Dogs must have licenses and be contained on owners property at night, said Marshal Francis J. Kelly. There is no kidding this time, the Marshal said. A dart gun has been made available to the city which when used will render a dog immobile. It can then be caught and will be destroyed if in violation of these two ordinances. A fcackhoe will dig a hole and the Marshal will have help in carrying out his duties in this respect. Dog licenses will go on sale Monday, February 7 and may be obtained at the City Office or from the Marshal. Cost for dog tags is $1 for males, and $8 for females. City ordinance disallows dogs to run loose after dark. So even though licensed, a dog running the streets after dark will meet this fate. 3, 1972 10c Community School In an effort to keep update in medical training for both doctors and nurses, the Intermountain Regional Medical Program sponsored a Community Cardiovacu-la- r Review Program at the G.
