Layton Arts Council President, the National Marionnette Theater is one of the leading puppeteering companies in the world. They are recognized internationally and are giving only two performances in Utah this year one to a select audience at Westminster College in Salt Lake and one for the general public especially the young people in Layton. IT IS also fortunate that the marionette group w ill be in Layton during the holiday season. The program the east coast based performers will be presenting is entitled The THE DAVIS County Solid Waste Management and Energy Recovery Special Service District will inform those cities, including all in Weber and Morgan counties, that the Plant will offer up to 200 tons Toy Shop." The National Marionnette Theater program is possible only because of the $1500 grant the Layton Hills Mervyns manager. Chuck Peppier, presented to Mayor Golden C. Sill and Arts Council President, Kathy Skidmore, last week. This is the second year Layton has received grant money from Mervyn's for a children's Christmas program. MERVYNS, a national retail chain store, has a policy of selecting special cultural programs in different communities where Mervyns stores are located to support. One criteria used to determine where the grant money is spent is that the community program be most beneficial to the cultural awareness of children.

Weaver Construction for $167,740. Construction will begin soon. COUNTY ATTORNEY Jerry Hess brought some matters before the commissioners. One matter was to separate the Hosking Helicopter personal property tax from that of Comanchee 400. Hosking, which owes about $75,000 in back personal property taxes is in bankruptcy. Hess explained that the county would have to wait its turn with other creditors in the hopes of receiving some money after the lien holders have been paid. The commissioners accepted the recommendation to separate the taxes to reflect two separate businesses. HESS ALSO reported on St. Marks Gardens in. Kaysville.

A new jail FARMINGTON Davis for complex County may have gotten a step closer to reality Thursday, when the Davis County Jail Advisory Committee met to discuss proposals from 10 different architects. SHERIFF BRANT Johnson told the committee that from those proposals, the group was to choose three to be discussed and considered by the county commission, who will ultimately choose the final plan. Sheriff Johnson recounted for the committee the events which led up to formulating a Master Plan for a new jail, a project started more than two years ago. He also discussed current operations at the jail, as well as what elements of the county judicial system might be included in a new facility. THREE YEARS ago, we could see the need for a new jail, and thats why this committee was formed, he stated. There hasnt been much of a question of need involved in this project, but there has been some controversy about where to locate the facility." He added that after studying the possible locations for a new jail, made the most Farmington sense, but said exact location of such a facility has yet to be finalized. THE EXISTING jail has 97 beds, but due to federal standards requiring the segregating of different elements of the jail population, should only be using 71 beds. Ironically, most of those federal guidelines were created after our current building was completed, so we got into violations of the law right off the bat," he explained.

A ceremony commemorating the groundbreaking on the project was held earlier this month.

Continued from page one BEFORE receiving the healthy bone marrow from the donor, the patients own diseased or damaged THE ACTUAL transplant is relatively simple. The donor is taken to the operating room where he or she is given general or spinal anesthesia. Bone marrow is them removed from the bones using special aspiration needles. The marrow is then prepared and given to the patient a few hours later. It is administered intravenously, like a blood transfusion, through a Hickman catheter that has previously been implanted in the patients chest. A new graft takes approximately 10 days to three weeks to begin to grow. While waiting for the graft, the patient has no bone marrow function, leaving him or her susceptible to infection and bleeding problems. prisoners at any given time. The population as of Thursday was 93, but that didnt include nine other prisoners being house in both Salt Lake and Weber counties. Such shuffling of prisoners is one of several efforts which Sheriff Johnson and his department have had to make in order to keep below the prison bed capacity. WEVE ELIMINATED any outside prisoners from coming in, such as in the case of holding them for other jurisdictions. But that has hurt us in that the rent we were collecting from those other law enforcement departments has stopped coming in, he said. Other measures the department has taken include looking into the possibility of locating portable cells in a building adjacent to the current jail. But when the cost of that proposal exceeded $100,000, we abandoned it, feeling that was too much money for a stop-gasolution to a problem that needs answers. THE DEPARTMENT is also looking at double bunking in two cell blocks, in hopes of adding 12 more beds. But Sheriff Johnson called that option undesirable as well, as it would put the county in further violation of federal standards for square footage per prisoner. He added that the current fiscal year jail budget of $996,000 will go well over $1 million for fiscal year 1986. The county is expected to receive $92,000 in state funding thanks to a bill passed two Legislatures ago, to help with jail housing. p long-ter- m THE MASTER Plan calls for a fa- cility to meet county jail needs through the year 2010. Announcement of the architectural firm selected should be forthcoming in the next few weeks, the sheriff said. by the same company, and that case is coming before the Supreme Court. Hess recommended that the county sign a stiuplation that Davis County will go along with the Supreme Court ruling on the matter. Hess said that in view of the Health Care Case, the county is hopeful that it will be able to collect taxes. The commissioners agreed to accept the recommendation. COM. SAUNDERS reported at the Tax Commission meeting that Inter-Mounta- in escaped personal property taxes were a major concern. Many times boats, trailers, cars and other property are registered in other states or in outlying counties to escape the higher taxes in the Wasatch Front counties. The present statute gives the county the power to seize and sell property but no power to place liens on the property. In a correction to a previous Davis County Commission story, R.K. Wallin, M.D., was appointed to a five year term on the County Health Board.
