The Tooth Fairy, alais Tammy Pitt, was also a number one favorite in the dental health program cast. , ' -b . ?k.r "fcVw Jvi it i , ' I 4 It. 1 Dudley, a green dragon with lots of teeth, and his friends the Ewoks and the Tooth Fairy make up a cast that teach dental health to children in an unusual way. Volunteers from Uintah Basin Association of Government, Vista and Young Volunteers in ACTION, have produced a play, puppet theater and a number of displays that are used us-ed as tools for teaching proper brushing and dental care. 1 Their first presentations in Uintah County were given at the Uintah Learning Center Tuesday and Wednesday. The students at the Center were excited with the program pro-gram and enthusiastically participated par-ticipated in a special puppet segment of the show. With the aid of a grant, posters, dental health kits and the basic material were purchased for the presentation. The volunteers created the costumes, made hundreds of little tooth pillows, wrote the script for the play and continue to give their time to travel and present the dental health program. The American Dental association provided handouts, posters and several video taped cartoons teaching proper brushing and flossing floss-ing techniques which are used in the presentation. Under the direction of Lori Brum- mond of UBAG and Tammy Pitt who is in charge of the Vista program; Robin King as Dudley the Dragon, Jolene Daniels and Sarah Allen as Ewoks, Tammy Pitt as the Tooth Fairy, and Debra Horrocks stage hand and wardrobe mistress, a drama of a dragon learning to care for his teeth leads to a lesson for the audience. Vista volunteer, Vickie Bentz who usually plays one of the Ewoks, was unavailable for this week's presentation. - The students at the Learning Center were so excited by the program, pro-gram, they had to be admonished by Director, Shirley Wilkins, to wait until un-til they got home from school to try ; out their dragon shaped tooth "brushes, dental floss and disclosure tablets given to them by the UBAG group. . Young Volunteeers in ACTION take an active part in the community which affords them the opportunity to learn skills and become aquainted with professions they may choose as a career. The volunteers will present their dental health program to any club, organizaiton or school group, in Duchesne, Daggett and Uintah counties, coun-ties, free of charge. They also have similar programs in nutrition, prevention of child abuse and abduction abduc-tion and alcohol and drug abuse. Call 722-4518 for more information.

The students are asked to submit a . design depicting the "Energize me" idea before the March 8 deadline. They are receiving more encouragement encourage-ment by the offer of cash prizes to the winners of $15, $10 and $5. The winners win-ners will also receive tickets for the 4th of July banquet in Naples. Dr. Murphy of Naples Elementary said the judging of the entries will be done by the city who have given the students a free license on imagination imagina-tion for the logos, and asked only that they stay with the theme. A new art program at Naples called call-ed "You too can Draw", will be further fur-ther enhanced by the opportunity to enter the logo design contest, Dr. Murphy added. All of the students at the school are eligible to enter the competiton. A series of activities for Indian Day at West Junior High were climaxed Friday with a program featuring students from the school and others from the community.
