Ryan who is 17 will be the host brother to Michael during his school year at Davis and both boys are anticipating an exciting and fun year together. MICHAEL is a handsome youth with a pleasant smile and cheerful personality. His favorite sport is rugby and Coach Kent Draayer is looking forward to Michael teaching Davis High School students the new sport. The coach already had Michael involved in conditioning for the football team. Michael Jamison, center, is a new mem- ber of the Jack Hill family. He is an change student from Tasmania, Australia. With him are Natalie Hill, left, and Lance Hill, right. HE WILL be enrolled as a senior student at Davis High and after graduation will return to his home in Australia where he will be required to complete one more year in high school, before being through with his high school education, as their educational system differs from ours. When Michael left Australia, it was winter there and to arrive in Utah with the near 100 degree tempera'ure, has been an extreme adjustment.

When arriving in Kaysville he felt more at home with the friendly atmosphere exists in the smaller that com- munity. Michael said the food is different, but in time will become accustomed jo it.

THE installation began about three weeks ago and is now almost 40 percent complete, said J. Robert Folsom, director of campus planning at WSC. The work crew is now in- : in the four-steprocess of setting up the seats that will hold the thousands of people from the campus and local communities who will use the new center now volved p scheduled for dedication November 1. FIRST THE team must measure each section of the facility, then holes are drilled into the cement and metal seat and are installed. Following this the frames are then placed and the chair back and seat are then bolted on. TWO TYPES of stats are being implemented in the Events Center. An chair will be located around the upper portion of the building while a cushioned seat chair will be used for the lower levels. The seating at the Weber facility is a good, comfortable spacing, said Mr. Folsom. It is the same as at the University of Utah's Special and is more Events Center than that at Utah State University's Spectrum."

Named To Post NAACP As- sociation has declared war on DR. OPAL PATRICK Dr. Opal Patrick, 920 Garnet Avenue, Layton, has been named to head a new Davis County Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). 12 FROM Des Moines, PTA officials recently announced the tactics to be used in the effort to curb violence. Parents are urged to protest to managers of stations showing excessively violent programs. If theres no response, PTA groups will appeal to the Federal Communications Commission to areas the of county and would control cavation. ex- THE planning commission did not act on the ordinance, but Davis County Planning Commission Administrator Joseph Moore said he anticipated that they will discuss the matter in their meeting early in August. This is the eighth draft of the document that the planning commission has been working on over a two year period. Early in June the county planning commission called for the first hearing on the ordinance, inviting contractors and developers to comment on the ordinance. AT THAT time, attorneys for the excavation companies reviewed the ordinance. Mr. Moore said that he anticipates that if the ordinance is adopted in Davis County, that Salt Lake and Weber Counties will probably adopt a similar ordinance. If the excavation ordinance is passed by the planning commission, they will advise the Davis County Commission that the document be adopted. The county commission will then advertise for another public hearing prior to taking action on the proposed excavation ordinance. MR. MOORE said, at the earliest, the document will not be passed for two months. Within one year after the adoption of the ordinance, all existing mining operations in the county will be required to comply with the provisions. Enforcement of this ruling may be open to litigation, Mr. Moore said. An attorney for one gravel company has said the company will test the legality of this regulation in the courts, Mr. Moore said. MOST of the Davis County residents, who were present at the hearing, questioned how the ordinance would ap- ply to an existing gravel operation, Hall and Gailey, which presently is in operation in East Layton. This site is one of the four that are now located in the unincorporated revoke the THE PTA effort is commendable and deserves wide public support.

HE POINTED out that enforcement of the ordinance will call for a zoning ad- ministrator to inspect ex- cavation sites at regular intervals. If the excavator is not in compliance with the provisions of the ordinance, legal action will be initiated. Any natural resources excavation permit can be revoked if the company fails the to with comply requirements of the natural resources zone, the ordinance states. For failure to comply, the excavator will be required to appear before the planning commission, which will hear the charges. The planning commission can vote to continue the permit, revoke it or modify it. ALIX Frazer, East Layton, questioned Mr. Moore, asking what the regulations on excavators had been in the past. Mr. Moore said that the present Davis County excavation ordinance does not require the detail required by the ordinance. If passed, the new ordinance would require preliminary inventory and analysis, a presite inventory and analysis, a mining operations plan and a reclamation plan. Before the permit is authorized, it requires the signature of seven persons or agencies. This permit must be approved by the owners, operator, health county department, county engineer, county planning commission, county attorney and the Mr. and Mrs. George Sheffield and two children spent the holiday weekend in the Uintas.

She said the Davis Chapter will work with neighboring chapters in Ogden and Salt lake City to provide a means for expressing grievances and concerns as well as to seek appropriate recourse Dr Patric k is a professor of education at the University of Utah grb IF passed, the ordinance would create a natural resources zone which would identify areas which contain natural resources. Approval for extracting such resources as sand, gravel, clay, borrow, stone, rock, top soil and road baje would be allowed only if the permit for excavation was granted by the Davis County Planning Commission and the Davis County Commission. Mr. Moore said the heart of the ordinance is the reclamation plan which requires the excavator to present maps, showing a description of the methods by which the area will be restored.

OTHER questions at the public hearing dealt with questions on noise buffer distances and dust. Richard Smith, East Layton, questioned the decibel level of noise allowable. Mr. Moore said that noise disturbance was difficult to pin down in a court of law, but said the planning commission would pursue that matter further and get more specific on noise levels before the ordinance was passed. He said that decibel levels would have to be established for each site since noise disturbance depends on atmospheric conditions, as well as the typography of the land. MS. FRAZER questioned whether the buffer distance of 100 feet between property owners and the machinery and equipment for the excavation site was adequate. Mr. Moore said the buffer distance was arrived at based on an examination of other ordinances. He said in specific instances, if this distance appears not to be appropriate, the planning commission will change the distance. Mr. Smith also questioned how dust generated from the gravel plant would be controlled. Mr. Moore explained that excavation sites create two kinds of dust-du- st from the operation itself and dust created by heavy winds which blow the disturbed earth. He said that the continual reclaimation, required by the plan, should alleviate the problem. MR. MOORE said the would consider making regulations on how big an area could be excavated in one phase before contractors began excavations at an adjoining site. planners Mr. Smith also questioned whether some limitation on the tyh ' of equipment used, could be required since certain types of brakes created undue noises. Ray Hale, chairman of the planning commission, said, while the commission would look into this matter, "We dont want to restrict developers to the point that they cant move. AFTER the first public hearing, developers were asked to comment on the ordinance and some of their suggestions were incorporated in the ordinance presented at the public hearing. !
