WORST EXCUSE FROM A FOOTBALL COACH -Following his teams thrashing by Bountiful High, Layton High School coach Joe Wood explained away the loss by saying, Bountiful has an excellent weight room facility which we don't have, and that is extremely important. Without the weight room we cant match up with schools that have one.

If no one picked up garbage, what would our life be like? Do people consider little things they can do to make this job quicker, safer, easier, more pleasant? offers--garbag- LAST THURSDAY evening, Maurice and Penny Roche of Roche and Sons, the company contracted to provide Layton with garbage pickup services, gave a presentation to the Layton City Council that was essentially Rules for Garbage Collection. Layton residents should read through these rules and keep in mind the important and efficient service Roche and Sons gives to Laytons people. TYPE OF Container - Regula20 to 32 gallon cans or Hefty-typ- e trash bags should be used. Mr. Roche says top quality cans are worth the money. Many plastic cans freeze early in the year and split. The life of a garbage can is only one year. Household containers, GI can cardboard boxes or barrels are not suitable containers. Rain and snow break them apart and garbage is -- tion scattered. FILLED CANS should not weigh 65 pounds. Dont pack more than vour garbage in tightly. Collectors cannot reach in to pull things out. People get upset when the cans are beaten against the side of the truck. Containers that are bottomless or split along the top rim will be condemned and tossed for disposal with the garbage. IF PEOPLE want to get rid of boxes, the Roches suggest the boxes be flattened out and tied with twine or wire. CAN LIMIT While Layton - has no official can limit, common sense says that the number of cans placed out should not be excessive. Mr. Roche said it is very common to find ten cans at one home. Since Layton has no Spring or Fall clean up program, many people place clippings and prunnings out for garbage collection. The haulers dont object to this if the amount is not excessive. They will pick up limbs, etc. if they are cut in three foot lengths, tied securely and not too heavy. - TYPE OF GARBAGE The city wide garbage collection system is designed for the disposal of household garbage only. Roche and Sons are not contracted to pick up car palls, cars, small engines, furn- iture, appliances, etc. People should be cautious about disposing of caustic or dangerous chemicals and dirty crankcase oil. This is dangerous and harmful to the haulers and the machinery. It is against LPA regulations to dump crankcase oil in a landfill. Toys, bikes, etc. or anything that looks good must be broken or dis Hutchinson's Cancer Research Center, Seattle, Wash, on July 15 to undergo the transplant which could provide him a 70 percent chance to recover.

HE WAS released from the Continued on page two Jaycees support grand ol lady assembled so the collector knows it is for disposal. Sometimes a child s bike is left by the garbage cans and thrown away by mistake. WORKERS are required to clean up any mess they make but they are not required to clean up after dogs, wind, etc. If a container or bag is torn, too wet to dump or split, the haulers will not attempt to put the trash in the truck. It will be left. When and where to set trash cans - It is most helpful is a homeowner w ill place the trash out before midnight the day before your area pick up. Set the garbage on the curb near your driveway but not in front of mail boxes. -- MAKE IT a practice to put the in the same place each week. This will help the haulers do their job better.

Cars parked in front of houses make garbage collection, snow removal and emergencies difficult especially in cul de sacs. trash on-stre- IN THE wintertime, a thoughtful home owner will shovel the snow to make a place for trash cans. By taking a few minutes to do this, the haulers can do their job better and the trash will not get scattered along snowbanks. Golden Rule" treatment is the goal of Roche and Sons. Their job would be easier if people would treat them as they would like to be treated, dmg Cen- ter on Sept. 3 but had to remain near the hospital w here he could be checked and tested for 100 day period.
