Monday through Friday, 10a.m. -7p.m. Prospector Athletic Club, Prospector Square 649-6670 Snow levels have been high this year around Park City. (At least it didn't discourage the record numbers of tourists reported by the Chamber.) However news has been at a drastic low level. In fact, we're going through a serious news drought so serious, that the president of Utah's Sigma Delta Chi declared Park City a disaster area. Walter Cronkite personally surveyed the damage, flying over the stricken area in a helicopter. The official weather report went something like this: "As you can see, that big storm front over Washington D.C. is still dropping heavy amounts of news, as it has for the past, oh, 83 years. Travel advisories are out right now for any employees of EPA. "Locally, a big high-pressure system over the Utah State Capitol is about to dissipate. That was the front, you remember, that caused news rains all over the state. West Jordan is still recovering from heavy flooding. Funny, though. Only around the Planned Parenthood Center ! "In Park City, they're still waiting for that big news dump. Since January, two big hot-air systems have been lurking over the area, around City Hall and the local school district. These two have produced considerable thunder and lightning, but so far haven't yielded any significant results in news precipitation." In the meantime, we here at the Newspaper are adopting the standard conservation measures. We are saving newspapers (so we can steal stories from the Tribune if we have to.) Staffers are cutting down on the number of times they flush the toilet. (The noise might drown out somebody walking in with a hot news tip. ) We also keep bricks by bur typewriters. (They conserve heat, and can be used to dent buildings, creating a newsworthy "vandalism scare.") All this doesn't mean The Newspaper has nothing to fill its pages. Here are some of the exciting features to come in our paper : High school test scores. Parents, tired of waiting for Junior or Sis to bring the bad news home? Now, you can find out in the paper, right along with the ski scores and city council votes. Legends of American Sewage. Health Director Frank Singleton writes this exciting 13-part series about the development of an important national science. Beginning with the -4runitive biicketndluice systems used by pioneers, Singleton takes Us to the important debut of modern plumbing at the 1904 Olympics. We meet the legendary Dick Dung, who first invented indoor filtration systems. And you will learn about the birth of such important sewage centers as Rose Park, in Salt Lake, and the Love Canal. Thank-you notes. Recently-elected . Commissioner Clif Blonquist wishes to thank every single person in Summit it It's the little things... : Often my out of state friends ask me, - "Why, why do you stay there, in Utah?" For those of us non-native Utahns, the answers seem to be in the little things. Let me tell you a recent true story (or two) and you tell me if you can see this happening in New York or Chicago orL.A. Last Friday evening my (12-year-old-next-week) son and his buddy were ; headed to the movies. I offered to drive. About ten minutes before we were set to leave, he asked for the ' number of the Park City Bus Garage. "What, you don't like my driving?" I joked. "Mom, I just remembered something. some-thing. I need that number." One treads lightly on the moody requests of a 12 (almost) Man-child creature. I got him the number. After several busy signal attempts I told him it was time to go. Unless reaching the bus garage was real important. "It is," he replied. "See, today after our ski day I took the free bus home and, well, I left my ski boots on the bus." I start to take loud deep breaths. Man-child knows this is serious. I try to remind myself how lucky I am to be the mother of a normal healthy, active, Summer '83 LODESTAR ADVERTISING SPACE Call Jan or Bill 649-9014 County who voted for him. A list begins on Page A3. Tough Investigative Journalism. The Newspaper has learned that the Marsac Building supposedly a school for the children of you hard-working taxpayers has instead been appropriated appro-priated as the cushy work quarters for city employees. So what's the deal, huh? Where are the kids supposed to go to school? In other examples of official malfeasance, mal-feasance, City officials are also mysteriously mys-teriously silent about the whereabouts of the missing historic Coalition building. build-ing. They have also refused to take action against the local prankster who sets off a siren every night at 10 o'clock. Profiles of People You've Never Heard About. With its new-found prosperity, Park City has attracted a lot of non-famous people. These residents, who have no significance in sports, politics or the entertainment field, find Park City is an exciting place to buy bread, keep a car in a garage, or grow a lawn. Also, don't forget to read David Hampshire's coverage of the 1983 Osmond Nonentity Ski Race, held every year to benefit the official U.S. Olympic team. The proper grooming for ski slopes. Using a brush and curry comb, you should groom your slopes every few days. Along with the right nutrients, this will ensure a clean, shiny coat, and a happy healthy slope for many years. This is the advice from author Corky Arbogast, who shows those last two stays in the Home probably didn't do much good. , It's 4:30. Do you know where your d.j.'sare? The custom on KPCW Radio has been to sign off at 1 a.m. and resume at 6. But some of Blair Feulner's radio operators are bopping past 1 o'clock. How long? That depends, apparently, on when their stimulants give out. This week, one woozy but mellow d. j. signed off somewhere