Show The Daily Utah Chronicle, Friday, April 2. 1982 Page Six Colorado State and A ir Force at bat Ute baseball team heads for Colorado three games against the Air Force. Ute head coach Lonnie Keeter was disappointed that his team couldn't open with BYU and thinks the current weather by Tony Tsakakis Chronicle staff The University baseball team will do battle with not only Colorado State and Air Force this weekend but with the weather as situation is hampering his squad. "Lack of practice time is our biggest problem this year." Keeter said. Keeter left with his team on Wednesday in the hopes of getting some extra practice time in Colorado. The Ute coaching staff has also announced the starting lineup for this weekend's action. Steve Varechok will open at pitcher in the first game on Friday, with Tod well. The Utes were forced to postpone two earlier contests with BYU and hope to avoid the elements this week as they travel to Colorado where they will try to open their 1 982 Western Athletic Cenference season. Utah journeys to Fort Collins Friday and Saturday for a three-gam- e set with Colorado State and then moves on to Colorado Springs Monday and Tuesday for Ute pitcher Steve Varechok Fritchman scheduled for the second Track team will compete at Ricks by Ken Minas Chronicle staff The Ute men's track team will travel north this weekend in the Ricks College Invitational meet. The contest will get under way Saturday at the campus in Rexburg, Idaho, where the Utes will be joined by Boise State plus all of Montana's schools along with the host team. Some Utes to look out for at the meet include Charles Waller, who clocked at 21.5 in the 200 meters last week in Ogden, and Dan Devey, who ran the 800 meters in 1 :53 at the same meet. Utah will be competing without high jumper Mark Davenport this week as he will be performing in Palo Alto, Calif., in the Martin Luther King Games to be held at Stanford University. The best high jumpers in the country will be on hand and it should be a good test for Davenport, who has leaped 7-- 3 this year indoors. The Ute women's team has a bye this week, but Ute Coach Mike Jones is pleased with performances put forth by three members of the team who ran last week in a meet in Berkeley, Calif.

Steve Springer will start in right field, with Mike Barnett in center and Mike Young At the least, it means that it's difficult to understand human nature. At the most, it means skiers are pretty stupid. All summer long skiers worry that there won't be enough snow for them to play on in the coming season. They fret and worry. They wring their hands. They get spinal snaps every time a cloud rolls across the September sky. But here it's April, resorts have some of the best snow in years, and ski resorts are closing for lack of interest. According to Packy Longfellow, information director at Snowbird, it's all a matter of economics. By the time April rolls around, people have just lost interest in skiing. And with fewer people coming to the resorts, it simply costs too much to stay open. According to a Deer Valley spokesman, the skiing there is superb, but too many people leave Park City after the Easter weekend to make staying open economically possible. Snow conditions are reported excellent in all the canyons. Although the stuff that has dropped recently is more like the wet concrete commonly served up in Washington state resorts than the light Rocky Mountain powder we've become accustomed to, it is still good snow for this time of year, and will make a great base for spring skiing. Oh well, a great base for those who want to hike up. Actually. I guess it isn't as bad as all that. Three resorts will stay open into May, and Snowbird will continue its summer skiing program this year. That means skiing in the Little Cloud area until June 20. Just for your information, here are the snow-depth- s and the closing dates of major local resorts: Alta 185 inches, early May; Brighton 178 inches, first week of May; Deer Valley 146 inches, April 12; Park City 1 35 inches, end of April; Park West 107 inches, April 158 inches, June 20; Solitude 176 4; Snowbird inches, April 18; Sundance 82 inches; April 18. So, while you're not greasing your bike chain, or patching your backpack, you still have time to get in a few more hits of snow. Afterall, if you don't do it now, you'll hate yourself in August.
