Care Flight takes first patient
By COLLEEN SIEBES
The University of Kansas Medical Center's new airplane ambulance, Care Flight, transported its first patient to the Med Center on Friday.
Bruce Johnson, Care Flight operations director, said the flight ran smoothly. The air-to-ground communications and the in-flight requests for additional medications worked well, he said.
The patient, Margaret Ferguson, 33. Ellinwood, was down by Care Flight from the Central Kansas Medical Center in Great Bend to the downtown Kansas City airport. She was then flown to the Med Center by the Med Center's helicopter, Life Flight. Care Flight is based in Great Bend.
Ferguson was in an automobile accident in which she
received a dislocated hip, a dislocated knee and facial wounds. She was in stable condition before leaving the Central Kansas Medical Center on Friday night and was listed in fair condition yesterday.
Care Flight was ready two weeks ago to begin transporting seriously ill or injured patients to the Med Center from other Kansas hospitals.
A Med Center official quoted Ferguson from her bed in the Intensive Care Unit as saying, "The people on the plane and here were very kind, and I couldn't believe how fast the flight was."
Marlin Rein, associate hospital administrator, said Care Flight was a response to a concern expressed by physicians across the state that the present patient air transportation system was inadequate.
Protester gets out of jail on promise
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A nuclear arms protester serving a prison term for damaging a missile silo was released yesterday after he told a federal judge he would not break the law again
Martin J. Holladay, 31, was serving on eight year prison term for damaging a Minuteman II missile silo with a hammer and chisel. He was sentenced May 16, 1985 for damaging
the silo near Odessa in western Missouri in February 1895.
U. S. District Judge Elmo Hunter ordered Holladay released immediately and said he could go back home to Vermont. Hunter said that during a conference in his chambers Holladay admitted that he did not realize the man would be given such a stiff prison sentence for his actions.
Holladay was one of nine protesters serving sentences ranging from seven years to 18 years for
damaging missile silos in Missouri.
Holladay admitted at his trial that he had damaged the silo and said he did it as a show of support for four other protesters who were standing trial at the time on similar charges.
The action represented symbolic disarmament of nuclear weapons, Holladay said at the trial.
"I am not asking him to give up his peace efforts," Hunter said. "That would be foolish; everyone would like peace."
