Just two minutes later, a unit matching the description was seen by him and he gave chase, following at speeds of 100 miles an hour through heavy traffic between Malad, Idaho and Tremonton. Cars Off Road Wharton said they ran several cars off the road during the chase. When the van approached the Crossroads intersection, the driver saw Officer Johnson with his car blocking the south-- , bound lane of the highway, but couldn't get around the car because of traffic coming from the opposite direction.

We had an excellent working relationship with the doctors who chose Brigham City to practice. We never had a squabble, said Call. He said choice of Hospital Corporation of America to assume delivery of health care couldt have been better. Were proud of our choice of HCS. Their performance is evidenced in that they have already lived up to what we expected of them, he added. Call said other health corporations were interested in building a hospital in Brigham City and had a firm offer from one in California. The offer came at a time when the Call family was contemplating a $1.5 million expansion and remodeling. And the fact the hospital was privately owned placed it on the tax rolls. And the fact HCA is also private and will continue to pay taxes is another factor Call said helped cement.,the agreement.-I- Ajij J JA Old Hospital will be purchased by Wayne Call of Brigham City and will either be converted to offices or a retirement home for the elderly, said Call, Some equipment and supplies will be moved to the new hospital, private clinics and doctors have purchased some and a truck load of some of the remainder will be Sent to aid the Guatemala earthquake As for the old hospital, it victims.

Meanwhile, as patients were settled into their new rooms, the Ron Rathbones of Corinne were planning to perform a first at the new hospital. Mrs. Rathbone gave birth to a boy at 12:11 p.m. Saturday, the first in the new facility. Dr. Gregg B. Wilding was the physician who performed the delivery. Employe Insurance Before the current budget year began July 1, city leaders were advised that the cost of health and accident insurance for employes would increase by 40 percent. To minimize the cost increase, the council voted to include a $100 deductible feature. However, they didnt realize at the time that life insurance previously enjoyed by the workers would also be dropped. Mayor Harold B. Felt said when this was discovered, negotiations was pursued with the Utah League of Cities and Towns which supplies group insurance, to correct the difficiency. The result was an agreement to provide essentially the same coverage as past without $100 deductible at a 22 years percent increase in premium costs. Councilmen moved quickly to adopt the expanded coverage, effective immediately- It means the city will pay montly premiums of $27.82 for each individual employe or $32.31 (half the cost) for those who also choose dependent coverage. This will increase the annual cost to the city by about $6,000 and is approximately $1,500 more than budgeted. Mayor Felt noted, however, that an upward adjustment will be required if claims exceed 93 percent of the premiums for a period.

But for other items, such as sporting good meny.and womens apparel and; appliances, Ogden was the place they most frequently went. Kenston. a market analysist, said the survey seemed to indicate that almost half of the retail dollar was going to Ogden, but was probably less than this because the survey did not ask how much was spent. Improvements shoppers thought necessary were wider selection of merchandise, merchandizing, need for public restrooms and better restaurants.
