I'ainiew; Represent Sanpete Group attends fllardi of Dimes Approximately 200 volunteers from Utah and neighboring states attended the National Foundation March of Dimes Convention at Hotel Utah in Salt Lake City October 30 and Dimes Birth Defects Centers are studying the causes and the prevention of birth defects, as well as improvement of diagnostic treatment and rehabili tation techniques. The National Voluntary Health Organization also offers professional and and patient public education community services. 31 The Sanpete group numbered ten and was under direction of Oliver Field, Fountain Green, chairman of the Sanpete County Chapter. "While we are interested in elections, how about this dedicated group who have been elected to join in the fight against birth defects through the National Foundation March of Dimes which has thrown some significant punches, Mr. Field said. "We are all acquainted with the one against polio, there is another against the R.H. blood disease, and licensed last June a vaccine against rubella (German Measles) which gives us one more weapon in our fight to conquer birth defects. The new vaccine and other preventative measures were the focus of a two-da- y meeting. It was reported that the 1964-6- 5 epidemic of rubella damaged or destroyed some 50,000 American babies during pregnancy. By assisting in immunization programs, the Chapter wants to see as many boys and girls as possible between one year of age and puberty, vaccinated against rubella. If children do not catch rubella, they cannot spread the disease to pregnant women, the convention goers were told. Scientists at 111 March of North Sanpete High School has use of state's 'Mobile Office' A which brought the best in modern office equipment to four rural Utah high schools last year proved so successful that another trailer is now serving more schools. Mobile Office Education (MOE) an experiment in better business education is sponsored by the Utah State Board of Education. It is designed to prepare students for jobs immediately after high school. A study of the effectiveness of the project showed that students gained more from the office simulation technique than they would in an odinarv classroom. Students also had more motivation to ente business as a career. It showed that the students enjoyed the class more than the typical classroom situation and eagerly looked forward to their exp- -i ience in the trailer. The study was done by a Brigham Young University professor and two giaduate students. Results of the study were so encouraging that the second trailer is now serving Greer River High; Monticello High; Emery High, Huntington; and San Juan High, Blanding. MOE I serves Millard High.

(3) All persons present were opposed to the bow hunt, but agreed to set it after September 1. Reasons for these requests are given as follows by the Sanpete County Cattle 1. There are not enough pheasants in our area to justify a seven-da- y hunt and land owners are tired of having gates left open and livestock chased around" and killed lor full week, when actually very few pheasant are taken after the first three days of the hunt. 2. The elk hunt on the Manti and Fish Lake National Forests has always been a sore spot with livestoekmen, and spoitsmen as well.

The danger is from Larspur poLomng greatly increased when livestock are disturbed u this time of year. From the stand point, who wants to eat elk meat taken dining the breeding season Also, how good of a calf crop can be expected if the hunt during the breeding season? Probably the worst problem is the eiossing of elk from the Manti to the Fish Lake National Forest and vise-ers- a when the hunts are held on different dates. 3. The bow hunt is objected to by just about everyone except the bow hunters themselves. They chase cattle and sheep around during the latter part of August, which Is the worst possible time of our grazing season In relation to Larkspur poisoning. A cow can eat quite a lot of this plant and not be affected by It unless it Is chased, spooked, disturbed, etc. In this event, sudden death is the usual result. In some years, loss from this plant has taken ns high as 20 per cent of the cattle grazing in Manti Canyon. |
