Camille Bcenfield was born on Saturday, April 25. 1987, at the McKay Dee Hospital in Ogden, at 11:25 a.m. She weighed seven pounds one ounce and was 2114 inches long. She has a brother David, age two and one half, to welcome her home. Her grandparents are John and Nellie Bcenfield of Watertown, New York, and Val and Marlene Dearden of Henefer. She also has Laura a Reed of Watertown. New York. Last week, the birth of one of the babies was reported incorrectly. Here is the correction: Allison and Thayne Porter, of Ogden, have a new little daughter. Caley Porter was born on April 13. 1987. She weighed five pounds three ounces and was 18'4 inches long. Her grandparents are Rulon and Margie Judd of Hoytsville and Mark and Barbara Porter of Ogden. She has a Allen Nichols, of great-grandmothe- r, great-grandfathe- r, mm Rto Drink-relate- d Traffic Deaths Down d Fatalities from crashes reached a new low of 33 percent of total highway deaths last year in Utah. This amounted to 104 people killed. Apparently more drivers are getting the message to stay away from driving after drinking. Back in 1980, 150 individuals lost their lives on Utah highways to alcohol impairment, which was 45 percent of the total death count. Tougher laws went into effect in 1983, along with a great deal of publicity about this tremendous problem. In 1983, 101 people died, accounting for 36 percent alcohoLassociated fatals out of the total. The picture worsened in 1984 with 129 deaths in drinking accidents, or 41 percent of the total. In 1985, 110 or 36 percent of roadway fatalcohol-relate- II alities were identified with alcohol. Even with the lower ratio of 33 percent in 1986, it is no reason to rejoice or think we have the 104 individuals problem licked killed is still a terrible loss. The DUI (driving under the influence) problem continues to be with us. Utah law enforcement officers have continued trying to stop and remove intoxicated motorists from the road. From 1978 to 1984 arrests for DUI doubled from 7,000 to 14,000 a year. In 1985, 13,664 DUI arrests were' made and 13,544 were reported last year. There seems to be a considerable deterrent to drink and drive from law enforcement, but still too many do it. The 104 deaths last year occurred in 90 accidents. Of these, 79 accidents were shown to have a drinking driver at fault. In two other cases both drivers in a collision were reported to have been drinking. In only two .collisions were non-drinki. drivers the primary contributors. Out of 14 fatal pedestrian accidents where alcohol was a factor, nine pedestrians were under the influence of alcohol, not the drivers. Walking under the influence can also be deadly. In three situations both the pedestrian and the driver had been drinking. Last year on 42 occasions someone drank, got behind the wheel of the car, and ended up killing himself by striking a fixed object or rolling the vehicle. Anyway you look at it, drinking., shows up as a factor in traffic deaths too frequently. Even one or two drinks can impair judgment, concentration, and ability to function in a sudden or complex situation. Very small amounts of alcohol can magnify driving dangers when mixed with or other drugs legal or not taken when ill, fatigued, or emotionally upset. A couple of beers may accentuate bad driving habits, increase dangers at night, unfamiliar roadways or an unfamiliar vehicle. Anyone who thinks he needs a belt for the road should make it a safety beltl South Summit High School ladies chorus Regional winners.
