Communities Served By Hospital Reflect Growth The patient areas served by Memorial Hospital for McHenry County is expanding, reflected in the service area figures provided in the annual report to be distributed to Memorial Hospital for McHenry County association members at the annual dinner meeting Tuesday night, Jan. 23. A growing population in the county provides part of the emphasis for this expanding service, but the two additions to the hospital completed in 1971 and 1972, respectively, con tribute to the momentum of increased patient load and services. Jack Byers, president of the Memorial Hospital for McHenry County association board of directors, has issued an invitation for all association members to attend the annual meeting at Martinetti's in Crystal Lake, starting at 7:30 p.m. However, reservations should be completed promptly if the form has not been returned, he said. A record membership of 760 belongs to ahe organization, topping the previous all-time high of 730 established during 1972. The service area is reflected in data compiled to show where inpatients and outpatients come for assistance to Memorial Hospital for McHenry County. A lo^k at the records shows that cxhirteen communities have 100 or more patients during the past fiscal year ending last Sept. 30. In terestingly, number of patients from Woodstock shows a slight decline compared with 1971-- 5,453 in 1972 compared with 5,461 in 1971. Sizable increases were noticeable in the patient load from Crystal Lake, McHenry, Huntley, Algonquin, Harvard and Cary--to name a few. Total patients served in 1972-12,583~compared with the 1971 total of 10,647.

An derson (R-Ill.) has introduced legislation to make the killing of police and firemen a federal offense and to provide a $50,000 federal payment to the sur vivors of slain police and fire officials and to those who are totally disabled. In remarks delivered on the floor of the House of Representatives, Anderson said, "There is some evidence to indicate that the New Orleans incident was deliberately contrived to lure police and firemen intolhe area and kill them. Whether this is the work of one or two deranged individuals working alone, or part of a nation wide con spiracy, the fact remains that there has been a tragic spiral in police slayings in the last few years....The time has clearly come to reverse and halt this spiral, and because these senseless acts of violence have reached national proportions, I think federal legislation is required. j Anderson indicated/he was extremely disappointed when the last Congresss failed to complete final action on similar legislation in the final days, but added, "It is my hope that the tragic happenings in New Orleans this week will impress upon us the urgency and im portance of enacting this legislation early in this session of Congress."
