The charge will be 50 cents per person. First on the program will be a dance demonstration to help you understand more clearly what modern dance is; how the dancer can use his instrument, the body, to communicate various ideas, thoughts, and moods through movement, the dancers medium of communication. This demonstration will feature Ruth Hoyt, Ilene Harmon, Pat Andrus, and Sherrie Thomas. Also dancing are Judy Squires, Diane Schmutz, Carol Lar- sen, Margaret Truman, Barbara Atkin, Brenda Bracken, Karen Blake, Karen Cox, Rosemary Truman, Karen Barnum, Diane Walters, Sue Leavitt, Elizabeth Thomson, a nd Nancy Wade, all members of the Dixie College Our e Advertisers Dixie Studio Camera Shop Es-pli- e Aged Doug Drake interviewed Mrs Albert Lang of the Lang rest home on medical aid for the aged.

Arena Style Play Started Feb. 16 be-Fin- ' just what the government means when the bill for medical aid for the aged is spoken about, but I do know that the plan they (the aged) have now ls 'er-- inadequate and that the aged people are very much in need of some sort of plan that will give our older people and unfortunate disabled people better medical care, and if this bill is the answer to that need, or even a step in that direction, it should cer-- j tainly be brought into effect. According to Andy Borgeson, Mr. A. Karl Larson, history and political science instructor at Dixie College and vv ell known author, believes that it would be a good thing if this bill were passed, since most of the older citizens to whom it would apply are of a lower income bracket. As people get older, he points out, they are more prone to sickness and injury. This causes medical expenses to increase rap-- i idly. Medical aid, included with social security, he hopes, will be the answer to the sickness expense problem It is Mr. Larsons opinion that, although no doctor would refuse help to anyone if he needed it, whether young or old, rich or poor the aged have their pride too and would like to have their medical debts paid off as much as anyone if they havent the money then that is where social security, which they are entitled to, should come into the picture. Of course, states Mr. Larson, everything has its flaws and loopholes, and this program would be no different. However, people as a whle are honest and wouldnt take advantage of something set up to help them out He remembers that there was similar opposition to the Social Security Act. But, he asks, what congress would dare or even have the deure to repeal it now? With time people will come to appreciate medical aid for the aged for the worthwhile thing that it is. 91 o ; 1 Keepsake HEATHER 350.00 Eng agement Ring Aho 1100 to 247 |
