Wall Street today Forecast "We now have one entity operating the system instead of four," he says. "That's consolidation." Council Vice-Chairman Gene Pinson says that "from what 1 gather from the public the service is going along pretty smoothly, although there are still a few bugs to be worked out, but I'm not satisfied with the expense. I think it's more expensive than what we had." Pinson says based on ambulance service experiences in other coutnties he iredicted Greenwood County would oose $200,000 or more a year on the service when the take-over was being discussed. That is the main reason he voted against it, he says. Councilman John Still said, "I think it's doing better than we expected economically.

There's room for improvement like in anything, but basically I'm satisfied with it." Councilman Bill Scurry, who also voted against the take-over, could not be reached for comment. According to EMS Director Willie Thomas, the average countywide response time is now 5.8 minutes. This includes 6.9 minutes for the Hodges ambulance, 8.8 minutes for the Highway 34 ambulance and less than 4 minutes for the Greenwood Courthouse ambulance. "We are still studying response times relative to the deployment of vehicles," Kennette says. Although not now considering any changes in ambulance locations, she says, "We will gather up all the data after the first full year of operation and take another look at it." EMS records shows that since Oct.

1 the EMS has responded to 2,238 calls involving 1,636 patients. Of particular importance, says Kennette, is the fact that 1,396 of the calls were "Code Three" (emergency) going out, but only 29 were "Code Three" returning to the hospital. This means EMS personnel are doing an excellent job of treating and stabilizing patients at the scene, she says. "Greenwood County is largely a rural area and (on-the-scene) treatment is extremely important. That's what saves lives," she says.

Kennette attributes the improved treatment to better equipment and better trained employees. Nine of the 18 ambulance workers are now qualified paramedics, meaning they can administer drugs and perform advanced life-saving techniques on the scene, she says. The training program is continuing and Kennette says the goal is to have all personnel qualify as paramedics as soon as possible. least $60. The.

$207,406 which EMS cost taxpayers for the first nine months is $79,306 more than the $128,100 county council budgeted for the service, but Kennette and Seigler say there is a good reason for that. "We budgeted for six months for two ambulances, but as it turned out we ended up operating three ambulances for nine months," Seigler says. The county planned to assume EMS control on Jan. 1, 1982, but did so on Oct. 1, 1981, when it was discovered they could not take-over only the billing portion of the service.

Also, Ware Shoals decided to give up its ambulance at the last minute, giving the county three ambulances to operate instead of two, Seigler says. Originally, the City of Greenwood and Ware Shoals operated the ambulances with Self Memorial Hospital handling the billing. The county paid part of the operating expenses and also reimbursed the hospital for the billing as well as paying 60 parcent of the salary of a billing clerk. Under that arrangment, the county received 10 percent of collections after expenses while Ware Shoals and Greenwood got the remaining 90 percent, Kennette says. I According to the best avaialable figures from a variety of sources, EMS under the old arrangment was costing -approximately $250,000 yearly, with expenses of approximately $90,000 each for Ware Shoals and the City of Greenwood and approximately $66,000 for the county.

But this arrangement included City of Greenwood firemen doubling as EMS employees. According to Kennette, a Feb. 22, 1981, letter from City Manager Higginbothan proposed hiring nine new EMS employees to replace the firemen. Under this proposal, she said, the cost to the county alone would have been an estimated $184,169 yearly. This would have pushed the annual operating expense under the old system above $350,000.

Kennette thinks the new county EMS operation is proving itself well. "As a whole, I think the operation has proven it can work says. "You have to consider that the EMS is not like any other budget. It is a service pro' vided for all the citizens of Greenwood County." Siegler says, "People have to realize that EMS would be costing somebody the taxpayer the same amount of money whether it is in county taxes or county and municipal taxes combined. large banks today joined in a cut in the prime lending rate from 16 to 15Vfe percent.

Today's early volume leaders included American Telephone Telegraph, unchanged at 52; LTV, down Vt at 10, and Warner Communications, up at 46Vs. On Wednesday the Dow Jones industrial average dropped 10.94 to 811.93. Declines outnumbered advances by more than 4 to 1 on the NYSE. Big Board volume totaled 53.83 million shares, against 45.74 million in the previous session. The NYSE's composite index lost .97 to 61.87.

At the American Stock Exchange, the market value dex was down 3.83 at 250.39. NEW YORK (AP) The stock market was mixed today, steadying after Wednesday's sharp decline. Losers held a 3-2 lead over gainers in the early tally of New York Stock Exchange-listed issues. But the Dow Jones average of 30 industrials rose .86 to 812.69 in the first half hour. The selloff on Wednesday was attributed mainly to fears of new upward pressure on interest rates.

But analysts said the credit markets responded relatively calmly to the Treasury's announcement of its third-quarter borrowing plans. Catching up with the decline in open-market rates earlier in the month, several (Continued from page 1 lubricants. This expense was lumped together with other county automotive expenses under the county garage budget by council in a June 28 meeting which was not publicly announced. It also does not include fringe benefits, estimated at approximately $45,000. This would give EMS a total 1982-83 fiscal year operating budget of approximately $354,000.

