Show THE PAYSON CHRONICLE iannDEQQSBnnnnnnannnnnz Thursday, February 26, 1970 ' vi ' & The View From Here By Ruth Roth laaaaannnmnKinrinrmnnnrn The Board of Education, Nebo School never really approved of visitors going to see a very sick person and during my recent illness I became more convinced than ever that it isnt always good for the I have My fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect the Constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality and S J ! justice. . I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, animosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no. compromise for crime and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting gratuities. I recoguite the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of the police service. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, dedicating myself before God to my chosen profession...law enforcement. This is the creed of LaMar Horrocks and it is taken from the Law Enforcement Code of Ethics. LaMar Horrocks is numbered among our highway patrolmen who spend their days and nights aiding others. Their lives are devoted to the safety and protection of mankind. Today we pay them homage. Mr. Horrocks was born in Vernal, Utah to Lewis and Mary Winn Horrocks. He wareared and received his early educa-tioilPark City, Utah. He is a high school graduate and attended police training schools. He is married to the former Dorthea Cox and they are the parents of the following children: LaMar James who is in the United States Air Force stationed at NHA Trang Vietnam. He is married to Diane Shepherd; Jeffery Wayne is in the U.S. Coast Guard, stationed at Ketchikan, Alaska; Randall Clifford is a senior of the meeting held January 13, 1970, were approved the desk of the Superintendent From Besides the usual counseling service provided in the middle, junior, and senior high schools, Nebo School District also has other special services to help students succeed in school. Some students have need of special help to overcome some kind of learning disability or handicap. The following list will give the reader an idea of the number of students and teachers involved in these special services: 150 educable students served by 12 teachers 10 trainable students by 1 teacher 78 learning adjustment students by 8 teachers 370 students with speech and hearing difficulties by 6 and 12 teachers 8 students by 1 teacher 323 homebound students taught at home thus far this year by 3 teachers 251 students with learning disabilities by 12 teachers In serving students the schools role is of course mostly in the area of education counseling and guidance. However, some psychological therapy is provided. A question has arisen relative to having parental consent before such therapy takes place. The point is well taken and it is the intent of the district to implement a program whereby parental consent is received before such therapy is given. The district has a trained psychologist for this special service. Regular school counselors do not attempt this type of treatment. They are involved with all students in the school on problems of educational concern. They help students with selection of courses, vocational plans, scholarship applications, improvement of study habits, personal proproblems, etc. This normal cess of counseling doec not involve psychological treatment and, hence, parental consent will not be required in this program. The counselor is primarily a teacher in a special role to assist students with their regular education program. served as a highway trooper for 18 years. There are certain events in the life of every man which fasten and stamp his character; they may seem small and unimportant in themselves, but they are great and important to each of us. This is his creed. GROUND THEfl QTOWfrcEJ Davit tvant Dear Reader: This Younger Generation! cant teenagers way their parents behave themselves the teach them to do? A few months ago a bit of news swept the nation, telling about a group of teenage boys who wrecked a mansion on Long Island, N.Y., to the tune of $6,000. This feller, Old Money Bags, threw a party Why for his Coming-out-Part- y, which lasted a couple of days. He rented a mansion near his home for the male guests to stay in overnight. They, were all members of wealthy, well-brfamilies and the nation was shocked to think that such kids would behave as they did. I now quote from the news articles: At the trial of five of these youngsters, the stepfather of the girl who came out testified this week as to his preparations for the party. He said he had bought 10 case of champagne, six cases of scotch, four cases of gin, two cases of vodka and a case of rum. He said he sent a half barrel of beer for the boys over to the rented house where the male guests were staying and which was subsequently wrecked. end of quote. ed v i AT PARKINSONS 1 Week Only Where Service after the Sale is Part of the Bargain NEW!at am MAYTAG Porta-Drye;Move r it where you want use it . . . store it anywhere.

The clerks tentative notes me. She started out with the flu and had a set back and was now in the hospital with pneumonia. Elen Bixby another friend started out with congestion and ended up having one lung removed. BUT, they reminded me, she smokes! I was anxious to hear about another friend. Polly has always been robust and healthy so I thought I should get a good report from her but not so, they reported that she had been in an automobile accident just the day before and had two broken arms and cuts on her face which would require plastic surgery. After the friends left with the caution that I take care of myself I decided to do just that and went to bed. I was brought out of a nightmare sleep with the idea that a woodpecker was pecking at my head only to find that someone was knocking at the door. I answered the summons to find an insurance agent. When he saw my plight with sickness he wondered if I might be interested in more insurance so that Id be prepared in the future. I didnt know him and didnt invite him in so he stood at the door and cautioned me to be careful that I didnt get worse. It reminded him of some of his clients. One had developed rheumatic faver and injured her heart. Another had ended up with a lot of boils. When he began explaining about another client who had choked to death with the flu I excused myself and went back tobed. Then as I thought about my visitors I had a good laugh about the whole thing and felt real lucky. Police profile ? Monday, February 9, 1970, at 5:30 p.m. President William H. Sorensen was presiding. Roll call showed all members present. Superintendent Joe A. Reidhead, and LeRoy Whitehead, patient. Because of circumstances such as work, school and business appointments all of the family had to be away from home that day and I had promised to just relax and try to recover my health. I was doing just fine until midmorning when some friends from my old home town came calling. They just happened to be in the area and stopped to caaew our friendship. My flu symptoms reminded them of cases concerning some mutual acquaintances which they eagerly related. I dont for a minute think people are being malicious or anything in their way. I think they tell us these experiences to help us see that we arent so bad off as we might think.
