: Social Security Beginning July 1, Medicare can help pay for limited chiropractor's services under Medial Insurance, but only under certain conditions, ac­ cording to William Biscomb, Social Security branch manager in Woodstock. Biscomb pointed out that the chiropractor must be licensed or legally authorized to furnish chiropractor services by the state and also meet federal standards in order to qualify for payment of eligible services by Medicare. In addition, he said, "We want to emphasize that coverage of chiropractor's services under Medicare is very limited.

No payment can be made for any other kind of chiropractic treatment or for any diagnostic services by the chiropractor, such as x-rays or laboratory tests." A sublixation is defined as an incomplete dislocation, off-centering, misalignment, fixation or abnormal spacing of the vertebrae. Mr. Biscomb asked that beneficiaries with any questions about chiropractic coverage get in touch with their Social Security office. For many new cars, the outgo for upkeeep is greater than the owner's income. FAT OVERWEIGHT The Odrinex Plan can help you become the slim trim person that you would like to be.

Morin of Pistakee Highlands at which Cime Tom was presented his Eagle award the highest award a scout can ever earn and only 1 percent of all Boy Scouts ever achieve it. Tom is a member of Troop 128, All Saints Lutheran church in Spring Grove. This was also the first Eagle for Scout Troop 128. The ceremony was opened with the presentation of the colors |ollowed by the invocation by Joe Tranellis, advancement chairman, Troop 128. A brief introduction was given by Scoutmaster Tom Kusmerz followed by Tom's history of scouting given by a friend and fellow scouter. (Tom is 16 years old and this is his eighth year in scouting.) The presentation of the Eagle award was given by Dale Mc­ Dowell, assistant district chairman, Blackhawk area council, preceded by a short and very inspring speech which kept people torn between tears and laughter. Tom and his mother, Mrs. Audrey Morin, were given a standing ovation on a job more than well done. The scout charge was read by Bill Grogg, district chairman, the Scout letter was read by Jerry Heindl, district executive. The Eagle certificate was presented by Tom Kusmerz, Scoutmaster Troop 128. Tom also received a Legion award from the McHenry county American Legion by Rev. Massey. A surprise to Tom and everyone came when a newly formed scholarship fund was awarded by Henry Sowiak, Assistant Scoutmaster Troop 128 in the amount of $500 to be used for his future education. This fund was recently started by a company which wishes to remain anonymous and is a yearly grant for a deserving boy from the troop. A concluding speech by Tom consisted of "I just don't know what to say". "God Bless America" was then sung and the colors retired. Here & There In Business Four Seasons Gift Shop-New Area Business Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Palmer have opened a new business, Palmer's Four Seasons Gift shop, at 2604 Johnsburg road. The Palmers have made their home in Johnsburg for the last thirty vears. Wanda Palmer came tdthe community in 1936 with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. Jeppe Jep- sen. "Mr. Palmer is a native of Crystal Lake. NOW Applauds Walker Action "Governor Dan Walker has taken a giant step toward opening more jobs in state government for women and minorities by announcing the implementation of an af­ firmative action program," said Judith Longmeyer, president of the McHenry county chapter of the National Organization for Women. "NOW applauds the Governor's initiative in this area," continued Ms. Longmeyer,' "and,urges both local government and private businesses to follow the Governor's lead." The Governor has called for the establishment of a state­ wide Affirmative Action prograrg by Aug. 31, 1973. The program provides for an in­ creased female and minority representation of the state work force including specific goals, methods and timetables. In addition, the program will permit the structuring of up­ ward mobility in jobs for women and minorities. The state, with 115,000 employees, ranks as the largest employer in Illinois. Health Unit Recommerids Medical Plan Approval --! z The clofk strikes many times, every week, but still keeps it hands working. LICENSE VIOLATION While on routine patrol early Saturday morning, deputies observed an auto being driven on Arabian drive, at Palamino drive, east of McHenry, with no rear license plate light. The vehicle was stopped to warn the driver and it was discovered the driver's license had ex­ pired. William Weingart of 1410 N. Francis street, McHenry, was arrested for driving with no valid driver's license. Bond was set at $60 and court ap­ pearance set for July 23. The Comprehensive Health Planning Agency for McHenry County has announced that it has reviewed the McHenry County-Western Lake County Emergency Medical Services plan and has recommended its approval by the Illinois Department of Public Health. The emergency medical services plan was put together by the three community hospitals in McHenry county in order to comply with the State of Illinois ̂ Hospital Licensing act. j In majking this an­ nouncement, John Garrett, president i of CHPA, em­ phasized the overall quality of the plan. "The plan is a formidable document that indicates a sincere interest on the part of the participating hospitals to both comply With the law and to actively improve the quality of the emergency medical ser­ vices in McHenry county", stated Garrett. In other actions taken by the board of directors, three grant applications proposed by the McHenry County Department of Health were recommended for funding. The applications had been made to the Illinois Department of Public Health for general operating funds and a special purpose grant for a venereal disease program. "These recommendations were made," said Garrett," because the county Depart­ ment of Health's capabilities to deliver necessary services would be seriously curtailed without the funds that would be generated by these ap­ plications". The next meeting of the CH­ PA for McHenry county will be held Wednesday, July 25, at 8 p.m., at the Pioneer Center for the Exceptional Community Living facility, 1001 McHenry avenue, Woodstock. BASEBALL * * • By Pete f ritchie WASHINGTON, D.C.-Th- national capital is apparent­ ly to have Major League basebali again, but it's c b o t c h e d u p a r r a n g e m e n t . A local group has negotiated the transfer of the San Diego Pauses--a National League team! How odd it is for Wash­ ington, an American League town in recent decades, to regain baseball in the wrong league. All the recent his­ tory of play against the Yankees, nearby Baltimore, Boston, Detroit anc the other old American League foes is thus to go by the boards--unless. The unless is the possi­ bility that inter-ieagu^ play be initiated in the near fu­ ture, a possibility now un­ der study. If that is to be, then perhaps the switch to the National League (the more successful in attract­ ing fans) will not be so illog- cal after all. San Diego fans haven't supported the Padres suffi­ ciently to keep the team in the black. Washington, so owner Bob Short said, didn't support his team there enough to enable him to re­ main in the capital. So it. moved. The question, then, is whether this is a full stop or a stopover for the Padres. WASHINGTON, D.C.--The Senate Commerce Committee recently held hearings to determine how the federal government could bring ordei and efficiency to amateur sports In this country. Badly needed is federal authority to stop the endless squabbling between the Na­ tional Collegiate Athletic ' Association and the Amateur Athletic Union, to set up an organization to give all am­ ateurs a chance to compete in 01ympi<2,trials. Also needed is funding for various amateur groups and clubs, which sponsor tournaments, elimination events and other contests H Jhe LUtheI! recently eWed a bik<> hike to Veterans Acres in Crystal ih. naHc Th a k ̂ ^ ? u I piCmC was enj°yed by everyone. Following the activities at the park, the group biked back to the church. Sponsors for the group included Lee and Joanne Mai Earl and Lynette Trier, Les and Madge Carlson, Harold and ihirley KMey with assisLTe from Intern Michael Foss and Pastor Roger W. Schneider. PAGE 7-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1973 which attract amateur ath­ letes. The United States, which once won the Olympic Games regularly, now come^ in second to the Soviet Union regularly--because the na­ tion lacks anffiejent, well- funded organization to put together the best possible American team from open competition. Four sports bills are be­ fore the committee; enact­ ment of a good one, this year, is a must if this na­ tion is to have an amateur sports program the equal to those in many other coun­ tries today. •(SPECIAL VALUABLE COUPON)!
