Private laboratories, he said, "are perfectly capable of performing the blood tests.

This does not mean physicians will have to draw blood twice from expectant mothers, Call said. The doctors can take one blood test, split it, and send part to the state lab for the syphilis test and part to the private lab for Rh information. Private laboratory tests will mean an additional cost to patients, and a spot check indicated it would range from $3 to $7.50 depending on the complexity of the lab work. A State Health Division information sheet said the divisions laboratory has been examining about 26,000 blood specimens each year. The division offers training for private laboratory personnel who will be making the blood tests.

Her husband, Christopher, 28, was treated at South Davis Community Hospital for bums on his left hand and released.

Letzelter said he ran from the burning apartment with the container of fluid and returned to the apartment a few seconds later. He said his wife was in a bedroom wrapped up in a bedspread, her clothes ablaze. I rolled my wife up in the bedding and snuffed out die flames but she had already been severely burned, Letzelter said. Asst Chief Mcllrath said there was a delay in the fire department getting the call because the call was made to the Bountiful City Fire De- partment.
