Mr. Trepanier's letters let-ters have caused us a great deal of irritation.' His statement state-ment that the only people who would use the airport would be a few wealthy out of towners is a bunch of baloney! We don't ' consider ourselves wealthy or out of towners, but we own an airplane which we use for business and pleasure. I'm sure if he took the time, he would find several residents' own ' airplanes and several more who hold private pilots licenses. We currently bart our plane in Heber because we'd rather use a small ; airport facilities' than V Salt Lake City. Also the driving ; distance is cut in half. How much nicer it would be if the . : nearest airport were only 5 . minutes;away4. f; Since - this valley also,, consists of sdme oil fields, we believe the Coalville area will also benefit from this airport. There are a lot of pilots and iiots and privately owned airetpK That belong' to oil companies. We t8HTlslftiei'" it seems-farly trite' to take commercial airlines, but condemn this airport,, which a lot ol tnem wouia uy tneir own planes if there were an airport closer to Park City than Salt Lake's. People who vacation here, or in this area, who also fly would be more than happy to use this airport. Last year general aviation carried almost as manyx passengers as certified carr- iers. There are 760,000 active pilots who logged 39 million hours in the air, of which 8 4 percent were flown by private pilots! Over the past 15 years, the number of general aviation has grown from 68 ,000 to more than 162,000; the number of hours flown has tripled and the annual production of aircraft has doubled. So while we who fly privately owned airplanes or rent them, seem to be a minority, we are growing in leaps and bounds. Besides, it's less expensive than a . commercial flight, quicker i han a car and a lot more fun.

Park m I PUDlCattOn manor musr M afternoon for Wednesday to Editor As stated earlier, we park our airplane In Heber City. We'd like to set Mr. Trepanier straight on the opperation at that airport. The present concessioner has been there for 7 years. They pay the city of Heber for the lease to operate the airport. They have not gone broke trying to keep the airport open and to their . knowledge, neither did the people who operated it before them. The taxes we pay for our airplane go to Wasatch county, and regardless to your 'facts' Wasatch County does not maintain or subsi- dize that airport.. (Please get : yor" 'acts straight Mr; Trepanier). The only main- tenance done at that airport is a little snow removal,- by the Heber City crews, when and if they get around to it. The balance is done by the concessioner) Personally, we're tired of paying our tax money to Wasatch County, and; getting nothing in return. The cost of this airport is a big factor.' But when you hear of the ridiculous things L onvj (Fi , Stt, Ind County) spends our taxes will benefit many, many people. Perhaps you can't compare the population of Park City to that Of Jackson Hole, but. have you noticed the growth of Park City .lately? We're growing and will continue to do so. We finhly believe that tne Summit-Park Airport be self-sufficient. Com- ingfrom the Aspen area, 'we can remember when they couldn't see Aspen area, we jsee they now have 2 airlines plus a full time charter service. And a lot of private planes and pilots. . This letter has been a while in the writing as we've been checking the facts and figures given. They can be verified. Now you have another - opinion of the proposed airport. And you can be sure that we will be voting for someone , who wants the airport. f Bill and Pat;, Eppley Steve Oeringl 11 y-v ... . . Greg Schlrf Uank I Mils CltVi by rna, P.O.

Editor: We are ij the midst of the annual deer hunt, and Jhis;!. year more uian ever it .. ... . . 1S apparent that something ' must be done to bridge the disparity between the increasing in-creasing number of hunters and decreasing size of the deer herds. As Vicechair-' person of the Rockbottom Sportsmen's Club I would like to off a few suggestions sugges-tions to stimulate discussion in the hope some concrete proposals to improve future hunts can be put together to present to the state legislature legisla-ture when it meets in January. Let me say as a note of introduction that the Rock-bottom Rock-bottom Sportsmen's Club has been dormant for several . years following the ridicule we received for our efforts to stop the decline of the , Grizzly bear populations in ' Wyoming and Montana. Some of you old-timers may remember our plan to arm and train the grizzlies in the use of small-calibre rifles and handguns. It was our feeling that if the bears were trained to shoot back at the hunters, they would be able to hold their own. Some charged our plan was - "hairbrained", but I need remind few of you of the . Constitutional guarantee of the right to arm bears. I am sorry that plan died due to lack of support. Let's hope efforts to save the deer do not suffer the same fate. Our group offers three proposals. I will discuss the pro and con of each. (1.) Deer permits should be issued according to the need ; of the hunter, such as food stamps are distributed. The very poor would receive a deer tag for free, the middle income would pay a middle price, and the rich would pay a greater price. The very rich would not be allowed to hunt. My comrades strongly support sup-port this proposal, but I have reservations. Who is to say who is rich and who is poor? After the wealthy have purchased a truck with camper, four-wheel drive vehicle, travel trailer, horse with tack and trailer, rifle, ammunition and appropriate food and booze, are they not often as poor as the poor??? (2). Legalize cannibalism. I do not know the value of a If the presidential election was held today who would you vote for and why? , Marion Tate I'm going to vote for Carter. In the first place, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat. Secondly, I think Carter has more leadership qualities than Ford. : Ann Prince I'm voting for Ford. I just don't trust Carter. I think he is very vague with his answers. Ford has the experience and I just feel more secure with him. Jim Piper I don't think how a person votes should be a matter of public record. I think the question is inappropriate for publication. My personnel political beliefs are my business. Florinda Darch I haven't I'll make up my mind the Basically, I'm not very impressed with either Ford Greg Ashe Jerry Ford. I think Carter would cause too much inflation which will affect the tourists coming into town spending money . Ford also has a lot more experience.

