The teacher usually decides which children could benefit from the program by testing them in phonics, reading, and comprehension. Then he trains the aide in how she can most satisfy those needs. The state and district also provides workshops to help train the aides. Specialists in the field visit from USU and BYU to bring help and additional information to the helpers. The teachers aides aid in the program. They do not teach. They are another set of eyes and ears. They are there to help a child with a development problem, said Louis Rigby, principal. In the Lewiston elementary the aides work for approximately four hours a day. Students needing additional help from the third, fourth, fifth and sixth grades are placed in one large room with one teachers aide helping no more than two children at the same time. KATHLEEN LOOSLE became a listener six years ago at the Summit School when the Sullivan theory of studying phonics and reading on a one to one basis became part of the curriculum. Here, she listens to fifth grader, Lester Cole.. Pauline Griffin having worked in the programi for four years takes charge of the activities in the large room scheduling aides and their students. The programs are more limited in the kindergarten, first and second grades. The aides work on a one to me basis also but they go directly into the classroom or hall to work. Mr. Timmins, principal of the Lewiston elementary, feels that the programs are very successful. TTie students are able to overcome difficulties and catch up with the class in reading, spelling or math by using these programs. ' The main criteria for a teachers aide, according to Carl Johnson, Cache Board of Education Coordinator for the program, is the warmth of the individual. When an opening becomes available for teachers aides we look more at the personality and the warmth the person generates rather than their educational ground, he said. back- A school has to have both programs in order to receive help from Title I. An effort is made to provide every child with his fair share at Lewiston. The Title I program is merely a supplementary effort to help the other programs. Over 300 elementary students are being helped with the listening programs and approximately 60 are being helped through Title I. f average residential customer. The maximum increase to any me class of customer would be 16.55 per cent, the minimum increase 11.8 per cent (to public street and highway lighting). In its application today, the utility said that the increase is necessary to recover higher costs already incurred as a result of actual financing rates on 1974 construction which were higher than those allowed by the commission in the last rate case, increased costs of coal brought about by recent wage settlements negotiated by the United Mine Workers, and other increased costs Student of the Week Diann Thornley, a senior View, has been chosen senior of the week.

Also affecting costs is the November, 1974, failure of the companys 330,000 kilowatt, third unit and the cost of replacement power from neighboring utilities. In December of 1973, the utility applied for rate relief and was granted an average increase ot 16.7 per cent effective in September. The firms president, E. A.

By this application Utah Power & Light Company seeks authority to increase its rates and charges for electric service in the State of Utah so as to produce additional gross revenues of $20,262,000 annually based m the volume of sales during 1974 adjusted to 1975 condi- tions. The applicant alleges that the increase in revenues stated above is necessary for the following reasons: (a) That its rate base for year end 1974, based m ten months actual and two months estimated, allocable to electric service in the State of Utah is $567,878,000 which requires additional revenue of $12,268,000. The rate base figure of $567,878,000 represents an increase of nearly $76,000,000 over the rate base arrived at by the Commission in its Report and Order issued August 13, 1974, in Case No. 6978, involving the rates and earnings of Utah Power & Light Company.

The applicant proposes to make the increased rates and charges effective February 1, 1975. The applicant proposes to spread the increased revenues among the various classifications of service on a generally uniform basis percentagewise. The applicant is hereby ordered to file with the Commission not later than January 14, 1975, in written form, all of its proposed testimony and exhibits and provide a copy thereof to any party requesting it.
