Publisher Mrs. Bonnie Stable LaVora Wayment Keith Duncan Cindy Shy Pam Zaugg Trade Bailey Dear Sir: Although w'e have never had the opportunity of meeting I have heard a great deal about you from one of Roy, Utahs most wonderful citizens. That person is one Emma Russell. Let me explain. About one year ago, when I was working with a printing firm in Salt Lake City, Mrs. Russell brought her manuscript in to see if we could publish it. It was a large project the manuscrip t was at least 700 pages long and contained well over 200 pictures we werent sure if we could handle such a large task . After deliberation, and several more meetings with Mrs. Russell, we signed a contract for the job. At least three to four months had elapsed. I had the privilege of spending hours on end reading the entire manuscript and making s uggestions, corrections, etc. During that time I got to know t he people, places and history of Roy as if it were my own hom et own and I had never been there. (My first visit to your fai r city was on Jan. 11 of this year!) Due t o uncontrollable circumstances, I was not able to persona ,lly supervise the project for Mrs. Russell, as I left that particular company but maintained correspondence with Mrs. Russell thereafter. You see, when I met Mrs. Russel 1, 1 was rather amazed that such a fragile woman had done such a wonderful service to her community. I came to love h;r very much-sh- e is so special. It is not an easy task to put together a book, especially a history of a city like Roy. The diadication, the long, hard hours of writing and editing-reall- y an amazing feat. I am honored to have been able to make acquaintance with Mrs. Russell and contribute my smalJi part to FOOTPRINTS OF ROY and to your com-muty. I thank you most sincerely. Perhaps the greatest honor came when Mrs. Russell pres ented me with an autographed copy, thanking me for my help , of her book. Few communities in the world have an Ennma Russell and Roy should be proud to have such a person, land to have their very own history in a book. Just as I am proud, and honored, to be able to place Footprints of Ro y in a prominent place upon my library shelf. each other Ad. Mg r.

Executive Secretary Utah Education Association Lambert argued. Funny how we sometimes overlook the things that can seriously affect the ability of children to learn in school. Let a family argument occur just before young Carl leaves for school. It may upset him so much that he simply cant concentrate on his studies for hours. A problem with a friend or another student can affect a young person the same way. Some youngsters come to school hungry, and teachers will tell you emphatically: Hungry kids cant learn. Many a teacher is confronted with the problem of. a youngster falling asleep in class. Parents can help to remedy this problem by making certain that students get to bed early enough to get proper rest. Sometimes, its a physical problem that stands between the youngster and learning. If a child cannot hear well, that child may not be able to learn well. If Carl cant see the blackboard, he may be missing a major part of his lessons. Those are problems ' that often are easily overcome, once recognized. As important as any of those learning problems is one thats growing in our society today. Its child abuse-phys- ical injuries inflicted on a child.

One of these is the program for educating handicapped children. This is funded at only 90 percent of anticipated costs. Another such item is the appropriation for busing students to and from schools.

INSULATION Id Despite the fact that education Governors request for a four percent budget reduction, public education in Utah did experience cuts. Factors in the School districts meet the cost increases in power, natural gas, gasoline and supplies. They should consider the added cost of living for employees as expenses that are just as compelling and necessary. Utahns should know that a real g increase for educators does not hinge on whether the state has the money to fund it. The money is there. It is simply a matter of the school.

Utah should meet the increase for educators because the profession is losing qualified practitioners to other fields. If educators should receive less than a increase, the loss of splendid professionals could spiral. More and more educators are also compelled to take second jobs to meet their costs. authorities. As parents take out their frustrations on children in this way harming them physically and emotionally the adults are making it difficult, if not impossible, for the schools to teach these battered youngsters. The process of education involves the whole child. All parents should do everything they can to see that their children are treated fairly, kindly and with high regard.

Thus, tire number of dollars the district had anticipated for educating each student is reduced. The result of this is school program cuts. This can mean reductions in such areas as smaller salary increases, increasing already heavy plass loads, curtailing services and . . , cutting programs. Under these circumstances, the results are actual cuts in the school district budget. With these cuts it is obvious that an additional four percent cut would have tremendous negative impact on school districts ability to maintain quality programs. An added four percent cut would be disastrous. parent. portionment, and therefore, may be able to draw boundaries as to include his new At residence. least representative, It should be noted that schools do not refuse services to students whether their education is budgeted or not. All indications are that few, if any, school districts were able to reduce their budgets to meet the Governors request for voluntary reductions. the Legislature makes an appropriation for it estimates the number of students in the schools, public state, and then appropriates the amount of money required for the value of the Weighted Pupil Unit. When the number of Weighted Pupil Units exceeds the number of estimated by the Legislature, no more funds are provided by the state to meet the additional costs. This year, Utah school enrollment exceeded the Legislatures estimate by about 1,000 students. by Dr. Daryl J. McCarty Republicans would have had to be appointed to the unexpired terms, Lambert noted. Its just that I think that the Republicans, who estimate. Also, when Home Republicans and Democrats alike believe that legislators should live in their own districts, regardless of whether the law so requires. law WhenJhe Governor asked school districts to cut spending by four percent last summer, most school districts had alreadyigned contracts with employees. Salaries amount to about 80 percent of a school districts expenditures, so the major part of most budgets was already set. Most of the other district expenditures are fixed charges costs over which the district has little or no control. Among these are the costs of utilities, insurance, busing students to and from school and student population growth beyond the Legislatures cost-of-livi- Si .aff district at g Thank you, Steven L. Shields Think your home is insulated? RAPCO FOAM is In his budget message to the Utah State Legislature, Gov. Scott Matheson said that his proposed budget might appear large, but 99 percent of its expenditures would simply fund the current level of services now in state government; the remaining 1 percent primarily addresses the growing workload pressure from Utahs increasing population. Gov. Matheson added that the Number One priority in his budget is adequate compensation for public sector employees, and he went on to state that his proposal should be sufficient (in most districts) to provide for a adjustment and normal longevity increments for teachers. Analysis of the proposal shows that it would not fund the increase, pay increments and follow the Governors statement that it is a 99 percent maintenance budget. The Governor stated that his recommendation for public is a 15.6 percent increase over the education in 1980-8- 1 current estimate for 1979-8Educators should understand the implications of that figure. First of all, a 5.85 percent increase is needed just to provide for the student population growth next year in Utah. That leaves only 9.75 percent to meet inflation, and it should be remembered that the Consumer Price Index climbed by 12.1 percent (the Governors figure) from Oct. 1, 1978 to Sept. 30, 1979. It should also be remembered that the cost of increments and lane changes amounts to an additional 2 percent, approximately. In light of this, it is unrealistic to assume that school increase to employees districts could provide a with the appropriation proposal. The Governors proposal calls for an increase of only 11.5 in the Weighted Pupil Unit, and assumes that school districts cut back their budgets this year to make a four percent saving in the face of a tax revenue shortfall. ni Owner-Publisher-Edit- or M.
