Show 1 Ink mului invaaiMI, rt. 4, 19 With the Editor Whenever sports fans gather to discuss their favorite teams and coaches, invariably the talk gets around to the number of games won or the number of wins a coach has in his lifetime. Never is it mentioned the possibility that the coach, despite not winning, taught the players "a sense of good sportsmanship, fair play, and love of a game, win or lose. The values and priorities that the majority of our nation places on its youth is to win, at almost any cost. Cnnseouentlv we have cheating going on at all levels in recruiting, school, athletic contests and later on in business. And when these kids grow up following the belief that you must win or you're a failure, its almost tragic to see some of them not realize their goals and resort to drinking or drugs to help ease the pain of failing. It was refreshing to talk to the head coach of Cottonwood High School about his team and their inability to win. He had been advised by the administration upon his hiring that the most important thing was not winning. Even though that would be good for the kids; the important thing was that the kids have a good time playing the game and that they enjoy playing. They must also, hopefully, gain some affection for the coach who has a tremendous responsibility in helping build character in the young men. Its interesting to note that the Cottonwood High places as much emphasis and sup- port financially with the music and extra-curricul- ar academic programs as they do with athletics. This idea of having a good time and not being obsessed with winning are characteristics I see in Gary Swan, basketball coach at Sky View. Ive approached him on this subject and he agrees that winning isnt the only thing however he does place heavy emphasis on executing to the best of one's ability and that mentally, one should always be prepared. If a player gives all hes got then that's all you could ask for. As a coach, he exhibits another quality that I find rare. One of accepting blame and not pushing it onto someone else. Ive heard Gary on more than one occasion accept full responsibility for a loss. He not only accepts blame for the losses, he gives credit to others when they win. Following last Fridays win over Logan, he heaped nothing but praise on his players and particularly his assistants, Joe Robertson and Ken It's qualities Thompson. CENTS AN HOUR We've heard of an opening in Hyde Park that is available immediately. The work is difficult and mentally taxing and pays 21 cents an hour. Do I hear any takers? The line forms on the right. Apply at the Hyde Park City Office. Thats where youll be working if you agree to councilman. Thats right, the Hyde Park mayor and councilmen make the grand total of 21 cents an hour for the work they do. They get paid $20.00 per year for a job that requires four hours a night, two nights a month. Of course, it requires that you already believe that the Hyde Park mayor and councilmen are overpaid for their work and even want to go so far as to propose a cut in pay. But, I seriously think that would be voted down. teachers made the decora- tions used.

Lawrence tells us that mining in the three canyons had been tried since about 1875. He then tells how a vague rumour was investigated on the shaft of a mine in the head of Birch Canyon."

Another mine was found near the other one by Gaylard Sorenson and his three sons, Brent, Ralph and lives, formed hatred, By THEODA DOWNS of Smithfield Allen. This is probably the mine worked by Alma Hill-yard. Lawrence goes on to tell us that Main Canyon was searched for mineral from about 1885. Richard and William Pilkington and a Mr. Reeder dug for gold and silver west of Lime Quarry Hollow. He records that a mine with a tunnel of about 100 feet deep is one mile west Another mine mile west of Black Stump one-ha- lf bridge was worked in 1972 by a Ted Pitcher and two others, but no mineral was found to pay for the expense.

Lawrence concludes that "We may now assert the fact, no precious metals have been found within the three canyons," but as long as people have dreams of striking it rich, there will probably be boys and grown one-ha- lf up boys too, who will search out these mines and will continue to look for likely spots where precious minerfor al might by waiting-jus- t them.
