Hanly, a 33-year-old U of U geneticist, uses up to 30,000 fruit flies a day in his research on the causes of birth defects. He keeps the rapidly rap-idly growing swarm- -up to 150,-000 150,-000 new flies a week in milk bottles. The study on fruit fly mutations muta-tions has involved the precise dissection of an abnormal eye measuring 11000 of an inch-about inch-about the width of a human hair. Impossible as it may seem the young scientist also separates the bristles (110,000 of an inch in length) from a normal fly eve1 using watchmaker's forcepts under un-der a 400-power microscope. The hair is invisible to the naked eye. The research is giving Dr. Hanly answers to man's genetic makeup and may result in the control of birth defects such as muscular dystrophy and mental retardation. He says it may someday be possible to correct inherent birth defects by giving expectant mothers moth-ers chemical injections which will change the genetic components of the offspring. Conditions of non-inherited non-inherited defects ( gene accidents during embryonic development) could also be corrected with chemicals, chem-icals, he says, if detected before or shortly after birth. Dr. Hanly's research goal is to find out which chemicals are involved in-volved in the mutant cell production. s- c N 77 r s?z:. V If "-"Kx " ' tf A 'f , r v.-., y J 'mt yj 'A'y ' 1 ...

Movieland, the world's largest wax museum, celebrates its' sixth anniversary this May and has enthralled its millions of visitors. Over 100 of the greatest stars are depicted in their most memorable roles on elaborate elab-orate sets. The stars themselves are frequent visitors to Movieland, where color and fun are blended with the kaleidoscope kalei-doscope of Hollywood history. Use of animation, special effects and a few "surprises" create an aura of excitement. Movielan,d was the first of three attractions, all inBuena Park, created by Allen Parkinson. The Palace of Living Art (included in admission to Movieland) brings great art masterpieces "to life" in magri'icent settings. At Japan-nese Japan-nese Village and Deer Park, a short distance away, tourists tour-ists feed and pet the herds of gentle deer and marvel at the beauty of centuries-old Japan. All three Parkinson attractions are located just a few miles from Disneyland in the recreation capitol of the world. Y Phil L. Hansen I have decided to run for the United States SENATE. I seek this high office because I am convinced that the people of the State of Utah nvist join with all other concerned and committed com-mitted citizens throughout the United States in their collective attempt to solve the great problems prob-lems of out time. Many people share my nag-gingly nag-gingly pervasive feeling that America is not living up to her expectations. America appears to doubt her capacity to live in a climate of change without being forced to rely on the billy club at home and the bayonet abroad to solve her problems. I believe' America has a greater heritage than that. "Our young people should not feel constrained to avoid the draft by fleeing the country or to show contempt for their nation na-tion by burning their draft cards. Neither should any American believe be-lieve he must resort to violence in the streets or barricade to redress his grievances. It is high time we Americans stop shielding our consciences and honor under a bewildering variety oi schemes which are only half-hearted attempts to solve our excruciatingly real problems. In Vietmanover 500,000 Americans Amer-icans fight a war that drains the physical and spiritual resources of this nation.

We must be determined to see that the South Vietnamese themselves play a greater and more effective role in preserving their own freedom and achieving justice in their own land. While we cannot and will not accept a fake peace or a false solution that compromises the interest of the United States, we cannot permit per-mit rigid and inflexible policies to jeopardize our leadership of the free world. ( The tragic assassinations of Dallas and Memphis are all too symptomatic of the hatreds and conflicts that divide Americans. Handouts and antiquated welfare programs will no longer suffice for solid employment opportunities opportuni-ties in alleviating the degradation and misery of mindless poverty. We must enrich our urban environment en-vironment in this country, but we also must enrich our rural environment by providing our citizens cit-izens on our farms and in small communities with the opportunity to remain in their homes and still be in the mainstream of American Ameri-can life. The United States Senate is our most effective vote for the future fu-ture of our nation. We simply cannot afford to use one of our Senate seats for carping criticism criti-cism and the protection of selfish interest. The quest for progress will undoubtedly require commitment commit-ment and sacrifice, but I believe that Utah wants to participate in that quest for progress. I shall dedicate my candidacy toward that end and lock horns with anyone any-one who gets in our way. 3 million Travelers can't be wrong.

Ceremonies were in Park City's C'est Bon Hotel in conjunction con-junction with the federation's 3-day 3-day annual convention. Gordon Harmston, recently appointed ap-pointed director of the Utah Department De-partment of Natural Resources, presented the awards on behalf of Governor Calvin Rampton who was out of state. Dr. Lamb, Salt Lake City medical med-ical doctor, was cited for his years of service in teaching conservation con-servation principles and his work in the Sierra Club, Audubon Society, and other organizations promoting wise use of natural resources. He has been heading a campaign to prevent loss of stream-land values along Mill Creek in Salt Lake City. Mill Creek is ear-marked for possible channel changes under proposed flood control projects. Other conservationists receiv ing awards were: sou, Keith Hoi man, Payson; water, Jay Gingham, Salt Lake City; forests, D.M. Gaufin, Ogden; youth, Salt Lake City Youth Corps; ; education, educa-tion, Dick and Creetie Kerr, Orem; legislation, Senator Kend-rick Kend-rick Harward, Richfield; communications, comm-unications, Donald Brooks, Salt Lake City, and organization, Vernal Ver-nal Rod and Gun Club. We congratulate them for their interest and dedication in preserving our outdoor future, Harmston said. 'If we can do one thing to preserve a trout stream or provide more utilization utili-zation of our Utah resources, we should do it. I also pledge myself my-self in my new office as director direc-tor of the Department of Natural Resources to do this." Harms-ton Harms-ton told some 150 persons at the noon banquet. Representing the Sears-Roebuck Foundation, who make the funds possible to state wildlife federations throughout the United States was S.C. Johnson. Also present were Bill Winter, president, pres-ident, National Wildlife Federation, Federa-tion, Bill Reavely, western representative rep-resentative for the NWF, and Herb Smart, national vice president.
