Show v i By TOM BUSSELBERG FARMINGTON The Davis County Library Board has approved formation of a review committee that would respond to complaints that either a book is left out of the library or should be removed, as was reported last week. IN ADDITION, a revised policy affecting purchase of re- ligious books was enacted, taken from the Weber County Library policy. It says: "Religious materials shall be purchased according to the needs ot the community served. The library shall strive to maintain an impartial recognition of all religions while specializing in none. Revision of the book selection policy, particularly that area related to religious books, was asked by the board upon reinstatement of County Librarian Jeanne Layton in January. to protect our from being forced to been notified of the new poliC) and asked to cooperate Supporting s jvh a mov e w as Board Member Sharon Shum-wa- y Smith of Layton.

In fact, the issue threatens to surface again w ith another complaint lodged Stephen. Ashmead displays a solution used in his science fair project. He has discovered a way to increase the protein in vegetables and plants. NETS DISCOVERY Bv DICK STLCKI FRUIT HEIGHTS A science fair experiment in Davis County has netted an important discovery in relation to world food supply. STEPHEN ASHMEAD, 13, 304 South Mountain Road, took home top honors for his sciepcefaip project at Kaysvil-l- e Jrgfligh.fij. He will represent Kaysville Jr. High at the up coming regional science fair to be held at Weber State College. D. WAYNE and Jill Ashmead are very proud of against shelving that book. In last weeks special board meeting where the revised selection policy w;as passed, strong feelings surfaced as to what it should include. COUNTY Comm. Morns F. Swapp, who also serves on the board, wanted to include a section indicating books should reflect community standards a stance he said was reflected in a stale attorney generals opinion. The words, and reflect would community standards have been added to the Objectives of Selection" portion their son Stephen who is following in his fathers footsteps, who is a prominent local scientist. Stephens project was to see if the amount of protein in plants could be increased in order for people to receive a higher amount of protein in their diets. THE UNITED Nations has recently. said tjhat most of the people in the world do not get enough protein in their diets. Presently, the main source of protein in our diets is from meat. But, with rising inflation, we have seen meat prices rise to heights which put such a strain on most budgets that people have started to cut back dramatically on the amount of meat in their diets. THE IDEA behind Stephens project is that since plants like vegetables are much less expensive than meat, if he could increase the amount of protein'in the plants while they are being grown, people would be able to get more protein in their diets once again." Through a controlled test in which the plants were fed nut of the policy which says, rients. Stephen was able to increase the amount of iron in the plants. BY USING sophisticated scientific equipment to determine the amount of iron in the plants, it was found that there was double the amount of iron in the controlled plants over the regularly grown plants. This verifies that the amount of protein had been increased. ON AN average, there was an increase of 10 percent more protein in plants that were treated with iron twice a week Volunteer (Goriner Retired and busy define Lucille P.

THE DEFENDANT, Ronald Lemolin Kelly, 21, of 1820 Porter Ave., Ogden, pleaded guilty to the reduced charge in Second District Court in Farmington. He pleaded guilty to a charge of running down Airman Gloria C. Beth, 19, stationed at Hill AFB, last Jan. 20. Judge Thomley K. Swan ordered a probation report on the defendant before pro- nouncing sentence. AIRMAN BETH told police that she had accepted a ride home from a party with Kelly. She said he made sexual advances toward her and then drove onto the interstate highway. She added that she fought briefly with the defendant and then jumped from his auto when he stopped in the northbound lane. She said she ran across the highway and attempted to flag down a southbound car. ACCORDING to the police report, the defendant turned his auto around and headed south where he reportedly tried to run down the victim with his car. Airman Beth was struck by the vehicle and suffered cuts and bruises, but was not hospitalized, grb The faces are LAYTON familiar but some of the merchandise, and all moneysaving bargains, are new.