between 4:30 and 5 a.m. Before you know it, the Volunteer Air Force will be flying the graveyard' shift. Local actor Steve Stanczyk recently returned from an audition marathon in San Francisco. Auditions were held by five companies Yale, Julliard, the American Conservatory Theatre, New York University, and the Utah Shakespearean Festival. The try-outs only asked for two dramatic pieces, but Stanczyk came with a small arsenal of selections. He readied excerpts from "Glass Menagerie," "Richard II," "Taming of the Shrew," "Ionesco," and two different Edmonds one from "Long Day's Journey into Night" and the other, "King Lear." "Whaddyaknow" always strives to keep you updated on the news in TV trivia. So we report with some sadness Steilke.ffli Vefi by Teri Gomes inoughtless, irresponsible child. I try not to focus on the fact that I am still paying off the now-lost boots, which really are quite adult boots for this 5 foot 2 inch Man-child. "I'll call." In even tones I reach a bus person and explain our crisis. Calmly, bus person asks me to describe the boots. "Well, they are grey in color," Silence. "Maybe blue grey. And they're Lange Junior, oh, expletive, I can't remember,". "It's o.k. lady, I've got them right here. I was just leaving so if you want to meet me by Anderson Lumber I'll bring you the kid's boots." I hang up the phone and sneer at Man-child to get in the car and, Oh boy, is he lucky. I hope these are his boots. We drive up to Anderson Lumber and, no city bus. It's all a joke. Then I notice in the darkness, in the snow, a man' standing in front of the lumber building with a pair of boots over shoulder. He approaches the car and laughs as he looks at the Man-child in the front seat with me. "Here you go, kid." "Thanks. -A LOT." For a twelve year old (almost) it is a lot to say. The bus person's name was Steve, that's as much as I know about him. I wished I could give him some handsome reward for his honesty. But the death of one of Lassie's TV masters. Robert Bray, who used to play forest ranger Corey Stuart, succumbed to a heart attack. He was 65. (In dog years, that's 190.) . You mean to say that Summit County is affected by the hackneyed BYU-Utah BYU-Utah rivalry? Apparently so. One of our staffers reported everyone in her house was hypnotized by the game on TV Saturday night. We also ran into a weary county official. He had spent a whole day Monday in grief-stricken Provo and found it tough sledding. We graduated from the University of Utah, but to us, a basketball win only means that the players get more raw meat for their training table, and traffic on the east bench is impossible for a few hours on Saturday night! . . . Chauvinism reared its head in Great Britain this week, according to press reports. In London, a blind 18-year-old girl named Yvonne Brown was told by her boyfriend that their affair was over because he could not cope with her blindness. In despair, she banged her head against a wall and restored her sight, which had been lost to an eye disease when she was 11. The boyfriend happily resumed the romance, though he did confess that he felt real bad about his short-sighted attitude. We are hoping Yvonne might say, "Hey, bite off, big fella ! Now that I can see you, you're not exactly Best of Breed! Think I'll look up Roger Moore." Another press item from Britain is about Princess Michael of Kent. No Michael Learned of "The Waltons" didn't marry royalty. The lady is the former Baroness Marie Christine von Reibnitz of Austria. She married Prince Michael, a royal first cousin, and is known by bis name. (She made the news because she was accosted by a man in a werewolf mask. As if she wasn't confused enough ! ) Okay, one last chorus of "So long, it's been good to know ya" for librarian Judy MacMahon Dworkin. Judy is scheduled to leave Park City this Friday, she told us. We finally figured out what part of the library should be dedicated to her memory. It seems that Judy is especially proud of the two latrines in the building. For one thing, they're equipped with drains on the floor. In a previous library job, Judy had trouble with patrons who did "impolite" things on the floor. " -' The toilets also have blackboards, for the convenience of graffiti writers. (This will probably discourage the practice like social workers handing out spray guns to New York City youth gangs.) Therefore, we recommend that the City Council pass a motion which designates the rooms as the Judy and Ed MacMahon Commemorative Rest-rooms! you'll recall from a few paragraphs back, I'm still paying off the boots. Maybe you can cut this column out Steve, send it to your folks back home and tell them I hope my Man-child turns out as honest. Tell them too, it's those little things that keep many of us here... And what little things do you plan to do in the off season? Craig Badami plans to throw a big party. In Tahoe. At Alpine Meadows. But he's going to wait until July. And he's going to invite the preacher. Last Thursday night on a sleigh ride on the Park Meadows Golf Course with members of the infamous "Wrecking Crew," Badami proposed a toast to his lady friend Susan, (who he had already proposed to. Are you following all this?) After the toast Craig added "and you're all invited to the wedding." Longtime bachelor Badami will wed Susan Bluemel this summer at beautiful Alpine Meadows. ' The little thing on Susan's ring finger is an emerald surrounded by two diamonds. Good Luck! (As Bill Coleman once told me it seems silly to say congratulations, when someone gets married. The getting part takes little effort. It's the staying part that takes all the work.) Look for some little things to strike a vein with you this week... now available |
