The schedule was revamped when West Valley assumed responsibility from the county for providing the service. A private firm has been hired by the city to collect garbage. But while the firms crews made pick-up- s according to the new schedule on Friday and Saturday, City Hall was besieged with calls from residents who were still following the old county schedule, only to find that their garbage was not being collected.

A few callers complained that the private collection firm, Ideal Waste Systems, missed garbage in their area. Others contended the companys men handled their garbage cans too roughly, Lynch said.

The City Police Department received a boost here Tuesday when the City Commission approved the hiring of four more officers. Two officers will be assigned to the detective division under Sgt. John Shreeve and two will be added to patrol, said Chief David Campbell. The commission also approved the addition of one clerical worker to help deal with the volume of paperwork generated by detectives, plus the hiring of a civilian to run the evidence room and handle technical duties such as fingerprinting. That will allow Sgt. Fred Nudd, who had operated the evidence room, to devote more time to crime prevention programs and work with local organizations, Campbell said.

For Auditor from the - WVC To Interview Candidates WEST VALLEY. Interviews are expected to begin within the next few days as part of West Valley's search for an auditor. Five of more than a dozen applicants for the position formerly held by M. Gerry Ashman will be interviewed by city officials shortly, said Personnel Director Jack McIntosh. Ashman's resignation became effective Dec. 31. Complicating the search for an auditor is the uncertain status of that post in the future, McIntosh noted Now an elected official, the auditor would be eliminated if the foi in of ci ty government was changed to a . Mayor Henry (Hank) Price has said he would call for an election on that option sometime this spring.

Eight Periods Each Day Change In Class Structure Is Proposed GRANITE PARK. Three new members of the Granite Board of Education gained a baptism by fire of sorts here Tuesday night. After being sworn in by County Clerk Sterling Evans, the trio, along with a pair of holdover board members, was occupied until midnight by a host of decisions and reports involving their new jobs. The board elected Miriam Farnsworth of Hunter as its president and Richard Andrus of Kearns vice president. Those two will remain on the board for at least two more years, while beginning their four-yea- r terms Tuesday were Bruce Anderson, Joyce Higashi and Patty Sand-stroA key decision the board was called on to make concerned extending the eight-perioday in effect at Cottonwood high to Taylorsville high when it opens in the fall. d Seen with hit parents A.

Taylorsville high principal Dr. Earl Catmull said that when he received the appointment he was adamantly against the program, as was Grant Rowley when he became Cottonwood principal. However, the two are now the programs strongest advocates. Catmull said the program has met with overwhelming success in terms of students and teachers, as well as with parents.

Ninety percent of the students at Cottonwood when asked their preference, opted for the eight-perioday and the board had a host of phone calls and a petition from patrons in favor of retaining the pro gram. The board agreed that students already attending Cottonwood and Kearns high schools may exercise their option as to which school they will attend next year and that bus transportation will be available to those meeting the requirement until current sophomores have graduated. The board also set boundaries for the new school and received a report on where cuts can be made to meet the State Legislature-mandatetrimming of its budget by 3.5 percent Both of those matters are covered in depth in stories inside this section.
