WAYNE Winegar, manager of the water district, and Jim Kostoff, district engineer, both recommended that the $780,000 bid be accepted. They said the Weyher bid was $150,000 better than the next low bid. The construction will double treatment capacity of the Layton plant, Mr. Winegar said. He explained that the construction of a line that ties the Layton plant with the Ogden plant has increased the approved the purchase of three 12,800 gallon stainless need for larger treatment facilities in Layton. steel tanks contingent on their suitability for use as alum THE original cost of constructing the treatment plant was estimated at $1,043,000, but that cost was cut.

They deduce a great deal, often from little tangible evidence. Jack Hannum, Clearfield High football coach, is also a star rodeo Cowboy title at Calperformer and this week won gary Exhibition and Stampede Rodeo in Calgary, Canada. He also won calf roping championship, earning $5,200 cash and a new pickup truck. All-Arou- HANNUM WINS COWBOY HONORS By GARY R. BLODGETT Clearfield High football coach, Jack Hannum has a habit of winning on the gridiron and in the rodeo arena. DURING THE summer, the husky athlete is a topnotch rodeo performer and last Sunday won the 65th annual Calgary Exhibition and Stampede Rodeo Cowboy championship. Coach Hannum, 33, a native of Morgan County but more recently a resident of 2460 S. 2300 West, Wilson, Weber County, won the calf roping title and tied for eighth place in bulldogging to cop the cowboy title. HANNUM WAS returning home from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, this week but was expected to compete in both the Ogden Pioneer Days and Salt Lake Days of 47 rodeos. For winning the division and titles, Jack will be driving a new pickup truck and pocketed more than $5,200 in prize money. Not bad for a few nights of rodeo competition. COACH HANNUM uses his frame to wrestle the calves and steers. He also calls on his expertise as a standout defensive end for Utah States powerful football teams of the early 1960s. In 1964 he was elected and Most Valuable Player while leading the Aggies in pass receptions as an offensive end as well as playing defensive end. Jack replied, Sure, but so is football. Ive been hurt in both. His father lost an eye as a result of a calf roping accident when the rope slipped and the knot hit him in the eye. BUT THAT didnt discourage me much, nor discourage Jack. says. Its exciting he the general public may appear, warned Lynn M. Thatcher, Deputy Director of Health, Department of Social Services, State Division of AS FOR football coaching. Jack directed the Clearfield High Falcons to the Region Two championship last year, losing to West in the state playoffs. Hes been at Clearfield High eight years after a four-yea-r stint at Union High School. but made the most of it by winning the National Collegiate Rodeo Association calf roping championship. Since then. Jack has competed several years in the Rocky Mountain Rodeo Association (RMRA) winning ten four titles and three crowns championships each in calf roping and steer wrestling. HE TOOK up steer wrestling after college days, using one of his fathers retired rope horses. His dad, Arnold, of Milton, Morgan County, was often Jacks hazer (keeping the critter close to the doggers horse). The elder Mr. Hannum was an amateur cowboy for more than 40 years and at age 62 is still active in the Rocky Mountain Rodeo Association. 1 LEARNED about all I know from my father, said Jack. Rodeoing is a difficult business but Im getting a little better with each years experience and maybe some day Ill go at it The Hannum family is three generations of rodeo performers which is common among cowboys. "Dad and I rope while my grandfather was a rider, said Jack. full-tim- IN FACT, Jack and his dad have won numerous team roping titles. Im going to stick to calf roping and steer wrestling. Riding the broncs and bulls is not for me. I tried once to ride a calf when I was a youngster, but even the calf threw me and Ive never been aboard since, he laughed.

USBII Pay 30 Percent County commissioners will pay 30 percent of indigent medical bills submitted by Davis North Medical Center, even though Floyd Morgan, hospital controller, said last week he did not consider that percentage fair. COMMISSIONER Glen If we pay everything, they wont make an effort to collect. County Clerk Rodney Walker said he did not favor paying 50 percent of the bill either since by doing this the commission would set a precedent. Flint said, The policy of the commission is to allocate $35,000 to cover both medical and legal costs of the indigent. The problem is, that while only about $2,000 has been spent on medical costs for the indigent so far this year, the legal budget is running over the estimate. MR. WALKER said this is because costs for defending the indigent has increased since a change in the system has resulted in some cases being carried over from last year. When commissioners took the action to pay 30 percent of the medical bills for the indigent, they said the budget will have to be opened to take care of the legal costs which are running from $10,000 to $15,000 more than estimated. THE $15,000 budgeted to cover indigent medical expenses will be used for that purpose, they said. Commissioners allocated $20,000 for the legal expenses. Commissioner cases commissioners have asked that the IN MOST approval for medical care be given before the patient receives medical attention. In emergency cases where this is not possible, the hospital should contact the commission the next day to get approval for further medical said.

Examples of this latter type of situation are evaporative coolers, decorative ponds ballcocks and in toilet tanks. ONE POTENTIAL source of pollution in the potable water system of a home during the growing season is the garden hose. This is because there are numerous devices that can be attached to a hose which mav cause problems. One such attachment is the aspirator sprayer when filled with fertilizer, weed killer or insect spray. If these chemicals dangerous backflow into the water system because of loss of pressure, the health of an entire family may be jeopardized. ANOTHER dangerous practice is to leave the end of a garden hose submerged in a container or pond containing mixed spray or contaminants. Again, a loss of water pressure could cause the spray to be siphoned back into the drinking water system. These of water possible pressure failure is at any time. during a period of water shortage the possibility of a backflow situation is increased. Protection can be provided by the use of well proven and inexpensive methods. In the considering examples of potential hazards listed above, one should make sure the pipe delivering water to an evaporative cooler ends above the overflow rim. However, BE SURE the ballcock in the toilet is code approved; be sure all water inlets in sinks, troughs, ponds and other such containers are above the overflow rim; be sure not to leave the end of a hose submerged in the contents of sinks, buckets or other containers or ponded water; be sure the lawn sprinkler system is not connected to both the culinary water supply and a pressure irrigation system. without the huge complexes we have evolved.
