' 1 Alter Juvenile Courts? For the past several years, Utahs juvenile court system has been a target for criticism and the source of much conftroversry. At the heart of the dispute has been the contention of many, Including the Utah Bar association, that juvenile courts should be taken from under the jurisdiction of the state welfare commission. m- Those gray hairs showing up among the gold on Pow Wows cranium can be passed off as coming And it doesn't bother prematurely. bit when an old acquaintance says a with glee Hey, lookit there, you're getting No this doesn't make a matter.