Contrary to what an alternative nearly as f. he. is being accused of, he good. As the law reads, deer ' votes at times with the hunters must wear a "hunter I orange" shirt and cap. Why I not change that to require all deer hunters to wear a deer costume? This would put the deer and hunters on a more equal footing: deer hunting deer! Those hunters who now complain of seeing too many of their own kind would have the illusion of seeing literally , thousands of deer each day of the season. This plan would i bolster the deer herds, and , take a great step towards reducing the surplus hunters. I hope other sportsmen will consider these ideas, and add some of their own. Hopefully we'll see some more equitable f hunting laws by the time 5 next deer season rolls i around. Sincerely, Frank Erickson Peoa. Utah Moss Attacks Editor; I am taken aback each time I open the newspaper and see the attacks that are being made on Senator Moss. Some of the citizens of Utah seem to have somewhat of a fantasy concerning the legis- lative branch of government in our nation's Capitol. It is decided on that one yet. day I go to the polls. v ---. -r .Tiar.,. M V It is Senator Moss is beinr "conservatives" and other times with the "liberals." I have witnessed the tremen dous amount of time and ' effort he expends in fulfilling 'his, duties as the senior Senator from Utah. He is ' seen as one of the most . efficient and hard working Senators in the nation's , Capitol. Senator Moss position in the Senate makes him extremely valuable to the State of Utah and to the West. I believe that the . people of Utah would be ; doing themselves and the nation, a great disservice should he be replaced by a freshman senator who will be on the outside looking in. 't. It is interesting to note that in many states, including ' some of our neighbors, i reelect their eficient, hard working senators such that those states are able to I benefit by the legislative I system we know now enjoy. I 1 am hopeful that we Utahns also benefit by doing i likewise. Senator Moss, upon ; his reelection, will be one of ! the top ranking members of fthe U.S. Senate. That ' fact alone is a distinct advantage for the State of Utah, f . "t Sharon Nielsen rv --.-- rAh Setae Anne Prince Florinda Darch Steve Seegmiller Dear Editor; Knw.w.feich side of the butter is on. rejtMMe right road in supporting a clean industry and a 'year- round one, tourism. We have a start in a good winter industry and with upcoming convention facilities a summer-winter one. A tourist is paying 3 percent extra tax just to use something he can't keep. He stays an average of seven days and spends over $50.00 per day per person and 4 percent of these tourists even spent $1,000 to $1,500 per visit, that keeps us in business. I'm closely involved in the issues and would like to encourage everyone to write in Bruce Decker for County Commissioner Commiss-ioner because he knows the issues and the right answers. Dale Nelson Pres. of Park City Lodging Association Board of Directors of . Utah Ski Association Sirloin Saloon Roquost Stirs Liquor Dobato The Sirloin Saloon Restaurant Restau-rant received the approval of ' the Park City Council Thursday Thurs-day evening to continue their efforts to obtain a private club license from the Utah State Liquor Commission. "Park City is dependent on the tourist and if we make it any tougher to get a drink than it is now it is going to hurt everyone," Councilman Jan Wilking told his colleagues. In the ensuing discussion Councilman Jack Green, expressing a concern over the number of private clubs already in operation on Main Street stated, "If we don't already have a policy on approving private clubs let's start one.", . Wilking responded, "I think our policy should be to have as many private clubs as possible." 1 After voting to approve the Sirloin Saloon's request the Council declined to create a liquor license policy.
