Federal Grant Approved For Hospital In Morgan County BY NANCY KEELEY TR Staff Reporter An Appalaclnia grant of $395,000 has been approved toward a million dollar proposal by Bethesda Hospital to locate a satellite outpatient facility in Morgan County, according to word received Thursday by 10th District Cong. Clarence E. Miller. Approval of a $400,000 Hill Burton grant from the Health, Education and Welfare Department is expected soon. Additional funds, including a proposed levy in Morgan County for $120,000 and $80,270 from Bethesda Hospital, would bring the over all total to $995,270.

The proposal, submitted early in 1971, was initiated by the hospital and Morgan County residents in the face of a critical shortage of adequate health services there, according to Albert W. Jones, Bethesda Hospital administrator. The proposed 9,000 square foot satellite would be built on land adjacent to and provided by the Mark Rest Center in McConnelsville, and would offer a variety of ambulatory outpatient services. Plans do not include beds, but will offer medical services, nurse practitioners and or telemedicine, helicopter and vehicular ambulance service and county pub lic health offices. Basic medical coverage is expected to be provided by McConnelsville physicians with backing of Zanesville physicians by way of telecommunications for the 12,500 resident county.

Bethesda Hospital hopes to supply administrative, fiscal, personnel, maintenance and supply services for the outpatient function. If examination indicates hospitalization, the patient may go to the hospital of his choice. The project is a research effort to determine how a physician's skills can be extended by the team approach, adaptation to the modern space age technology and development of paraprofessionals to assume certain routine and preliminary medical duties. The service is being encouraged by the Morgan County Health Planning Committee of the Southeastern Ohio Health Planning Association. Officials concerned with the Hill Burton program at the Ohio Department of Health and with the Appalachian Regional Commission in the Ohio Department of Development, the Buckeye Hills Hocking Valley Regional Development District and the Tuscarawas Valley Regional Advisory Committee are being involved in federal funding considerations.

Daley's 59-member delegation. The delay gave Burger time to consider an urgent appeal from the Democratic National Committee that he reassemble the Supreme Court from its summer recess to consider overturning the California decision. Daley's group asked, too, that the Chicago decision be reversed. McGovern stood to gain 41 delegates from the Chicago area if Daley's bid fails. Those delegates, along with the 153 from California, would assure him a first-ballot presidential nomination when the roll is called in Miami Beach Wednesday night, McGovern's aides said.

It was presumed here although no announcement was made that Burger was in contact with his colleagues on the Supreme Court in pondering the requests for an extraordinary session.

The source whose country has full diplomatic representation tin Hanoi said these moves have been made independently by Russia and China, without apparent coordination.

Western diplomats here had no information about the moves. They either have no direct link with Hanoi or very limited access to North Vietnamese officials there. (In Washington, a State Department spokesmen sidestepped direct comment on the report, He cautioned "against what are sometimes pendular swings of Neither Russia nor China is applying pressure to North Vietnam, because neither can afford to politically, the source said. On the contrary, both countries have confirmed that they support North Vietnam politically, morally and militarily- Both support Hanoi's terms for a Vietnam peace and neither has suggested any specific concessions to the United States, the source said. What both have done the source said, was to Imply the need for greater flexibility on the part of Hanoi.

They have also let it be known that they cannot risk confrontation with the United States, the source said. Already the supply of large quantities of sophisticated Soviet weapons has been severely handicapped by the American blockade of North Vietnamese ports. The source stressed that there was no suggestion of concerted Sino-Soviet pressure on Hanoi. Nor was there any indication whether Hanoi would heed the counsel from its two main allies, which it has ignored in the past even when taking their economic and military aid. China's and Russia's attitude toward a negotiated Vietnam settlement has nevertheless caused considerable depression in Hanoi, the source said.

For some time Hanoi was said to have shown growing disappointment with its key allies. This has now given way to outright suspicion, which was deepened when neither Peking nor Moscow took action against the American blockade of North Vietnamese ports, the source said. 4 Marke Good EIpc. range, good condition, 7 ft. sofa, good condition, $25.

Convention Shapes Up In Florida MIAMI BEACH (UPI) -George S. McGovern confidently reviewed a list of possible vice presidential running mates Thursday as Hubert H. Humphrey placed his still distant hopes for the Democratic nomination in the hands of the U. S.

Supreme Court. While workmen rushed to complete construction before the weekend onslaught of about 5,600 delegates and alternates at this sundrenched ocean resort, convention managers were considering tearing up their original timetable fashioned primarily for evening television to allow enough time for prolonged floor flights over seating contests and the party platform. "This is shaping up as a grueling convention for all of us," said Ed Cubberly, a Democratic National Committee spokesman. Barring a last minute change in the schedule, the Democratic National Convention is to begin at 7 p.m. EDT Monday.

But Cubberly held out the possibility of two convention sessions daily, some starting as early as 10 a.m. EDT, rather than the usual evenings-only schedule, to hold the convention to its goal of nominating its presidential candidate during the Wednesday night session. With favorable credentials rulings from the U. S.

Five miles east of the city, Communist troops used captured American-built tanks to slow down about 13,000 South Vietnamese reinforcements moving toward the provincial capital. The force in Quang Tri city encountered little opposition in its sweep through southern areas of town, but South Vietnamese officers said they would not consider the city theirs until they took its 19th century citadel, a walled fortress near the center of the city believed occupied by Communist snipers. In an apparent attempt to slow down the South Vietnamese drive to retake Quang Tri province, the Communist hit the old imperial capital of Hue, 32 miles to the south, with the heaviest shelling attack there since the 1968 Tet offensive.

He said Congress already had exceeded Nixon's full-employment budget by more than $6 billion and promised the lYesident would veto all future measures if they substantially exceed his budget requests. William Timmons, who took over as head of the White House congressional liason office when Clark MacGregor moved over to head the President's campaign committee, made the remarks after he, MacGregor and John D.
