Utah County Child Guidance Clinic Elects New Board of Directors; Lays Future Plans By PEGGY WIIITWOOD A new board was elected for the Utah County Child Guidance Clinic at the meeting Friday afternoon in the Utah County Commissioners' offices. Dr. Robert L. Egbert of the BYU was elected as president! succeeding Dean "Worlton of Lehi, the outgoing president, who retains a post on the executive board. Other members of the new executive board include Mrs. Stella II. Oaks, Provo, vice president; IWrs. LeGrande Young, secretary, and Howard Maycock, treasurer, both of Springville. Board members include James Anderson, Spanish Fork; J. Richard Brown, Provo; Mrs. Delbert Chipman, American Fork; Elmo A. Gray, Lehi; Mrs. Elsa V. Harris, Provo; J. Leonard Harris, Mapleton; Mrs. Jerry W. Hill, Pleasant Grove; Mrs. Allen L. Hodgson, Payson;- James B. Nelson, American Fork; Allen B. Sorensen, Provo; Dr. Talmage M. Thomson, Pleasant Grove; Mrs." Roland Tidd, Orem; Dr. Mrs. Whitlock, Provo; Loyd Kenneth R. Whitwood, Orem; Dr. Eugene Wiemers, Provo, and Mrs. Don L. Spainhower, Spring Lake. On the Advisory committee are Dr. Mark K. Allen, Provo; Provo, L. H. (Curt) Curti, Orem; Dr. Owen P. Provo; Dean Jones, Spanish Fork; Juvenile Judge Monroe J. Paxman," Provo; Dr. C. M. Smith, Provo; Mrs. Willard Orem; Mrs. J. Archie , - Hen-inge- r, Yer-gense- V VmalBBl ... n, Brockbank, Spanish Fork and Mrs. Ray G. Schwartz, Provo. Dr. Egbert suggested that the executive committee be enlarged by two vice presidents and added that the executive committee could meet weekly to consider recommendations from the various committees and their recommendations could then be voted on by the entire board at the monthly meetings. The motion passed that the two new vice presidents be added with the nominating committee to assist in making the appointments by the next board meeting. Dr. Egbert suggested taking two more weeks of consideration in the decision of moving the clinic to Provo and the hiring of a new psychiatric social worker, both recommended by Dr. Mar-loHarston, director of the clinic. He felt that the executive committee should meet for a careful financial analysis before a decision could be' made. The clinic now has its offices in Springville. In a discussion of the advisability of the move, it was pointed out that the clinic would probably benefit by being closer to the center of population. However, the biggest advantage would be in acquiring more usable space in the house considered just off Third South and First East, and there would be seven rooms compared to the four now being used in the Springville location.
