Every summer I can recall has had an abundance of desirlike nights pleasant ables, enough to sleep out in the back yard most of the season - outdoor barbecues and parties with family and friends - bodies wearing e suntans and bathing o games of approlate-20t- h A Mid-Summ- and grass trimmers that I operate with far less enthusiasm in Augusts dog days than in Camelots lusty month of May - the delays and frustrations -- caused by seemingly-omnipre-seroad construction projects countless times Ive misplaced or lost my sunglasses, and -- You were there, werent you, Summer - When I eagerly awaited the arrival of darkness, so I could pick up KFI-Lo- s Angeles on my transistor radio, on which the early 1970s Dodger teams and Vin made-for-baseba- ll broadcasting voice helped foster Blue sentiments my that havent faded? And werent you there when the armies of mosquitoes, the heavens and the meals served up by that comical diner operator, greeted our gang on the familys many weekends in the Flaming Gorge recreation area during my early and midteens?

And before 1981, that is, seasons like the one were embracing at present have also meant an uninterrupted summer of exciting baseball pennant races and memorable pursuits of individual accomplishments in that sport. And, with July's Well, Henry David ThoreaiTs season of Thursday, June 25, fantas-tically-star- burn on my legs; while napping under overcast (right, overcast) skies on the sand in Newport Beach, Calif., a few days after my high school graduation. And I know you had something to do with the unreal heat which room permeated that upper-leve- l of the residence hall where I lived during my junior year in college. It was in the early stages of your season, Summer when I heard my named called during commencement exercises in the University of Utah Special Events Center. Then, a week or so later, if you recall, I boarded a classic, 62 Olds battleship with my brother and embarked on a Bicentennial-yea- r cruise through much of the United States. Yeah, Summer was there when all that happened. All that and more. Once I recovered from that sunburn, my agony-producin- g first summer out of high school became the time for my first fulltime job - that being in a Salt Lake pizza parlor.

(Could it be that my recent loss of hair is punishment for the nearly two years I went without a haircut?) The following summer? Living away from home, officially, - doing for the first time custodial and telephone work -learning without a trace of sorrow that Nixon had resigned. Subsequent summers took me to the oven which was that room I rented while carrying a class load of 17 hours, and to various sections of the U.S. as the nation celebrated its 200th birthday. (My brother and I were visitng a resicousin at his colonial-typdence in Massachusetts, when we learned that people in Utah were w -- e being rewarded for their patriotism that year with a lengthy and widespread power failure.) The magic of summer is due small part, of course, to the fact that its when many or most people take their vaca in no and Mrs. William tions. And in more recent years, Ive had the good for tune of better acquainting myself with the lively pleasures associated with travel. Three years ago it was fascinating England, and the have found summers of me succumbing to the lure of the West Coast - particularly California, with its unique and magnetic combination of seashore (no more sunburns acquired there, Im happy to say), mountains, desert and forest life leaving quite a favorable impression.
