After all, the show must go on. For an hour and a half calendars on cell walls were forgotten. Steel bars melted away. For 90 exhilarating minutes, there was instead the excitement of show business and show business, as anyone knows, is the business no other is like. The afternoon was set aside for a dress rehearsal of the 1978 version of Felon Follies, that and the remainder into the inmate recreation fund for movies, sports equipment and club activities.

MONtEZUMA CREEK, San Juan County (AP) Texaco decided late Friday to temporarily shut down operations at the companys Aneth Unit following talks with a group of about 100 Navajo Indians who have occupied the units pumping station since '' Thursdays'-'.- , John,: Masson, Texacos public relations coordinator .from Denver, said the decision to shut down operation at the southeastern 1 Ttah unit was taken to avoid possible mechanical fanure of unsupervised equipment. He said J. C. White, Texacos assistant division manager,, met with the Indians for Vh hours Friday in a cooperative atmosphere hindered somewhat by a language barrier. They dont want any violence and we are cooperating, Masson said. He sid the group presented Texaco w'ith a list of grievan6s which company officials were studying. Masson'said there was no indication from the groups spokesmen when they might leave. The group took over offices at the pumping station Thursday morning, demanding that oil companies clean up their act. The pumping station is on Navajo Indian Reservation land about four miles northwest of Montezuma Creek. Masson said Texaco officials wanted to meet with the group again and include tribal officials in future negotiations, although no time was set for the talks. The Indians set up a roadblock at the pumping station Friday, tribal police said.

A N'ohel Laureate Friday night said research into an association between hepatitis B virus and liver cancer is hopeful because "it leads to the idea that prevention of the disease is possible." winner of Dr. Baruch S. Rlumlx-rg- , the 1976 Nohel Prize for medicine, out lim'd his work on the origin and dissemination of infectious disease a! the Frontiers of Science lecture at the University of Utah. Dr. Blumlx'rg, an associate director of clinical research and senior member of the Institute of Cancer Research. Philadephia, has received numerous honors for his work that opened a new research area on viral hepatitis and brought important findings on infectious disease. Hepatitis, an inflammation of the liver, is usually caused by virus infection, he explained. Symptoms of acute hepatitis include jaundice, fever and malaise, and the acute disease may last weeks to months. It also has a chronic form, and hidden carriers who are asymptomatic. Describes Techniques He described the research techniques used to detect the Australian antigen, a specific protein in the blood, and its association with the hepatitis virus. The techniques application is significant liecause it led to the identification of hepatitis carriers who didn't have symptoms of the disease, he said That, in turn, led to identification of bkxxl from hepatitis donors so the blood wouldnt be used and the disease transmitted through transfusions. Another consequence of the research is the possibility of a vaccine against hepatitis B. A vaccine, which has already been used in animal studies, is now starting field trials with humans, he said. The results so far have been very promising, Dr. Blumberg said, adding the field trials will take several years. Valuable Research The research has also been valuable in its implications for liver cancer, he continued. Although primary liver cancer (cancer which begins in the liver! is rare in the U.S., it is the most common form of cancer in men in areas of Africa and Asia, Dr. Blumberg said. The research suggests a strong association between primary liver cancer and hepatitis B virus, so it may be that hepatitis B is necessary to develop liver cancer, he said. Persons who are infected early with perhaps before birth hepatitis B can become chronic carriers, although most wont, he explained. Some of the chronic carriers develop scarring of the liver and later primary cancer. Dr. Blumberg said. Its obvious other factors are involved in the development of primary liver cancer, but if hepatitis B is required for development, then the cancer could he prevented if the hepatitis is prevented, he said. You dont have to know everything about a disease to prevent it, Dr. Blumberg said. A hepatitis B vaccine could be important for liver cancer, he added. Explored Transmission The research has explored various means that the hepatitis B is transmitted, including personal contact, especially between mother and child, and insects, the scientist said. The researchers found, for example, of the bed bugs that more than one-haof the chronic carriers were infected, he said. In their investigation, the scientists raised the possibility that the hepatitis B virus might not be unique in its relation to infectious disease and cancer, he said.

Kimball, on the 148th general annual eve of the two-da- y conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints, said Friday the church in 1979 will begin conducting area conferences in this country and will reduce stake conferences from four to two annually. The church leader said, Our task is to be simple enough to serve our people at the level of their need. That is the simplicity toward which we strive. Area conferences have been conducted the past few years in countries outside the United States. It was noted that there now are nearly 900 stakes in the LDS Church. In reducing yearly stake conferences from four to two, President Kimball said a general authority will be assigned to attend one of the two and a regional representative the other. Another simplification measure announced concerned genealogical procedures. President Kimball said church members will soon be able to extract names for proxy temple ordinances through microfilm reading devices in their local stakes. He said such an operation will do much to accelerate the full use of our temples and to hasten the work for the dead generally. Reaffirmed by the LDS leader was a church policy statement from the First Presidency which said in part: The growing worldwide responsibilities of the church make it inadvisable for the church to seek to respond to all the various and complex issues involved in the mounting problems of the many cities and communities in which members live. But this complexity does not absolve members as individuals from filling their responsibilities as citizens in their own communities. search h T.
