Baird said at a May 17 meeting, initiated by Layton and hosted by Clearfield, city engineers from the two cities were requested to look at the cost of the three different options on the property available to them. The options include: development in Layton, development in Clearfield or spliting the property down the middle. The two city engineers will decide what the cost would be if one or both cities were to provide all services, V Baird said.

Board member Louenda Downs supported Thurgood, saying, If this is an option that can rid our schools of drugs, then it is an option that needs to be addressed. However, not everyone is in favor of the hard line approach being taken by the district Jim Hill, Davis health supervisor, said some principals oppose using the dogs because the pres- - ent law gives them the authority to call for a locker drug search if there is reasonable cause. Hill said principals have indicated to him they beleive the use of the dogs would be a disruption to the school and the students. They are also concerned with the legal aspects. But board member Henry Heath said he favors the canine policy because it does not the authority of a principal, but merely serves as a deterent. Heath, an attorney, said he believes the use of dogs must be made mandatory because if principals are against it, they wont call for the dogs.

At the Davis County Republican Convention they were both. . Several incumbents fell second to new names Saturday night as the Republican convention at Da-vHigh provided county politics a number of surprises. The biggest surprise came when four-terwinner Rep. Henry Dickamore of District 15 was pushed off the primary ballot by political newcomer Don E. Bush. Bush, who is a Clearfield resident, gathered 78 percent of the delegate vote. If any candidate at the nominating convention receives 70 percent or more of delegate votes they bypass the Sept. 6 primary election and are theq listed on the ballot for the November general js m election. Redd said, but the UEA is not making a contribution to that area. Redd, who works as attorney in Layton, said the year the UEA admitted to placing a large number of candidates in the legislature, taxes were increased. They (UEA) have done some unrepublican things within the Republican Party, he said. Redd said he now feels he top of the race but said it will take an effort to defeat Bain who, Redd said, is receiving his funds from one source. But Bain claims Redd is involved with the, tax, pfotestors group and is talking out of both sides of his mouth. v Bain said his campaign time up to this point has been cut short due to a business transaction, but the Farmington pharmacist contends the same people behind Don E. Bush are behind the Redd campaign. Bain, who has served as a State representative for two years, said he neither feels good nor bad Redd said he believed he and Bush gained more votes than their opponents because Dickamore and Bain were in the raising taxes camp."
