The Salt Lake County Sheriffs Mutual Aid Association has retained a special consultant to lead an effort to defeat the unification, Enterprise has learned. The mutual aid association is a private deputy sheriffs organization which its spokesman said has the same status as other associations of gover-meemployees. The county attorney's office is looking at the whole situation, since it has been approached on the legality of its influence by the man representing the deputies, Brigham assistant Young University professor of Public Administration William M. Timmins. Said a spokesman for the deputies: "Our main interest is to sec that citizens are ty $20 million expansion on Snowbird's drawing board the Enterprise has learned. "The plans are drawn and as a matter of fact, the job has been bid once," a Snowbird source said. It will include a convention center. "A year ago the bids were $16 million to $18 million. Time and inflation will certainly have pushed that higher," our source said. The new lodge would be situated between the Snowbird Center and the Lodge at Snowbird.

Environmentalists get upset, and so do others if we get too definite. Right now all we knowr for sure is that the plans arc drawn. The questions still being asked are on financing. "Do wc finance internally? Not if we have another year like last year. Or. do wc go outside for our financing?"

MONDAY, JANUARY 16, 1978 o Ballet West on the skids? Ballet West is deeply in debt, owes the Utah Symphony more than $100,000, and at the very least has serious cash flow problems, the Enterprise has learned. How much trouble are they in really? Depends on whom one talks to, especially since arts companies arc often in debt and trouble financially anyway.
