Music Program Set On Saturday night at the 8 p.m. music worship service at the Rae ford Presbyterian Church the con gregation will be transported back through the periods of time to the age when knighthood was in flower, kings and queens ruled the land, and America was considered the land just over the edge of the world.

These ANNUAL Kiwanis Pancake Supper Thursday, December 8th 5 until 8 p.m. 1.75 per person Proceeds to promote various youth programs sponsored by Kiwanis instruments are made in much the same manner as the recorders of previous ages. Each recorder has its own range of notes much like a singer in a choir, thus the need for a soprano and tenor recorder for an ensemble. The only detail that has been changed is the use of a guitar as an accompaniment rather than a lute. "I have been hoping for many months to get something new in the music program of the church," says Chris Watkins, Director of Music at the Raeford Presbyterian Church. "I believe that this record er ensemble will bring back some of the most beautiful music that the early church musicians ever wrote and the congregation will gain a deeper appreciation for the simple, yet elegant music of the Renais sance Age."

The Cardinal Health Agency Board of Directors held a public meeting in Lumberton Nov. 30 to consider its application for full designation as the Health Systems Agency for southeastern North Carolina. The Cardinal Planning Com mittee presented the revised Annual Implementation Plan for board approval. Revisions reflect comments received since a draft of the plan was placed on public view in Oct. The public meeting was held in the Board Room of the Southern National Bank Building in Lum berton. The complete application for full designation will be available for examination at the Cardinal Health Agency office here during Dec. The application will include the Annual Implementation Plan and the long - range Health Systems Plan adopted by the board in August. The public is invited to submit written comments on the applica tion. Department of Health, Education and Welfare (DHEW) regulations require that such com ments be attached to the appli cation. particularly observations about the composition and qualifications of the Board of Directors. The Cardinal board may, at its discretion, incorporate suggestions from the public by revising the application when final action is taken Jan. 4, 1978. Cardinal Health Agency has been conditionally designated by the secretary of DHEW to serve 15 southeastern North Carolina coun ties since July, 1976. More than 200 Health Systems Agencies are being established across the country under the "National Health Plan ning and Resources Development Act of 1974", Public Law 93-641. The law requies that a majority of the members of the governing body be health care consumers. At least 40 percent must be health care providers representing physicians; institutions, like hospitals and nursing homes; health insurer and allied health professions. Some of the providers or consumers, but no more than one third of the board membership, must also be public officials. Cardianl has 30 members on its board, representing the 15 counties by population. One of the agency's first tasks was to establish a Health Systems Plan containing a detailed descrip tion of the health of the population in the area and the health care systems serving the area. The plan also presents 36 long - range goals aimed at improving the popula tion's health and the health care systems. The Annual Implementation Plan is a one - year community work program addressing the 10 goals given the highest priority by 'the Cardinal board. Four task forces composed of citizens from all 15 of the counties helped design the action plans set forth in the plan. For the past year. Cardinal has also served as the reviewing agency for capital expenditure projects (expansion of hospitals, nursing homes, etc.) to determine if they qualify for federal reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid. This responsibility coincides with a major purpose of the law. con trolling the escalating cost of health care. As a conditionally designated agency. Cardinal's recommenda tions on proposed capital expendi tures have gone on to state and federal offices for final action. As a fully designated Health Systems Agency, the Cardinal board will have the responsibility of approving or disapproving pro posals that involve the use of federal funds. The application to DHEW will also include standards and critieria for project review, a policy for administering an Area Health Services Development Fund and Technical Assistance policies, under which Cardinal can help implement its development respon sibilities. Other parts of the application include the agency's proposed work program, financial management 0 policies and specific provisions for public information and public involvement. A. A.
