Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox to co-chair suicide task force
BRADY MCCOMBS
Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A new task force that includes a high-ranking leader of the LDS Church, the Utah Jazz owner and the leader of an LGBT rights group was created recently by Gov. Gary Herbert to address a troubling rise in teen suicides in Utah. The new coalition is the latest attempt by state officials to find out why so many teens are killing themselves and to come up with ways to prevent the suicides. State and federal health care experts have closely examined the rise but haven’t been able to identify a single cause. There were 44 suicides among youth ages 10-17 in 2017 — matching the record previously set in 2015, shows new data unveiled recently by Utah state health officials. The average yearly total over the last five years is more than double the yearly average from the previous decade. Herbert called it an emergency situation and ordered the coalition to immediately work with existing suicide prevention groups to compile a list of proposed solutions for a report due by Feb. 15. He said he’s open to devoting more state funds. “I’m smart enough to know that no one single issue, one single solution will in fact prevent all suicides, but I do believe that a more concentrated, coordinated approach by all of us working together can in fact reduce incidents of teen suicides,” said Herbert, a Republican. The group includes Ronald A. Rasband, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ top governing body called the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. He said the religion is updating its suicide webpage to focus more on preven-

Spencer Cox, Fairview, will co-chair a new task force with State Representative Steve Eliason in an effort to find out why so many teens are killing themselves and to come up with ways to prevent the suicides. tion and said the faith is “as anxious as anybody to get to the bottom of it, stop it and provide resources.” Rasband said the coalition’s findings could lead to a change in how the religion deals with the issue. “We’re not the only owner of good ideas,” said Rasband, who was the CEO of Huntsman Chemical Corp. before being selected to join church leadership full-time in 2015. Jazz owner Gail Miller, who also sponsors an anti-bullying coalition, and Equality Utah executive director Troy Williams are also members of the task force that is rounded out with state lawmakers, health care professionals and suicide prevent experts. Williams said his inclusion on the panel indicates that state officials
recognize the data that shows LGBT youth are four times more likely to experience suicidal thoughts. In Utah, where as many of twothirds of the state’s 3 million residents are members of the LDS Church that opposes same-sex relationships, LGBT youth have struggled to find acceptance. That has led LGBT advocacy groups to assert that the rise in suicides could be linked to these teens’ struggles. A report by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention studying the spike in teen suicides in Utah backed up a finding by state officials that a small fraction of suicide victims were definitely gay or lesbian. But state and federal investigators agree that more needs to be done to assess whether sexual orientation was a factor with the victims. Federal investigators were only able to determine the sexual orientation of fewer than one-third of the victims over a five-year span. Among those 40, researchers concluded six of them were gay, lesbian or bisexual. The state has hired an epidemiologist who is helping the state medical examiner with death investigations and hopes to be able to find out more details about the victims and possible contributing factors, including sexual orientation. The coalition will be co-chaired by Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox and state Rep. Steve Eliason, both Republicans. Eliason implored parents to keep their guns locked up, noting that firearms were used in the majority of youth suicides last year. He also called on parents to “stay close to your teens throughout their teen years” and “love your children no matter what.” Cox said he experienced dark
times and had dark thoughts when he was young after his parents divorced and he was bullied. He urged everyone to help make sure other youth feeling like he did don’t feel alone. He said people need to be particularly aware of LGBT youth. “Everyone needs to know that they are loved for who they are,” Cox said.

EPHRAIM — As the petition campaign to put Medical Cannabis on the ballot in 2018 moves forward, those who have been volunteering to gather signatures have until Tuesday, Jan. 30, to collect signatures and to submit those petitions to the county. Others will be going door-to-door beginning shortly thereafter, however, these persons will be paid by the sponsoring organization. The volunteers are appreciated for their efforts to reach out into the Sanpete communities to gather signatures at their own expense, saving resources for the continued effort to educate and promote the passage of the Utah Patients initiative. Contrary to the beliefs of some, there is wide and enthusiastic interest in this initiative in Sanpete County. If placed on the ballot, it appears likely that the initiative will pass. That would make medical cannabis available to many local residents who suffer from conditions that have been found to be helped with cannabis. As signatures have been being gathered there are many who have shared their personal stories of pain, seizures, Parkinson’s, cancer, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and a need to find alternatives to opioids. Many people have read the articles
from professional journals relating research that validates the experiences of those who have had access to this amazing herb. There has been ample research to validate the reported anecdotal experiences. The initiative may be found in its entirety and in summary at the site utahpatients.org. It is an initiative that will allow cannabis strictly for medical use under a doctor’s care and prohibit smoking. If anyone has not yet signed the petitions and would like to, contact Joanne Taylor at (435) 851-9045, 333 Please see PETITION, Page A6

