Quick City Residents Getting Another Try Residents of the Quick City community north of Warrenton are getting another chance at re vitalization of their neighborhood thanks to Warren County commis sioners who last Wednes day night voted to target the area in their applica tion for a $750,000 state Community Develop ment Block Grant. The grant is funded by the N.C. Department of Natural Resources and Community Develop ment (NRCD). The coun ty had planned to apply for a grant for Quick Ci ty revitallzation last year, but recdpt of a $750,000 grant for use by Owens-Illinois, Inc. precluded the county's application for another grant that fiscal year. The grant application, which was prepared with the assistance of a team from St. Augustine's Col lege in Raleigh, indicates that 25 of the 32 occupied residential dwellings in Quick City are substan dard and in need of renovation. If approved, the grant would also fund removal of blighted structures and upgrading of water lines and installation of sewer lines to the area. The board also voted to contribute $10,000 to the project, as an indication of the county's faith in the application's merits. Although county of ficials are optimistic about prospects for fun ding, they have also warned that competition from applications throughout the state could be keen. Among the most ser ious problems in th< Quick City area that could be corrected witt grant funding are out breaks of sewage in residential areas, i problem which has con ceraed county health of fleers. Hospital (Continued from page 1) currently operating at the hospital, and com missioners hope to have a decision on a perma nent health care service at the hospital by the end of August. Roye, who noted that Warren General was just one of many small, rural hospitals faced with go ing out of business or changing their mode of health care, said he was impressed by Communi ty Memorial's proposal. '"Rieir proposal seems closest to what you need," he commented. "And I am terribly im pressed with the man agement there." Roye also touched on the dilemma of county hospitals trying to com pete with private hospitals. "The current wave of county hospitals going to private boards has been brought about because hospitals need to be free of county control to engage in enterprises to offset the losses of Medicare and Medi caid," Roye said. HealthCo Executive Director Phil Williams expressed concern that the Community Mem orial proposal failed to provide for obstetrical or general surgery pat ients. "What is this proposal doing in terms of those patients?" Williams ask ed. "I don't see anything different here." Mrs. Clayton noted that further negotiations would be necessary before a final proposal Budget Helpers To stretch the budget in 1984, half of consumers sur veyed say they did more do it-yourself projects, bought more generics, entertained more at home, ate out less and cut back on credit.

"We know we cannot run a hospital," she said. "We must be willing to work to see what kind of arrangement we can im plement. Two years ago, we weren't running a hospital either; we had one, but we weren't mi ning it. We must take a different approach." Warrenton Town Com missioner Eddie Clay ton, a member of the citizens advisory com mittee, commented that the offer by Community Memorial merited serious consideration. "They're not going to come here and cure all our problems," Clayton said. "But they'll help us if we help ourselves."
