Show w w Page Two - The Pyramid - June 26, 1996 Comment airy Merrill Ogden Sky divers Calvin Hobbes jump into & pageant Summertime is fun time officially here! The longest day of the year was last week In some countries this day, with the most daylight of the year, is celebrated as a holiday of sorts. In Norway, its a time for parties Summer and is hoopla. Of course, if weve had the longest day of the year; that means that the days are now growing shorter. (But, dont think about that. It will only depress you ) Sanpete seems to be all abuzz with the activities of summer. We just cant seem to pack enough into the warm weather season around here. I see people working in their yards and gardens with such fervor and energy, youd think their lives depended on it. Farmers are working night and day The youth baseball leagues are consuming large amounts of time and effort and conversation. The Ephraim Lions Club Tournament is now in full swing involving much of the county. The Lions have a long tradition of doing a good job with that event. Summer is the time when people are building The construction industry "keeps on keepin on." The issuance of building permits continues at high levels. SALT LAKE CIT- Y- Mike Hurren, owner and operator of Skydive Salt Lake Inc., along with four of his most experienced skydivers will be jumping into the Sanpete Youth Pioneer Pageant as part of the to be held July 4, 5 and 6. Hurren has been skydiving for over 28 years and has completed 6,450 jumps. He was also one of the "Flying Elvis" in the movie "Honeymoon in Vegas", making 10 jumps into Las Vegas; participated in the Utah Summer Games, University of Utah football games, summer games in South Africa and a world champion at the Wings of Orange in Orange, MA. The skydivers jump from a Cessna 182 and use high performance ram air chutes called "square" chutes. Most of the community celebrations are upcoming and require lots of support. Unfortunately Sanpeters are the busiest when theyre needed the most for pulling off pageants, Fourth of July celebrations and other town events. Fortunately Sanpeters who are busy seem to get things done regardless. I hope that in all the business of the summer that Sanpeters will take the time to enjoy some of the opportunities that the season offers. Here is a list of ten simple possible "breaks" in your busy summer routine: 1 . Go on a bike ride (borrow bikes if you have to). 2. Go camping up a Sanpete canyon (remember having fun is hard work). 3. Take a walk and visit people who are sitting in yards or on porches. 4. Sit on your porch and allow yourself to be visited. 5. Go to the Basm Drive-i6. Go fishing (as the bumper sticker says, "Work is for people who dont fish."). 7. Travel part of the Skyline Drive. 8. Have an "early bird breakfast" at a park. 9. Renew a long neglected friendship of a fellow Sanpeter by inviting them to a barbecue. 10. Do what one of your kids wants to do (This one is dangerous. It could be anything from a water fight to bungee jumping). Make it a summer to remember.... pre-sho- n.

The jury deliberated less than two hours to arrive at the verdict for the stabbing death of fellow inmate Lonnie Blackmon in July of 1994. A jury returned to court Monday to decide if Kell would receive the death penalty or life in prison with or without parole. Prosecutor Kirk Torgensen said the state is seeking the death penalty. six-ma- n, During the trial, a security video tape was shown of Kell savagely stabbing Blackmon 67 times with a homemade knife in a shower area of the prison. The prosecution contended Kell was a white supremacist who killed Blackmon because he was black. Scott Reed, who is part of the prosecution team, said Kell had an extensive library of white supremacist literature including the "White Mans Bible" and Adolf Hitlers "MeinKampf." He also read a letter Kell had written to another inmate making derogatory remarks about Kell because he was black. The defense team tried to show that Kell killed Blackmon after Blackmon in made threats against him. Witnesses testified that Blackmon wanted to start a race war in the maximum security section. Kell, lawyers contended, did not report the threats to authorities for fear of being labeled a snitch, which in prison could be considered a death sentence. At press time, the Sanpete County Clerks office said they expected the penalty phase to last about one week after hearing arguments. self-defen- se Kell was already serving two life sentences for a murder that took place in Nevada in 1986. Blackmon was serving a sentence for aggravated robbery when he was convicted in Arkansas. Both men were serving time in the Central Utah Correctional Facility in Gunnison at the time of the incident and were part of a prisoner exchange program between Utah, Arkansas and 16-ye- ar lists Snow Burgoyn&h College graduates Computers 75MHz Pentium-base- EPHRAIM Utah State University recently named graduates from their Snow College Extension program: Package d cg 6 Including FaVModem ' ' & SVGA Monitor Pentium l a tegnteied trademark ot Intel Coip. v Add MultlMedla Intel 75MHz Intel CPU.
