MICKELSEN KAYSVILLE - Take a potato, add a splash of vegetable oil and a dash of salt and what have you got? AMERICA'S favorite munch food - the potato chip. It seems simple enough. But at the Clover Ciub food factory in Kaysville the whole process can get a bit complicated. CLOVER Club, approaching 50 years in the snack food business, uses 82 man-siz- e crates of chipping potatoes each working day. Thats 2500 pounds per crate, 205.000 pounds per day, 1.025.000 per week. And in a year 53,300,000 pounds of potatoes. Even more amazing is the potato's long journey from the crate to that cellophane bag weve all come to know and love. ACCORDING to Bill Clover Club's marketing manager, chipping potatoes are shipped in from Texas, Sar-tai- A PATIENT'S doctor ntav be unaware ol drugs being taken with 65 percent ot di North and South Dakota, Arizona, California, Oregon and, of course, Idaho.

The plants are located in Kaysville, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Colorado Springs and two in Denver, Colo, proper. AFTER THE potatoes are cleaned and screened for defects they continue along the conveyor belt, dropping three or four at a time into a sharp, sheer. Exit the potato, enter the chip. , high-spee- d THE CHIPS continue along the conveyor into a superheated oven which equalizes the moisture content of the potato. Once the moisture content is equalized the chips travel into the cooking oil chamber. Pure vegetable oil is used "so we dont give people a lot of cholesterol," Mr. Sartain said 1 v. physical fitness.

However, the court definition of "demolish and level" differ somewhat from the dictionary meaning of these words. ACCORDING to Circuit Court Judge Douglas "demolish and level" Cor-nab- means to reduce the height of the structures to the ground or to one cinder block above ground level to allow air circulation. This court opinion was given Tuesday, Sept. 15. as a result of court action initiated by Layton City against Marvin Allgood. period Layton City filed with the court to issue a contempt citation. LAYTON CITY asked the court to find Mr. Allgood in contempt of court because he had not made his structures safe. On March 6. 1981, Judge Cornaby ruled Mr. Allgood could operate his business on the corner of Antelope and Fort Lane but he had to make all structures safe. He was given six months to accomplish this. JIDGE Cornaby ruled last Tuesday that Mr. Allgood was not in contempt of court but that he was not in compliance with the earlier court decision. He then gave Mr. Allgood 60 days to make the structures LITTLE OR nothing was done during this six month safe. If Mr Allgood fails to correct the problems that exist on his property this time, Layton City hopes to be able to contract a third party to do the work at Mr. All tzood s ex- pense. dmg THE CHIPS then travel through one final oven where excess oil is removed. According to Mr. Sartain one of the myths about potato chips is that they contain a high amount of oil and salt. BUT ACCORDING to Ronald M. Deutsch, of the Potato Chip-Snac- k Food Association, on a day when a e package of chips is eaten it contributes about 90 calories in fat, about three percent of the total calories for a male or abtypical out four percent of the total calories for a typical woman from ages 19 to 50 years. Deutsch, in an articled entitled How Science Sees The Potato Chip," says Surprisingly, by scientific measure." chips are not especially salty e foods. A typical bag of chips contains approximately 450 to 650 milligrams of salt a little more than of a teaspoon." d TONS d 0' POTATOES d crate of potatoes into washClover Club worker loads almost totally stripped off. are skins the where outer ing machine" 2500-poun- Layton Council To Hear Lakeview Estates Residents The residents of Lakeview Estates Mobile Home Park m Layton will have the opportunity to be heard by the Layton City Council.
