Ambulance service talk revived in Frankfort Mokena area
A closed door Frankfort meeting revived an 18 month old proposal for an area ambulance service. Silver Cross hospital favored the plan but stressed it would not run the service, while concerns over crisis response time and life support fueled discussions about a stationed emergency vehicle. Finances also surfaced as a potential motive for Silver Cross, with talk that patients are being diverted to Olympia Fields Osteopathic Medical Center.

Indian Trail six classroom addition on schedule but opening risks
Construction of Indian Trail school six classroom addition is on schedule for a possible early August completion, but Summit Hill administrators doubt it will be ready for a fall 1983 opening. Supt. Aldo Fanti calls the project moving well, though furniture and equipment setup could delay the start of the school year. The addition will house about 180 students. The board also settled a $15,000 student-injury suit, reported energy renovations at Arbury Hills near completion, and accepted bids for student meals and milk for 1983-84.
