Costlier Rib
RICHMOND, Va.. (AP> ? The
pi ice squeeze appears to be on
the squeeze price according to hos

a 50-year-old Richmond woman $13
for repairs to a cracked rib she
I received when hugged too en
tnusiastically by her husband. And
now the hospital reports a 48-year
old woman has been treated for
' the same trouble, caused the same
S way. But her bill was $18.
