"The figures aren't in yet . so we don't have a breakdown of dollar amounts or people." Mrs. Seman said. "We have "only fragemants right now." Revenues from the parking concession and sales commissions com-missions were still being counted at press time and Festival officials were awaiting word from State Highway authorities on a total attendance figure for "the weekend. Mrs. Peterson did say that, unofficially, $61,000 in gross sales by the artists had been reported during the " check out procedures Sunday. Sun-day. The "honor system" used ' for collecting the 10 percent commissions was praised by State tax officials who were also present at the check out. The tax people revealed that least year they collected taxes on approximately $32,000 in sales. No commission was levied by the Art Festival com- ' mittee last year and artists reported their earnings "directly to the State at a later date. " Although this year's tax c"take" nearly doubled the previous Festival's, much of I the increase was attributed to ; a more honest reporting on the part of the artists. However, this year's gross . sales were generated by 170 artists whereas there were " 235 participants in 1975.

But it goes like crazy preferring to circumvent that charge . by ignoring barricades and by parking in residential areas. "It's amazing what people will do for the price of two beers," Mrs. Seman said. "The public rejected the $1 fee and I don't know why," added Mrs. Peterson. : Despite parking by fee-dogers fee-dogers in residential areas, local residents were "very cooperative," she said. Both Seman rand Peterson predicted the parking situation would be closely examined and alternatives to this year's system would be explored. Mrs. Peterson offered that a shuttle bus fare might be substituted for the parking charge. Refering to the 13 acres of overflow parking space provided at the junction of Highways 224 and 248, Mrs. Seman said, "We would have Seman said, "We would have been dead without it."

Approximately ' 4,000 parking stickers were sold to visitors. More Positive Mrs. Seman said visitor reactions to the quality of the Festival which she received were "more positive than negative."

Seman remarked, "That's what we tried to eliminate," referring to this year's more stringent entrance which 100 requirements applicants failed to meet. "Some of the merchandise was too sophisticated," the tough time selling because our buying public has not been subjected to their type serves on the West Coast and East Coast." Mrs Petrerson's evaluation was similar. "Some people came in the office and raved about the quality while others complained com-plained about the lack of less expensive works," she said. "It's impossible to ppredicf the Utah buying public." In general, the Chamber Director characterized the thousands of people who strolled Main Street as "consistent, mellow and responsive."
