MEMORIAL I have been informed that a former resident of McCullom Lake, LaVerne Schmitt, has passed away in Arizona. The Roy Schmitt family moved to Arizona in September of last year, where it was hoped that LaVerne's condition would take a turn for the better. Un- fortunateljs, it wasn't to be so, and she died Jan. 6. In addition to her husband, Roy, LaVerne left two children, Charlie and Ix)ri Ann. Someone else has passed away recently, also, someone few of you probably knew, but \ who was very close to my heart. My mother, Dolores Williams, died Jan. 23. She was only 51 years old. but she had lived a hard, full life, and she must have been more tired than even she knew. She never woke up that Sunday morning, but her memory will live in the hearts of many forever.

Radiologist Addition To City Hospital More Welfare Cheaters Prosetuted: Prediction State Senator Jack Schaffer, R-Cary, a member of the Legislative Advisory com mittee on Public aid, said a recent decision by the Illinois Supreme court could produce a significant increase in the number of welfare cheaters prosecuted as law breakers. Schaffer said a decision handed down by the high court in the case of Louise Brooks, et al vs the State of Illinois paves the way for prosecution of nearly all welfare cheaters under provisions of either the state Public Aid code or the Illinois Criminal code. Essentially, the court ruled that anyone who fraudulently obtains -welfare can be prosecuted for a misdemeanor under the Public Aid code, without the necessity of proving the intent to defraud. When intent can be proven, cheaters can be charged with a felony under provisions of the Criminal code. This means, "for example, that a person who fails to report income from employment without necessarily realizing the legal requirement to do so, could be prosecuted under the Public Aid code and that Public PAGE 5 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9. l»77 Aid funds they were not legally entitled to could hopefully be returned to the state. On the other hand, an individual shown to have deliberately obtained welfare fraudulently, such as through the use of aliases or false addresses, can be prosecuted under the Criminal code.

What's the cause of this?" Scriptural authority is the essential question in Christian>^-rE' ity and must be answered be- foie any other questions can be discussed How we view the Bible will determine how v/j*- answer questions about God. Jesus, miracies. heaven or hell, sin, or any other Christian subject. What are the Scriptures? Are they the verbally inspired, infallible word of God, or are they just a work of ordinary man? Were they written by men just like you and me „ with no special insight or abil ity? Or is the Bible maybe a patchwork of inspired and un- spired works? One view says that there is some absolute truth in the Bible, but there is also much error. Hundreds of books have been written to try and indi cate which portions of the Scriptures are true and which ones are not; which ones are inspired and which aren't. The major advantage of this view is that what we don't under stand or what is too difficult to comply with is usually con sidered uninspired. The major problem with this view is that one must play God in order to decide which portions of the Scriptures are inspired or are not inspired. To be continued.

Gemell, M.D., president of the Medical-Dental staff. Dr. Neis is a graduate of the Stritch School of Medicine, Ix>yola university, and served his internship and residency in radiology at St. Francis hospital, Evanston. The hospital's radiology department, which opened last Nov. 1 under the chairmanship of radiologist Hayim Rodrik, M.D., is open and staffed twenty-four hours daily for d i a g n o s t i c r a d i o l o g i c examinations. Administrative radiologic technologist Dewey Lytle, ARRT, supervises a staff of ten radiologic technologists: John Affiriito, ARRT; Barbara Caley, ARRT; LeRoy Cooper, ARRT; Denise Dombroski, ARRT; Carol Esposito, ARRT. Also Katherine Mazzoni, ARRT; Catherine Miley, ARRT; Mary Noonan, ARRT; Mary Wasilowski, ARRT; and L i n d a W i l l i a m s , A R R T . Clerical personnel are Joyce Kuczwara, secretary; Lucille Hahn, clerk typist; and Vicky Turley, receptionist. The new department is ad jacent to the hospital's Bollman pavilion for orthopedic patients and is convenient to the emergency department. It serves outpatients as well as inpatients. Among innovations being utilized by the department are the DuPont "daylight system" which replaces the traditional darkroom system; float-top tables which minimize moving of the patient; and the vertical- tilt bucky, which permits the technologist to obtain variously positioned radiographs with the least discomfort to the patient. tadiology is a service working in support of all depart m<nyt£> emergency, surgery, medicine, maternity, pediatrics, and orthopedics," commented LeRoy E. Olsen, president of the board of directors. "Therefore, we believe that our goal of con stantly improving patient care necessitates a radiology department with sophisticated equipment and outstanding personnel.
