AUGUST ARTISTS exhibiting y welcome mat out for Japanese visitors BC Over 80 local residents gathered Sunday, July 27, for an informal potluck garden party at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Hannum to greet a group of 12 high school students from Japan sponsored by the Experiment in International Living, Brattleboro, Vt. The students arrived earlier by bus alter traveling to Salt Lake City by airplane on Sunday, and were met by 12 local families who will adopt them into their homes for a three-weeperiod. Hopefully, states Mrs. Hannum, area chairman for the Experiment in International Living, through family and group activities the Japanese students will learn about life in this area of the world and also share their own way with their American hosts and friends. Richard MacFarlane of the Greater Brigham City Area Chamber of Commerce presented each student with a packet of information on the local area, and Mayor Harold Felt arrived later in the evening to offer an official welcome. Cory Sackett of the Palace Playhouse also attended and presented each student with a complimentary ticket for Annie Get Your Gun. k Undergo Testing Other changes important in relation to personnel, he said, Born in Salt Lake City Arlyne M.

Capturing children at play provides many moods in her sculpturing. are applicant screening for employment, roll call training and placing officers in standard uniforms. Studdert said each new officer is stimulated to a battery of psychology and aptitude tests, ' oral interview and thorough .'ackground check. Previous education and experience are also assessed prior to hiring. Each patrol shift begins 15 minues early with a briefing by the previous shift commander activities the shift encountered. Some aspect of training is covered at each on session, he noted. When a poll was taken of citizens ideas concerning the department, one of the items pointed out most often was the lack of standardization in appearance. New uniforms, badges and hats were purchased, along with design of a new shoulder patch, said the chief. Officers arc constantly reminded of their appearance, he added. Youth Bureau The department has a federally-funded youth bureau now functioning with two officers to work expressly with schools and in other juvenile related areas.

The latest Department of Commerce figures show that 7.5 percent of the local population is now 65 or over. In other words, about one out of every 13 in the area is in that age bracket. Throughout the country as a whole, more than 22 million men and women, one out of 10, are over 65.

The chief pointed out that his department has begun to extradite criminals to Utah where they were not in the past. The Utah Division of Corrections pays the tab, he said, and the department has cleared up felony cases three to five years old. The animal shelter has received improvements, with installation of heating and fresh air systems. The animal control truck has been enclosed to protect the animals from heat and cold, also. lated, The approach A second officer has been added to provide better cov erage and the hours at the shelter modified to better meet the needs of the public. He noted the department has from the obtained funding Burea of Indian Affairs for two Indian .policemen for Intermountain school. For the first time, the department has been able to have a direct line with the Utah Bureau of Identification and the National Crime Information computer in Washington, D.C. Federally funded, the equi- pment allows instant search of records to determine if a suspect is wanted or recovered item has been stolen. It is used by all county law enforcement agencies. Studdert said the department has just hosted the largest Utah Peace Officer Association convention in the history of the state in which some 600 officers attended. Completed in time for the event was a new firearms training range east of the city. Officers from several departments contributed time and labor to construct the range. A new range building is also located at the site. No city funds were used. For the first time, a woman police officer has been hired in Brigham City. At least five officers have obtained bachelor of science degrees and several more are attending classes toward police science degrees.
