City Hospital boasts Nuclear Medicine Unit McHenry hospital has become one of the few institutions in the country to have an equipped de­ partment of nuclear medicine. The department is furnished with the latest and most up-tor date equipment available in this relatively "new" area of med­ icine. Nuclear medicine is the ap­ plication of radioactive mat­ erials to the diagnosis, the treatment of patients, and the study of human disease. The department will offer the community many new and so- 1 .1 -•» r, l ' I ' N,f I I : V : I I r |or s I Pictured above are the first two customers of OSCO DRUG'S new Parmaceutical department.

Nuclear diagnostic pro­ cedures are often less "trau­ matic" for the patient than the usual methods. The use of radioactive iso­ topes will enable doctors to de­ tect possible tumors and cysts earlier thus, aiding in the pre­ vention and spreading of cancer and other diseases. In this yet early development of nuclear medicine, almost 10 per cent of all diagnostic procedures employing radiation involves the isotope technique. It can be expected that this per­ centage will double or triple in the coming decade. The ad­ dition of this new department at McHenry hospital will aid in giving the community the most current services available in this expanding field of med­ icine.

League Joins in National Voting Rights Campaign with the "Year of the Voter" as its theme, the League of Wo­ men Voters of Woodstock-Mc- Henry has announced that it will join the League of Women Vo­ ters of the United States in spearheading a national voting rights campaign. According to Mrs. Daniel Weisz, president of the local league, the drive will be designed to emphasize the franchise as the basis of American democracy and to remove the remaining inequi­ ties in the nation's electoral system. "There is still much unfin­ ished business before we can reach the goal of full particU pation in the democratic pro­ cess," Mrs. Bruce Benson, president of the national Lea­ gue, told a meeting of nineteen major organizations which were asked to participate in the drive. These organizations, and many other national and local groups who will be briefed on the "Year of the Voter" pro­ gram, are being asked to "do their own thing*' in the non­ partisan effort. "This means," said Mrs. Weisz, "that those who are concerned during the coming year with strengthening the franchise, will have a framework in which to operate more effectively." - The league, which celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in 1970, decided to launch this public service activity rather than spend its time on "self-con­ gratulatory birthday evettts". For 160,000 league members in 1,300 communities, the "Year of the Voter" will also be an opportunity to commem­ orate the fiftieth anniversary of woman suffrage (19th Amend­ ment) and the one-hundreth an­ niversary of Negro suffrage (15th Amendment). The campaign culminates on Nov. 3, 1970, when thirty-four senators, 435 congressmen, thirty governors and thousands of other state and local offic­ ials will be elected. "If pub­ lic and private groups across the country support this effort," said Mrs. Wiesz, "we can have the largest off-year election in history." A special "Year of the Vo­ ter" logo-type for use during the anniversary year was com­ missioned by the league from New York graphics designer Beau Gardner. It will appear on publications, letterheads, postage-meter dies, newslet­ ters and other community print media, TV spots and League Vo­ ters Service materials which are distributed throughout the U.S. The logotype will also be a central visual element in pro­ motional materials produced specifically for the fiftieth an­ niversary, such as buttons, bumper stickers and shopping bags. "The national league Is giv­ ing the logotype and background material," said Mrs. Weisz, "to all organizations who be­ lieve the rfeht to vote is the cornerstone of American dem­ ocracy. Others are free to a- dopt the "Year of the Voter" logo as their own. Since inten­ tionally, it embodies no visual elements identifying it with the league, it should prove effec­ tive for a variety of purposes and organizations." The President, members of Congress and governors will be asked to consider special federal, state and local efforts supporting the " Year of the Vo­ ter", and the cooperation of business and labor cQmmunities will also be sought. The first formal action taken by the league in 1970 is a an­ nouncement of a new national position in favor of the direct popular election of the Pres­ ident and Vice-President and the abolishment of the present electoral college system. The action, taken by the lea­ gues national board of direc­ tors, marks the beginning of a national effort for a Constitu­ tional Amendment establishing a direct election method. The league position also includes provisions for a run-off elec­ tion in the event that no can­ didate receives more than 40 per cent of the votes cast. Mrs. Benson Stated: "The de­ cision to work for direct elec- PG. 10 - PLAINDEALER FRIDAY, FEB. 6* 197a tion of the President is based on & clear-cut from lo* cal leagues in allfsectiohs of the country and stems from eighteen months of study and discussion by League mem­ bers." Mrs. Benson reported that of over 1,000 leagues register­ ing an opinion in the consen­ sus making process, 78 per cent were in support of the direct election method. Mrs. James Miyashiro, chairwoman of the Woodstock-McHenry electoral college study, reports that local concensus favored the direct election process. Only four lea­ gues favored retaining the pre­ sent system.
