Quality Control. So are the problems, unless strict standards are set by the Social Security Administration. Benjamin Burton, of the National Institute of Arthritis and Metabolic Diseases, believes that review boards should be established to evaluate the nature and quality of treatment provided kidney patients in hospitals and private facilities. He also feels that they should determine which patients are suitable candidates for either dialysis or transplants. (Dialysis was ruled out for former President Harry Truman, for example, because doctors felt it would not appreciably improve his condition.) Without such monitoring, abuses could jeopardize efforts to extend similar coverage...
While Prager practiced his parallels in Colorado, his fellow reporters were scrutinizing other terrain. Los Angeles Correspondent Sandra Burton, a skier since her Middlebury College days in Vermont a decade ago, visited mountain resorts in New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho.

Five years later Dr. Burton sent it to Sotheby Parke Bernet, where it was auctioned with the rest of his collection last month. It was knocked down for $250,000. Thus far the script looks banal-"Impressionism for Fun and Profit." But the painting was not by an Impressionist, nor even by a European. It was Steelworkers -Noontime, by Thomas Anshutz, and its price established an auction record...
