Show Four Scouters leave for annual World Scout Jamboree in Japan Three young men and one leader will leave this week for Japan, where they will participate par-ticipate in the 13th World Scout Jamboree near Tokyo. They are Steven Bartholomew, son of Mr. and Mrs. Elden Bartholomew; Brent Sumsion, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dick Sumsion, and Cecil J. Zimmerman, all of Springville; and Richard M. Edmunds, son of Dr. and Mrs. P. K. Edmunds of Mapleton. The four will be part of a 28-member 28-member delegation from the Utah National Parks Council BSA who will attend the international in-ternational event. Representatives Represen-tatives from 98 free nations of the world are expected to participate par-ticipate in the Jamboree. The local men will be part of Jamboree Troop 1232, leaving for Japan on Friday. They will spend eight days touring Kyoto and Tokyo and surrounding Timber inventory being made of Uinta Forest The Intermountain Region timber inventory crew is completing an inventory of the timber resources on the Uinta National Forest this summer, according to Forester Supervisor Super-visor C. S. Thornock. This , specially trained crew, consisting con-sisting of 12 men, makes periodic surveys and resurveys of the timber and tree production produc-tion areas within the four-state region of Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Nevada. Inventory plots are randomly selected and measured throughout the timbered portions por-tions of the National Forest to gather data needed to formulate accurate and realistic timber management plans. Number and size of trees by species, amount of defect, steepness of slope, presence of harmful insects in-sects and disease, and many other important facts are collected and recorded on IBM cards for each plot. Many of the plots are in remote sections of the Forest which require long hours of walking in mountainous terrain. Crew members must be in excellent ex-cellent physical condition to be able to perform this work for an entire field season. Most of the men are veterans of several years' experience in this work, and are experts in the use of maps, aerial photos, and in pinpointing exact locations of timber types and survey plots. When the information for the entire Forest has been collected, it is programmed and run through computers in the U.S. Forest Service Regional Office at Ogden. Data is quickly summarized and arranged in usable order by this means. Total volumes of timber are calculated, and those areas are identified on which timber harvest must be modified or eliminated. The Ranger District Multiple Use Plans are the basis for deciding how each tract of National Forest land will be managed. After all multiple use coordinating decisions have been carefully reviewed and approved, a . timber management plan is developed which states how the timber resource and timber lands will be manged. A total annual allowable cut is established by each species. Lands which must receive special treatment for protection against erosion or to enhance esthetics, recreation, fish and wildlife, watershed, livestock forage, or other values are shown, and the special measures are spelled out. Requirements for regenerating a new stand of trees are listed, access roads, to reach the timber are planned, and various social and economic factors are considered and incorporated in the final plan. Mr. Thornock explains that even after all this has been ' done, the plan is dynamic and will need to be revised periodically to meet changing conditions and the needs of people. 34 Mivv qou lQex DRUG areas before arriving at the Jamboree site August 2.

According to the report, there were 6,417 Federal, state, and local workers employed in Utah County during October, 1970. This compares with 4,444 government employees stationed within the county ten years earlier in October, 1960. The Foundation study shows that government employment comprises 16.4 percent of the total nonagricultural workforce of Utah County and is equal to 4.7 percent of the total population of the county. For the state as a whole, government employment makes up about 27.5 percent of the nonagricultural workforce and 9.5 percent of the total population. Utah ranks first among the contiguous forty-eight states and is second among all fifty states of the nation in the percentage of its population employed by government units. In October, 1970, the proportion of total population in Utah employed by government was half again as high as the national average. Hie major reasons for the abnormally high percentage of government employment in Utah, according to the report, are the large proportion of Federal employment in the state and the higher than average iqWi doctor...

Utah is above the U. S. average in the proportion of state and local employment for education, highways, and natural resources. For most of the other functions of government, govern-ment, however, such as hospitals, welfare, police, fire protection, sanitation, etc., Utah is well below the national average in the percentage of state and local employees. As an example, Utah is about 24 percent below the national average in the ratio of police employees to total population. During October, 1970, there were 17 police employees per 10,000 population, compaed with 22 per 10,000 for the nation as a whole. Utah is even further below the U. S. average in the proportion of welfare employees. There were 5.9 welfare employees per 10,000 population in Utah, compared with a ratio of 12.3 welfare employees per 10,000 population throughout the nation. Government employment in Utah has multiplied about four and a half times over the past thirty years, according to the Foundation report. This compares com-pares with an increase of only two and a half times in total nonagricultural employment during this same period of time. Foundation analysts note that a major factor in the rapid growth of government in Utah over the past three decades has been the establishment and expansion of Federal defense installations during World War II, the Korean War, and the Viet Nam War. A Viet Nam employment em-ployment peak was reached in July, 1967, when there were 45,650 Federal civilian employees em-ployees in Utah. Since that time, Federal employment in the state has declined, and in October, 1970, stood approximately 6,400 below the 1967 peak. Black bears may live as long as 30 years in the wild.

During the encampment, cadets become familiar with the life and activities on Air Force Third in series of pre-school hearing articles Nebo School District Pre-School Hearing Survey presents a series of Informative Articles on hearing. This weeks article is entitled, "The Audiogram and the Audiologist". When your child's hearing is tested, the audiologist will present sounds at different frequencies ranging from low to high, and of varying degrees of loudness. On a chart called an audiogram will be indicated the level of loudness at which your child can hear each of these sounds. This audiogram will give you a picture of what your child can or cannot hear, but it does not give a complete or absolute picture. It must be carefully interpreted by the audiologist, or the child's doctor. Evaluating the audiogram is something that only trained and experienced people can be expected ex-pected to do. To predict what a child's audiogram will mean to him takes more than the knowledge of what a certain loss of volume at certain frequencies means, as far as understanding speech is concerned. It takes thorough knowledge of children and the experience of having seen hundreds of audiograms. It involves also the experience and opportunity of following these children and the use to which each one has been able to put his hearing. All this knowledge and experience enable an audiologist or teacher to predict, within reasonable limits, what the audiogram means to your son or daughter. All parents of children two and one-half to five years of age are reminded to bring their children into Jefferson School, 11 East 800 South between the hours of 8:00 and 12:00 and 1:00 and 4:00 for a hearing evaluation.
