The girls came a long way in their season. The crowd soon changed their name from the panthers to the Mighty Midgets because the size of the girls on the team was about half of the team they were up against. They didn't let their size get in the way of giving every team they played a fight as they slugged the ball, flew around the bases and fielded like hotshots! Members of the team are, back, left to right: Coaches Amy and Jess Christen, Mari Williamson, Lisa Priest, Chelsea Chel-sea Dodson, Erin Michaels, Asst.

Mr. Palmer has been coming to the Folkfest for ten years to do the program. He loves it. This year he came all the way from Grants, New Mexico for the event. He has just bought three radio stations there, but he said that he wouldn't miss the dance festival in Springville. Massasoit is an appropriate gift for the visitors because of the connection with the Indian welcoming the Pilgrims and Springville welcoming the visitors to our country and to our city. And the statue was sculpted by Springville sculptor Cyrus Dallin. Shown presenting the gift to Mr. Palmer Palm-er is Teddy Anderson and others members of the board.

Although the FCC does not have jurisdiction over the content of internet pages nor over the content of e-mail sent over the Internet, the site provides a starting start-ing point for parents investigating software programs that provide filtering capabilities. The site also includes a section sec-tion explaining the TV ratings system and the V-chip. With the V-chip, parents can use . the new TV ratings system that is in place to filter out what they don't want their kids to watch and then program the chip to block them. Chairman Kennard noted that "helping parents use technology in the home is only one part of using it responsibly.
