AIICTUAI ERfiri I nUltl MUu The Jack Hill family welcomed Michael Jamison as he arrived by plane at the Salt Lake Airport on Thursday, July 21 from his native home in Tasmania, Australia. MICHAEL will be attending Davis High School this coming year on the AFS program, (American Field Service student exchange program) and making his home with his host family, Jack and Mary Hill and children, Ryan, Natalie and Lance. Ryan who is 17 will be the host brother to Michael during his school year at Davis and both boys are anticipating an exciting and fun year together. MICHAEL is a handsome youth with a pleasant smile and cheerful personality. His favorite sport is rugby and Coach Kent Draayer is looking forward to Michael teaching Davis High School students the new sport. The coach already had Michael involved in conditioning for the football team. HE WILL be enrolled as a senior student at Davis High and after graduation will return to his home in Australia where he will be required to complete one more year in high school, before being through with his high school education, as their educational system differs from ours. When Michael left Australia, it was winter there and to arrive in Utah with the near 100 degree temperature, has been an extreme adjustment. WAS somewhat overwhelmed when landing in Los Angeles as he is not used to being in such large cities. When arriving in Kaysville he HE felt more at home with the friendly atmosphere that exists in the smaller community. Michael said the food is different, but in time will become accustomed to it. He said he will also miss all of his swimming and body surfing, but Mrs. Hill assures him that they will teach him to water ski and golf, and keep him very busy. He enjoys watching all sports and there are lots of activities in this small community. MICHAELS father, Harry Jamison, is a medical doctor and his mother, Cathy, is a school teacher and teaches at a deaf school. He has two sisters and also two dogs which are their family's favorite pets. He brought with him, colored slides and books from his native country as well as a boomerang which he made at school and brought as a gift for Lance, his younger American brother. MICHAEL said he has received such a friendly welcome from all those he has had the opportunity of meeting already.

AT THAT time, attorneys for the excavation companies reviewed the ordinance. Mr. Moore said that he anticipates that if the ordinance is adopted in Davis County, that Salt Lake and Weber Counties will probably adopt a similar or- the excavation ordinance by the planning commission, they will advise the Davis County Commission that the document be adopted. The county commission will then advertise for another public hearing prior to taking action on the proposed excavation ordinance. passed MR. MOORE said, at the earliest, the document will not be passed for two months. Within one year after the adoption of the ordinance, all existing mining operations in the county will be required to comply with the provisions. Enforcement of this ruling may be open to litigation, Mr. Moore said. An attorney for one gravel said the comthe legality of in the courts, As- MOST of the Davis County residents, who were present at the hearing, questioned how the ordinance would apply to an existing gravel operation, Hall and Gailey, which presently is in operation in East Layton.

FROM Des Moines, PTA officials recently announced the tactics to be used in the effort to curb violence. Parents are urged to protest to managers of stations showing excessively violent programs. If theres no response, PTA groups will appeal to the Federal Communications Commission to areas of Davis County. The other three gravel plants are above the bench area in North Salt Lake, east of Fruit Heights and between Farmington and Centerville. IF passed, the ordinance would create a natural resources zone which would identify areas which contain natural resources. Approval for extracting such resources as sand, gravel, clay, borrow, stone, rock, top soil and road base would be allowed only if the permit for excavation was granted by the Davis County Planning Commission and the Davis County Commission. Mr. Moore said the heart of the ordinance is the reclamation plan which requires the excavator to present maps, showing a description of the methods by which the area will be restored. These plans must include landscape, plans and a perspective drawing of the reclaimed site indicating proposed slopes, vegetation and land uses. HE POINTED out that enforcement of the ordinance will call for a zoning administrator to inspect excavation sites at regular intervals. If the excavator is not in compliance with the provisions of the ordinance, legal action will be initiated. Any natural resources excavation permit can be revoked if the company fails to with the comply requirements of the natural resources zone, the ordinance states. For failure to comply, the excavator will be required to appear before the planning commission, which will hear the charges. The planning commission can vote to continue the permit, revoke it or modify it. ALIX Frazer, East Layton, questioned Mr. Moore, asking what the regulations on excavators had been in the past. Mr. Moore said that the present Davis County excavation ordinance does not require the detail required by the ordinance. If passed, the new ordinance would require preliminary inventory and analysis, a presite inventory and analysis, a mining operations plan and a reclamation plan. Before the permit is authorized, it requires the signature of seven persons or agencies. This permit must be approved by the owners, THE PTA effort is commendable and deserves wide public support.

Moreover, numerous authorities agree that everyone has some degree of Psi. CONSIDER these documented cases covering the four major areas of Psi, which are among many cited in an August Reader's Digest article by Dr. Laile E. Bartlett. 1. Telepathy, the ability to communicate by means other than the five senses: in one of the more than 15,000 studies made by Louisa Rhine of the Institute of Parapsychology at Durham, N.C., a Texas teacher broke a rule and left her students to be near the telephone. It rang with a message: Come at once; your sister is dying. had been sitting. 4. the PSYCHOKINESIS, power to move objects without touching them: under strictly controlled conditions, a staff member at Brooklyns Maimonides Dream Laboratory caused objects to move by using only her eyes or gestures. These are but a few of the increasing number of cases sludied and verified under scientific controls. And pragmatists are joining the bandwagon of believers.

Precognition, warning of an event that hasnt yet happened: in one of Louisa Rhine's cases, a girl canceled previous plans because she "had" to get home. Finding her parents sitting in the living room, she had to get them into another part of the house. As soon as they moved, a car crashed into the house, destroying the chairs in which the parents celebrated their grandson Morgan Sandalls third birthday anniversary.

SUPER-stric- t in methods, and conservative in their Psi reporting, researchers have improved experimentation and verification enormously in recent years. Nonetheless, the Digest article notes, many scientists remain skeptical. But a growing body of evidence seems to point to an astonishing conclusion : the world of Psi may. in the years to come, have an impact comparable to the scientific revolutions created centuries ago by Copern icusandGalileo. The rationale: If you can think yourself sick, why not think yourself well?' county commission OTHER questions at the public hearing dealt with disquestions on noise buffer tances and dust. Richard Smith, East Layton, questioned the decibel level of noise allowable. Mr. Moore said that noise disturbance was difficult to pin down in a court of law, but said the planning commission would pursue that matter further and get more specific on noise levels before the ordinance was passed. He said that decibel levels would have to be established for each site since noise disturbance depends on atmospheric conditions, as well as the typography of the land. MS. FRAZER questioned whether the buffer distance of 100 feet between property owners and the machinery and equipment for the excavation site was adequate. Mr. Moore said the buffer distance was arrived ai based on an examination of other ordinances. He said in specific instances, if this distance appears not to be appropriate, the planning commission will change the distance. Mr. Smith also questioned how dust generated from the gravel plant would be controlled. Mr. Moore explained that excavation sites create from two kinds of dust-du- st the operation itself and dust created by heavy winds which blow the disturbed earth. He said that the continual reclaimation, required by the plan, should alleviate the problem. MR. MOORE said the planners would consider making regulations on how big an area could be excavated in one phase before ( began excavations at an adjoining site. Mr. Smith also questioned whether some limitation on the type of equipment used, could be required since certain types of brakes created undue noises. Ray Hale, chairman of the planning commission, said, while the commission would look into this matter, We dont want to restrict developers to the point that they can't move. AFTER the first public hearing, developers were asked to comment on the ordinance and some of their suggestions were incorporated in the ordinance presented at the public hearing.
