Page Four FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1961 THE SALT LAKE TIMES Look Homeward Angel Slated at Playbox M ff " j ROBERT HYDE WILSON Robert Hyde Wilson has com-pleted plans for what he believes to be one of the most exciting plays to have come from Ameri-can dramatic literature since the turn of the century. "Look Homeward Angel," the multi-awar- d winning play adapt-ed by Ketti Frings from the Thomas Wolfe novel, is to be seen August 8-- 12 at the Univer-sity of Utah Playbox Theatre-in-the-Roun- d. corner of First So. and University Streets. The play is about Thomas Wolfe and the people he knew as a young man. It is an auto-biography and a biography. In the whirlwind of events, he has captured the comedy of youth, the pathos of lost understanding, and the tragedy of lives and life. In important roles, those of ithe immediate family are Lua-'cin- e Pingree and Larry Roupe, Marvin Boyer and James Kay Lowe. Eudora Zarr and Ted Dansie pair to complete the fam-ily circle. Seen in other major roles are Barbara Sine ,May Green Davis, Ken Jenks, Caro-lyn Conwell and Neil Warren. Not since "Picnic" of 5 years ago, notes Robert Hyde Wilson, "have I had a cast that has been more dedicated and enthused. Every role is choice, whether a two-lin- e walk-o- n or one of the major roles. Every actor is also choice. Their will and spirit make the production a success before production dates." Tickets for ed Playbox can be purchased at Zion's Bookstore, downtown or Sugar House.

Volume 41 Number 9 Utah Demo Appointed By Administration To Farm Position Senator Frank E. Moss (D-Uta- h) Tuesday announced the appointment of John Zupko of Roosevelt to be Farmer-Field-ma- n for the Utah State Agricul-tural Stabilization and Conser-vation Service. Mr. Zupko is a Duchesne County farmer and rancher who has been active in Uintah Basin civic, farming, and political af-fairs. He will serve the central area of Utah, consisting of Carbon, Daggett, Duchesne, Emery, Grand, Juab, San Juan, Uintah, Utah, and Wasatch Counties. His headquarters will be at Roose-velt. Under the direction of the State ASC Committee, he will administer several agricultural programs, including: conserva-tion program, sugar beet, pro-duction adjustment acreage allot-ments, marketing - quotas, price support, soil bank, wool pro-gram, and livestock feed pro-gram. "In this drought year, Utah is fortunate to secure the services of a man with Mr. Zupko's quali-fications to assist farmers with the ASC cost-sharin- g program to conserve our water," Senator Moss said. "Administration of this program is of the greatest importance," he said, "not only to provide crop production this year, but to assure the future of Utah agriculture." Mr. Zupko has served on the boards of directors of the Moon Lake Water Users Association, the Dry Gulch Irrigation Co., and the Roosevelt Commercial Club. He has been Duchesne County Weed Supervisor and chairman of the Production Mar-keting Association of Roosevelt District. He has been active in the Democratic Party, having served as chairman for Roosevelt and for Duchesne County. the-LEA-SED GRAPEVINE Salt Lake County Attorney Grover A. Giles this week ruled there has been no criminal vio-lation of Salt Lake City budget laws and told Mayor J. Bracken Lee he declined to issue com-plaints. on the record. Mayor Lee recently asked the county attorney to prepare a complaint against certain pres-ent and former members of the Salt Lake City Commission al-legei- ng violation of budget laws from 1952 to 1960. In making his decision Mr. Giles informed the mayor by letter that "the requisite element of criminal intent is not present A resolution urging the neces-sity of a Salt Lake City bond issue which would provide for complete sewage treatment was adopted this week by the Utah Professional Council. The Coun-cil resolution petitions the City Commission to submit a single bond proposal sufficient to build a plant which will meet stand-ards of the Utah Water Pollution Control Board. Salt Lake City Commission this week discussed the possi-bility of holding the city's capital improvements bond election on Sept. 6 instead of the scheduled target date of Sept. 5. City Re-corder Herman J. Hogensen said that because Sept. 5 follows La-bor Day holiday it might be diffi-cult to prepare polling places for the election. A move to transfer $1 million worth of north-sout- h freeway construction funds into purchase of right of way for the Salt Lake belt route was being sought this week. Elias J. Strong, a member of the State Road Commission, explained that right of way costs are going up so fast that it will save the state a great deal of money to buy the land now. An ordinance creating the of-fice of internal auditor to be filled by the Salt Lake City Com-mission at a salary of not less than $6,000 a year has been writ-ten by the city attorney's office. Allan D. Johnson, chairman of the Utah State Liquor Control Commission this week reported the state might have to shut down some of its outlets before the end of the biennium, June 30, 1963. The move, he said, will be necessary to stay within the commission's $2,200,000 budget. The State Water and Power Board has accepted a low bid of $100,316 for building of an earth fill dam on the Little Deer Creek project near Kamas, Summit County. Cadet Frank W. Miller, son of Mrs. Nettie W. Miller, 386 J St., is receiving six weeks of training at the Atmy Reserve Officer Training Corps summer camp at Fort George G. Meade, Md. The training is scheduled to be con-cluded this month. During this training Cadet Miller is receiving practical ex-perience in tactical, technical, and administrative