Show U. of U. researcher seeks old newspaper copies A representative of the Utah Newspaper Projects at the University Universi-ty of Utah will be visiting the local area this week to search out old copies of newspapers published in the area. During visits around the state over the next months, Yvonne Stroup, head librarian for the project from the University's Marriott Library, will go through established newspaper files at local community libraries, colleges, newspaper offices and museums. However, Stroup says many of the official files are "amazingly in-. complete." So while she is in various localities, Stroup hopes to also contact individuals who know of copies of old newspapers that have been stored in basements, attics, offices and churches. "We're hoping the people of the state will help us fill in the gaps that exist in the official collections. Many times people don't realize that they have valuable documents hidden away," says Stroup. "Finding some of these missing issues would enhance our project pro-ject significantly." The Utah Newspaper Project is a three-stage effort to identify and locate Utah newspapers, including defunct publications, and help make the newspapers available to researchers and the public. During the first stage, the library compiled a list of titles of as many Utah newspapers as it could locate.

Also during the first stage, the library worked to increase general awareness of Utah newspapers. A conference con-ference titled "Utah Newspapers: Traces of Her Past" was held in November 1983. The first stage culminated with publication of a book containing conference proceedings and a list of the 900 newspaper titles. In the project's second stage, now underway, the goal is to find out which issues of these newspapers are still in existence and where copies are located. Then the project will establish a bibliographic record in the Marriott library for anyone to use. In the third stage, there will be an effort to microfilm as many newspaper issues as possible for permanent per-manent preservation. Old newspapers art valuable to historians, genealogists and other researchers. Dr. Robert P. Holley, Marriott Library assistant director for technical services and Utah Newspaper Project director, says the library has received enormous response to the project since its beginning in 1983. .

To help carry out this program, four instructors of the Vernal Middle School were trained at a workshop at Weber State College in Ogden. The three day workshop started July 29 and schooled instructors on methods to teach the "Skills For Adolescence" program to youth in the Vernal Middle School. Local teachers attending the workshop included Dean Blair, counselor; Ginger LeFever, science instructor; Tracy Mich, science instructor; in-structor; and Deanna Nelson, Core instructor. "Most teachable, valuable, well thought out program I've ever seen. I'm so excited that I couldn't talk about anything else," said LeFever. The skills acquired in the program will help students, starting in the sixth grade, cope with today's problems; pro-blems; communication with parents, low self-esteem, peer pressure, decision deci-sion and other skills. By acquiring these skills, Vernal's youth will be able to leave behind the desire for drug and alcohol dependence. "Skills For Adolescence" is designed design-ed to help our community deal with the lack of communication between youths and parents; the key to success suc-cess will be parent involvement with the program. The program consists of many units and activities and it is a program of intervention not lecture. lec-ture. Sixth grade students taking the "Skills For Adolescence" course will receive a book developed specifically for the program that parallels the units in the teachers' manual. This book was written by such ' noted figures as comedian Bill Cosby, prize winning youth writer Peggy Mann, psychologist Barbara Varenhorst and business leader W. Clement Stone.

"Skills For' Adolescence" has been developed at a time when there is a great concern not only about the well-being well-being of young people but also about our schools. The new program responds to both concerns. There is a special need for the young people of Vernal to become involved with this :new program. . "For young people the predictable challenges of growing up in a more and more complex and changing society are compounded by the needs and problems of this very special time of life," said William Jolley, public relations member of the Vernal Ver-nal Lions Club.
