Kensington Ave. (1500 South) SLC, Utah 84115 487-2021 Board adopts V.O. education program The Park City Board of Education Tuesday agreed to launch a veneral disease education program this fall in the sixth through twelfth grades. The decision came in response to a plea from a delegation of officials and board members of the Summit Sum-mit County Health Department. Depart-ment. Nancy Chartier, head nurse with the health department, depart-ment, told school board members at its regular meeting Tueaday that education edu-cation in the veneral diseases dis-eases is lacking in the Park City schools, and that statistics statist-ics show a need for it. "It's a problem right now. Let's deal with it," she said. Chartier told the board that 14 ninth graders were cultured for'gonorrhea during dur-ing the 1981-82 school year. Out of the 14, two boys and one girl were diagnosed as having the disease. She noted that men can show symptoms of gonorrhea within three days of contact, while there are no outward symptoms in women. If the disease is not discovered and treated, she said, girls may be sterile by their senior year. Only three of the 14 being cultured could define what a veneral disease dis-ease is, she said. Seventeen more students in tenth through twelfth grades were cultured, and "none realized they might have a problem," Chartier said. She added that boys treated for gonorrhea often will refuse to name girls with whom they have been in sexual contact, while girls are more willing to identify contacts. "They need to know the symptoms of veneral disease if they are sexually active," Chartier said. Statistics will show a rise in reported cases of veneral disease as education on the subject increases and people become knowledgeable on the symptoms and treatment. treat-ment. Because of the high incidence of gonorrhea in ninth graders, she recommended recom-mended initiating the education educa-tion program in the middle school, starting with the sixth grade. A manual on the teaching of veneral disease education for young teenagers has been developed by the state Board of Education and Department Depart-ment of Health. Chartier urged the Park City board to adopt the use of this manual along with a training program, pro-gram, conducted by professionals, profess-ionals, for middle school teachers. The state-planned program already has been initiated in the North and Should school pay for sewer connections? The Park City School District is balking at the payment of some $60,000 in sewer connection fees for the new middle school, but in the meantime is asking that the connections be completed with the legal hassle left for later. Dr. Richard Goodworth, school superintendent, told the Board of Education Tuesday that the conflict with the Snyderville Basin Sewer Improvement District (SID) has been going on for a year. He said the SID, a taxing entity, has traditionally done hook-ups for new schools in the school district, also a taxing entity, at no charge. When hook-ups were requested for the new $6 million middle school, the district asked for some $60,000 in fees, but agreed to reduce the fees if the district installed water-saving Class II toilets. It was determined by architects ar-chitects that the Class II toilets would cost an additional ad-ditional $50,000 to install, Goodworth said. A legal ruling from the state Board of Education and from Oscar McConkie Jr., school board attorney, stated that school districts cannot be taxed by other taxing entities, but can be charged for services. The question remains, Goodworth Goodwor-th said, whether the hook-up charge is a tax or payment for a service. He noted that the school district admits its liability for such costs as excavation ex-cavation and installation of sewer pipe. In the meantime, the new school, scheduled to open in less than two months, is still without water. Goodworth said a representative of the school district will attend the next SID meeting to request the hook-ups immediately.

Chartier added that the veneral disease education program emplasizes to the students that state law protects confidentiality that even a 12-year-old can seek treatment without having hav-ing parents informed. School Board President Nancy McComb said, "The board was not aware of the magnitude of the problem. We need a mass education program right now." It's the board's desire, she concluded, that the education educa-tion program be implemented implement-ed in the sixth through twelfth grades. Teri Gomes, county health board member, said she would arrange for state personnel to be present at the school board's next meeting to describe details of the program. The state teaching manual also will be made available to board members before that meeting. meet-ing. In another matter Tuesday, Tues-day, a Park City resident who applied recently for a teaching position questioned the school board's practices in seeking applications, setting set-ting up interviews and hiring new teachers. Carol Calder asked the board, "Is the district seeking seek-ing teachers who are the most qualified or the least expensive?" Calder said she applied for both a kindergarten and second grade teaching posi tion, citing 12 years of experience, a masters degree de-gree in special education and triple state certification. She said a person of less experience exper-ience was hired for the second grade position, while she was not even called for an interview. McComb stated, "The board decided last year that we wanted quality over cost." She explained that hiring is done by schooj principals, but that the school board has the option of changing that procedure. McComb recommended a board review of the list of all applicants for each teaching position, and asked Superintendent Superin-tendent Richard Goodworth to report back on interview and hiring procedures. 