Traverse City Record-Eagle from Traverse City, Michigan • Page 5

Record-Eagle, Traverse City, Mich. Wednesday, Apr. 2, 1975 Page Printers training in new photo-compoiition processes (Record-Eagle photo) Comma; soon a new Record-Eagle The Record-Eagle will adopt a new easier-to-rcad format when it begins using the latest photocomposition equipment available. A of this chancre was made today by Donald J. Clifford, publisher.

Ths conversion is scheduled to take place early in May, he said. Utilising sophisticated photocomposition equipment, the Record-Eagle will be able to 1 increase its news report. Because of this technological change, the newspaper will be yble to offer more expanded national, international, state and local news. "We'll also publish more features, more human interest stories and special reports on the entertaining arts, rural scene, consumerism, religion, business and financial reports and outdoor news. Also the Record-Eagle is planning an action line column in which we'will try to" help consumers.

The change will be attractive, he said, but it won't be so radical that our readers won't recognize their hometown paper. The new format will offer wider columns, which reading experts contend are much easier to read; larger pictures and an layout of the pages. Clifford said that the new equipment will allow for greater creativity in advertisements providing a belter service to readers and advertisers. At the present time, most of the departments, a Record-Eagle are involved in various phases of training. Technologically the change means this: Under the present words are converted to lead type, then to mat and then to thick lead casts that reproduce the newspaper on the presses.

The new process is totally photo-composition. The words, through sophisticated equipment, are transriiitted to glossy printouts, then pasted up on a sheet, photographed and then transmitted to a plastic plate which is run on the presses.

(Photo by John Russell) Nurse home hearing a brevity record By SUE PERSZYK Record-Eagle writer TRAVERSE CITY The Senate hearing here Tuesday on nursing homes differed from the four previous hearings in Michigan in that so few testified. State Sen. John Otterbachcr (D-Grand Rapids), chairman of the special Senate committee investigating i homes, showed surprise at the early conclusion of the hearing. It was the shortest, running for 90 minutes, of the four previous ones in Bay City, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids and Cadillac. Only seven persons testified, none were operators of private nursing ho-mes.

The hearing was different from wluit we've had so far." Otterbachcr said, in that nursing home operators have made up about 50 percent of those testifying, consumers the rest, and most hearings have lasted from six to seven hours. The hearing in Cadillac Tuesday morning lasted three hours. The quality of care and the reimbursement issue are the points most often I discussed, the Senator said. The nursing home industry is largely government ported in that more than 75 I percent of the daily operating costs are paid through Medicaid which is 50 percent federal money and 50 percent state money. For fiscal year 1 9 7 4 7 5 the direct cost payments are expected to reach $154 million.

She said that with the current reimbursement system, it is imoossible to give a "high level of care," comply i federal and state minimum wage laws, and pay for malpractice insurance, without going in the red. The Senate Committee is charged with investigating all aspects of nursing home operations with an eye to correcting problems through legislation and-or regulatory mechanisms. Mr.

There will be eight more hearings in Michigan, before the committee begins to compile the data, "We won't arrive at any conclusion until all the data i collected," he said. "Problems will be identified in fact and we intend to keep the investigation fair, thorough and objective.
