Dr. William Story, medical
director of the Radiology
Department, said a new GE 600
Senographe, state-of-the-art

Battering leading cause
of injuries to CC women
Sharon Blanton, shelter
manager for the Cleveland
County Abuse Prevention
Council, said battering is the
leading cause of injury to wom-
en in this country, even in
Cleveland County.
"There is no safe haven al-
though since fall of 1985 the
county has opened a shelter
which is too small to accommo-
date the growing demand of
women and children," she said
in her remarks before the
American Legion Auxiliary
Thursday.
Jeannie Patterson, Child
Protective Services investigator
for the Cleveland County
Department for Social Services,
also a program speaker, said
battered spouses is a timely top- -
ic in light of the current tele-
vised trial underway of O.J.
Simpson.
Patterson said that two mil-
lion women are battered every
year in this country by their
spouses or boyfriends. A March
of Dimes study revealed that
battering during pregnancy was
the leading cause of birth de-
fects and infant mortality.
Patterson said such violence
was once thought to be the
plague solely of married women
but battering, like date rape, is
affecting young, single women
more and more.
Patterson said that one in five
college students is the victim of
physical aggression, ranging
from slapping and hitting to
more life threatening violence.

ternity party by a young man
who had too much to drink and
she turned him down and ad-
vised him not to drive. The
young man waited for her out-
side and beat her up, to teach
her a lesson, he said.
Susan, not her real name,
went home for her first break
from college and told her high
school sweetheart that she
wanted to date on campus. In
response, he pulled out clumps
of her hair, broke her arm and
drove her car into a tree.
After Bonnie, not her real

college, he sneaked into her
