The typing competion will oc-
cur at the state and national lev-
els. Each participating school will
select one student to represent it
in the state championship. The
typing test for this level of compe-
tition will be administered by
designated business education
teachers at each school. All offi-
cal entrants will be awarded cer-
tificates of participation. The win-
ner from each state will receive an
AEG Olymia electronic portable
typewriter, a certificate of award
and the opportunity to compete
against other state champions in
the national championship.
The competition for the na-
tional championship will take place
in April at each contestant’s school
and will be performed on AEG
Economic factors that are
putting basic health care out of
reach for millions of Americans
are presenting new challenges for
physicians committed to serving
the common good, a medical eth-
icist writes in the January issue of
Texas Medicine.
Ronald A. Carson, Ph.D., says
physicians must be ready to meet
this social responsibility by help-
ingdevisea "more inclusive, more
responsive health-care system."
"Traditions of service run deep
in medicine and are still very much
alive in the practice of personal
medical care," Dr. Carson, direc-
tor of the Institute for Medical
Humanities at the University of
Texs Medical Branch at Galveston,
writes in the Texas Medicine ar-
ticle. Texas Medicine is the offi-
cial news magazine of the Texas
Olympia typewriters supplied by
AEG Olympia. The test will in-
clued a timed writing and a timed
production test of standard busi-
ness letter, a tabulation from rough
draft, and a full-page memoran-
dum.
Students in the national cham-
pionship competitoin will com-
ete for cash awards of S500 for the
designated national champion,
$350 for the 1st runner-up and
$200 for the 2nd runner-up.
The contest is sponsored by
AEG Olympia, Somerville, New
Jersey, a leading marketer of elec-
tronic typewriters for the school,
home and office. AEG Olympia
distributes its products through a
national network of franchised
AEG Olympia dealers.
A spokesman for AEG Olym-
pia stated that more than five
thousand high schools from across
the nation are represented in the
contest.

Despite the tradition of serv-
ice, Dr. Carson says medicine’s
"identity as a caring profession is
beset" by factors such as advanced
technology, which creates barri-
ers between doctors and patients,
and rising health-care costs. He
says government efforts to con-
trol those costs "puts doctors in
the dubious role of keeper of the
purse."
"Even when physicians feel
sympathy and generosity for the
least of those among the sick,
current incentives urge them to
hold back," Dr. Carson says. "Need
is the key criterion, not ability to
pay. Here is where medicine’s
tradition of serving the well-being
of the whole community is being
called upon anew."
will attend this meeting to learn
how to dress and camp for very
cold weather. Then, this week-
end, our Scouts will get to prac-
tice Mr. Bear’s cold weather
camping training at the Freez-O-
Ree mentioned above. Next month
our Scouts will get more cold
weather camping practice at an-
other Freeze-O-Ree.
Next Wednesday night our
Scouts will hold their Hobby Fair

ist Church. Everybody is invited
for an evening of fun and interest-
ing hobby presentations. On the

Yessir! January is a busy month
for Scouting. A whole month of
learning, adventures, camping, and
pure fun! But, that’s Scouting.
The month of January has been
and will continue to be a very busy
month for Cotulla’s Boy Scout
Troop 150. For the past three
troop meetings our Scouts have
been working on their demon-
strations in getting ready for their
open-to-the-public Hobby Fair and
working up their menus for this
weekend’s Two Feather District’s
Freez-O-Ree. At last night’s Troop
meeting our Scouts elected their
new boy leaders who will serve in
both Troop and Patrol leadership
positions for the next 6-month
period. The results of those elec-
tions will be announced in next
week’s Scouting article.
Tonight Assistant Scoutmas-
ter Bob Bear will present the
Scouting program at our Four
Rivers District Roundtable in
Pleasanton. Adult Scout leaders
from all of the Troops located in
Atascosa, Frio, Karnes, La Salle,
McMullen and Wilson counties
