Monica Lewinsky has a new pair
of scandal-tested defense lawyers
to try to ward off indictment,
while prosecutor Kenneth Starr is
asking the Supreme Court to help

of the Secret Service and Clinton

Lindsey from answering certain

“The nation has a compelling
interest that this criminal investi-

United States conclude as quickly
as possible — that indictments be
brought, possible reports for
impeachment proceedings issued
and nonprosecution decisions
announced,” Starr wrote.
"This court s immediate review
would powerfully serve that vital
goal,” Starr said, asking for a June
29 hearing before the justices
adjourn for the summer.

process," White l louse spokesman

Grady Memorial Hospital and the county in a critical physician short-
age. And, if the doctors had left this community, the hospital would
have been forced into major restructuring, including the elimination or
severe reduction of many services the community has become depen-
dent upon.
“We are very pleased that Dr. Bledsoe, Dr. Essex, Dr. I less, and Dr.
Jenkins have agreed to stay and become a part of the Five Oaks Medical
Group," Grump said. “This will allow continuation of medical services
that residents have come to rely on.
Grump said establishing the clinic does not lessen the hospital s sup-
port of the medical staff remaining at Southern Plains. He said physi-
cians on staff at Southern Plains are highly skilled and also critical to the
continuing of quality health services in the county.
Referrals to Southern Plains specialists for surgical and other special-
ty procedures will be an ongoing process from Five Oaks physicians.
Grady Memorial Hospital operates as a public trust under Oklahoma
State law and is self-supporting from business operations. I he hospital
does not receive any funds from tax revenues for the support or opera-
tion of any of its programs.

there was no need for the Supreme
Court to grant Starr s rare request
to bypass the normal appeals
process as it did during Watergate.
"The president s response treats
this as a matter-of-fact investiga-
tion. Starr wrote in response.
‘But the unhappy fact is that, at
the determination of the attorney
general herself, a president is
under serious criminal investiga-
tion.
"That unfortunate circum-
stance is a rare occurrence in our
nations history.
The fact that “Secret Service
personnel have evidence highly
relevant to an ongoing criminal
investigation of the president and
others is itself sufficient to bring
the dispTite’"to the Supreme Court
now, Starr said.

presidential friend Webster
Hubbell, his wife and two associ-

to Starr's authority to prosecute
them for conspiracy to evade

hundreds of thousands of dollars
in payments to Hubbell, much of
it from friends of the Clintons in
1994 when Hubbell was being
investigated by Whitewater prose-
cutors.
