Show 8 Lakeside Review, Tuesday, June 19, 1990 Lakeside Hams head for hills in field day Warning: Dont sell tobacco to teens Davis County amateur radio operators will head for the hills to participate in the annual field day emergency preparedness ex4 ercise June near the Monte Cristo campground. Field day coordinator John DAusilio, Layton, said the club will set up and operate the amateur radio station powered by large solar cells as practice for possible emergency use. The station will not operate on commercial or mechanically generated power during the weekend exercise. The solar cells will run the station by day and charge storage batteries for night operation. The amateurs will be using voice and morse code to communicate. DAusilio said the exercise will start at noon Saturday and requires the club to set up an operating amateur radio station and contact other ham radio opera County reminds of legal risks involved FARMINGTON With surveys showing an increasing number of teenagers who are smoking, Davis County is trying to improve awareness of laws that prohibit businesses to sell tobacco to underage smokers. Kevin Condra, health promotion technician with Davis County Health Department, said the county is trying to educate all business owners of the legal risks involved with selling tobacco products to teenage smokers under the legal age of 19. By sending an educational packet and a copy of tobacco laws to business owners, Condra hopes the sale of cigarettes and chewing tobacco to teenagers will steadily decrease. He said signs for business windows stating that identification is required to purchase tobacco products are currently being placed in convenience store windows. Current Utah laws state that a manager of employee of a business that knowingly sells tobacco products to underage teenagers can be prosecuted with a class C misdemeanor on first offense.

Legion gives funds to radio club A $300 check for purchase of emergency operations equipment was presented this week to the Davis County Amateur Radio Club by the American Legion Utah Department. Rich Fisher, Layton, member of the American Legion Civil Defense Committee, presented the check to club president Brent Twitchell. The money will be used to purchase additional batteries to be used as backup power for the club ham radio repeater located on Antelope Island. The repeater boosts the power and coverage of the signals from the ham hand-hel- d transmitters and allows effective communications in all types of situations. The repeater was constructed by club members for civil defense, emergency and community use, and is located on the island with other county law enforcement and civil defense communications equipment. 23-2- Layton High Class of 1970 reunion plans LAYTON Layton High Class of 1970 will hold its reunion July 27 and 28.
