Show Nov. 27, 1973 Signpost Page 5 Lion injures talent show performer The performance of "Guess Who's Coming to the-Coliseum" was marred by an accident Tuesday evening involving a young woman performer and an African Lion. Ann Hadlock, 21, of Washington Terrace, suffered multiple lacerations on her face and neck inflicted by the lion's teeth when he moved upon her during the closing minutes of the Latter-day Saints Student Association Talent Show. The lacerations included one on her forhead and two on the hair-covered part of her head. She was reported to be in Energy crisis brings tax breaks, research The energy crisis may bring people tax breaks if they have installed devices which conserve energy, and it may activate shale-oil research and development in Utah. Presently the senate is considering an amendment Sen. Frank E. Moss has introduced which will allow deductions up to $1,000 for the addition of materials that make a home more efficient for heating or cooling. It includes solar energy device deductions, a provision added by California Sen. Alan Cranston.- The Moss amendment is also retroactive to this tax year so that if passed, homeowners who have already purchased storm windows, caulking, insulations, etc., will be allowed deductions on their income tax for this year.- - - - Moss noted that the solar energy provision is a realistic measure. "There are solar energy heating units now available," said Moss. "Hopefully this amendment will encourage the use of such units, which would be a big help in not only energy conservation but the antipollution effort as well." Advertising campaign Another amendment sponsored by Moss has been accepted by the Senate. The amendment directs the President to organize and cooperate with advertisers in preparing and distributing an advertising campaign to inform and educate the public on the need to conserve energy and ways of doing it. Senator Wallace F. Bennett from Utah is pushing for more money to be spent for research and development of Utah's coal and oil shale resources over the next decade as a result of the President's new energy program. Bennett pointed out that the President has called for the expenditure of $10 billion over the next five years for energy research and development."Although a breakdown of this budget is not yet available, I would expect that substantial sums will be spent on coal gasification and coal and oil shale research in Utah," he said. Select site In Bennett's speech to the Senate, he urged Interior Secretary Rogers C.B. Morton-to expedite both the selection of a new site for Kaiparowits and the environmental impact statement for the proposed oil shale test plant. The Utah Senator praised the Senate Interior Committee on its quick action on the President's energy message and urged the Senate to approve the conference report on the Alaska pipeline bill. Bennett has also asked the Interior Department to speed up approval of a final environmental impact statement on the proposed oil shale leasing program. The technology from the prototype plants may lead to a full-scale oil shale industry by the end of the 1980's. The Green River formation of the three states contains an estimated 600 billion barrels of oil in the high-yield deposits.

Zamba, a lion famous for its appearances on television and in the movies, was apparently attracted by the odor of Hadlock's blonde wig, a spokesman noted. Reached for wig According to sources, the lion apparently reached over and tried to pull the wig off her head, biting Hadlock in the process. Witnesses on the scene said Hadlock fell off the back of the platform, out of view of many people in the audience. Indications were that many people involved in the performance itself were unaware of the incident as it was happening. The lion's owner and trainer LaMont Cox of Ventura, Calif., had the lion on chain in the center stage when the animal apparently moved on Hadlock. Cox was reported to have sustained minor injuries to his fingers when he leaped upon the animal in an attempt to wrestle it away from the woman. The performance, sponsored by the LDSSA and the Ogden Institute of Religion, was held in the Weber State College Fine Arts Auditorium before nearly 1,500 people. ICommittee starts!
