Wesley Allen Tuttle had been conducted in 1984 of the murder of Sydney Ann Merrick at the top of Parley's Summit. Sydney Merrick, age 21, had been stabbed numerous times in the chest and throat. A Summit County Jury convicted the defendant of murder. After his conviction, Mr. Tuttle was committed to the Utah State Prison. After a few weeks, Mr. Tuttle escaped along with two other prisoners from the Utah State for Prison. Mr. Tuttle was he before months six approximately was recaptured in Nevada ge Tuttle's conviction had been affirmed by the Utah Supreme Court. Thereafter Tuttle filed a Petition for Habeas Corpus with the federal court in Salt Lake City. The Petition for Habeas Corpus is to test the legality of a defendant's incarceration.

The defendant will continue to serve his five years to life sentence at the Utah State Prison for the murder. School Board Disturbed By Student Behavior At South Summit Graduation by Dave Goates There was no cloudburst laced with lightning to disrupt South Summit High School's graduation festivities like there was at Alta High. No federal court injunctions blocked the singing of songs with Christian references to deity that clouded West High's graduation night. South Summit's graduation was tranquil by comparison to graduation at those big city schools. Still, the South Summit School Board was troubled and disturbed about student behavior 10th Annual Balloon Festival June 16, 17, 18 The Coalville Annual Balloon Festival June 16, 17, and 18 provides beauty and excitement for I club for members only).

Special thanks to all the balloon pilots and their sponsors and Gloria Crandall for making this possible! Also thanks to (Wes) Napa Auto Parts for his donation for prizes. during the ceremonies. Jared Weller, Board President, opened the June 7 meeting by lamenting, "Some students lit up their cigarette lighters and detracted from the musical numbers, one student actually roasted a hot dog with his lighter in front of Superintendent Littleford, and some handed the superintendent a hot dog as they received their diplomas. Then they threw their hats into the air at the end. Maybe we should have a prominent alumnus of the school as a featured speaker who could dignify the proceedings. Or maybe we should hold graduation in the auditorium next year instead of the gymnasium. What are your thoughts?" he asked his fellow board members. "I thought the students crossed over the line of respect," said board member Tim Gines. "I attended the North Summit graduation, and it was much more dignified and respectful than ours. They had a speaker (my cousin), and even though it was long it was good. A speaker might increase the dignity of the occasion." Eric Moser, South Summit High's principal, conceded, "I was disappointed, and there are some things I would do differently next year. Having graduation in the auditorium would help. Graduation should be a time of quiet reflection on past achievements, and we should confine the celebration and fun to the party that follows graduation exercises. I thought the speakers and the music were excellent. Maybe we should consider withholding diplomas for displays of unruly citizenship, since the graduation requirements have a all-nig- ht citizenship component." Dave Aplanalp confirmed an estimated $4,000 in donated prizes and gifts, including fly rods, TVs, stereos, microwaves, vacuum cleaners, and a marvelous steak dinner catered by Dan Littledike of the Summit Inn and donated by the board, contributed to a great all-nig- ht party. Kathy Gordon added, "You know, the audience in the gym wasn't very either. around and Everyone kept walking talking throughout the ceremonies. Die auditorium is smaller, but we should issue tickets to limit well-behav- ed attendance." Dr. Littleford offered a moderate view. "It should be a fun night," he said. "We don't want to make it a funeral atmosphere, but maybe we could define the limits of acceptable behavior a little better for next year. I don't think there was any malice intended by any of the students. Continued on Page 9A I NM |
