Hr related how hectic it was to schedule all the deliveries without "doubling up." At shortly after 8 p.m., exactly 12 hours after beginning with the first delivery, Dr. Tucker had delivered his seventh baby in one day. Ive been an obstritician for 35 years and delivered more than 8.000 babies, but that was the only day that had seven deliveries, he related. Of the seven newborns , three were boys and four were girls. For two mothers it was their first birth; for three it was their second; and for one each it was their third and fifth. Attending the party were Greg Hyatt and Matt Brown, who happened to be the first two born. Greg is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Hyatt and a junior at Davis High, and Matt is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Brown, West Bountiful, and a junior at Viewmont. Matts mother was accidently killed a few years ago when electricuted. Kristine Swenson and Christine Besses mothers shared the same hospital room even giving their babies the same name, only spelled differently. Kristine is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Swenson, of Kaysville, a junior at Davis High; and Christine is the daughter of David Besee and Lois Smith and a junior at Viewmont High. The other partygoer was Amber Ferrin daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Ferrin, of Farmington. She is a junior at Davis High. Unable to be contacted were Marilyn Witt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Witt, now living in California; and Travis Summers, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill J. Travis, address unknown. Dr. Tucker admitted to being just a little miffed" n thinking he had patients scheduled to find out his maternity nurse, office staff, wife and I . late-afternoo- even his daughter were in on the party planning. But with a big smile on his face, and tears of joy prevalent, Dr. Tucker took it all in stride - loving every minute of it.

In the mean time J. Dcwell and Com. Glen Saunders will review the manual and also work on a job description analysis for the burn plant. Frank Peterson gave a construction progress report on the Burn Plant. The pour slabs have been completed and the wall slabs are being poured. The support holes for the steam line are also being drilled. In his estimation the plant is about 20 percent completed.

It was also announced that the Burn Plant has also received EPA approval from the state in writing. COM.

LIGHTER SIDE Treat disease threat CYCLOPS Conservative Davis County hardly seemed the site for a confrontation on AIDS, but we were in the forefront of this controversy in the waning days of last week's State Legislature. It had nothing to do w'ith the limited gay population or the use of contaminated needles; it dealt instead with human nature and reason. y Reason one slim vote The issue began last November with a traffic accident in r Centerville. Following a crash, police officers rushed to the aid of two victims in one of the automobiles while the driver of the other car- -a man later cited for not even having a valid drivers around the scene in what police noted was an uncooperative frame of mind. When the police finally spoke to the man, he became combative, announced Ive got AIDS and began spitting on the officers and a nearby witness. Police officers were all for spit and polish," but not for plain spit, especially when it is sprayed by an AIDS patient. They were naturally frightened, burned their gloves and coats in an attempt to be free of the deadly virus and have since visited an array of physicians. If the cops were traumatized, they shouldnt have been. The medical community says AIDS cannot be transmitted by saliva. The policemen could have donned their gloves and coats and whisked off to any church bazaar or PTA picnic or even the Governors Ball-a- nd they and their surrounding guests would be perfectly safe. So the police were wrong, but they were frightened. And they were frightened enough so that Sen. Jack Bangerterand county attorney Loren Martin drafted a bill making such a threat punishable as a felony assault. The bill made perfect sense. If some stops you on and threatens you with a Bowie knife, that your way to creates an understandable fear and becomes punishable. If a different threatens you with a e Bowie knife (That bulge in my pocket is not a handkerchief, son!"), that also creates an amount of fear-a- nd it still is punishable. Why should a disease be any different?" wonders Martin. In the Centerville case the disease is being used as an abstract its still a weapon. And its use can still cause great weapon-b- ut trauma to the victim." lost--b- two-ca- license-wande- red no-goo- 7-- 1 d 1 non-existe- nt make-believ- And the result, of course, might not be abstract If I were a sickly patient in a hospital room.

A state epidemiologist suggested that Martin and Bangerter were paranoid , saying that have to understand that they don t have to be in fear allpeople the time."
