SALT LAKE CIT- Y- In a cooperative effort to enhance the prosecution of domestic violence cases, Utah officials have teamed up with Polaroid Corporation to cameras to provide instant-imag- e police and others involved in prosecution of domestic violence cases. Utah Attorney General Jan Graham emphasized the importance of documenting injuries suffered abuse victims: by "Words alone cannot always describe the true nature of an injury, but photographs can be the proof a jury really needs to see in order to convict an abusive spouse or parent.", Graham also indicated the use of instant photography could result in "such compelling evidence that abusers might otherwise have insisted on going to trial will instead plead guilty." That would save the victim the trauma of testifying in court, said Graham. Monica Owens, who leads a victim advocate program for Salt Lake City Police, added that photographs might also make it possible to prosecute cases in which victims, perhaps out of fear of retribution, decide not to testify against the abuser. It was the need to document abuse and assist victims that prompted the Utah Domestic Violence Advisory Council to purchase 100 cameras and photography kits from Polaroid at a reduced cost of $60 a kit, a fraction of the retail cost of $300 each. Lynda Whitlock, chair of the advisory council, is grateful for Polaroids generosity and indicated the company is also providing free specialized training to agencies that receive cameras. Polaroid representative Mary Ann Rasler explained that two training sessions have already been completed in Provo and Ogden. At those sessions, models were professionally madeup to appear battered with varying degrees of bruises and wounds. Instructors from the Polaroid School of Law Enforcement Imaging then demonstrated how to use special cameras and light- - ATTENTION PARENTS!!

In practice, the cameras will be invaluable to police and prosecutors because they will make it possible to show effects of an assault over time. Graham explained that "what only looks like a slight bruise shortly after an assault may in fact deepen in color and become much larger within a few days of the beating. Juries, and abusers, need to know that in order to appreciate the severity of an attack." Seventy three of the 100 cameras have already been given to agencies from throughout the state, reported Diane Stuart, director of Utahs domestic violence programs. Given that demand for cameras, Stuart hopes that more can be purchased at the reduced price to accommodate all requests from Utah law -- Wayne L. Dahl Boyd Sunderland Boyd C.

Parents, grandparents, neighbors, educators, students, and all community members can work together to achieve goals of safer, more disciplined, and drug-fre- e schools; computers available in classrooms; improved reading skills; making sure academic standards are high; preparing young people for careers; and making college more accessible. Parents can help by volunteering at school, reading to young children, limiting TV, talking with youngsters about values, explaining dangers of drugs, alcohol, tobacco. Community members can help by becoming tutors, helping with adult literacy efforts, creating safe corridors for children going to school. Teachers and principals should make parents feel welcome in the school and include them in Cavities in children are on the decrease SALT LAKE CIT- Y- The proportion of American children with no cavities has doubled in the past 20 years. The American Dental Association reports that in 1975, only 26 percent of children In ages 5 to 17 were cavity-fre- e. 1995 that number jumped to 55 percent. The decline is directly attributable to fluoridated water and toothpaste, the use of dental sealants and a higher rate of dental visits.