Celebrity opinions MERRILL OGDEN
Last weekend the Deseret News editorial board published a piece that struck a chord with me. The final two sentences of the editorial were these: “Many Americans put far too much weight on celebrity. They cannot afford to confuse that with political leadership in a world that demands the best and brightest public servants.” I have had some thoughts about some of these concepts for quite a while. It’s not that I hate celebrities. I am, in fact, a fan of many of them in sports and entertainment. I admit that I pay money to see and support some of these people. The thing I have a hard time with is that many people somehow believe that a celebrity’s opinion is more valid than anyone else’s opinion. By reason of being a talented actor or musician, and making an obscene amount of money, these people apparently can be regarded by many as experts on foreign policy or agricultural issues. The Deseret News editorial brings up Donald Trump’s inexperience in government. He broke new ground in the realm of someone having no previous political experience being elected president. Mention is made that rumors are out there that Oprah, Tom Hanks, Kanye West, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and other celebrities have been thinking about runs for the White House. I remember when Ronald Reagan was running for president. We were on a trip in Europe. I recall very well having a conversation with an English woman on a train. I was a bit offended. She thought it was laughable that America was possibly going to be electing a movie star as president. It didn’t seem to matter much to her that he had been the governor of California. It’s not that celebrities don’t have the right to have opinions and the right to get involved in the political system. My discomfort revolves around why do we, the “common folk,” tend to believe that they are more knowledgeable and are better trained in matters of politics than those who have experience, education and training? Some late nights I’ll watch TV and switch channels

around watching parts of the talk shows hosted by Kimmel, Fallon and Cobert. I sometimes find myself wishing that they’d just pull someone out of the audience and interview a “common person” instead of the celebrity with whom they are talking. I’d be just as entertained and interested in their life and opinions on issues as the celebrity sitting in the interview chair. (I have to admit though; it’s probably more interesting to look at the celebrities than the regular audience member.) The worst thing is that those talk show hosts have now decided that they themselves want to use their celebrity status and platform to advance their political views. It’s true; the jokes in the opening monologues can sometimes be funny. But those jokes are mostly centered around political figures and issues now in an advancement of the views and agenda of the host or producers of the show. It’s not very generic anymore as it was in the old days of late night talk shows. When I tune into an “entertainment show,” I want entertainment. When I go to a basketball game, I want basketball. When I go to a music concert, I want music. A few years ago, we went to a Crosby, Stills and Nash concert in Salt Lake City. Those “old boys” could still put out a pretty darn good musical show. What left me disappointed about the night was that they couldn’t seem to stop talking about political stuff in between their songs. It got annoying. Well, this has kind have turned into a “rant.” Sorry. I have to remember that we all have our own perspectives on issues. We are all individuals and enjoy the freedom to speak our minds and spend our money the way we choose in support of anyone or whatever cause motivates us. I just hope that we think twice when we consider who it is when we’re letting someone’s opinion sway our own opinion. There are many people in Sanpete who have common sense that isn’t common with a lot of people who may have reporters and photographers following them around because they’re celebrities.

CVMC welcomes first baby of year Indoor soccer league NEPHI — With the birth of a new year, Central Valley Medical Center (CVMC) is also celebrating the first birth at the hospital. While the baby wasn’t due to arrive until Jan. 15, she just couldn’t wait to get here and meet her family. The first baby born at CVMC in 2018 was delivered by Dr. Jerald B Taylor, MD, on Jan. 10 at 3:52 p.m., weighing in at 8 pounds and was 20.25 inches long. The new baby girl will be named Jimena and is the sixth child of her proud parents Juan and Angelica Mireles. “I don’t think that there is any better way to start a new year than with a new baby to take home! In my opinion, you will never experience anything else like taking a baby home for the first time. It’s an awesome feeling, and we couldn’t be happier for the Mireles family,” commented Nick Stewart, marketing director at Central Valley Medical Center. Being the first to be born gives great bragging rights, but her parents and Baby Girl Jimena get to go home with some extra goodies as part of the celebration too. CVMC Administration provides a generous $400 discount on the hospital bill for their New Year’s baby. Along with this discount, the hospital labor and delivery staff put together a generous
basket with a Mom care package and items such as diapers, wipes, a baby bouncer, baby books, bulb syringe, swaddling blankets, toys, picture frames, blankets and outfits, all wrapped up in a new laundry basket. “We love being able to be part of this special time in people’s lives. Angelica mentioned to me that her family had discussed how awesome it would be to have the New Year’s Baby for their last child so I was delighted to see that it had worked out that way! It is important to us that our families here at CVMC have the best experience possible. We make sure that all of our patients receive the highest quality of care, in the best manner possible, so they feel safe and comfortable during their stay,” said Annie Hatch, RN, Women and Newborn service manager at Central Valley Medical Center.

