The wife of a young Redmond
physician, Mrs. Betty Lou
Kapelowitz, instigated a new
"Doctors on Call" service-
recently.
Dealing as a "sort of"
broker, the servicehas signed
up about a dozen physicians to
fill in on weekends for their
colleagues who wish a week-
end off.
DOC bargains between gen-
eral practitioners and inter-
nists, primarily, according to
Mrs. Kapelowitz. Accord-
ingly, volunteers are matched
with those who want to take
off for the weekend.
Service fees are compar-
atively nominal when one looks
at those charged for a similar
service elsewhere. Local
basic rate comes to $45 per
doctor and a second physician
in the group who also wants
the service is charged$22.50.
The then doctor-on-call
is paid through fees received
from the patients he treats
and the fees are standard,
Mrs. Kapelowitz said.
Roughly half of the sub
stitute doctors' cases consist
of advising or prescribing by
telephone, which entails no
fee, she added.
The substitutes, who include
some who have completed res-
idency training, but not yet
opened their practices, must
have Washington physician's
licenses.
The list also includes
doctors who are now taking
training on extended fellow-
ships, those whohave recently
completed Army medical ser-
vice and some who formerly
practiced, but are now in other
branches of medicine.
El erly to
surveye
The Washington StateCoun-
cll on Aging will sponsor a
survey during the remainder
of July and through August to
solicit the views of KingCoun-
ty elderly in such areas as
quality of housing, economic
well-being and quality of
health care in the county.
The survey is being con-
ducted by Extended Services
for the Elderly in cooperation
with the Seattle/King County
Council on Aging, a United
Way agency. Information
gathered in the survey will be
useful to groups or organiza-
tions applying for federal
funds under Title III, IV and
VII of the Older Americans
Act.

Free firewood for home use
is now available to Redmond
residents at the Jonathan E.
Hartman Park, announced
John Couch, park director.
Construction at the park
site started this past week
and Couch has asked the con-
struction contractor to stock-
pile firewood for residents.
Sun Up Construction re-
ceived the contract forthede-
velopment project.
A permit must be obtained
at the park department office
before cutting the wood. Other
guidlines for cutting are: only
take wood from stock pile; cut
after 5 p.m. weekdays and on
Saturday and Sundays; no com-
mercial cutting; approxi-
mately two cords of wood per
family; permit must be onper-
son when cutting.
There is no charge for the
permit.
The park department office
is located at the Redmond City
Hail.

A Kirkland woman, Mrs.
Jewell Crouch, 76, is thevery
first to have apermanent arti-
ficial heart pacemaker im-
planted at the new Evergreen
General Hospitalwhich opened
Mar. 8.
An artificial pacemaker,
according to the American
Heart Association, works the
same as nature's pacemaker.
It is a small unit that uses
batteries to produce the im-
pulses needed to flow through
its tiny wires into the heart.
Installation of the pace-
maker becomes necessary
when something happens to
prevent the normal, natural
electrical impulses from
traveling along as they should,
County animal control in force
Rural King County resi-
dents are now getting long
overdue animal control ser-
vice says Bill Gerard, mana-
ger of the newly formed King
County Animal Control Divi-
sion.
The Animal Control Division
is now in full operation and
is strictly enforcing the ani-
mal licensing ordinances.
A conservative estimate
places between 60 to 80,000
dogs and an equal amount of
cats still unlicensed in King
County.
Animal control vehicles are
now being operated In the un-
incorporated areas of King
County in a rigorous drive to
pick up all stray and unli-
censed animals.
All animals taken to the
Seattle King County Animal
Shelter, 601 Elliott West can
be redeemed for $10 plus the
price of a license. Animals
at the shelter are also avail-
able for adoption.
Bill Gerard further stated
that there has been somecon-
fusion concerning the licens-
ing of pets which are being
confined to the house or in
the yard.
King County Code states that
"all dogs and cats harbored,
kept, or maintained in King
County shall be licensed an-
nually."
Persons refusing to license
their animals are in violation
and will be served a cita-
tion by the Animal Control
Division and taken to court
for failure to comply with the
ordinance, Gerard said.
For further licensing infor-
mation call 344-5209.

