That central argument was shaped by Bangerter and UTFC pundits to defend the law establishing the cor poration and its intent as a new-jocatalyst.

If it is, the legislation does not offend the constitution, even though there may be incidental benefit to private interests," the judge said.

Offering no objection, Mr. Sullivan said the agreement would be ratified again in a public meeting.

Driver Hurt as Car Hops Guardrail A West Jordan man was in serious but stable condition Thursday afternoon after the car he was driving slid across five lanes and dropped 75 feet from a raised stretch of Interstate 15 near 900 South. The Utah Highway Patrol reported a car driven by Hoa Hong Truong, 33, southbound on the highway, lost control on the slick pavement and struck a guardrail. The car then tumbled over the edge, landing near 900 South. Mr. Truong was admitted in critical condition to LDS Hospital shortly after the 8:30 a.m. accident, but his condition later was upgraded. The accident was the worst among several reported after Wednesday nights dusting of snow. cies.

If that bill is passed it will cause considerable problems for Mountain Bell, said Jerry Godfrey, public-affair- s manager for the company. Much of our purchasing is down on a multistate basis. Negotiating contracts this way saves us considerable money. Mountain Bells parent company, US WEST, has formed a subsidiary that does the purchasing for the local telephone companies. But ensuring these transactions are arms-lengt- h is also a concern of regulators. Last year it the bill didnt go anyplace and we hope it doesnt this year, Mr. Godfrey said. A similar bill introduced by Sen. Barton last year did not come before the Legislature for a vote and the PSCs support may be the bills best hope this year. ' This bill doesnt have a prayer unless a number of people lobby for it, us Pacts said Attorney General David Wilkinson, whose office drafted the bill about a month ago. Sen. Barton was counting on the attorney general to support the bill and said two weeks ago the attorney generals support would mean all the difference. But the Attorney Generals Office has not taken a position on the bill, Mr. Wilkinson said last week, asking: Why burden all utilities when we have a potential problem with one utility? Ever since last session, we have been working very closely with the attorney generals staff to come up with a bill he could feel very strongly about and support, Sen. Barton said. I feel bad because the last time we had the bill a similar thing happened, he said. Dave Wilkinson came out for it and then during the session he pulled back. And frankly that is what killed it. 19 f Greenrlver M M Hanksvllle Heber City Helper SO 12 M 42 Kanab 51 13 31 Logan Midway Milford M 21 21 1 1 M M 52 44 21 19 15 12 14 19 18 15 M M Richfield 32 11 Roosevelt Salt Lake City Snowbird Spanish Fork St. George M M 24 38 58 22 21 23 24 11 24 12 19 M M 20 50 17 33 41 41 21 22 4 10 37 22 17 34 21 Moab Moottcelk) Ogden Orem Park City Price Provo Randolph 2) . , 40 ....

By The Associated Press The Utah Supreme Court has been asked to expedite its ruling on the appeal of Douglas Edward Kay, who is charged with the slayings of three people during a Valentine's Day 1984 robbery of a Cedar City bar. Kays attorneys orally argued their appeal on Dec. 17, 1984, and want the high court to make up its mind soon so the case against their client can move forward. Chief Justice Gordon R. Hall acknowledged receiving a letter from Kays attorneys, R. Clayton Huntsman and Phillip L. Foremaster. Hall said he expected a decision soon. Kay is charged with three counts of e murder in the shooting deaths of a barmaid and two custom first-degre- is Playhouse charged with four counts of aggravated robbery. Norman Lee Newsted last month was convicted on the same charges, but was sentenced to life in prison by 3rd District Judge Ernest Baldwin. Kays appeal focuses on his offering of a conditional guilty plea to 5th District Judge J. Harlan Burns. Burns accepted the guilty plea, and the condition that Kay be spared the death penalty. However, prosecutors objected and on Sept. 11, 1984, asked Burns to reconsider. The next day, the judge voided the condition, but retained Kays guilty plea. Huntsman and Foremaster appealed that decision to the high court.
