Mor-tense- students welcome Japanese visitors Carbon County 4-- H By ANGIE HYRE Staff Writer What does Sukiyaki, baseball, Donkey Kong and McDonalds have in common? To three young Japanese students visiting Carbon County, these items are a link between their island country and the United States. This peculiar mixture of Eastern and Western cultures was brought together by the Utah LEX4-- Exchange program. The three visitors, Rumina Obuchi, 13, Fumihide Kito, 14, and Tomomi Kamura, 12, embarked on a flight to the United States to learn as much about American language and culture as possible. Tomomi is staying with Theron and Vera visit to Clark, Wellington, for the the states. Mrs. Clark said her children have picked up a lot of the Japanese language, even to the extent of her daughter, Mindy, counting to five in the foreign tongue. The ancient Japanese art of known as origami, is one of the hobbies Tomomi brought to show her host family. She has been entertaining the whole Mrs. neighborhood with her Clark said. With only a two-yestudy of English before the trip to America, a slight language barrier exists between the student and the host family. However, Mrs. Clark said, Weve sure learned a lot about sign language. Sue and Jerry Olsen, Price, are host family to Rumina Obuchi. Mrs. Olsen said when Rumina arrived her mother sent her a note saying she didnt like beef. When she first arrived, I would prepare a special dish of fish for her, Mrs. Olsen said. I conned her into tasting bacon on a camping trip and from now on she wont eat fish. I guess in Japan beef costs from $15 to $20 a pound. Mrs. Olsen said Rumina is very studious and writes in a journal every day without fail. In Japan, she goes to school about 11 to 12 hours a day, six days a week with only one month vacation, she said. During that one month they have a tutor. Rumina and Tomomi are preparing a favorite Japanese dish Sunday for the Olsen and Clark family. The dish is Sukiyaki. Mrs. Olsen is having to go to Salt Lake City for some of the special ingredients. The recipe consists of beef, paste made from the arum root, bean curd, Welsh onion, carrots, 20 eggs, taro (spice), kidney beans, spring rain, soy, sugar, and one octopus. The recipe calls for the cook to trap the octopus. Mrs. I can hardly wait to taste that, Clark said. Ill try anything once.

Salt Lake City native Maude Campbell died of natural causes Friday in Los Angeles at the age of 83. Funeral services were Tuesday at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints 2nd Ward Chapel in Pasadena. Graveside services were set for noon Thursday at the Salt Lake City Cemetery. Mrs. Campbell was known as The First Lady of Commercial Aviation after she made the trip from Salt Lake City to Los Angeles on June 10, 1926. it She flew the trip in an wood and fabric biplane, the Douglas M2.

One thing Mrs. Tanner has noticed about having Fumi stay with her family is there is no difference between a Japanese boy and an American boy. Theyre not different from us, Mrs. Tanner said. We have found that other than the language or sleeping in a bed there is no difference. When Fumi first arrived at the Tanner residence, he was unfamiliar with a bed as in Japan le they sleep on floor mats. Mrs. Tanner said she had to remind Fumi to sleep between the sheets. Souvenir hunting proved to be an interesting experience with Fumi. Mrs. Tanner said they stopped in Moab so Fumi could buy gifts for his family. He bought an Indian headdress for his family, Mrs. Tanner said. I thought it might have been made in Japan. Its hard to find souvenirs in Utah that werent made in Japan. open-cockp- Make a Cash Offer! fJL&SSlW Remember our Bridal Gift Registry aircraft missing since July 28. Were continuing the search pretty much covering the same areas again and expanding to the south, said Ott Webb, patrol mission coordinator for Utah. The plane was flown by George Holmes, 60, Belmont, Calif. Holmes and his wife, Ann, were last heard from when they left Salt Iake City on their way to Oshkosh, Wis., for the annual Experimental Aircraft Association convention. Stormy weather hampered search efforts in Wyoming early Tuesday, but about seven planes checked out reports of sitings of the plane, said spokesman Lee Hines. Its really opened up a can of wofms because several planes of that unusual type were on their way to the convention, Hines said. The patrol had searched about 2,000 linear miles and more than 6,000 square miles, he said. We continue to search as long as there is a lead. Of course, the hope of their survival diminishes each day. In Utah, eight planes were searching along all of the highways between Ogden, Heber and Mirror Iake near Kamas, Webb said. Several sitings of debris and other clues have proved to be false, he said. The missing aircraft was a Vari Eze, a pusher-pro- p plane with a large swept wing in the rear and a small wing at the front. h, A Hatch spokesman said Treasury Secretary Donald Regan would be in Utah Friday and probably would brief the Hatch campaign on when the president plans to visit Under new management Utah.
