Show . Lakeside Lakeside Review - again Northridge HOSA team national champs By LORETTA PARK Standard-Examine- r correspondent LAYTON - Most of them may have received their caps and gowns, but that didnt stop 12 Northridge High School students from competing in Chicago. The students ' of the schools Kennedy Health Occupation Students of America chap- ter brought home the national title for the second time in three years. Last year they received fourth place and in 1994 they won top honors. The students went to Chicago, June 26 through June 29, to com-- . pete against 3,000 other high school students for the title. The schools HOSA chapter is sponsored by the Davis Applied Technology Center and their advisor is Bonnie Novak. These students were very well ' studied and prepared to compete, Novak said. The students on the first place bowl team are Andrea Griffiths, Aaron Kennedy, Jed Poll and Josh Wheatley. Hailey Gentile received a first place in veterinarian assisting. The other seven students were among the top 10 finalists in their competitions. Knstie Swenson and .Wade Bennington placed in medical terminology. Kailie Van Aarle placed in extemporary health poster and Jenny Nelson, . competition, Poll placed in physical therapy aid. Northridges other bowl team was Kristen Checketts, Jenny Radmall, Wade Bennington and Ed Guitirrez. Ironically, both Northridges teams had to compete against each other in order to get into the final rounds, Novak said. They were blowing everyone else out of the water until they hit our other team, Novak said. Kennedy, a member of the first place team, said he did not feel his team members were connecting at first. Their competitors werent at the same level as the Northridge team and Kennedy said it was hard to remain focused on the job. But when they went to their third match and were facing classmates, they knew they had to beat them to make it to the final round. Ironically, that's when we connected, Kennedy said. Kennedy, who works as a roofer during the summer, plans to study to become an opthomologist Wheatley, who found out through the HOSA program that medicine isnt what he wants to do careerwise, was nervous when he faced his classmates. They almost beat us at state, so we had to jump out and beat them early, he said. Poll did not want to play against them because they were his friends. But when the time came, it was all business, Poll said. Poll also said he didnt feel the connection with his teammates like he did at the state competition. He was worried they would not make it to the finals. Students competing in the bowl competition have to take a test first to qualify. Poll said the first round caused him to think that maybe the Northridge students wouldnt make it. They had to compete against a team that placed 29th on the test. The Northndge team placed fourth. We barely beat them, Poll maybe I wouldnt even get a medal, Gentile said. Gentile works as a veterinarian assistant for Dr. Judy Terry at the Brigham City Veterinary Hospital. She plans to attend Utah State University this fall. Novak said all the students she works with impresses her. r now has By RUTH MALAN . . . r correspondent KAYSVILLE - It looks like Dr. Jack Rampton and his wife Alice will be able to use their property at 40 West 100 South their way. Tuesday the city council approved rezoning the property from residential to commercial, but not until after a lot of discussion and one councilman saying the city was putting the cart before the horse. The land in question was in a commercial zone for years. Ramp-- . ton has an office building next to lot. Part of the office the half-acr-e g building parking lot is on the neigh-borin- lot. Rampton attended a public hear-in- g in May of 1995 when residents asked to have the land rezoned to residential, but he left without knowing the council was going to act on the request later in the evening. The residents of the area got their way when the council voted to zone the land residential. When Rampton found out he couldnt use 'the land for another office building he came back to the council. Although Mayor Arthur Johnson said the council had made a mistake in rezoning it residential, the council did not change the zone back to commercial because of the public protest. Tuesdays public hearing was relatively mild in comparison to the earlier one. We have long range plans for it, Rampton said. Wed like to build a building similar to the one we have. A small home is on the property which Rampton says is a shack and can not be repaired. It has little value as a single residential site. With parking on the south at the side of the road and on the east side, no one would want it as a home, Rampton said. It could be left as a shack but its not viable as a rental. Rampton asked the council to rezone the lost to the professional building zone which has not been used in Kaysville, until this time. A larger parking lot is proposed which would get parking off the street. And Rampton proposed a buffer zone on the north and west sides of the property. Lauri Storey who lives on 100 West Street spoke for the residents in the area. Our neighborhood is feeling pinched. The traffic is bad and there is more commercial, said Storey. She told the council that her neighborhood group had held a meeting with the Ramptons and had mm ny r .? 't - g HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING uuiuonj T.-- r!M.ingnaQ i mi l M- -i ntu i said.

Novak said there are 60 teams across the nation and only 32 are allowed to compete. The test determines who gets to, she said. All the first place team members credit Novaks teaching for their success at the national competition. Novak does not see it that way. She said the students know what previous students have done and what to keep up the tradition. Gentile has worked two years to receive her national title. Last year she received fourth place in veterinarian assisting. She felt doubtful of her chances after taking the test.

But she did ask that the council consider changing the professional building zone. We dont want retail shops," tow B,e FARMINGTON ttOSighwifa! Storey said. at Shephard fcmti Ramptons professional building that is just east of the property in question, is a dental office and has an accountant's office in it. Councilman Joe Hill said he was concerned that changing the zoning would leave it wide open for anything that comes along. As long as you own it I see no problem. You would keep it in the same atmosphere as it is today," said Hill, but he had concerns that if someone bought the property from them that they would do something different with the property. City Manager John Thacker told the council it can look at the ordinance and replace the wording in it. Councilman Robert Rees asked the Ramptons if they were in a hurry to get the property rezoned. Ive been in a hurry for 20 years, said Jack Rampton. I really would like to get it resolved. A revised ordinance would also govern what could be done with the land as long as the use hasnt been established, said Thacker. w lanflW Saiel0-1- 5 JO& necessones CiotWPO BURT BROTHERS EXCLUSIVE ----- -- --- SAVE DR.
