Show Kiwanis Club presents Spiritual Living award The Spiritual Living Award was presented to Floyd Johnson and G. Milton Jameson by the Kiwanis Club during their luncheon on February 1, 1988. The Award reads: "Presented to. . .for recognition for your many hours of service to community, church,' and for devoted service to youth." Jameson has been Mayor of Orem. He also was in charge of the Bishops' Storehouse for many years. He served as Bishop for many years and as Stake President for "more years than that." Bill Huish said of Jameson, "All his life he has been engaged in giving support and help to other people. In the lifetime of most of us, a few people stand out and are exceptional. Jameson is among the few." ' Bill Huish, in introducing Floyd Johnson, said: "Floyd has the ability abili-ty to relate to young people as well as adults. Probably no one in Utah County Coun-ty has had more of a chance to influence in-fluence people more so than Floyd. He has served in local wards and stakes as well as BYU wards and stakes. He has been equipment Manager at BYU for the past 31 years and has been friends with and has had a great influence in the lives of many of the young men in the BYU athletic programs." ; Johnson was also the speaker at the luncheon. He related some of his experiences with BYU athletes. Of this year's basketball team, he said, . "Never have I seen such love and devotion and unselfishness to each other as I have seen in this basketball team-all in the name of brotherhood, all in the name of wanting one another to succeed." He concluded with, "That is what it is all about. Even in this Kiwanis Club, the success of each other is dependent upon the support that we give to one another." Kiwanis Club Citizens are best weapon to stop needless killing and poaching of big game Along with a threatening winter comes the sighting of deer and other big game around the valley. One conservation con-servation officer is asking for help to stop needless killing and poaching. Ray Remund, Information Manager for Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, told a small but very interested in-terested audience at the Orem Kiwanis Club Monday that, with budget cuts and other problems their agency faces, they need citizens to take action against the lawbreakers. "Officers are not enough to stop poaching. We need help from people like you," said Remund. He also stated that citizens arrests are possible, possi-ble, as well as their toll-free hotline ,to report illegal activity. Although in the past poaching has been considered an "in-season" threat, this no longer remains the . case. People are killing deer for their antlers and skins now to make money. Selling antlers and skins is legal but the means by which they are obtained ob-tained often is not. ., Remund said he even knew of one man who had helped put his son through college with profits made from selling these materials. This the State wants to stop. Outside of the current problems during winter, Remund cited State budget cuts and poaching "in-season" as two of the biggest obstacles the Division of Wildlife Resources faces. When asked by someone in the audience if budget cuts had seriously serious-ly limited their effectiveness, he emphasized em-phasized that most people only see the surface positions such as the conservation conser-vation officers (game wardens). But behind 60 on the front line there are 300 other employees ranging from biologists to technicians to accountants. However, this number continues to be cut back and is forcing more work on the employees who remain. Remund is a living example: In 1963 he was promoted from assistant In his position to the head director yet, at the same time, informed that bis former job would not be re-filled and le would have to assume both work Children of a Lesser God' linner-theatre production Feb. 25-March 1 at UVCC Utah Valley Community College's Col-lege's Theatre Program will produce the Pulitizer Prize winning play, "Children of a Lesser God." The drama deals with people in a hearing-impaired world and their relationships with the hearing world. The recent movie version won an Academy Award tor Marlee Matlin. A strong cast has been assembled assembl-ed for the February 25 opening dinner theatre production. Cherie Chamberlain Chamber-lain as Sarah Norman, Mark D. Ellison as James Leeds, Dale Link as Orin Dennis, Rob Brewster as Mr. Franklin, Pat Van De Graaff as Mrs. Norman, Heather Jarvis as Lydia, and Claudlne Boothe as Edna Klein. ' Doug Jolley is the guest director and has previously directed Cinderella in American Fork and recently directed Saturday's Warrior at Payson Community Theatre. The play will be produced in the FLOYD JOHNSON G.MILTON JAMESON loads which, combined, totaled 90 hours a week. Unfortunately, the public gets hurt because, according to Remund, "the general public owns all the wildlife." Specific programs planned to make the wildlife more enjoyable will eventually have to be forfeited. With about 615 of the 700 species of wildlife in Utah being "non-game," the agency has tried to protect habitats for moose, big-horn sheep, and save endangered species that have made the state a beautiful wildlife reserve. But, again, Remund said it all could be lost because of lack of money. Taking care of the other 85 hunted species is a little less difficult because of the money paid for licenses and the taxes on equipment used in the sport, i.e., fishing poles, guns, bullets etc. In this instance the hunter is a friend to the agency; but when poaching arises, he becomes the enemy. "In-season" poaching can create a big problem and is often rationalized rationaliz-ed by law-abiding and prominent citizens of the community. Many buy one license but then feet it's OK to get a deer for friends and family. After you've filled your tag, "you cant just get one for Grandma Grand-ma and Aunt Nellie," stated Remund. Multiple killings are often caused caus-ed by that search for the big buck, the trophy winner. But to counter this, the state tried something new this year by prohibiting the sale of licenses during the deer hunt. This was done to curtail cur-tail people from buying two to three licenses after they have killed the deer. One thing is for sure, according jo Remund, a little cooperation will . help the 200,000 deer hunters have a better experience; and the preservation preserva-tion of wildlife resources can be enhanced by community interest. The Stop Poaching Hotline is 1-800-622-3337. If you are unable to get through, Remund suggested contacting contac-ting the Highway Patrol dispatcher.

Police locate stolen gears A police report that someone was crawling under a truck in northeast Orem and stealing gears out of a differential dif-ferential led police to apprehend a suspect later when a patrolman spotted spot-ted a truck similar to the one that had been stripped of its gears. Police said the truck was parked and someone . was working on it. Investigating, the officer located the solten set of gears valued at $250. Investigation is ' continuing. DONALD K, JARVIS BYU professor heads teachers' Donald K. Jarvis, a BYU professor pro-fessor in the Department of Germanic and Slavic Languages, was elected president of the American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR) at the organization's annual conference recently in San Francisco, Calif. As president of the ACTR, Jarvis will oversee several bilateral exchange ex-change programs with the USSR that are a direct result of the Reagan-Gorbachev Reagan-Gorbachev agreements made in Geneva. The exchanges will involve high school and college students as welTas professors "The fact that the exchanges are bilateral is the news," says Jarvis. "For years, UJS. kids have gone to the Soviet Union, but no Soviet students have come to the United States." The ACTR is currently working on an exchange that would bring Soviet high school students to New York. BYU has already benefited from the ACTR program when professor pro-fessor Petr Igorevich Serdiuklv was a visiting professor during fall semester. A program allowing college student stu-dent to attend Soviet universities for periods longer than one semester is another project the ACTR is developing. develop-ing. "The number of college students wanting to go to school in the USSR has exploded since the Reagan-Gorbachev Reagan-Gorbachev agreements. Basically, we can send students with the funds and a minimal knowledge of the language," adds Jarvis. In addition to his leadership pos-tion pos-tion with the ACTR, Jarvis is also the chairman of the Language Training Committee, an appendage of the American Association for the Ad- , vancement of Slavic Languages. ' Jarvis has been a professor of Russian on BYU's Germanic and Slavic Languages faculty since 1970. He is also a former associate dean of general education at BYU. In 1964, Jarvis graduated magna cum Iaude with a bachelor of arts degree from BYU. He later earned doctorate degree in foreign language education with an emphasis in Russian Rus-sian from Ohio State University in 1970.
