Show J uMaftl The Button Box . nnnn. Seagulls Everywhere But Nary A Cricket By PAT CUMMINGS Salt Lake Is suddenly blossoming out with many new buildings, some of them quite handsome structures. One of the recent striking additions on Main Street Is the new Prudential Federal Savings Building, a five story structure filled with airy spacious- ness. The exterior of the Prudential Building Is an eyestopper all In Itself. Tourists and Salt Lakers alike pause and then lean over the rail to admire the changing sunken garden keyed to the season; then unashamedlylook upward to stare at the seagulls, symbol of Utah. c INSTA-PRIN- i i T Instant Copy Service1 omero rody Copy) ti $3 50 your (From 100 Dupli-Copi- M 6'- KtI Sxrv letterhead!

The brochure given out by the bank to describe the building has this to say about the out of this garden gulls, soar one hundred sculptured bronze seagulls the full one hundred and twenty foot height of the building One almost gets the feeling theyre actually all ye and are rising Whpurposefully skyward. oever penned the brochure Is quite correct those seagulls have a purpose, all right. Theyre after the cricket. It seems, a shame to bring hungry California seagulls into Salt Lake and get their hopes up so deceitfully. After all, seagulls must have passed the story down for generations about the day their ancestors nearly collapsed from overeating In that far off Inland territory of Utah. Seagulls never had It so good. And up and down the glass front of the Prudential Building fly one hundred beautiful birds, sculpted life size In bronze by Tom van Sant. They seem to swoop and soar upward. And the object of their purposeful soaring can only be seen from the fifth floor-o- ne lonefy, solitary cricket. Perhaps there were more crickets to start with and the seagulls have eaten them at night. Or perhaps the artist gave the poor birds only one to begin with. Whatever It Is the odds are rather high 100 to 1 in whose favor, Pm not quite sure. When the cam- anti-pove- rty paign gets underway, the seagulls should really be high on the list. Five more crickets would boost their morale tremendously and give them an Incentive. As It Is, they are doomed to fly endlessly upward on the Prudential Building In pursuit of one poor little mouthful. Somehow, It just Holladay Youth Back Home isnt cricket. 277-97- 25 Thanksgiving; day was Indeed a happy occasion for the Robert L. Simpson family of 4561 Loren Von Dilve.

The first, by U sophomore Myron Syphus, was cancelled because of illness. The closest thing to Grant Johannesen turned out to day by Utah, Syphus Is, like Johannesen, a student of Mabel Borg Jenkins. He has a wonderful pair of hands and a brain to match. His rescheduled recital will be worth catching. Suzanne Sanborn, most promising of the current soprano crop, is a classmate of Syphus.

Which reminds us of the ceremonies Sunday for the dollar Los Angeles Music Center. Architects and planners of the Salt Lake Center will no doubt be on hand to add to their already bulging research. The Los Angeles Center is largely the result of Mrs. Norman Chandlers efforts. Now, If she will keep her fingers out of the artistic pie, the Angelenos should be in for good times. But Its difficult to keep ones fingers out of a pot that one feels one has brewed. This is a problem many cultural communities share with Los Angeles.
