Show I 8 A Lakasid Voice Review, Wednesday, Nov. 4, 1981 - of 'Spoken Word ' p' Spencer Kinard Gets Award By MAGOI HOLMES Review SterfR A resident FRUIT HEIGHTS Fruit Heights has received an alumni award from the Weber State College Alumni Association along with three other area men. Edith Hester, executive director of the WSC Alumni Association, said the criteria for the awards was based on the individuals service to the college, the community or the nation." of The award was given to J. Spencer Kinard, 359 S. 1400 E., last Friday at a banquet held at the college. Kinard is most noted for his tion as voice of the weekly posiMor- mon Tabernacle Choir broadcast, Music and the Spoken Word, Sunday mornings on CBS radio and television. He is currently news director at KSL-T- Kinard was raised in Layton and met his wife as he attended Davis High School in Kaysville. He is a graduate of the University of Utah but attended one quarter at Weber State College just after his LDS mission in the spring of 1963, he said. He began his career in broad-ca- st journalism during that quarter. During his youth he had been known as the boy with the camera, he said. He had always been taking pictures. The photojournalism bug bit him when he saw an earthmov-e- r laying the street in 1956. He said he ran to the high school to borrow a camera because at that time he didnt have a good one. He took a picture of the incident and caught a ride into Ogden to sell the picture to the Ogden Standard-Examine- r. It ran on the front page of one of the interior sections with a photo credit. That set the hook," he said. He began to freelance for several of the major newspapers in the area. At first he shot only pictures of sports at the school he was attending. Later he was asked by the Salt Lake Tribune to take pictures at other schools. Still a high school student, he entered the Utah State fair in 1958 and took first prize in the professional sports division. His interest in still photojournalism changed when as a student at Weber State, public speaking professor Ed Rowley told him to consider broadcasting as his career field. With his interest up, he attended a luncheon in the fall when he attended the University of Utah. As a result he began reading copy over the air for the colleges radio station, KUER. After a few jobs at small-tim- e radio stations, Kinard began working at KSL in Salt Lake City. In a short time he was the over both the KSL and news-manag- er radio and television news departments. Later when KSL separated its radio news department from its television department, he became the director over television. In 1968 Kinard was awarded a fellowship from CBS to study subjects other than journalism at the Columbia University in New York. Afterwards, CBS offered Kinard a job. During the two years he spent as a writer and producer for CBS News he helped to produce their radio coverage of Apollo Flights 12, 13, and 14. In the spring of 1971 he returned to KSL as a reporter. One year later he was asked by the LDS Church to be the voice on the Spoken Word program. The program had formerly been done by LDS Apostle Richard L. Evans, who had passed away the November before. Kinard accepted the challenge and has worked voluntarily for more than about 10 years, never missing a Sunday. The Spoken Word program is the longest continuous network program in the world, Kinard said. It has been on the air about 53 years. It is broadcast over many stations all over the United States as well as in foreign countries. It is estimated that 14 million viewers watch the program, Kinard said. Last month, Kinard was named the vice president of KSLTV News. Bountiful Will Buy LDS Church Property The Bountiful City Council BOUNTIFUL voted to buy a triangular strip of land from the LDS Church at 400 East and 400 North. If the sale goes through, the city will buy a 4.3 square foot plot of ground from the church. The land is next to an LDS ward chapel. The land will be used to build a road from 400 North to 400 East, to provide a shorter route between the two streets. The city may also place a traffic signal at the intersection of the new road where it intersects with 400 East in the future, council member Paul Allen said. ' - V-- v v .
