Show The Newspaper Thursday, July 23, 1981 Page A9 Old cemetery to get new fence "The bedraggled barbed wire fence now surrounding the Park City Cemetery soon will be torn down to make room for a wrought iron and natural stone model. According to City Coun-cilwoman Coun-cilwoman Tina Lewis, a contract con-tract has been signed with a wrought iron worker in Henefer, who will be hammering ham-mering away at his shop for approximately the next two months. Lewis said Ralph Jones will assemble parts of his creation in Henefer, then will bring it to Park City for the final construction. Jones was recommended by the Utah State Historical Society. According to Lewis, the fence will be "absolutely beautiful." It will span the two sides of the cemetery, plus the front along Highway 248, and will stand four feet high. Every ten feet there will be large tubular posts, with small vertical metal slats set every seven inches in between. Three entrances en-trances will be adorned with eight-foot-high gates swinging from natural stone pillars. The recently-adopted 1981-82 1981-82 city budget allocated $45,000 for the fence and gates, plus an additional $5,000 to pave the roads winding wind-ing through the cemetery. Lewis said some im provements also will be made to the sprinkling system. "It's a huge job," said Lewis. "The fence is about 2,200 lineal feet. The old fence will be torn down and some grading work will be done to make room for the new fence, hopefully in the next week." Lewis also commented that the stone pillars will have lights on top to illuminate the proposed bike path to run past the cemetery. By the end of the summer, Lewis predicted, Park City's cemetery will be surrounded by a fence far more attractive attrac-tive than what currently exists. "I'm really excited. It's going to be just beautiful. ..a real asset to that beautiful cemetery." A Salt Lake City man was arrested July 18 and charged with two counts of aggravated assault after he allegedly stabbed one man and struck another with a beer bottle during an altercation alter-cation at the Alamo Bar on Main Street. According to the police department, the manager of the Alamo became concerned last Saturday night when members of the Sundowners motorcycle club and. the rugby team flooded into the bar. Fearing there might be a fight, he asked the police to make a routine bar check. The police found,1 no problems and left the bar. Shortly before midnight, officers found Salt Lake resident Fred M. Bryon on the ground near the carwash at the intersections of Highways High-ways 224 and 248. He apparently ap-parently had been stabbed in the stomach and was taken to the Park City Health Clinic, after which he was transferred to Holy Cross Hospital in Salt Lake. Friends with Bryon told police he was stabbed by Alvin Johnson, John-son, a member of the motorcycle motor-cycle club, at the Alamo. Police returned to the Alamo and discovered that Park City resident Mark J. Evans had been struck on the head with a beer bottle. He, too, was taken to the local clinic, where he received stitches for the wound. Evans claimed Johnson had struck him. Officers said witnesses were reluctant to identify Johnson as a suspect, apparently ap-parently fearing retribution by the Sundowners. Enough information was gathered, however, and Johnson was searched. According to the police report, Johnson had a four-inch Buck knife in a scabbard, and noted that it was covered with fresh blood. Johnson was taken to the Summit County Jail in Coalville, where he was held in lieu of $25,000 bail. He was due to be arraigned before Judge Larry Keller on Wednesday Wed-nesday morning, after this edition went to press. ! In other police action : The Recreation Department Depart-ment reported the theft of a Bell and Howell 16mm movie projector from their offices in the Memorial Building July 14. The room in which the projector was kept apparently ap-parently was unoccupied and unlocked at the time of the theft. The projector was valued at $800. Heber City resident Gregory Overn was arrested July 17 and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol after he was involved in-volved in an accident that caused approximately $400 in damages to the fence surrounding the city cemetery onHighway248. Dr. Robert Wilson of Park City told police he was nearly struck by a car while jogging on Highway 248 July 16, and that the driver then came back and struck him twice in the face. According to Wilson, he "made a gesture" at the driver when he narrowly missed him as he jogged across Homestake Road. The driver turned the car around, he said, and when the doctor approached him, the suspect struck him twice in the face. The police said they made contact with the suspect, who offered a different story. According to the suspect, he passed by Wilson at a distance of 10 feet, and as he did so, he heard something hit his car. He turned around and came back to the jogger, who he said approached him in a threatening manner. According Accor-ding to the suspect, he "slapped" the doctor twice in self-defense. The police still are investigating the complaint. Talley Lynne of Park City reported to police the theft of jewelry and blouses worth $4,700 from her home on Empire Avenue last week. HHeaMa IHiimtf Venereal disease part I By BobReschke Summit Co. Health Dept. There are some readers who might question the appropriateness ap-propriateness of such a topic appearing in "Health Hints." However, there are a number of reasons why this subject has a very direct relationship to public health. For the week ending July 3, 1981, the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta reported that the cumulative number of cases of gonorrhea in the United States totaled 463,413, and syphilis cases were in excess of 14,000. It must be made clear that these figures are derived from reported cases and those found as a result of epidemiological investigations. investiga-tions. The truth of the matter is that veneral diseases continue to be grossly under-reported, and in essence, we are seeing perhaps the "tip of the iceberg." VD continues to be one of the nation's leading communicable com-municable disease problems. pro-blems. Since 1957, VD rates have continued to rise, despite numerous attempts to change its skyrocketing course. Future articles will deal with this specific disease group in an attempt to acquaint the reader with symptoms and the treatment available. Historically, VD has been on this planet for thousands of years. Ample evidence exists in Holy Scripture as to its presence in the days ot Moses and David and in the nation of Israel. During this same time in history, the Chinese recorded the treatment treat-ment of certain diseases which affected the genitourinary genito-urinary systems of males and females. Roman, Greek, Persian and Arabic writings also contain fairly accurate descriptions ot contagious disease outbreaks that many scholars now feel were related to VD. In 20th century cen-tury terms, VD is a people problem, has been a people problem and will continue to be a people problem. In Part II next week, this people problem will be discussed further. ff n PARK CITY PROPERTIES IN PARK CITY EVERY DAY CAN BE A PAYDAY!

An informal ground-breaking ceremony was held recently honoring (he construction start of the new Wildwood project. Slated for 28 studio, one- and two-bedroom units, the site is located between Empire and Woodside Avenues at the base of the Park City Resort parking lot. The developers of Wildwood, Mike Sanders. Devon Stone and Randy Allred agree that Wildwood will be energy efficient, spacious and unique each individual unit has its own fireplace, sauna and soaking hot tub. A six-month six-month construction plan has been scheduled which would bring the completion com-pletion date into the 1981-82 ski season. Some added features, noted the developers, are excellent fire protective construction, fire sprinkler system, underground parking, fire retardant treated cedar shake shingles, R-1 wall insulation and R-38 ceiling insulation, sound control insulation, kitchens including in-cluding range, oven, hood, dishwasher, garbage disposal, refrigeratorfreezer and washer and dryer, and a beautiful furniture package included. Marketing agents, Margery Hadden and Ray Ingandela, of Real Estate Coalition in Park City, underscored the central location of the project which "can't be beat." In addition to the ideal location and obvious quality, Hadden noted the fact that units could be "tied up at today's prices" without having to close until completion this winter. This would allow the purchaser to benefit from any appreciation that might accrue during the interim period without ever making a mortgage payment.
