Bursting with the energy en-ergy of the colorful character Dan Storm, his Ute friends, pioneers, pio-neers, Carthage mobs, and more, the exciting new stage version of Lee Nelson's DODular novel The Storm Testament will make its Utah County debut de-but at the Villa Playhouse The atre September 26 through November No-vember 8 at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays, Fri-days, Saturdays, and Mondays. Lee Nelson, the only modern man to kill a buffalo from the back of a galloping horse with a bow and arrow like the Indi ans did, is also one of the few men to blend our local Mormon stories with stories of the mountain men, escaped slaves, and native Americans who populated this area a hundred and fifty years ago! 'The story translates into a noisy, rip-roaring, poignant play that strikes right at the heart, says Artistic Director Bill Brown, who has added his own imagination to the set con struction, complex sound track, and lighting. The stage adaptation adapta-tion done at the Ogden Terrace Plaza Playhouse last year by Beverly Olsen, has been "massaged" "mas-saged" by Villa script writers, including in-cluding Bill and Marilyn Brown, and Troy Deitrick. "You've heard of writing a script by committee. It worked this time," Bill says. "This powerful and spiritual statement revealing the nature of Utah Valley before our Mormon ancestors came here." Dan Storm will be played by the competent Villa Theatre regular Clay Elder; his African friend Ike will be played by an exciting talent tal-ent fresh from Ghana, Charles Albert Davis-Randolph. Dan's good friend, mountain man Beaver Bea-ver George will be played by David Talley, and the little Indian star, Wanasawnee, is played by Gloria Aldred, who has a history of film and acting appearances. Chris Frankhauser will play Benny Potts. Understudies Merlin Salisbury (who also plays Tawats) will be Dan Storm, and Sharlene DeGaston will be Wanasawnee every Saturday. Pottsmouth, the old crook will be played by experienced Steve Macey, and his not-so-friendly son by Andrew An-drew Groves. Andrew's father Bruce Graves plays Boggs and Big Nose Harry. Dan's Uncle Henry is Tony Jensen, and Aunt Sara is Katie Obergfell. Devin Felix is Newafe, Matt Rowley is Grizzly Jones, and "Oh cho nasee" is Heather Roylance. Others include Brother Butler But-ler and Jacques by Don Green, Fritz and Cragen by Drew and Tyler Thorstrom, Captain Harris Har-ris by Warren Williams, and the preacher by the popular Mel Taylor.

However, a recent article nnh- lished in The American Journal of Infection Control reported a study where the rate of infectious disease in the preschool environment was significantly reduced. Conducted . by North Shore University Hos-' pital, the study revealed the effect' of an infection control program that included regular hand washing wash-ing and disinfection with LYSOL brand products. The program resulted in the reduction of respi ratory illness among children by more than one-third and a decrease de-crease in missed school days by almost fifty percent. Here are a few tips that can help parents select a healthier day care environment for their children: Visit the facility during the day when it is in full operation to determine if it is clean, bright and sanitary. Look for a separate diapering area that is away from food preparation prepa-ration areas. Diapering areas can be a point of transmission for Rotavirus, the leading cause of infectious diarrhea in young children. Toys, cribs, countertops and other frequently touched surfaces should be cleaned and disinfected on a regular basis. Make sure there is a fully stocked first aid kit and at least one full-time employee is trained in CPR.
