Guest view – The Opinion of Jeana Arballo, Hollister resident and mother

Letter: A rebuttal to Friday’s guest view on the healthcare industry, law
As a current student who majors in Health Information Management or “medical records”, I am compelled to respond to the Guest View by John and Tess Ucovich in the Friday issue of the Hollister Free Lance. In my current class, Principles of Healthcare Reimbursement, it is mandatory that students do copious weekly research in order to fully participate in weekly discussions of the healthcare industry.
Water Cooler: Would Walmart be good for Hollister?

Letter: Integrity of the game missing
The Little League International championship baseball game played between the USA and Japan was not the usual “let’s have fun and be good sports”. This game was a pitchers battle with no love lost for each other. The team from Japan came to compete. Unfortunately, at all cost, Japan played the game like college professional players. The Japanese hurler pitched inside often, either knocking down or hitting three batters. This style of aggressive play took place with key American players. The strategy worked; a number of U.S. players were upset and frustrated by this action. In my opinion, this game plan was developed and promoted by Japan’s coaching staff. To play youth baseball in this fashion detracts from the purpose of Little League baseball, to play with honor and good sportsmanship.
