"I'm Walter Mondale," he said. "You may have heard of but you may not really me know me. "I grew up in the farm towns of southern Minnesota. My dad was a preacher and my mom was a music teacher. We never had a dime. But we were rich in the values that are important... "They taught me to work hard, to stand on my own, to play by the rules, to tell the truth, to obey the law, to care for others, to love our country and to cherish our faith." Rep. Ferraro shares those principles, said Mondale, and in choosing her, "we open a new door to the future." He added that "'Mr. Reagan calls it 'tokenism.' We call it America " Rep Ferraro, 48 and a lawyer before going to Congress in 1979. is on Democratic issues after chairing the party's platform committee this well-verse- d year.

"Kem and I would be in favor of strengthening the securities division staff for better enforcement. Compared to other staffs, our state is somewhat thin," said Ferguson in a prepared release. Public hearings being conducted as part of a d effort to curb major investment fraud have been an for the Provo mayor who serves on the task force.

"Westridge alone will human terms, is unconscionable." Ferguson believes that, along with educating the public about fraud, some key changes in the law are vital. He thinks the securities division should be allowed to orders attempt on fraudulent investment schemes. Currently, scheme operators run their swindles for long periods of time before the law puts them out of business. "Also, we ought to consider allowing victims to sue for treble damages because by the time attorneys fees are paid, the suit ends up costing as much as the potential award," Ferguson said. cease-and-desi- st im- mediately save the district $3.5 million by not having to build a new school for additional students."

"We should be rewarding the student who does well in certain classes," said Owens. "If, for example, a student takes a 9th grade math class and does excep- tionally well, university credit could be granted." By implementing year-roun- d the savings in expenditures could be used to improve teacher salaries and other concerns, he said.

Sheriff's Officers Investigate Death of Woman Near Benjamin - FATAL The body of a woman in her late 60s was found in a remote area of Benjamin early this morning and Sheriff's deputies were investigating the death. When The Daily Herald went to press the identity of the woman was not known. At least one witness said he saw a woman matching the dead woman's description walking in the area Thursday evening. A Provo SEXUAL ASSAULT woman now says she was also sexually assaulted by the man who entered her residence wearing a ski mask last week. The woman told police last week that a man wearing a ski mask entered her apartment and cut ljer with a knife. He told her he would return to hurt her if she called police. She has since told police that when the man was in her apartment he also sexually assaulted her. She said she did not report the rape earlier because she was - too embarassed. Investigators said the woman has since moved from her apartment. Provo Police EXTRADITION detective Don Messick was in Houston, Texas today working on the pending extradition of a Utah County man. Police investigators said the man is charged in connection with felony gun theft and distributing a controled substance. - ASSAULT Orem police questioned a man at the Orem Community Hospital Thursday night who says another man purposely charged him in a truck, knocking him to the ground. Larry C. Nelson, 45, Orem, was treated for and accelerated enough to knock her onto the hood. The victim complained of leg injuries and pains on her right side. Lt.

He told police a Springville man began shoving him around at the construction site at the Interstate St. off ramp where he was taking asphalt samples. Then the suspect got in his truck and tried twice to hit Nelson. Four people witnessed the incident. An Orem woman was struck by a vehicle just after midnight Wednesday at Naugle's in Orem after an argument that began between the victim and an American Fork man as they drove north on State St. The incident report said the woman went to Naugle's to place an order and the man followed, getting out of his car to continue the argument and finally breaking a rear side window of the victim's car. She and a girlfriend reportedly struck the man, and then the victim stood blocking his car, demanding money lor the broken window. The man got in his car 1 ing. A DOG ATTACK on and bit a day at. 232 E. 700 sending the boy to the dog jumped boy ThursN., Orem, hospital for treatment of a puncture wound on the head. The mother of Jared indication, not many motorists object to the law. Capt. John Fraser at the Provo Police Dept said his patrolmen issued only five tickets to violators since the law went into effect July 1. Sgt. Fran Fillmore. Orem Public Safety Division, said only two tickets were issued to violators in Orem in July. "If that's all of the parents who are not complying. I am surprised." Mayor Squire remarked Provo Capt. Fraser said. "The police are not interested in fining nd making their lives people miserable They just want people to restrain their children " Sgt. Fillmore is an outspoken proponent of the restraint law, believing wholeheartedly that it saves children's lives. In the first two weeks of July, three children in car safety seats escaped injury in accidents in which the unrestrained motorists were not so lucky. "I know of one terrible head-o- n collision on State Street where two police officers were hospitalized and a woman and passenger were in critical condition. But the two little babies strapped into back seats weren't even upset," Fillmore recalled. In another accident, one car ran a stop sign and slammed into the side of a car where a baby was in a safety seat. The baby had some glass cuts on his arm, while the seat he was in "was knocked sufficiently sideways that it hit a young boy on the other side of the car and possibly injured his ribs," Fillmore reported. "I guarantee this law saved three lives. I wish all people would use car seats for children." he said. Fillmore observed that more people have car seats in their vehicles now "or maybe I've just become aware of it because of the law." "It wasn't long ago that you never saw them, Now they're getting very common," Fraser agreed. Utah Highway Patrol administrators decided to treat the first month in which the law went into effect as an educational period, giving only warnings rather than tickets, said Gary Whitney, information officer. "There probably were a few tickets issued in cases of flagrant violations," he added. Whitney said the UHP does not keep track of tickets issued for safety restraint violations. Mayor Squire recalled when cars were first equipped with safety belts. People have resisted using them since the beginning, but it seems to Squire that children aren't as resistant to safety seats. lEi Tl iftil sets of golf clubs and camping and fishing gear in the bed.

County Issues Bat Warning Health DepartThe ment has issued a warning about rabid bats, after one infected with rabies was found in West Provo. On July 18 a bat was found in the backyard of a home near 3100 West and 400 South, Provo. Subsequent test at the Utah Department of Health laboratory in Salt Lake City confirmed that the bat was infected with rabies, according to Dr. Joseph K. Miner, Health Director. A dog in that area had probably had contact with the bat, so it it was quarantined. Since the dog had not been properly immunized for rabies, it was immediatley destroyed when the bat's rabies was confirmed. Animal control officers are still investigating, but no other exposure to the bat is suspected. Miner said any bats, raccoons, skunks, foxes and any other wild members of the dog family that have warned him that he is net in compliance with all the necessary ordinances. "We want to talk to some of the powers that be one more time," he said. "We're really trying to get this thing done right " Please Mzrry My Xellie didn't open Thursday night as planned but rather gave a free dress rehearsal for nearly 60 people who showed up for what was going to be opening night at the new Bridal Veil Falls amphitheater.
