Show L ? I REFLEX BULLETIN JOURNAL LEADER SEPTEMBER 2, 1982 Lower Insurance Premiums? By TOM BL'SSELBERG FARMINGTON Declining health insurance premiums is usually something you only dream about, right? 4 IF A NEW health appraisal and prevention program under formulation in the Davis School District spurts ahead, as planned, such happy prospects could be in store for hundreds of teachers and other employees affiliated with Education Mutual Insurance, and could even result in more money for salaries. The proposal, explained recently to the board of education by Sept. Lawrence Welling and Physical Education Director L. James Hill, would include developing a "healthy lifestyle that not only would make us feel better but I feel teachers would be more productive and there would be less absence from work due to illness, Dr. Hill said. osal, recommending the district should get involved in health pracpreventive tices. DEVELOPED by Dr. Lonnie N alder of USU and utilized ness so people may know by the two Cache County school districts, he indicated it has proved to be a very valuable program with a film presenting it to teachers during meetings last week. "The cost of insurance is a costly item, Supt. Welling said, noting, if this can be a preventive program, it can help those insured be healthier, it could impact the premiums paid. A committee of employees from the county health department, accounting, teacher representatives and district administration have been studying the prop- - No News Yet On Kidnapping Of Sunset Girl THAT HELPS with aware- theres a problem pending and may do something to prevent it from coming about, he said, noting the committee's studying the possibility of conducting health classes "several hours a week in the schools such as community school classes that could include not only school employees, but the general public. Im sure if the right people were trained and were available for consultation, a great deal of good could come from it, the superintendent continued. IM QUITE excited 1 feel this has quite a bit of merit, Dr. Hill emphasized. 1 think its very valuable when were healthy, were more productive. He noted there are still a lot of questions to be answered but he indicated it could include a treadmill test and computerized programs for each participant to let them know where they are physically and could allow programming as far as an individual would want, such as either havy conditioning to a more moderate program. ME HOPE to set incentives and set it up for people who consistently stay with it," Dr. Hill added, noting it would include nutrition, exercise and counseling for hypertension (high blood stress-typ- e pressure), for example. Board members were enthusiastic in support. Bruce Parry said I think youre absolutely on the right track. Im sorry it wasnt there ten years ago. a The state is finding it (program) very successful." AT $28 for building rental, say, that would pay for four days of gym use for everybody and indicated hed like it to emerge at even a faster pace for employees. Education Mutual has said it will assist with paying some training costs and Asst. Supt. Gayle Stevenson explained that where insurance companies pass on claims in premiums "if the claims are less, theres less cost so it (costs) will go down. ONE BIG concern when we take that large check of money negotiated each year, we use it for that (insurance) instead of salaries. With any significant reduction in claims w'ould mean more money could be placed for other purposes.

BLODGETT SUNSET Its been a week now, and as of deadline today nothing has been heard, or seen of little Rachael Marie Runyan who was kidnapped from a school playground last Thursday. INVESTIGATORS who have spent 24 hours a day everyday on the case believe that the little blonde may have been taken out of state. Detective Phil Olmstead of the Sunset Police Dept, said a nationwide bulletin of the girls disappearance has been broadcast hoping that someone , somewhere may come up with a tip that will lead to the girls safe return. WE FELT earlier that she may still be in the state, he said. But with each passing day it appears that this may be changing. Meanwhile, two tips one to a Baptist Church and the other to a motel room, both on Salt Lake Citys west side failed to turn up a lead. WEVE BEEN checking out all leads and trying to verify all information provided us, explained Det. Olmstead, who added that he feared the missing girl could possibly be a victim of a black market ring. We have to consider this when a young child as pretty and healthy as her is involved in a kidnapping, noting that there has not yet been a ransom request of the parents. RACHAEL WAS taken by a man described by the victims two brothers as being a black male, about six feet tall, 30-3-5 years of age and with a mustache and a short afro. The boys said he was driving a medium-size- d blue car. They told police that he (suspect) offered the girl candy. They said they refused and told their sister not to accept the candy but when she did the man grabbed her and pulled her into his car. PRESENTING AN EXCLUSIVE OFFER P0R0UR SHOPPERS!
