Roy Chamber Hears of Problems In Converting Hospital To Emergency l)Se , . - , Grant L. Horsley, Administrator of the Weber Memorial Hospital, spoke to the Roy Chamber of Commerce in the monthly meeting, on the possibility of the changing of the hospital from a long term intensive care program to a short term emergency setup. He told of a three point program which would have to be instigated before any part or whole change could come about. Mr. Horsley said that the Hospital Board, which presently is composed of the Weber County Commissioners, would have to give their complete approval, as any. change would entail much cost. He continued by pointing out that doctors of the area would have to work out a cooperative basis by which one doctor would be available at any time to cover emergency cases which would arise. This is a program whirh the doctors themselves would have to 1. fork out, the administrator noted. Most Important Thirdly and probably the most important would be the support the community would have to give to such a project, Mr. Horsley said. , Administrator Horsley continued by pointing out that the hospital had originally been set up to care for the aged, but planning and equipment had been provided for the Ume when a change over to emergency use became necessary. Facilities include two rooms for surgery, an dept., a pharmacy, and a physical therapy dept., he further noted. In conclusion Mr. Horsley said that at the present time, the hospital has one complete wing which and has not been used since the opening of the hospital in 1960. He added that the residents of North Davis County are presently investigating the possibility Pioneer Biographies Consultant Lakeview Stake Plan Agenda Week New Dietitian Named At County Hospital pot-luc- k Henry Field Orings Family To Hooper Flats From England, Opens Coal Yard Henry Fields Sr. was born July at Weeford, Stratfford-shirEngland.

City Tables Beer License Applications Applications for two beer licenlast Monday night by the City Council pending inspection by city departments. The applications to operate a cabaret in the basement of the Twilight ZoZne Cafe, 5300 S. 1900 W by Darrell Clutz was set aside for investigation! by the City Fire Department, Health and Building inspectors. The lack of an exit in the basement raised the question to Councilman Elywn S. Walker of the fire safety of the establishment. Another application to operate a tavern in the building previously know as the Chez Paree at 5602 S. 1900 W was approved subject to the endorsement of the Health Department. The two owners, Darrell Nielsen and Richard Briggs, reportedly cancelled the lease held by Mrs. Sophie Giles after she withdrew her beer license application, and applied to operate a tavern themselves. The council recently declared that be 'ore any license- - can lie approved, the Health, Fire, Building, and Police inspectors must review the proposed business premises and operators. ces were tabled Aprender Guild Holds Monthly Meet, Hear Guest Artist The Aprender Guild held their March meeting recently at the home of Mrs. Henry A.
