Explaining Mountain Bell's position in the matter was Phil Selander, district manager for residential service to northern Utah. He was contacted by telephone Wednesday morning. THE WAY that the company is set up, as we serve new subdivisions that develop we look at the most economical way to serve them. The Weber Basin Water Conservancy District (having an 825 prefix number) has been there for quite some time. But with opening of the south Ogden computerized office about a year ago it becomes considerably less ex- pensive and means a delay in having to ask for a rate increase out of that office.

THAT WOULD mean a resident, for instance, wanting a 376 number would have his line routed through South Ogden and back "THERE Tri-Oa- to Layton to provide the Layton number. It would cost extra. What we did in that area and do in all is we go in, take the existing services there and generally give them (residents) the option where they are already there to keeping the who have other numbers who were there before but if they moved they would lose that. We call it the grandfather status,' Mr. Selander said. That is why some residents formerly having 825 numbers, for instance, might still have such service. But new residents must normally utilize 479 numbers, having moved to the area after the change was made. tiful. City and the new south Ogden office is capable of providing the fastest, most efficient service. MR. BRIAN has been a resident of Davis County for over 20 years.

Brian has elected to run for a seat on the Davis County Board of Education. He would represent the voters in District 3 which include South Weber, East Layton, part of Layton. Kaysville, Fruit Heights, Farmington, Centerville and West Boun HIS DECISION to run was prompted by a growing concern over the quality of education being provided to the children within the community. He feels the teachers as a rule are competent, but the curriculum needs to be tailored to emphasize the basic skills, especially at the elementary levels. He feels that a lack of communication with the residents of Davis County have contributed to the many problems the board baces today and that a significant improvement needs to be made in that area. . .MONDAYS AND THURSDAYS ARE. . .
