FOURTH PLACE Union captures consolation trophy in Glass AA tourney "It was like shooting the ball at the bleachers", commented Union high's center, Milo Whitehead, as he commented about the beautiful new Marriot Center in which the state Class AA tournament was held during the past weekend. The large glass bankboards were absolutely clear, and the players reported that as they shot, it seemed that all they could see were the bleachers behind the bank-boarThe Union Cougars did come up with the consolation championship in the AA division, which is the first time a Union team has ever won that honor.

This program is a unique federal effort. It recognized that physicians at the local and state level are best suited to judge quality and appropriateness of care. Individual PSRO's will be established and operated by local physicians, although the Federal government will py the oprating costs. A number of PSRO's are expeted to be designated and set into opralion by the end of this fiscal year," President Nixon said. The Chief Executive called the program "a unique federal effort," and proposed to expand the scope of it to cover all health care throughout the nation. Thu program establishes a system of locally run physician organizations, called Professional Standard Review Organizations (PSRO's), to review the quality and effectiveness of medical care delivered under health federally-sponsore- programs.

Also, the signatures must be those of county residents who are registered voters and must be witnessed by a Notary Public. We must have these petitions delivered to the county clerk Friday, March 15, 1974.