Hawks defeat Wildcats, succumb to Templars BRAD BENTLEY
Pyramid Sports
MT. PLEASANT — The boys’ basketball team at North Sanpete had two big games at home this past week to end the first run through the Region 15 season. The Hawks split the pair, defeating the Richfield Wildcats 57-47 on Wednesday, but then dropped a 62-52 decision to the Manti Templars on Friday. On Wednesday against Richfield, the Hawks and Wildcats both went up and down the court, but had lots of trouble scoring as layups and put backs were missed time and again. At the 4:30 mark of the opening period,
Spencer Steadman (4) takes a shot at the basket despite a Manti defender having other plans. The Hawks put in a good effort, but lost to the Templars by 10 points.

the score was just 3-2 for North Sanpete, with the Hawks hitting on a three, and Richfield gathering up a rebound and putting it back home. Wildcat coach Rand Janes didn’t like what he was seeing early on and called for time with North Sanpete up 5-2, but Coach Cris Hoopes also made some adjustments for the Hawks and North Sanpete jumped out to a 12-2 lead. As it has been most of the season, the Hawk offense is powered by its defense and North Sanpete was creating turnovers and at least getting extra shots at the basket. Those weren’t falling early on, but that began to change. With senior captain, Spencer Steadman doing a lot of the scoring in the first quarter, the Hawks continued to power through the tough times. A Joseph Garlick three gave North Sanpete the 12-2 lead, but two consecutive Richfield long-range jumpers narrowed that gap to 12-8 with under a minute to go. A deuce by the Hawks at the end of the stanza gave North Sanpete a 14-8 lead. Steadman ended the game with 20 points while Garlick tossed down 17. Scoring the first five points of the second quarter, the Hawks jumped ahead 19-8 until a Wildcat free throw three minutes in ended the Richfield scoring drought. North Sanpete’s biggest problem was foul trouble as sharpshooter, Jalen Sorenson, big man Ed Vasquez, and defensive specialist Brock Bailey each had to sit the bench with two fouls. After going up 22-11 the Hawks went cold from the field and Richfield closed to within 22-16 before the Hawks closed out the half, 25-16.
That seemed to be the theme of the night. North Sanpete would build a lead, Richfield would get back to within striking distance and then the Hawks would put on a quick burst to hold the lead. This held true throughout the third quarter. Richfield notched the first seven points of the second half, pulling to 25-23 before Coach Hoopes called for time. Steadman popped a three to build the lead up again, but Richfield again closed the gap within two points. The Wildcats took advantage of the size differential inside when Vasquez was whistled for his third infraction, but the Hawk defense kept Richfield down and actually helped to build up a 33-27 lead. Bailey was called for his third foul near the end of the quarter, but North Sanpete held on to a 36-31 lead. Using a swarming defense, North Sanpete rattled off the first four points of the final stanza and built the lead up to 13 by the five-minute mark. Once again the Wildcats refused to buckle and began raining three’s from all parts of the court. The Hawks hit their free throws down the stretch, going 18 for 27 in the game, to keep the Wildcats at bay. Spencer Steadman was certainly the player of the game for the Hawks. On top of his 20 points, the senior also took down four rebounds, dished five assists, and gathered in five steals to lead the Hawks in each of those categories. Manti The stands were packed on Friday night as the two teams from the Sanpete valley met together to battle for bragging rights, and position in the Region 15 race. A win the victor in a three-way tie for first, while
a loss means a two-team tie for fourth. The game started off in the Templars favor as Manti scored the first four points. The run was shut off by Steadman, who hit a three around the six-minute mark. Steadman had another great offensive night for the Hawks, dropping a game high 23 points on the night. Manti was doing most of its damage on the offensive glass, giving second and third chances at the hoop, leading to a 12-5 advantage for the visitors. North Sanpete closed the opening quarter with a sixpoint run but the Templars still held a 12-11 lead. The Hawks took their first lead early in the second, going up 15-14 with Steadman as the go-to guy on the offense. North Sanpete’s defense continued to stymie the Manti offense and the Hawks went up 21-16 before the Templars Matthew Nelson nailed a three. An old-fashioned three by Travis Thomson gave the lead back to Manti at 24-23. Nelson and Thomson combined to give the Templars 34 points. Down 29-25 coming out of the locker room to begin the second half, North Sanpete scored the first five points to regain the lead against Manti. The Templars switched from man to a 2-3 zone defense, but good defense and solid shooting by the Hawks helped to build a 37-30 advantage. Manti scored four points in the final three seconds of the third quarter and cut the Hawk lead to 43-41. The fourth quarter saw the Templars switch back to man defense and the game, which had been physical from the Please see HAWKS, Page A5

