A substitute change involving a smaller amount of land and larger lot sizes is being recommended by council. The original request was to have covered a large section of land between 1600 North and 1200 North in the west quarter of the city and would have changed the zone from A-2 (two and one-half acres) to RA-2 (one-third acre lots).

Planning Commission there upon opposed the council's recommendations stating that these requirements would make the change difficult at this time. Mayor Everet Predmore took the opportunity to review the city's decision of three years ago to try and streamline the approval process for subdivisions and zone changes, etc. Efforts will be renewed, council stated, to find ways to accomplish this goal.

While housed at St. Benedict's HosDital in Ogden for the last four Are we more healthy? by Dennis Hinkanip Consumer Information Writer Despite the emphasis on cholesterol in the media and in food advertising, food scientists are still not sure the correct health questions are being addressed. Most consumers would agree that cholesterol and its relationship to heart disease gets top billing in the media. Omega-3 fatty acids, oat bran, polyunsaturated oil and another dozen or so cholesterol "cures" have all made headlines in recent years. Consumers' concern about the perceived problems associated with cholesterol have led them to change their eating habits. These changes are often given credit for a reduction in death due to heart disease. From 1967 to 1985, death due to heart diseases has decreased by about 25 percent. This is often tied to our decreased consumption of cholesterol and saturated fat. However, during this same period of . time, the number of males admitted to hospitals for heart surgery has increased about 300 percent. Much of the reduction in heart disease deaths can be attributed to more surgeries and improved surgical techniques rather than dietary changes, according to Dr. Von T. Mendenhall, food scientist in the Utah State University college of ,Family Life. Food consumption surveys show that we are consuming more fish, poultry and vegetable oils. We are also consuming fewer eggs and less butter, which has lowered our total consumption of animal fat. Over the same period of time, however, our total fat intake has increased by about 25 percent. It is true that only animal products contain cholesterol, but many vegetable oils contain them a very successful start. Many exhibitors return year after year. The fair provides one of their best opportunities for exposure of their products to the general public. Booths are open to any business or individual from throughout the state and is not limited to Utah County businesses only. The fair will be hosting several night performances this year, including in-cluding a concert featuring DAN SEALS, and professional wrestling, starring allstars from the AWA wrestling association. These events are certain to draw a large crowd, along with, the finale on Saturday night being a demolition derby which always proves to be a crowd pleaser. Those wishing additional information in-formation on booths or tickets to the evening performances can call 379-8398 379-8398 or 423-1180. years, the service averaged 200-300 calls per month. Most frequent calls concerned quitting smoking and questions about breast, colon and lung cancer. Under the auspices of the National Cancer Institute, the Utah service is one of 23 regional offices associated with cancer research centers throughout the United States. All of the regional centers and NCI headquarters in Bethesda, MD, are linked by electronic mail to facilitate uniform dissemination of the most up-to-date information on cancer. In addition, the center also has access via computer to NCI's database for physicians, Physician Date Query (PDQ), which provides prognostic and treatment information in-formation on all cancers, information in-formation on ongoing research and a directory of physicians and organizations nationwide specializing in cancer treatment. The Cancer Information Service of Utah will be partially staffed by volunteers who will receive 20-30 hours of training leading to certification cer-tification by NCI. Persons interested in volunteering should call University Hospital's Volunteer Services office, 581-2278. saturated fat, which has also been associated with heart disease, Mendenhall says. "Our changes in diet indicate that we may have been placing too much emphasis on cholesterol to the exclusion ex-clusion of other possible causes of heart disease.
