That effort and cooperation could yield cost factors for the following possibilities: group favoring the issue, therefore little need for a strong opposing force to offset it. Therein lies the problem. Little useful information for the future will be forthcoming from an election in which the Interest is only passive, at best. In order to keep from wasting the money being spent to hold the election, steps could be taken to let some good come of it. Let it be assumed that the maiority of the residents are not anxious to attain city status, at least within the next year or so. They may feel that any one or combination of situations applies, such as: - There is not sufficient tax base to support a city at this time; - There is no need to fear annexation because officials of neighboring West Valley City, Murray and West Jordan have said, for the most part, they are not in- I! -- terested; - There is no current proposal, such as Lake Valley City or consolidauninwould all that the tion, bring y M m 'M i i I1 Maumau, n n n - dead-end- m m M ?$ m it m m least one and possibly both finalists will be from the Provo area.

To Utech Students y back-to-bac- k S $8820 , 1, it A tryst to pro- -' vide tuition loans for students attending Utah Technical College has been established by the Murray Rotary club. Under the direction of the financial aids department of the college, the funds may be loaned, up to $200 per student, to help pay tuition costs at the school, to be repaid within a period. Most of the loans are paid back within 30 to 60 days, said Peggy Weight, director of financial aid and scholarships. We could loan money to from 20 to 25 students a quarter, but it must be paid back to be available for the next quarter, she said. The Murray club has given the $5,000 trust fund as a community service endeavor with plans for providing another $5,000 later. Very stringent rules have been set up for a student to qualify for a loan, the director explained. To be eligible, one must have a certain grade point average, must be taking a certain number of hours and must be working toward a degree. At present, the Murray Rotarys trust fund is the only aid or scholarship being provided by a service organization at Utah Tech. In other years a few other organizations have e provided scholarships, but none is active in the program at this 90-d- i m I is f !v!v v.v M M M Birthing Room To Open At Hospital spokesman John Wagner.

Mothers are not separated from their babies for any extended period of time. Once doctors determine that both mother and child are doing well, Wagner noted, siblings will be allowed into the birthing room. By accelerating the immediate contact between the new arrival and its family, he said, closer bonds are established with the baby becoming an integral part of the family life from the beginning. Expectant mothers may use the birthing room either through a physician at Valley West or through a midwife from the Murray-base- d Birth and Family Center. If trouble does arise during delivery, hospital personnel will be available to provide the needed care, he said. To participate in the delivery, husbands or other support persons must attend a minimum of eight hours of childbirth education classes and a two-hoclass on the birthing room function, Wagner noted. Fathers also are required to attend Lamaze or similar childbirth classes to aid in coaching during labor and delivery, he added. The birthing room often will reduce costs by decreasing the amount of time mother and child remain in the hospital. Mother and infant may remain in ur the birthing room up to 12 hours and then be discharged if their condisaid head tions are satisfactory, nurse Emma Mosley.

The high school program must be planned very soon, while the Western Athletic Conference is reportedly brantournament dishing about a plan, which would mean the college floors could be tied up on a minute's notice pending the outcome of the WAC race. After this week's tournament schedule was set, the WAC changed its plans twice. It's an unfortunate situation. The UHSAA is the loser, because basketball is its biggest revenue producer. And the kids are the losers as well. Last year, Brian Taylor was cavorting around the Special Events Center in a Davis high uniform. The year before, it was George Furgis. This year's high school stars are going to be overshadowed by Taylor and Furgis and their new teammates Saturday. MASH did its number on Monday's attendance. It would seem, however, that some kind of arrangements next Monday for the 3A on the and 4A title games same floor might have made an attractive package, but it is undoubtedly too late to salvage the situation. The first inclination of the state's many basketball fans might be to berate the Utah High School Activities Assn, for what on paper appears to be the biggest gaffe since the Salt Lake media helped solidify the creation of West Valley City with some opinions prior to the second vote on the matter. The 3A and 4A championship games are on a collision course with Saturday night's college showdown between Utah and BYU, the latter encounter spiced by the tight WAC race and the fact that the earlier t win for the Utes. meeting was a It's bad enough, say the pure cage fans, that the 3A and 4A tournaments are in conflict, because many people faithfully attend both, but to go up against the Y and the U is WEST VALLEY.

Those who evaluate the present situation in this manner would likely lean toward maintaining the status quo. However, should any one or more of those conditions change, knowledge of other options would be valuable to have in hand. By fully airing the question of "city" or "no city" at next month's election, the residents of Taylorsville and Bennion could get some idea of where they stand now and, with some educated projections, where they are likely to stand in future years. They should know by now that if they want to see what the future holds, they will have Taylorsville-Bennio- Moses Maumau, 6, son of Tevita n n corporated area together (whether XX - Taylorsville-Bennio- -- -- city-count- area. becoming a city and providing all its own services; - Taylorsville-Benniobecoming a city and contracting all its services from Salt Lake County, West Valley City, Murray, West Jordan, or a combination of these government entities; - Taylorsville-Benniobecoming a city and providing some of its own services, while contracting the rest from the county or neighboring cities; - All of Taylorsville-Bennioseeking anto one of nexation the neighboring cities. Some of the options may seen totally unacceptable, but the information gained would give more of a complete picture upon which residents of these two communities can play a role in determining their future.

The main issue at this point seems not so should much whether Taylorsville-Benniobecome a city as a result of the election on April 5, but whether the voting process will yield only a count of the "ayes" and the "nays" and not the solid data and viewpoints that would provide invaluable insight into the future. -- -- I WEST VALLEY.