subjects with special emphasis placed on the duties of a second lieutenant in an infantry unit. He is a 1957 graduate of West High School. rio ' Season of the Sneeze (Continued from Page One) cause typical hay fever symptoms, such as sneezing, wheezing, coughing, burning eyes and runny nose. Physicians can, through allergy tests, determine just which substances are the offenders. They are then able to reduce sen-sitivity and prevent further attacks by injection of certain materials. For those hay fever sufferers who cannot tolerate desensi-tizing injections, the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry has .provided a number of medicines which do offer relief for hay fever victims. Antihistamines are the best known of the products. They are believed to provide relief from symptoms in from 70 to 95 per cent of cases. Cortisone, hydrocortisone, prednisone, and corticotropin are also administered by physicians in certain cases. Although rarely fatal, hay fever is not a disease to be taken lightly. If not attended to promptly, it may well develop into bronchial asthma. The Allergy Foundation of America estimates that at least 16,000,000 man days of working time are lost every year by hay fever sufferers. How You Say It Reveals More Than What You Say As any girl knows, there is a world of difference between the simple statement, "I love you," and a tortured "I . . . er . . . love you." This is cited by John Kord Lagemann in a Readers Digest article, "Your Words GiveYou Away," as an example of the pauses between words being more revealing than the words. Try "listening between the lines," he urges. For instance, we instinctively notice how often someone says "I," "me," or "mine." To most of us, excessive use of the first person singular simply means that the person is a bore but it can mean something more. "When one's automobile is out of order, one is likely to refer to it oftener. Likewise, when a person's psychic equipment is grating and squeaking, it is understandable that his attention should be directed toward it much of the time." Counts made at the University of Iowa and the University of Cincinnati demonstrate that hospitalized mental patients use "I" oftener than any other word about once every 12 words, three times as often as normal people. The use of passive verbs instead of active is another clue to personality; the person who says he "was taken" to a place probably feels less in control of his world than the one who says he "went" there. One way of recognizing a person's values is by cataloguing the adjectives he uses to express approval or disapproval. A man whose usual words of praise relate to strength or size "powerful," "overwhelming" may not get along with a woman whose value judgments are in terms of beauty versus ugliness. oOo Protessor Named To Film Position Dr. David E. Miller, Professor of History at the University of Utah and noted author, has been named by Ensign Pictures to the board of advisors, it was an-nounced today by Wayne W. Thomas, Executive Vice-Preside- nt. Dr. Miller is best known as the author of an award-winnin- g historical novel. "Hole in the Rock." The research and writing of this book took over six years. Dr. Miller's first assignment in this new position will be to act as historical consultant on the motion picture "Hole in the Rock." The movie will deal with the events surrounding the his-torical of colonizing pioneers who made an "impossible" wagon trip in 1879-8- 0 to establish a Mormon mission in San Juan. Ensign Pictures Vice-Preside- nt in charge of Production, Kermit J. Sessions, states "Dr. Miller is considered the outstanding au-thority on this famous trek and will prove invaluable in bringing the authenticity desired to this movie." Dr. Miller, a native Utahn, re-ceived his B.A. and M.A. degrees from Brigham Young University and obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Southern Califor-nia. He has been on the Univer-sity of Utah teaching staff since 1947. Tax Ruling Aids Drought Hit Farmer Roland V. Wise, Director of Internal Revenue for the Utah district, said today a provision of the Federal income tax may benefit farmers who have been forced to dispose of livestock because of drought. He said the forced sale of live-stock used for draft, breeding or dairy purposes solely on account of drought may be treated as an "involuntary conversion" if the farmer so elects. "This means that any profit on the sale will not be subject to Federal income tax provided the sales proceeds are reinvested in the same kind of livestock within one year following the year of sale." he said. The provision applies only to livestock sold during the year in excess of the number that would normally have been sold in the absence of drought. The rule does not apply to sales of poultry, he explained. Mr. Wise stated that in order to qualify, the livestock sold must be replaced with dairy cows. The period for replace-ment may be extended beyond the end of the year following the year of sale upon application and showing of reasonable cause to the IRS district director's of-fice. It's plum heartbreaking to see a couple of kids, sitting on the front steps, dying of thirst, and no auto to take them a couple of blocks to the drug store. If you don't think they don't know the value of money, offer one a nickel and listen to him howl. We didn't have so much juvenile delinquency 60 years ago, because we didn't have so many juveniles; then too parents knew how to get to the seat of the trouble. oOo To Communists, a wage slave is any American who earns five thousand dollars a year, drives his own car, owns a television set, and has a bathroom. |
