Last year was a year of woe and of many triumphs. The flooding of 1983 will not soon be forgotten. But who can f orget that eventful night in '83 when the Red Devil football team met the Spanish Fork Dons in a clash that still reverberates through Spanish Fork. Springville won the ame 23-13 and with it the region eight crown. And there was that special news conference that was held on Oct. 4 in the Art Museum that Governor Matheson sl t tended. In that meeting the Stouffer Food Company said they would come to Springville and set up a plant. Having the plant here means 1,200 more jobs will be available to local people. All in all it was an eventful year. But what of the new year. It promises to be an eventful one also. Not only because of High School sports, but because of the possibilities of another flood. The flooding of X 983 will surely be surpassed as the snow levels are higher thian last years already, and Utah Lake is already rising. This year will surely be a flood year. We hope that we will be ready for it. i --TO; . ....- 5- i mi "-mimr r " " " ' - " " !

Carey Margaret R. Fleenor In New enzyme heart attack Editors note: This article has been Provided by Mountain View Hospital. Thousands of heart attack deaths could be prevented if a new enzyme that dissolves blood clots in the leg can be made available to cardiologists, car-diologists, an Ohio State University researcher has said. According to a recent story by Scripps-Howard Service writer Rita Rubin, Dr. Raymond Magorien, an assistant professor of medicine at Ohio State University, has found that injecting the enzyme streptokinase strep-tokinase directly into a blocked coronary artery stimulates the body to produce an anti-clotting enzyme. Heart attacks occur when the heart is denied oxygen, often by a blood clot in the coronary artery. The body produces anti-clotting substances within a few days or weeks, but permanent damage to heart muscles can occur within a few hours of the attack. "There are some preliminary data to suggest that we might be able to reduce mortality 30-40 percent," said Dr. Magorien, who led the Ohio State study. "We're very optimistic. There's an incredible amount of enthusiasm." More than 700,000 Americans suffer heart attacks each year. Nearly one in five heart attack Your schools and vou By Robert By Robert S. Hunsaker Every concerned citizen should read the educational reform reports being released. One report being seriously considered con-sidered by many of the educational community is entitled "Education in Utah: A Call to Action". This report came from a committee appointed by the Governor. Most of the educational reform reports have come as a result of the interest created by a 33 page report released last March called "A Nation at Risk." Educators are excited that people are focussing their attention on education and its problems and hope the result of this attention will be positive. The Governor's Steering Committee Com-mittee report makes excellent recommendations in the area of improved student competency by demonstrated achievement and suggestions for better discipline and remedial work programs. Educators are disturbed, however, by the difinition of productivity ' which says," Highway Patrol to get tough on sunscreening Sunscreening on vehicle windows and altered vehicle suspensions will be the target of a stepped-up enforcement en-forcement effort by the Utah Highway High-way Patrol beginning the new year. Utah law has long made it illegal to use sunscreening devices on the windshields or side windows to the left and right of the driver. Approved Ap-proved sunscreening can be used on the side windows behind the driver and on the rear windows, but the vehicle must also have left and right outside mirrors. The Patrol will be enforcing recently passed legislation specifying maximum bumper height on cars and trucks. Passenger car bumpers cannot exceed 22 inches above the pavement, trucks up to 4,500 pounds gross vehicle weight cannot exceed 26 inches, and trucks up to 10,000 lbs. GVW cannot exceed 30 inches. Exceptions will be made for any additional height resulting from oversize tires, but only for the amount added by the tires themselves. them-selves. According to Lieutenant Bob Hayward, administrator of the U.H.P. Safety Inspection Section, troopers have previously enforced the sunscreening law, but enforcement en-forcement has been somewhat inconsistent. in-consistent. "The increased public interest in Losses are tax The loss of personal property, whether frcm theft, accident or natural disaster, can be upsetting. If you have experienced a loss this year, there is a bit of consoling news for you. Many of these types of losses can be taken as itemized deductions on your tax return. These are called casualty losses. A casualty is the damage, destruction, or loss of property resulting from an identifiable event that is sudden, unexpected or unusual, such as a hurricane or flood. , The unlawful taking and removing of money or property with the intent to deprive the owner of it is, of course, a theft. v- To determine your deduction for a casualty or theft loss, you must first figure the amount of yout loss. A loss is generally either the decrease in fair market value of the property as a result of the casualty of theft, or your basis in the property before the loss, whichever is less. If you receive insurance or another type of reimbursement for your loss, you must subtract it from the amount of loss when figuring the deduction. That is, you cannot deduct the part of a casualty or theft loss for which you are reimbursed. . Nonbusiness casualty and theft may help victims victims who survive the trip to the. hospital dies before he or she leaves. By reducing heart damage, streptokinase not only saves heart attack victims, but enables them to lead active lives, Margorien said. About 50 heart attack patients at Columbus' University Hospital have received streptokinase injections during the past 18 months. Emergency department staff members collect such information as chest x-rays and electrocardiograms; elec-trocardiograms; then, patients in the study are taken to the cardiac catherization laboratory. Catheters and blood dyes pinpoint the blockage. The streptokinase then is injected for up to an hour and a half. Margorien said the risk in choosing to receive streptokinase after a heart attack is the same as a non-emergency cardiac catherization. Although streptokinase appears useful in dissolving blood clots, it has no effect on fatty deposits that block blood flow through coronary arteries, Margorien said. Many heart attack patients who receive streptokinase injections still need coronary bypass surgery or nonsurgical treatment to circumvent cir-cumvent or widen arteries. S. Hunsafcer "productivity means teaching an increased number of students for the same or less number of dollars while maintaining or raising the quality of education." When educator's consider that statement in light of the fact that Utah already has the highest class size in the nation and Utah County schools are among the highest in the State, they wonder if this approach can possibly benefit the child or make teaching more attractive. ' Another problem raised by the Steering Committees recommendation recom-mendation is that it appears to take away local Boards of Education control of the district education system and put it in the hands of the state. There is one thing for sure and that is all these proposals will be hotly debated. In fact, the Governor's Gover-nor's Steering Committee will hold a hearing on its report Nov. 30, 1983, at 7 p.m. at Provo High School West Cafeteria. This would be a good tplace to gather information on the educational reform proposals. sunscreening has stimulated development of enforcement policies," said Hayward. "We've not been rejecting sunscreening at our safety inspection stations in the past; but come January 1, that will change." Hayward says safety was the consideration in the decision to get tough on sunscreening and bumper heights. Bumpers are designed to absorb energy from a crash. Illegally high bumpers defeat that purpose when they crash over the top of the bumper of another vehicle. Occupants in a car with a legal and lower bumper are denied the benefit of their own bumper's shock absorption ab-sorption system. Sunscreening reduces visibility at night, particularly on unlit or wet roads. "It's like trying to drive at night with dark sunglasses on," said Hayward. Vehicles that are legally registered outside of Utah will not be required to comply with the sunscreening sun-screening or the altered vehicle regulation while traveling through the state. There are federal regulations specifying the degree of light transfer and reflectivity that any legally used sunscreening device must have. Approved devices will include a small sticker denoting compliance with "VESC - 20." deductible losses will be deductible only to the extent that the total amount of such losses exceeds 10 percent of, adjusted gross income."
