He noted that as Chief of Staff he will sit on the Board of Trustees of the hospital and will chair the Medical Executive Committee which deals with physican credentialing and discipline, and the overall issues of quality of care and level of medical services provided in the local area. The people of this area arc very fortuante to have the group of ts and such services as the spe-cilais- Regional Cancer Center available and now resides with his wife Kristina and their six children in Bloo- compilation stage ST. GEORGE - A study of the Virgin River drainage which takes in all resources water, soil, arable land, range, forest, and crops -- is currently in the compilation stage, according to Soil Conservation Service project director Clayton J. Ramsey. Ramsey said the finished study will utilize existing studies and new updates to present an accurate picture of the resources available in the Virgin River basin and should identify present or potential problems with resources, especially in the light of future development, and hopefully will come up with some potential solutions. Ramsey says his work will dovetail with work done by the Division of Water Resources, the Water Conservancy District, the Army Corps of Engineers, and other agencies involved in the management and control of natural resources in this area. The area's most valuable resource, water, will be one of the study's focuses. At present the State Division of Water Rights is conducting a detailed study of the amount of water available in the Virgin River drainage, the uses to which it is put, and the amount going unused. Ramsey says information collected in the state's study will be shared, and some of the aerial and topographic field studies currently underway at the state level will also be collecting information for the Soil Conservation Service. Information will also be utilized from previous sources, such as the work done on the feasibility of the Dixie Project many years ago, Ramsey says. When completed, hopefully in cording to Washington County Sheriff Glenwood Humphries who was at the scene. Humphries said deputy sheriff Jim Webb received an emergency call at approximately 9 p.m., and he was at the scene a short time later. The Washington County Search and Rescue team and the St. George Fire Dept, also responded to the call. Ramsey explained. We can analyze the water available, irrigation inefficiencies, and how to extend irrigation. I think the information we collect and compile will be a big boon to anyone in this area who's planning to do anything at all with land.' The completed study will be made available to anyone who needs it or wants it, Ramsey said. Because of the rough terrain, Humphries said it took until after 1 a.m. before Farnsworth could be taken out of the ravine in a Stokes body cage. She was then transported by ambulance to DMC. A hospital spokesman said Farnsworth was attended to, but needed no further medical treatment by hospital personnel. She was released without having to spend the night. Q Other appointments made at the annual meeting include: Dean t; Duke, M.D., Chief of MK McGregor, M.D., Treasurer, LeRoy Anderson, MX)., Chief of Medicine; Mel Carter, M.D., Chief of Family PracticePediatrics; Ron Crouch, M.D., Chief of Surgery; and Grant Carter, MX)., Chief of Ostetrics and Gynecology.

Plyler, opens Saturday, July 25, in the dining room of the Bit N'Spur Restaurant and Saloon. An artist's reception will be held from 4 p.m., when Plyler will speak about his work. Plyler's passion is juxtaposing forms to expose, in black and white, subtle gradations of color created by the play of light on textured surface. Although subject is secondary to these formal aesthetic components, the individual character of each subject, whether landscape or portrait, is powerfully captured. Bom of American parents in Japan in 1955, Plyler has travelled and lived in Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Guatemala. His photography has won numerous awards and sits in several permanent collections, including The Museum of the American Indian in New York City and the San Diego Museum of Man. Plyler graduated with honors with a degree in American Indian studies from the University of Nevada in Las Vegas. A 1 980 visit to Guatemala changed his focus from Southwest desert landscapes to candid portraiture. Currently living in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Plyler is represented by several galleries. 2-- kjg Register Now.. .673-0- 1 or 628-683- 5 P.O. Box K.K.

One big advantage in conducting the study now, Ramsey says, is the availability of the state's automatic graphic reference system computer. This system has the ability to compile studies and drawings, maps and graphs so that they can be retrieved electronically and also can be overlaid to determine how certain activities or conditions will affect the natural resources of the area. "We can produce overlays to show where development can have certain effects on the resources, and this should be a vast advantage in making the study meaningful to those who need this type of information, Ramsey explained. Ramsey says a portion of his work involves compiling and comparing previous studies, but some field studies, especially on range and cropland, will be necessary. We need to be able to estimate production, potential production, erosion rates, and so on, Ramsey noted. "The study will present an economic analysis, so we can say, Woman rescued after four hours in ravine ST.