0mk Whadd'ya Know? by Rick Brough Park City 's gone to the trolls ! At least, that's the impression Salt Lakers are getting, with a radio ad campaign that uses a fairy-land theme to convey our local charms. The spots were conceived by brain-stormers brain-stormers at the Great Ideas ad agency, using various local talents, and have been heard on radio stations such as KSL, KRGO, KCPX, andKALL. The usual format of these ads is that some storybook character calls up the local travel agency, seeking a respite from wicked witches wit-ches and spells, and learns about the great escape in Park City. In the first spot, for instance, the Three Wishes Agency gets a call from Cinderella (the voice of Teri Gomes) who says that married life isn't much fun when your bed-mate bed-mate is a toad. Cindy apologizes, "I hate to keep being a pain in the ashes." (Once only God and Teri understood that joke. Now only Teri understands it.) She gets a sales pitch from the Fairy Godmother, impersonated by Steve Phillips with an accent reminiscent of "Bowzer" from the group Sha Na Na. In the second spot, the salesman is the Wizard, at the Oz travel agency (played by Don Gomes). The customer is the Scarecrow, who's got enough brains to come in out of the sun, he says, and wants a vacation spot that "won't knock the stuffings out of your budget." Steve Phillips' hyuk-hyuk performance as the Scarecrow was said to be a big hit down at the ChamberBureau. All the spots use the dulcet tones of Blair Feulner, who assures the audience that "Park City is magical." New radio spots are being prepared at Great Ideas (where the motto this week is, "When resolved, ponder: when in trouble, delegate; when in doubt, mumble." Ideas magnate Terry Hogan and his staff have given us a sneak preview of the new ads. One features a conversation between Prince Charming and Sleazy. (Not Sneezy, the dwarf says. "You haven't seen me lately.") In the other ad, the desperate vacationer is Gretel (of Hansel and Gretel fame) who encountered en-countered a real bummer on her previous forest excursion. "Last time we. . .nearly burned our brownies. That wicked old gal's idea of having us over for dinner was really having us over for dinner. . .What we want is modern lodging, maybe some evening fun, and fine dining where we aren't the entree. And we don't want to use all our crumbs to get there. . ." Maybe next year, they could use a "Rocky Horror" theme, with Brad and Janet seeking a honeymoon spot that offers non-kinky fun ! Debby Boone didn't light up anyone's life with her musical "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers", which closed on Broadway after poor reviews. One critic wrote that the musical production made him yearn again for Donny Osmond in "Little Johnny Jones". If somebody was looking for tax write-offs, like the hero of Mel Brooks' "The Producers", maybe this kind of show would have potential. Future Broadway flops could include Erik Estrada and Suzanne Somers in "Streetcar Named Desire", Ted Knight in "Death of a Salesman", and a version of "Waiting for Godot" with Herve Villechaize and Chuck Connors. Bad reviews are also coming out locally namely, for the movies at Holiday Village Cinemas that can't be heard thanks to the eternal caterwauling of infants. It's not the cinema's fault in Utah, it is considered proper to take babies everywhere, from the supermarket to the opera. It doesn't occur to parents that their infants might not comprehend com-prehend the subtleties of "Blade Runner", or that "Friday the 13th, Part II" isn't exactly great family entertainment. A documentary shown at this winter's Park City film festival has incited a small controversy in Washington. According to a Knight-Ridder news report, the producer-director producer-director of the film "In Our Water", Meg Switzgable, said a Republican senator's office of-fice stopped a showing of the film at a fund-raising fund-raising event this July. The movie is about the efforts of a New Jersey citizen to get government help after he discovered a toxic waste dump was contaminating con-taminating his well. His tap water disintegrated disin-tegrated spaghetti noodles and ate holes in his laundry. Aides to Senator John Chafee (R-R.I.) were reportedly angry at the film because it gave the impression Chafee and his senate Environmental Committee were callous to the man's problem. Switzgable said such groups as the Sierra Club and Audubon Society were told that Chafee would weaken his support of clean-water legislation if the movie was shown at the fund-raiser. However, a coordinator at the event said the film was dropped because of time limitations. . . FOR THOSE IN UTAH MEDIA WHO CARE: Karl Idsvoog, the head of investigative in-vestigative reporting at KUTV, has won a Nieman Fellowship from Harvard University. Univer-sity. The snoopy scribe will study corporate law, business, and political science. Channel 2's investigative unit endeared itself to Summit County government recently with its reports on the troubles of the Coalville hospital. Don't be satisfied with cocaine substitutes, said the Food and Drug Administration this week. They aren't safe either. The FDA said three deaths have resulted from the use of gimmick powder substitutes that go under such names as Toot, Florida Snow, Super-caine, Super-caine, Ultracaine, and Superior-Caine. The drugs, made with local anesthetics, can cause low blood pressure, reduce heart muscle strength, and collapse blood vessels. (If the substitutes do that, what's the effect of the real McCoy?) The recent production of "Cabaret" may have been considered daring, but we've got nothing on the community of Mammoth Lakes, California. During their Fourth of July festivities, the locals held a "wet T-shirts, T-shirts, without T-shirts" contest. According to the local newspaper, "The Review", a large group of lovelies stripped to the waist in the Safeway parking lot. Police had to look away since their tiny jail couldn't hold all the offenders. (How about a "booby hatch", the paper suggested.) There were protests, of course. In a letter to the editor, a local feminist called the event pathetic and exploitative. "The female participants par-ticipants are forfeiting their identity and reducing their worth to a part of their anatomy," she wrote. We agree with the Review that some kind of equal-time event should be scheduled for the males. Maybe a Bare-Buns Bonanza, or a Beaux Arts Balls Ball. The T-shirt contest wasn't the only controversy, con-troversy, apparently. Noted the paper's gossip column, "Some folks criticized the Donner Party float for being in poor taste, but all in all things went well .
