Show Impact of Olympics Concerns Regional Forester Vern Hamre Regional Forester VernHamre Ogden, Utah, today expressed concern about some significant aspects of the possible selection of Salt Lake City arid the Wasatch Front area for the 1976 Winter Olympic Games. He pointed out that a number of the Olympic activities would undoubtedly be carried out on National Forest lands in the vicinity of Salt Lake City, if the local propents' proposal pro-posal is accepted by the International Inter-national Olympic Committee. He stressed the need for considerable consider-able additional information and extensive environmental studies to determine the full impact that the Olympics would create in the Wasatch Front area, before any "Irreversible actions are planned or taken there. . . "In view of the urgent need for such information if the Salt .Lake City propsal is accepted, I believe it would be essential that a site eveluation committee be established promptly, for at least the downhill ski events," Mr. Hamre said. "Such a committee com-mittee should include representatives represen-tatives of the Forest Service, the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Re-sources, the Utah Ski Association, Associa-tion, the Mayor of Salt Lake City, and the local Olympic Committee. "We are encouraged by the position taken by Salt Lakj City proponents that n. additional -facilities for the Olympics should be built in the canyons and that the Games should be scaled down in size and returned to amateur competition said Mr. Hamre. "However, even without construction con-struction of additional major facilities in the canyons, the environmental impacts created by an event such as the Olympics could be immense. Among the major problems involved is providing pro-viding safe and adequate public transportation into narrow canyons can-yons such as Little Cottonwood Canyon. Predicted use in this area, even without the Olym-ics, Olym-ics, may already surpass what the environment can tolerate unless un-less strict limitations or controls con-trols are initiated. Based on past records, unrestrictedatten-dance unrestrictedatten-dance at the games could be expected to exceed a hundred thousand people at one time." "The possibility of avalanches in Little Cottonwood disrupting the tight schedules for Olympic downhill ski events, along with possible hazards to the contestants contes-tants and spectators, also should not be overlooked." Hamro continued. con-tinued. "Pollution of and damage to Salt Lake City's watersheds nun nAnniklA nirrnifini'i til- cue uiuci yuaaujie Bigiuiitdiu impacts which would need to be avoided.' .

Communication Needed For Understanding If you are a typical boss, you probably are more aware of the needs and wants of your superiors than of your employees. employ-ees. And if you are a father, chances are you know more about the outsiders who influence your family than you do about your own children. It's all part of a phenomenon related to "Role-taking and Power in Social Psychology" which is the subject of January's Research Paper of the Month" lecture at Brigham Young University. Dr.DarwinL. Thomas, Thom-as, BYU associate professor of child development and family relations, presented the lecture Thursday Jan. 11 in the BYU Wilkinson Center. In conducting research on 300 families, Dr. Thomas and his associates found that people with a small amount of power or authority, such as children, tend to be good at taking on roles of their superiors. They do this to learn the feelings of their' superiors and thus gala some influence over them. On the other hand, a person high on the power ladder tends to be a poor role-taker because there are fewer people over him Although Dr. Thomas' research re-search deals with the family power structure, the concept of role-taking has implications in all phases of life such as in the boss-employee relationship and politics. Dr.' Thomas defined role-taking role-taking as the ability of a person to step outside himself and view his actions from the perspective of another person. He then controls his own behavior in a way calculated to please that other person. In the family, the father is the least accurate role-taker. The mother is a little better, the male child even better, and the female child the best, the sociologist explained. The findings of Dr. Thomas and his associates are contrary to the popular notion that parents, par-ents, because of their greater fund of knowledge and experience, understand their children better than their children understand them. In reality, it's the children who are the accurage role-takers who have the better understanding, understand-ing, he said. This tendency on the part of those in authority to forget about the feelings of those under them leads to the so called "generation gap," the professor stated. Parents need to consciously take the role of their children in order to understand them. Good communication plays an important impor-tant part in this process, he explained.

Actually the two part-time teachers, Helen Allen and Monica Mitchell, are Associate Teachers receiving additional experience in public schoolrooms before graduating this spring in early childhood development. They serve as full-fledged members of a teaching team with the cooperating cooper-ating teacher. After finishing student teaching last spring, both girls faced an additional quarter of practice teaching. Most students complete this requirement at the child development lab on campus. The additional classroom exposure ex-posure is designed to allow students stu-dents to work in special school situations, pursue special interests in-terests such as the teaching of reading, strengthening areas of weakness andor performing almost al-most any function of a regular school situation. Mss. Allen and Mitchell asked for special arrangements to be made so that they might return to North Park. Permission was asked by USU of the North Park staff. 'That permission was quickly granted," said Thelma Smith, media coordinator co-ordinator for North Park. "We know Helen and Monica and both are dependable and enthusiastic," she said. "We've just turned things over to them," added Teresa Allred, the second teacher cooperating in the associate asso-ciate teacher program. The two girls are graduates of Orem High School and are roommates room-mates in Logan. Monica, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vern Mitchell, says 'now that I've had my student teaching I know what I want from my education - now I'm ready to take additional methods meth-ods classes. "I chose to come back to North Park because I know the cooperating cooper-ating teachers really care about what kind of teachers are coming up behind them and they will enrich en-rich our educations." Helen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hammond J. Allen, also chose to return to North Park because of a good student teaching teach-ing and much more enjoyable." After two more quarters, both associate teachers will graduate, and in the opinion of public school teachers, USU professors pro-fessors and the girls themselves they will begin in classrooms of their own with a great deal of self-confidence and ability. at 3:00 p.m. &cnool will not be let out for this activity.

Smith, former art gallery director at Brigham Young University, has returned to the BYU art faculty after completing com-pleting major mural project in Upland, Calif. Working 12 to 14 hours a day for two and one-half months, he painted 30 panels, each 20 to 22 feet in size, for a large new recreation center which has been constructed by two former Provoans. Mr. Smith said he used 51 gallons of paint, employing both brushes and spray gun, to create the panels which depict two general gen-eral themes on the interior of the building - Old West and storybook. story-book. The new recreation center was constructed by twin brothers, James W. and John M. Huish, who graduated from BYU in 1960. They started in the recreation business with a miniature golf course in Springville in 1957 and moved to Provo the same year, transferring their interests to California upon graduation from BYU. The Huish Brothers have 19 miniature golf courses in Disneyland, Dis-neyland, Orange County, Redwood City, Pomona Valley, and Oakland. The new Upland facility has eight courses, two of them indoors in-doors and others connected with the building or on the roof. Included In-cluded also are game rooms and a restaurant. Mr. Smith said he painted on the panels all day and sketched the design every night. Each area carries a specific theme. In the Western area, for example, are panels about outlaws, the desert, a frontier town, Indians, etc. The storybook section includes scenes about Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks, Hansel and Gretal, The Wizard of Oz, etc. This was atremendous change for me and the technical problems prob-lems were challenging," the Best Buy Steering and Brakes daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hammond Allen of Orem.
