Battle It's pleasant sometimes to 'ponder the scenes and activities of the "good old days," especially espec-ially if you lived during them. But the trouble comes, however when folks believe that they could fit them into life in the mid-1960's and make them work. ' According to the unsolicited opinion of this column, Utah people who have as their slogan, slo-gan, "Restore the Old Saltair Resort," are all wet. The ' original and somewhat ancient Saltair Resort failed as a going concern and was abandoned aban-doned simply because times changed. And when times do change, people change. When people change, they like to do other, things than they did formerly. for-merly. I suppose Saltair was in its heydey about the time I was an undergraduate student at University Uni-versity of Utah. I graduated in 1914. During those years if a young swain had 50 cents, he and his girl friend could ride the train from Salt Lake City to Saltair, spend the ' evening dancing to Owen Sweetin's orchestra and ride the train back again. The evening's entertainment was all for the one and same half-dollar. half-dollar. It was a Godsend for the young males, who were weak on finances and strong on a yen for the ladies. Of course, then Saltair. provided pro-vided rides and eating and fun concessions, but we hurried past them on our way from train to dance floor and the girls understood. During the dance intermissions, we just sat . and talked. i Communication was a valuable valu-able accomplishment in those days. Young couples even talked talk-ed as they danced.. Such was possible, of course." while dO- iaceii,"IPageaii4 Saturday tk Via 1965 Strawberry Days Queen Queen at Saturday Pageant.

They could float in the buoyant buoy-ant salt water and enjoy a picnic pic-nic lunch in the bowery under the huge dance floor. Swimming, Swim-ming, as I recall, cost 25 cents for adults and 10 cents, for children, chil-dren, if folks brought their own suits. Of course, Saltair was popul- ar then, because it was about the only place there was to go for fun and relaxation. Automobiles Auto-mobiles were few and owned principally by the rich. There were no telvisions, no radios, no sound pictures, no pleasure motor mo-tor boats, no public canyon recreation rec-reation areas, and a very few paved roads. Few dance halls operated in the summer, since air couuiuuiimg was uiuuivvvii. And there were no backyard or community swimming pools.
