Show Mid vale Jr. High Intersection change in West Jordan meeting will In the near future, motorists and pedestrians should not be absent-mindewhen approaching the intersection of 9000 South and 2700 West. The West Jordan City Council voted unanimously Tuesday to remove two of the now four-wastop signs at the intersection allowing motorists traveling east or west on 9000 South the right of way. The decision was made in an effort to eliminate traffic congestion which occurs during peak rush-hou- r periods. Lance Foster, West Jordan Police Chief, asks citizens to be aware of the anticipated change and guard against excessive speeds which the eliminated stop signs may have a tendency to bring. He says speed limits will be strictly enforced by the West Jordan Police Dept. The stop signs for the north-souttraffic which now read stop" will d discuss Title IX The Midvale Jr. High PTA meeting Mar. 11 will be devoted to a discussion of the Title IX regulation which provides for the elimination of segregated programs in the public schools on the basis of sex.

We do not believe this is advantageous or fair to the people of Midvale. It takes more than one man to fight crime; it takes involved citizens cooperating with their law enforcement officials as well as professional officers with high standards integrity.

I know that Chief Smith has helped part of my family in the past years. I know that he is a very good man and that he is certainly the best chief we have had in Midvale. And in my opinion I think if the council wants to take action they should keep him in and raise his pay. Herbert Lozano Hillcrest High School EDITOR : I always enjoy reading the Jordan Valley Sentinel. I particularly enjoyed the letter to the Editor in last week's issue. I concur with what Mr Nelson wrote, as I have attended public meetings where the Chief of Police has spoken. During the last seven or more years I have seen a definite change for the better in Midvale. As a mother this means that I can feel comfortable in having my children walk to and from school and the shopping area of Midvale. The Chief of Police, Louis S. Smith, has my respect and appreciation for the fine way he conducts himself and the police force of Midvale. Carolyn S. Fitzgerald 255-59- - 0 Sandy North stakes sponsored a dance for the youth.

Maintaining professionalism and effectiveness in the department is no accident. Seventeen years as a police administrator and the best training available qualify Chief Smith. He is doing a good job and we question the wisdom of replacing him for political expediecy. Mayor Twiggs recommends that Louis Smith be retained as Chief of Police. Also, Richard Vincent, the councilman responsible for public safety who knows the quality of Chief Smith's work, recommends that he be retained as head of Midvale's Police Department. It has been reported that the trouble stems from a personality clash between Mr Smith and one of the councilmen. Many individuals are quick to point out that Chief Smith has successfully kept politics out of police work. Any city official or even his own wife is just as likely to get a ticket from a Midvale patrolman as you are. This is not the first time that political pressure has caused a confrontation between Chief Smith and one or more members of the council. In the past the majority of the council members have had the good sense to back the chief in his determination to do his duty in a manner. We hope the new members of the council will do the same. We need a man with Mr Smith's ability and integrity to serve our city. To actively voice support for Chief Smith phone your city councilman and attend the city council meeting where this issue will be decided. Paul Christianson Joe M. Sanchez Roger Jensen Willard A.

New homes built in that area are to be constructed having 1200 to 1300 square feet, two-ca- r garages, and a mixture of brick or stone fronts with masonite or stripboard sides. The council requested Lewis Homes to utilize four or five different building plans to add beauty and variety visually to the subdivision. When finished, the new homes are expected to cost in the neighborhood of $40,000. Within this subdivision 7 percent of the land will be dedicated to the city for a park and a retention basin for flood control.
