The Park City Community Clinic is going back to court. An appellate court in Washington, D.C. has agreed to hear the appeal filed by the clinic and Planned Parenthood Par-enthood of Utah challenging a recent court ruling which supported a decision to route federal funding through the Utah Department of Health. Clinic Director Diana Maxell said Tuesday that the appeal would be heard Jan. 24, and that a decision should come shortly after that. The appeal challenges an Oct. 29 ruling by Washington District Court Judge John Pratt which denied a preliminary pre-liminary injunction designed to continue the flow of direct federal funds to the Utah family planning clinics. A rash of legal action stems from a September announcement that the federal fed-eral Department of Health and Human Services would reroute its family planning funds through the state. Planned Parenthood and the Park City Community Clinic objected to the move, concerned con-cerned that it would reduce the level of funding and would result in greater state control over their agencies. Under Utah law, clinics cannot provide family planning plan-ning services to minors without parental consent. Clinics receiving direct fed-restriction. fed-restriction. While Judge Pratt heard the request for an injunction, federal funding fund-ing was continued on a day-to-day basis. However, five days following his decision, those funds were cut off.

WASATCH BLVD. Clinic has been operating entirely on patient fees and private donations sice Nov. 3. "We did go off our sliding fee scale when we lost our federal grant," Maxell said. "However, we're still seeing a number of people for free. ' ' In spite of a dramatic increase in caseload in recent months, and in spite of fundraising efforts such as the Christmas Fair and Swap Meet which raised $417 last Saturday, Maxell said the clinic cannot function without government funds beyond the end of December. So, until the appeal is heard in Washington, she is turning to the state for help. "We will try to negotiate some kind of interim contract con-tract with the state in the meantime," she said. "I think they will be willing to sign... the negotiations have been going well." Should the appeal be denied, Maxell indicated the clinic would look to the state for a more permanent funding fund-ing arrangement. "We're talking about $2,000 less per month (than the clinic received through the federal government). That's a lot of money for a small program like ours. "Either way, I think we're at the point now that we will be in business." Summit Savings reports earnings According to Dean S. Berrett, president of Summit Savings and Loan, the association as-sociation reported net earnings earn-ings of $53,743 for the period ending Oct. 31, 1982. This corresponds to an earnings per share of $.53. During this same time period Summit's total loan volume was in excess of $3,400,000. This is more than three times the total volume for all of 1981. Summit has total assets of $3,016,866, a net worth of $432,059, which is over four times the net worth required by federal regulations. A combination of strong financial finan-cial reserves, federal insurance in-surance of accounts to $100,000 and increasing profitability pro-fitability places Summit among the state's leading financial institutions. Berrett Ber-rett attributes Summit's profitability pro-fitability and growth to an aggressive marketing of financial fi-nancial services such as Summit's "Super Checking" now paying 11.5 percent, a very competitive posture with regard to jumbo certificates certifi-cates of deposit, and an efficient effi-cient loan organization and brokerage service with other financial institutions in the secondary market. Berrett says the association associa-tion will continue its philosophy philo-sophy of offering consumers the most competitive product pro-duct allowed by current regulations. Consistent with this philosophy, Summit will offer effective Dec. 14, 1982, a new account authorized by the federal government. The account will be insured by the FSLIC to $100,000, will offer limited checking features, fea-tures, and pay a high market rate of interest. Control of Summit Savings recently changed hands with California businessman Peter Sajovich acquiring a majority of the association's outstanding stock.

V . J f J Kay Draper Kay Draper to be transportation director? Remember the story in the Park City Newspaper a couple of months ago about W. Paul Sill, named to be the city's new transportation director? Well forget it. He's not coming. According to City Manager Arlene Loble, the city had intended to hire Sill on a contract basis during the current winter season. However, How-ever, Loble said that Sill returned the contract last week "substantially revised," re-vised," prompting the city to withdraw its offer. Sill had been employed by the Knoxville (Tenn.) Tran sit Authority to run the Knoxville World's Fair. Park City has had no official transportation director direc-tor since the departure of Jan Sylvester in February. Kay Draper, a former bus driver with several years' experience in Park City, has been the acting director. Loble said Draper has now been offered the job on a permanent basis. "I wish she had applied for the job in the first place," Loble said. "She has been doing a very fine job." At this writing, Draper is still weighing the city's offer.
