Box 3121 Park City Utah 84060 (801)649-1602 Gym floor to be wooden llnaDnIl mes And the winner is wood. After a lengthy debate Tuesday evening, the Park City Board of Education voted 3-2 to defeat a proposal to install a synthetic surface on the gym floor at the new Treasure Mountain Middle School. The vote reaffirmed the decision made by the board last spring to install a wood floor in the gym. Two weeks ago, the board was approached by a group of middle school teachers asking that a synthetic surface be considered for the gym. They argued that it would allow a greater variety vari-ety of activities, would be damaged less easily, and would result in fewer injuries. injur-ies. Architect Keith Stepan was asked by the board to estimate the additional cost of installing a synthetic surface. Figures presented by Stepan Step-an at Tuesday's board meeting meet-ing indicated that a synthetic floor would cost the district an additional $20,000 to $40,000. He said that wood floors are much more widespread wide-spread in Utah than synthetics, synthe-tics, and that some schools with synthetic floors are not Historical Society to meet The Park City Historical Society will meet Thursday night, with wine and cheese galore and a list of challenging tasks to handle. The session is scheduled for 7 p.m. at St. Mary's Hall, according to secretary Judy MacMahon. Committees will be set up, she said, to handle a variety of jobs, including: raising money; collecting Park City historical material, (photographs, notes, etc.); arranging exhibits and displays for the Miner's Hospital ; and planning the society's role in the dedication of the refurbished hospital. The society's officers are Carroll Horton, president; Mel Armstrong, vice-president; and Bonnie Perretti, treasurer. MacMahon said its present membership totals 53 people. happy with them. "Alta, Bingham, Woods Cross, Hillcrest ... all of these floors, from the district administrators' viewpoint, would not be repeated," Stepan said. "The only one we have a lot of positive feedback (from) is Snow College." School Superintendent Richard Goodworth added that the synthetic surface at the Wasatch Middle School also has not been well received. However, board members Ralph Hale and Nancy McComb defended the proposal pro-posal to install a synthetic surface. "I put great stock on the people who've got to work on it," Hale said. He argued that a synthetic surface would require less maintenance, mainte-nance, would be more versatile, versa-tile, and would absorb more sound. High School Principal Jack Dozier disagreed. "That stuff is perverse," he said. "You never quite know how it's going to react." Hale's motion to install a synthetic surface was seconded sec-onded by McComb. However, How-ever, the other board members mem-bers voted against it.

Students named to the society are seniors Robert Black-bourn, Black-bourn, Kimberly Koch and Denise White; junior Amy Finegan; and sophomores Edward Callan, Amy Irvine and JillSchettler. According to high school counselor Kent Larsen, each of the students achieved a grade-point average of 3.7 or higher last semester. Each student also received a favorable recommendation from faculty members based on character, leadership and service. Larsen said membership in the society is limited to sophomores, juniors and seniors. Tuesday's ceremony included a welcome by Larsen, a brief history of the society by Hal Smith, a candle ceremony, and a presentation of pins by School Board President Nancy McComb. Dozier named to post Park City High School Principal Jack Dozier has been chosen to represent Region 11 on the Utah High School Activities Ac-tivities Association board of managers. Dozier's election to the post came at a recent meeting of the Region 11 board of managers, which represents 13 1A high schools in Northern Utah. The Park City Board of Education voted unanimously on Tuesday to endorse the move. He will join voting representatives from 12 other regions on the statewide body. Calendar adopted The school calendar for the 1982-83 year was adopted Tuesday by the Park City Board of Education. The calendar, which is similar to that recommended by the Park City Education Association, calls for classes to begin Aug. 27 and end June 1. It includes student holidays for Labor Day (Sept. 6), the Utah Education Association convention (Oct. 7 and 8), Thanksgiving (Nov. 25 and 26), Christmas (Dec. 23 to Jan. 2), Presidents Day (Feb. 21), Spring Break (March 28 to April 1), and Memorial Day (May 30). In a break with tradition (and the practice followed by Utah's 39 other school districts), the board voted not to declare a Harvest Day holiday during the deer hunt. Teachers' in-service training days will be established following discussions between faculty and administration. Date change defeated A proposal to move school board meetings from Tuesday to Monday nights was defeated by a 3-2 vote Tuesday. In calling for a motion to change the meeting dates effective effec-tive July 1, Board President Nancy McComb argued that it would allow the local newspapers to give better coverage to board meetings. Newspaper Editor David Hampshire pointed out that Tuesday evenings are very close to deadlines for both Park City weeklies, making comprehensive coverage of board meetings very difficult. However, Board Vice President Gary Avise argued that he needed the extra day to prepare for the meetings. Board member Rand Clark joined McComb in voting for the change. However, Avise, Gene Lambert and Ralph Hale all voted against the motion. ' J ' 11 Building changes please historic board For the second time this year, a developer is styling a major project to match the heritage of Main Street. And the Historic District Commission Com-mission is happy about it. Member Nina Macheel said new plans for the Lowell Brown Building, proposed for 411 Main Street, have been reduced from 45 feet and four stories to 35 feet and three stories. This follows the lead of developer Mike Doilney's upper-street project, where roof heights are scaled lower to meet historic patterns. Macheel said the Brown project also made other changes in response to the Historic Commission. A pyramid-shaped skylight was eliminated, and chrome elements of the facade were replaced by burnished brass. A rear elevation eliminated plate glass that had brought questions from the panel. "The design is still postmodern, post-modern, but it's an immeasurable im-measurable improvement," said Macheel.
