Whatever the outcme of the vote, Cox said the district will work within its restraints to provide the best education for the students. Cox said even if the leeway passes, he doesn't see much hope in meeting all the future needs of the district. "I don't see Alpine's position among the 40 districts changing appreciably in the next several years unless the valuation is increased," he said.

V' e .vania UVRMC Screens Blood for AIDS The Blood Bank at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center is now screening all blood donations for an antibody associated with Ac- quired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a generally fatal disease that destroys the body's natural immunological defenses. The test for enzyme-linked ELISA for assay indicates the presence of short the antibody to a retrovirus (HTLV-III- ) that is present in the vast majority of AIDS victims. ELISA does not diagnose AIDS, however, because the antibody is also found in nearly half of all gay males who have no AIDS symptoms, people with certain other d diseases, and a small percentage of the general population. Still, if the antibody is found in a donor sample at UVRMC, the blood will not be used for transfublood-relate- sion. "The purpose of the test is to prevent transmission of this deadly disease (AIDS) by blood transfusion," says Valene Johnson, UVRMC blood bank supervisor. Johnson adds, however, that even before the test was developed, blood transfusions were linked with AIDS in only one percent of cases.
