Vanilla Fields Hell or highwater ... Monticello John Wesley Powell is usually given credit for the first river descent by through the Grand Canyon. But a new book published by Utah State University Press, Hell or High Water: James Whites Disputed Passage through Grand Canyon," challenges that assertion with the first full account of Whites story and how it became distorted and disparaged over time. The ghost of James White has haunted Powells claims," said John Alley, executive editor at the Press who worked with author Eilean Adams, one of Whites five grandchildren.

Roosevelt Use of marijuana among students at Union High appears to be on the rise with more frequent reports of the drug being sold and students who come to school stoned. The increase was first noticed during the last month and a half of the 2000 - 2001 school year, and has kept pace since school began in September, said Roosevelt Police Officer Mark Murphy, who is currently assigned to patrol Union and the Uintah Basin Applied Technology College. While marijuana use isnt rampant at the school, its definitely being used by more students than in previous years, Murphy said. There have been about four students arrested for drug use since the new school year began, and police have spoken with at least 20 teens who have admitted to using dope," he said. About two dozen others have been reported for Buspected drug use. Uintah Basin Standard Roosevelt Last word on unification ... Tooele Residents and city officials from both sides of the border in Wendover made it clear recently that they would not support a unification study unless they had the last word.

And' again, executives from West Wendovers powerful casino industry insisted the communities stay separate.

Formerly known as the Burt Price Ranch, a parcel pn the southeast corner of the monument is currently owned by the Farm Service Agency, which has offered to transfer the land into the ELMS hands.