Rheta O. Cluff 1934~2018 MORONI-- Rheta Olsen Cluff, our beloved aunt and friend, finished her earthly journey Jan. 17, 2018. She was born May 10, 1934, in Moroni, Utah; to John LeRoy Olsen and Ethel Eveoline Oman Olsen, their eighth child. She grew up in Moroni during the Great Depression and her family learned how to be careful with what they had. Rheta graduated from Moroni High School and LDS Business College. She took the Civil Service exam and was working in Salt Lake City when she was called to serve in the Finland Helsinki mission. She served for two full years. She loved the Finnish people and continued speaking Finnish throughout her life. She married Chester (Chet) Cluff in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple. Five years later they moved, to northern California. They adopted two beautiful boys, Eric and then Jon, who were the loves of her life. While living in California, she operated a day care center at first caring for between nine or ten children, but when licensing was required, she could only care for six children in addition to her two. When Chet died in 1994, she moved back to Moroni and started working at the Ephraim Co-op Mercantile. Rheta was an active member of LDS Church and served faithfully in many positions. Rheta always made sure those around her were happy, always having a joke ready to get them laughing. Rheta was gifted at needle work, crocheting and knitting. Many of those items were provided for humanitarian services. She was a poet and loved to read. She is preceded in death by her husband, Chester Cluff, both sons, Eric Reed Cluff and Jon William Cluff; as well as her seven siblings, Oman LeRoy Olsen, Lloyd Vern Olsen, Evelyn Olsen Orstrom, Helen Olsen Celestre, Ralph Austin Olsen, Elliot B Olsen, Ida Olsen Donaldson. She is survived by a grandson, Johnathan Cluff and 34 nieces and nephews, to whom she was a surrogate mother. A remembrance of her life will be held at 11 a.m., Saturday, Jan. 27, in the Moroni LDS Stake Center. Family and friends may attend a visitation from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m., prior to the service at the church. Interment will be in the Moroni City Cemetery.

HAWKS From A4
outset, kicked up a notch. The players were feeling the pressure and the fan noise increased in intensity. Both teams struggled to score in the period and at the 3:30 mark the score was knotted at 45 apiece. Breaking the deadlock, Manti went up 47-45 and immediately went to a full-court press. At that time the North Sanpete players began to feel the pressure and quit doing the things that had given them success throughout the game. The Templars had been unable to stop Steadman all night long, but the senior barely saw the ball in the final four minutes. The Hawks also quit moving their feet on defense and Manti was able to penetrate the gaps and then get fouled. The Templars moved up to a 55-47 lead and owned the rest of the game. Steadman did hit a three to close the gap to 55-50, but that was as close at it would get. The Hawks have a busy week
coming up, playing three region games, with two of them on the road. North Sanpete will look to redeem itself against the South Sevier Rams on Wednesday night after getting blown out of the gym by 50 points in Monroe just a couple of weeks ago. Coach Hoopes will take his team on a long road trip, heading south to play the Grand Red Devils on Friday, and the San Juan Broncos on Saturday (results were not available at press time). The team will return home for a game against the Emery Spartans on Jan. 31 before closing out the regular season with two road games the first week of February. As of right now, South Sevier, Grand, and Manti each sport a 4-2 record, while North Sanpete and Emery are 3-3 in region play. Those teams are followed by Richfield at 2-4 and San Juan’s 1-5 record. Seeding for the state tournament will be interesting because no one had been a clear winner so far.
