A New York Times analysis from Palo Alto notes the fading youth cult and shifting attitudes among students and non students. It highlights calmer activism, increased study, local actions, and a move from grand social upheaval to individual quality of life and personal solutions. The piece cites Stanford, Dartmouth, Wisconsin, Oberlin, Harvard, and Ohio State as examples of this broad trend.

Turnabout on Bill by Medicare
An 80 year old pensioner in Maquoreta says Medicare reversed a $1621 hospital bill two years after paying it. John Wantz claims the action is unconstitutional and that he was led to believe the bill had been settled when his wife Lola died after 98 of 100 eligible extended care days. Medicare later rescinded the payment, withholding $1601 from a monthly hospital check.

Monticello Fracas Deemed No Big Deal By Chief
Monticello Police Chief John Cook described a Saturday night disturbance at the station as minor and blown out of proportion. Officers from Cascade and Anamosa assisted early on after a fracas with youths, with one intoxication arrest reported and the investigation deemed complete. Cook declined to name the arrestee and said the incident could have been managed without outside help. He denied an officer was beaten, noting only that one officer forgot to duck.
