The attendance rose as high as ISO. More than 37 people were crowded into some homes. One home had over 50. The hot issues were education, senator, sheriff and the commissioner's commis-sioner's races. Twenty-two county officials are seeking re-election, most are being challenged by two or three other Republicans. Ruby Price, the county chairman, said this is a good sign that people are paying attention to county and state government. The jail is another big issue which spreads out to include the commissioners. Senator Jake Garn, Congressman Congress-man Jim Hansen, Larry Lunt, the State Party Chairman, and other state officials will be in attendance. Lt. Gov. Val Oveson will represent the governor's office. A 15 minute film of President Reagan will highlight high-light the program.
