Whadda' Know... No Tameracks By THERON H. LUKE Never in our so-called journalistic journal-istic career have we been corrected cor-rected in such a scholarly manner. man-ner. Usually, people write or phone in with 'Look, you dope, why don't 'cha find out what you're talking about, ."or words to that effect and we sit there nursing our bruised feelings and wondering wonder-ing anew why we ever thought reporting would be a nice way to make a living. But not this time. It restores our faith in human nature. It seems in our account of the three Provo boys who recently took an icy bath in Utah lake, we said they pulled their boat into the tameracks and waded ashore. From Rowe A. Clinger came the following: "Now, there are very definitely no Tamaracks growing on Utah lake. The Larix Occidentals, commonly called Tamarack, or Hacmatac or Larch is a deciduous decidu-ous conifer which grows deep in the North woods. I have heard there are some growing in the Uintah mountains, tho' I have not seen one of these trees gttbwing in Utah. "There are many Tamarisk shrubs growing on the shore of Utah lake; the Tamarisk is any shrub or tree of the Genus Tami-rlx Tami-rlx and this Genus is not indigenous indi-genous to America." We're not quite sure, but we think what he means is... there ain't no tameracks. publican chairman, hut took no action when it was learned Smith has tailed a state central committee com-mittee meeting for Jan. 9.
