Show dJJintah IBasin Editorial Standard do you go deer hunting? Why Anybody that has been deer hunting has felt frustration in one form or another. As the deer hunting season draws to a close this week we picked up a copy of "The Deer Hunt" that brought back many memories. For many of us, hunting deer is the one time in the year when we can get away and really forget about work and worries at home. As I see it vhere is nothing that compares to that feeling of getting out into the mountains and enjoying the quiet surroundings. Now on the other hand I think many get out on the hunt and have somewhat of the same expierence as is told below. 1 :00 a.m. alarm clock rings. 2:00 a.m. hunting partners arrive, drag you out of bed. 2:30 p.m. throw everything except the kitchen sink into pickup. 3:00 a.m. leave for the deep woods. 3:15 a.m. drive back home to pick up gun. 3:30 a.m. drive like hell to get to the woods before daylight. 4:00 a.m. set up camp.

Police officers deserve our appreciation ficers is that "someone has to do it." This is very true, but aren't we fortunate that certain individuals decide to perform the duties? Because we work with these officers on a daily basis, we see them in situations that others often miss. We experience their joy at finding a lost child or recovering the stolen property of an elderly couple. We also exto perience their hurt when they are required Law enforcement officials from the Uintah Basin met last Thursday in Roosevelt to honor those individuals within their ranks who have excelled in the line of duty. In a way, however, it is a shame these individuals have to honor themselves. Each day officers within the Basin perform their duty. Often times this duty requires that officers risk personal injury, and sometimes death. We at the STANDARD deal on a daily basis with the officers in the Uintah Basin. Many residents see them as cold, distant individuals. They are notl These men and women have families and friends just as any other people.

HOME FRED JONES, UTAHN BARBARA . .247-237- Dear Editor, Recently I attended the new Basin Livestock Market which is located in Ballard. I was very excited to think that finally we had a place dose to take our cattle. Earlier I had an offer to have my stock hauled to Spanish Fork at no coat to me. I thought I should support the market here and our home town people. When I got to the market, (which waa 10:00 a.nf.) everything really looked in order. At 3:00 p.m. they hadnt even got to the cattle. My family was with me and we had other appointments. So I put my cattle into the hands of the .market people, thinking they would look out for my stock as if I was there. The cattle finally sold at 5:00 that evening. Three weeks later I finally got the check for my stock and I was really shocked. 722-276- Seca-kuk- i .