The 1982-83 budget includes no funds for major equipment improvements. County Council Chairman Carl Seigler is asking for contributions for an "EMS Equipment Fund," but refused this week to say how much has been collected in the two-month campaign. Greenwood County assumed the EMS operation on Oct. 1, 1981, consolidating a service that had previously been shared with the City of Greenwood, Town of Ware Shoals and Self Memorial Hospital. Critics of the move have been keeping a wary eye on EMS costs and service since then, and the ambulance service was a major topic of debate during the recent Democratic primary election for county council.

A breakdown of expenses for the first nine months supplied by Greenway shows $176,402 spent for salaries for 20 employees; $1,178 for travel; $15,238 for gas, oil and lubricants; $9,379 for vehicle repairs; $1,054 for equipment repairs; $4,250 for uniforms $195 for laundry and linen; $5,900 for medical supplies; $1,200 for employee training; and $38,272 for equipment. Kennette says collections are running at 87 percent under the county operation. This compares to a collection rate of approximately 60 percent under the old system, according to Seigler. Greenwood City Manager Travis Higgin-bothan says the city averaged 65-70 percent collections under the old system. Kennette attributes the higher collec- tion rate largely to the work of billing clerk Joyce Walker, "She is persistent with collections and extremely efficient in handling the paperwork and insurance claims, all of which work together for.

higher collections," Kennette said. County council on Feb. 2 increased the basic ambulance charge from $35 to $50, raised the per mile fee for out-of -county transports from $1 to $2, and included a $15 per hour fee for waiting after the first half-hour. Also, patients are now charged for medicine and oxygen at prevailing rates. Even with the increase, the EMS Board says Greenwood County still has one of the lowest base rates in the state, with most other counties charging at Reagan (Continued from page 1) He said that acceptance by the Pales-' tine Liberation Organization of Israel's right to exist "would be a step forward." and 5 a id he remains hopeful that a political solution will found to end the bloodshed in Lebanon.

Reagan is expected to extend the existing agreement for one year, even though farmers have pressed for a long-term arrangement. In Denver. Agriculture Secretary John Block said a long-term sales agreement with the Soviet Union was "not in the cards at this time." "I would favor that, at least at some point, but not today," Block said. Reagan sought to halt pipeline construction in response to the Soviet role in the military crackdown in Poland! "We have made it clear" that if the military rule is relaxed, "we'd be very happy to review our position with regard to the pipeline," he said. But, the president said "There are a couple of very important differences' in his support for continued grain sales and his opposition to the pipeline, which would carry fuel from Siberia to Western Europe.

(Continued from page 1) "could have a very profound effect" in hastening a recovery. He said the measure, now being considered by the Senate, would have a post-ive psychological effect on the financial markets, which are keeping interest rates high because they fear giant budget deficits and rekindled inflation in the future. The amendment "would indicate the government is really determined to end this kind of runaway spending and have some fiscal integrity and common sense," Reagan said. He refused to back down when asked how he could endorse the amendment after drafting the largest budget deficits in history. "The budget deficits I don't think cdh be laid at an individual's door," the president said.

He contended he would be presiding over smaller deficits had congressional Democrats given him all the spending cuts he wanted and the full tax cut, which he said would have fueled a stronger recovery from the recession. CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) Once you could just sing the "Chattanooga Choo Choo." Now you can drive down it. The City Commission on Wednesday approved the honorary renaming of a 14-block downtown section of Market Street as Choo Choo Boulevard. Because the designation is honorary, it will not require buildings along the section to change their official addresses.

Chattanooga businessman B. Allen Casey, board chair' man of the Chattanooga Choo Choo hotel and convention complex, had requested the new name. The commission gave a Deaths and funerals. framed copy of its proclama tion to Casey. Chattanooga, once a major regional center of railroading, achieved fame from the Glenn Miller Orchestra's big-band hit song, of the early 1940s, "Chattanooga Choo Choo." Nicaragua claims U.S.

aided air raid MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) The government says it repulsed an attempted air raid on Nicaragua's main oil refinery and claimed the attack was carried out with the complicity of "an extra-Central American power," a clear reference to the United States. Miguel d'Escoto, foreign minister of Nicaragua's leftist Sandinista regime, told a news conference Wednesday that Nicaraguan aircraft intercepted and turned back two light planes from neighboring Honduras that were armed with rockets and bombs for an attack on the refinery in western Managua. Nicaragua has repeatedly claimed America is training anti-Sandinista guerrillas in Honduras for raids into Nicaragua. In another development, the government expelled two Costa Rican diplomats and withdrew recognition of a third in reprisal for Costa Rica's expulsion of three Nicaraguan diplomats accused by the San Jose government of taking part in the bombing of a Honduran airlines off ice in the Costa Rican capital.