I love a parade
Editor
SYNews
Friday the town of Redmond
had a bodacious parade cele-
brating the opening of the
bridge.
The scheduled start was 3
p.m. - the speakers (about
101 in number) had gone over
their speaches the night before
and a good three quarters of an
hour later the ribbon was cut.
The temperature was 90 and
humid. The local undertaker
showed up late and almost
missed the cutting as well as
being introduced.
I was dressed as an Indian
prospector (because I had an
Indian wig and had borrowed
a complete rig for my pet
borro). Bosco behaved like
an angel until some kid driving
a small vintage car ran into
Bosco. Witnesses say the kid
was waving to some friends
along the curb.
This made Bosco take off
at a bodacious speed leaving
me with rope burns and great
indignation - the pack saddle
boxes had knocked me down
somewhat.
Someone gave me abeer and
an urchin called Debby caught
the borro. Debby kept saying,
"If you dieMr. Wallace, would
you let me have Bosco?"
Really made me feel good all
over,

Council, City of Redmond
Redmond, Washington
Re: The Group Health Affair
Dear Sirs:
It is with utter dismay that
from six hundred miles, I read
in the Sammamish Valley
News of the first step in the
destruction of planning in the
City of Redmond.
My objection to this circum-
vention of the intent of the land
use plan is not only as a pro-
perty owner, but as a former
citizen of Redmond who was
vitally interested and active
in developing a planning de-
partment which would guide
the council in orderly land
use planning.
At no time did we realize
that we left a "loop hole"
for the planning department,
mayor and some members of
the council to allow a com-
mercial enterprise to be de-
veloped in residential zoning.
This enterprise will gen-
erate more noise, traffic
problems and confusion than a
dozen gas stations, and I can
well remember the attitude of
some of the councilmen who
voted against gas stations in
residential zoning, but are now
voting for something less
suitable in residential zoning.
There are three valid tea-
If the council wants to do this
they should have the nerve to
rezone the area. There is
plenty of commercial zoning
in Redmond.
2. The local citizens are
the ones whose rights are
being infringed upon and it is
my understandingthat they are
totally opposed to the pro-
posal. It is easy for those not
affected to vote something un-
desirable into their neighbors
backyard. Why are those af-
fected not heard and heeded?
3. If passed, this will be
the first step in planning and
sons for defeating this pro- variance or (as in this case)
posal: conditional use. This has to be

tiit.ve is through weakness that

supports this move and we

Up Construction. Left to right are Frank Hansche, Roger
Hunt, Charles Bordaer of Sun Up, Worth Skinner of S&S

Including Army, Navy and
Air Military bases, Don
George and Company's show

tours of all types.
Viewed at a Mercer Island
Parks Department show, the
marionette show drew Miller-
ick's attention as a must for
the Redmond Bicycle Derby.
"lie and his wife (who is the
'and Company,) put on a com-
pletely professional program.
When I talked with him later,
I was amazed at the man's
ability to entertain," Miller-
ick commented.
The recreation specialist
indicated that George is also
an excellent magician. "The
whole time we were talkinghe
was making a quarter dis-
a0pear and reabpear, ,vnne-
times out of tli:-: ear,"
tle marveled.

pumping blood into the heart.
Mrs. Crouch's pacemaker
was implanted when the hos-
pital determined her heart did
not stimulate itself to beat
at a rate fast enough to keep
up with the need of her heart,
hospital personnel said.
The patient is first ob-
served in the Coronary Care
Unit, they explained, and ev-
aluated by the uniffs nursing
and physician staff. Actual
implantation was accom-
plished through the co-
ordinated efforts of a cardio-
logist, surgeon, radiologist
and anaesthesiologist.
According to hospital
spokeswoman Mary Leber,
publicity of the operating doc-
tors "has fallen under a lot
of controversy," and doctors
decline to have their names
in print as associated with
their performance.
"There are a lot of strong
feelings about this," Mrs.
Leber said. "Doctors have
been accused of headline-
making and it violates their
professional ethics."
Mrs. Crouch, who lives at
518 Second St., was released
one week after her recent
operation, SVNews was told.
Many patients, however, may
leave after an overnight stay.
The patient is thoroughly
observed by the coronary care
staff beginning immediately
following the operation, to en-
sure proper functionbeforehe
is released to a fullhomelife,
the hospital said.
Shortly after what is des-
cribed as "minor" surgery,
Mrs. Crouch told SVNews she
was somewhat incapacitated,
but was hoping to "reach the
part of the ladder they des-
cribed in write-ups in the
papers."
At 76, however, she seemed
pretty chipper, even though
her' 'husband was doing all the
housework. I'm just follow-
ing directions," she said,
"and doing everything they tell
me to.'"
According to the hospital,
her prognosis is excellent.
