The outpatient procedure has enabled thousands to eliminate glasses or contact lenses or wear much lighter, thinner glasses. Dr.

Gerald Clarke will explain it at informational meetings, held twice monthly, at locations convenient to residents of the Fox Cities, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac and eastern Wisconsin. At the session, Dr. Clarke will present the history of RK surgery and explain recent developments, show slides that explain the procedure, answer questions and use prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses to tell those who attend whether the procedure is appropriate for them. There is no obligation for the meetings. To reserve a place at the next meet- ing; call Dr.

Welch maintained that Wisconsin legislators are already moving to dealwith the real problems: cost and availability of health insurance. Welch, the Assembly's assistant minority leader with 10 years of legislative experience, announced his candidacy in eight cities late last week.

He said his campaign theme is one of common sense. "With so little common sense in Washington right now, we see the American dream slipping away," he stated, criticizing the Democratic administration for standing in the way of growth, and Kohl for "waffling" and indecisiveness as to what his agenda is. I Welch, who promised to resign if ever voted in the U.S. Senate to raise federal taxes, believes he can Imake a difference in getting the federal budget balanced. He noted that while he has served in the Leg-lislature under Gov.

Tommy Wisconsin has not raised taxes, and has been working Ito reform education, welfare and "the state justice system. fitzpatrick, who brought his wife and eight children to an earlier press conference Saturday to announce his candidacy, is running a "Kids First" theme. The former La Crosse County Republican Party chairman said he is intent on reducing the spread of violence and restoring the import- ance of family. He is worried about children kil-; ling children, the high rate of illegi-; timate births, the increasing number of children living in ty and a juvenile crime rate that has doubled in the last 10 years. "We need our national govern- ment to focus its resources on children and crime prevention," he said, adding that if this country is to build a long-term future it must put kids first.

Beyond that he supports family- friendly tax policies, local govern-' ment contracts with private agencies for services, schools "not controlled by narrow interests or teacher unions," fewer government mandates on business and the continued development of a skilled workforce. Zeuske, who lives in Peshtigo, served eight years in the state Assembly before being elected state treasurer in 1990. Gard, her husband, said she has a reputation for getting things done, believes the role of government should not be "regulation overkill" as with the proposed striker replacement bill, and has been a consistent advocate of no new taxes and a pro-growth agenda that will keep American workers competitive.
