Unanimous Decision They were charged with contributing, the state contended, because they had failed to ascertain the girls age and send her home because she was under 18. Said the unanimous decision, written by Justice R. L. Tuckett, there is nothing in the record to indicate that during (the girls) stay at the church she engaged in any unlawful or immoral conduct, nor was she exposed to criminal or immoral conduct on the part of others. The state contends that the defendants were under a duty to investigate the age and residence of the girl and to notify her parents or the authorities of her whereabouts.

In 19 years on the force, this is the first time in my memory something like Hood Control Jobs There were planning funds amounting to $70,000 for the Army Engineers for tw'O new Utah flood control projects. The largest was $50,000 for the Jordan River Basin. The other, for $20,000, was for the Colorado River and tributaries above Lees Ferry. For the proposed Little Dell Dam in Salt Lake County there was $280,000 in advance planning money for this flood control project. There was also $30,000 in the budget for flood control planning on the Weber River and its tributaries. Mr. McKay also reported there was $530,000 in the bill for a feasibility study of the Ute Indian unit of the Central Utah Project, $79,000 in feasibility investigation money for the Bear River and $61,000 for a water study in western Box Elder County. long-soug- ht right-of-wa- Envelope, With $554, Police Evidence, Disappears An envelope containing For the Lyman project, which is in Utah and Wyoming, there was $1,655,000 budgeted. This wras mainly for continued construction work on the China Meadows Dam. Of the wnrk to be done in Utah, the estimated amount was $1,545,000. The bill also contains $495,000 for the Vernal unit and $277,000 for the Emery County projects, units of the Central Utah Project which are virtually completed. Besides, Utah will share in $950,000 earmaiked by the committee for recreational and fish and wildlife facilities for the reservoirs created by the Upper Colorado storage dams. Loan money for two small Ulah reclamation projects also was contained in the budget. There was $212,000 for the second phase of the Haights Creek project , and $310,000 for the Roy Water Conservancy District. The committee allowed $6 million for the Bureau of Reclamations weather modification program and according to a member of Rep.

' Drinking, Drug Use Linked to Culture, WSC Professor Claims By Barbara Springer Tribune Medical Writer What separates man from animals? The greatest difference is mans desire to take medicine, a speaker at the 21st annual session of the University of Utah School on Alcoholism and Other Drug Dependencies said Monday. Speaking in the Special Events Center, Dr. Jennings G. Olson, head of the Departments of Philosophy and Anthropology, Weber State College, Ogden, noted that there are six categories of drugs. These he defined as the euphcricas, sedatives which affect mental activity (such as opium); phantasticas, hallucinogens like hemp, marijuana and hashish; inebrinfias, drugs of drunkenness like alcohol and ether; hypnotic? s, sleep producing agents; excitantias, ment, i stimulants such as caffeine found in coffee and tea, tobacco, and tranquilizers. Somewhat Different To understand drinking and drug use behavors, it is necessary to understand tne inlividuals culture. Culture. Dr. Olson defined, is an organized group of learned respoi ses characteristic ol a particular suciety. In essence, it is a learned way of life which is shared by people. While all cultures are somewhat different from each other, they all share some common functions. There must be a technology, providing for the physical survival of its members, Dr. Olson There also is a copimon soexplained. cial system, the living together cooperatively and harmoniously of people. There also has to be a system of the speaker contraining or education, There must be some means of tinued. providing satisfaction of certain psychological needs, and a system of general orientation so that the individual has some idea of his place in the world. 2.5 Gallons Emphasizing that studies have indicated the growing problem of dependen-- , cy upon alcohol and drugs, Dr. Olson told some 1,500 persons, In the United States, iongnly seven out of every ten persons aged 16 and over consume alcoholic beverages to some extent. The majority, however, drink under control (that is, they do not become alcoholics). Four to six percent of American adults are alcoholics or some six to nine million. And tliere are about 2.5 gallons of ab re the. United States, roughly seven out of e ary ten persons aged 16 and over consume alcoholic beverages to some ex:nt says Dr. Jennings G. Olson. The majority, houever, drink under control. Four to six percent of American adults are alcoholics, or six to nine million.99 solute alcohol consumed per person the speaker cond of all arrests tinued. Roughly (or about 1.5 million) are fer public drunkenness and more than 250,000 arrests are for drunken driving. The figures arent quite as definite when it comes to drug aouse, a problem which has surfaced only relatively recently. Dr. Olson did say, however, that the estimated use of LSD on campuses ranges from a low of between one and two percent to a high of between 15 annually in America, one-thir- and 20 percent. Another speaker, Dr. Chester A. Sw professor of rehabilitation medicine, Npw' York University Medical Center, New Yoik City, discussed, in a swmewhat techr.kal speech, alcohol and the human body. He sa'd, for example, that the amount of alcohol in two quarts of expired (or exhaled) air is equal to the of an amount of alcohol in ounce of blood. When alcohol is ingested, it heads for the liver where it is burned up or metabolized. One gram of sugar w'ill yield four4 calories of heat, Dr. Sw inyard and one gram of alcohol will noted, yield seven calories of heat. But these are naked calories because alcohol does not contain any vitamins or minerals. Thats one reason why an alcoholic becomes nutritionally deficient. The body, he continued, burns up of an ounce of alcohol about each hour. And whenever absorption (ingestion) exceeds the ability of the liver to metabolize ii, then the amount of alcohol in the blood increases. Dr. Swinvard stressed that "alcohol is a continuously acting depressive drug. Ego Problem Dr. James A. Knight, associate dean and professor of psychiatry, Tulane School of Medicine, New Orleans, La., noted that no matter what the source of Ins (or her) conflicts, the addict (or alcoholic) generally has some unsolved ego problem(s). Some personality characteristics evident in these people, he continued, are their limited capacity for healthy, personal relationships; a defective often seriously distorted expectations of what life owes them, and a heightened attention to the present, little attention to the future. The alcohol and drug school will continue through Friday, In addition to the general sessions, the participants will Attend one for more) of the 17 group sessions w'hich will provide special information, instruction, demonstrations and discussions of cases to specific persons, such as psychologists and counselors, so cial others, clergy, eucators, l.vj enforcement peisonnel and others. self-imag- |
