...committee's findings at Northampton State Hospital were typical. "The staff, especially the weekend staff, served as mere custodians. They had been given no sense of the worth of their jobs and they had no treatment to offer. In such places," says Ackermann, "very often no one even knows who is in charge." It is the children, patients and inmates who inevitably suffer most in these environments...

There will be no hot water from 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Full service will be resumed after that but it is adyisable not to use the laundry facilities in Matthews or Holworthy for the duration of the weekend.

The Brewers are the principal beneficiaries of the home-towner's El Foldo act, and could pull within a half-game of first place if they sweep the three-game set. Watch for Cecil Cooper, erstwhile Bosox first-baseman who went out to Diaryland in the infamous George "Two-Outs-for-the-Price-of-One" Scott trade, to do some heavy-duty slugging, making the Sox management wish they...
