing is budgeted, ap­ propriated. and eventually spent." Local governments have two years from receipt of the money in which to obligate and spend it. The Oregon law also requires mental budgets as well as pu­ blication of the budgets. Oregon's Local Budget Law (ORS 294.326) considers as ex­ ceptions to the prespending bud­ get requirement any funds re­ ceived as grants, gifts, be­ quests, or trusts for specific or special purposes. However. “The receipt of revenue sharing money by a local governing unit IS NOT an exception,” Mack said. "Re­ venue sharing money and in­ terest earned from Its invest­ ment must be budgeted before it can be spent.” The federal government has laid down twoprincipal require­ ments in reporting use of these funds. State and local govern­ ments must provide an accoun­ ting of the end use of the revenue sharing money and any interest received, and they must provide a record showing that tile money was used for one or more of the required ex­ penditures in Section 103 (a) of the Revenue Sharing Act. public hearings on the supplo- During the rummer • cum el can travel without waler for a week, during the winter, two week» c P“* \ / • / , j / " T^grytQS, V J]J 1ht Old l/m&L MALHEUR HOME TELEPHONE COMPANY » /F COM ft TO *T’ALKiM& TuPKfc-Vz yoUl?
