The amnesty will not apply to parking tickets in the large metropolitan areas; however, it may apply to parking tickets in other areas, so it is suggested persons check with the court iftheyhavea question. The amnesty will not apply to warrants issued by the juvenile court If the offense does not require appearance before a judge (as in many traffic offenses) and the warrant was issued by a Circuit Court, the person may pay the penalty to the clerk of any Circuit Court location in the state. For warrants issued by a justice court o (JP) the person will need to go to the location where the warrant was issued. If the offense does require appearance before a judge (more, serious offenses such as DUI or reckless driving), the person must go to the court location where the warrant was issued and make arrangements with the court clerk for an appearance before the judge. The arrest warrant will be withdrawn upon payment of the bail and the matter set for hearing. If a person is not sure whether a warrant is outstanding, or whether the offense requires an appearance before a judge, they should call the court and inquire.

November named as Diabetes Month, to seek prevention Diabetes researchers have made tremendous advances in treating people with diabetes and are working on ways to prevent and eventually cure, diabetes. One of the main purposes of the American Diabetes Association is to support research to fin ways to prevent and eventually cute the disease. In the last year, researchers have made progress investigating both (type I) diabetes, an adult-ons(type II) diabetes. University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine researchers are working on a simple test that will help identity people at risk of developing diabetes. The test will enable physicians to check the relatives of those who have diabetes and, if high risk is detected, monitor more closely to prevent crisis should diabetes said Dr. ' Massimo develop, Trucco. Dr. TVucco and his colleagues have studied the structure of the HLA-Dgene. People lacking aspartic acid, an amino add, at a critical point in theHLAr DQ molecule are approximately 100 times more likely to contract type I diabetes than those with By drawing a small blood sample and doing DNA analysis, most pathology laboratories will soon be able to identity high risk individuals in less than 24 hours. Adult-onsdiabetes is often treated with diet and drugs that lower blood sugars. Metformin, a new drug currently being studied at Stanford University, appears to lower blood glucose, blood cholesterol, and triglycerides. Metformin appears to improve patients entire blood-lipi- d profile, redudng their risk of heart disease. If the drug performs well in clinical trials, it should be available for general use in several years. Kidney disease is a major threat to the life expectancy and g of individuals with diabetes, especially those with type I diabetes. Preliminary studies show that it may now be possible to delay the onset or prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy (kidney disease) with early identification and the use of medications currently available for the treatment of high blood pressure. These drugs are known as ACE inhibitors. Studies conducted in Europe and Great Brit-ain show promise, resulting in insulin-depende- nt et insulin-depende- Outdoors in tiveness of these drugs in beating the earliest forms of nephropathy and moderate degrees of kidney impairment These clinical trials are now taking place in Utah and at several other study sites in the Q it et well-bein- .

V 353-454- 4.- ' Harry and Fontella Tomlinsons granddaughter, Shellie Kynaston, daughter of Gilbert and Kynaston, Vernal, was married to Michael Lee Jackson, son of Carl D. and Carol Jackson, also of Vernal, Friday, Nov. 3. Family and friends witnessed the Vernal wedding, and a reception followed. The bride and groom are now making their home in Salt Lake. Jerry and Marie Tomlinson and boys, Kearns, and Bradley Tomlinson, South Jordan, were here for the weddingof their niece, Shellie Kynaston. Marie and Wendy Tomlinson, aunts of the bride, along with other aunts, helped in the kitchen.

'By US. nt . , the boundary to the northern line. The quarry, as impressive as it is, is just a drop in the bucket compared to the spectacular natural beauty ofthe canyon country that takes in 45 miles of the Green River, from the Gates ofLodore to Split Mountain Gorge, and 40 miles of the Yampa River, from Deerlodge Park to Pats Hole. This is 197,265 acres ofthe most rugged, desolate, beautiful country in the Western United States, and its right in our backyard. All National Monuments are part of the National Park System. Which means this is public land. Everyone is welcome. It also means that hunting is prohibited, and has been for many decades. There are herds of elk, deer an bighorn sheep that have lived their lives on tire Monument, and have never been hunted. These animals arent exactly tame, but they are easier to approach and will allow humans to observe than for a longer period iff time than wild animals found elsewhere. They are somewhat used to tourists, they see thousands every summer, but summer is over and the tourists are gone. Now is the time to really eryoy the spectacular scenery and Abundant wildlife the monument has to offer. A paved road runs the 3 1 miles from the monument headquarters, just two miles east of Dinosaur, Colorado on highway 40, to Harpers Comer, the heart of the canyon country. From there you get a stunning view of the gorges of both rivers, thousands of feet below. This time of year the elk and deer are gathering into herds and moving onto their winter grounds, and it would be impossible to drive this road without seeing animals, but to really eqjoy the monument, ii a trip on one of the rougher . heel drive road, or, take on,.pt ,tne nany hikers trails. These are well marked, and vary from an easy 1 2 mile hike at the PlugHat Nature Trail, to the Vale of Tears Trail, a difficult 30 mile hike that requires at least two days. A free backcoun-tr- y permit is required for any overnight pack trip. These are available at the monument headquarters. This time of year a stop at the headquarters is necessary anyway, to check on road conditions. None of the roads are maintained in winter, and a snowstorm might have them closed. Also, its a good idea to let someone know where you are going and how long you plan on staying. tainm Ninety percent of the pictures of live trophy animals you see in the outdoor magazines are taken in National Parks or Monuments, like Yellowstone. The cover photo usually brings the photographer one thousand dollars. Most are taken by professional photograamaphers, but occasionally an with a good photo of teur comes up a truly great trophy, and is able to sell it I guarantee there are some trophies on the monument that will make any outdoor magazine editors eyes bug out. Besides, it doesnt hurt to dream, so if you go, be sure to take a camera. Wildlife photography is demanding and difficult, but getting a good picture is gratifying, even if not profitable. If you go, be prepared. Last fall I toured the monument from daylight to dark, and didnt see another person. An auto breakdown could be disastrous if someone doesnt know where to come looking for you. Take survival gear. This doesnt mean just a coat and a candy bar. Have a lot of warm clothing and sleeping bags, food for several days, even ifyoure on a y trip. Fire malting mateand a first aid kit are a water rial, must. The wilderness can be a wonderful experience. It can also be deadly for the unprepared, especially this time of year. one-da- Wanda Baatian drove to Provo and did two sessions in the temple.
