Temple Square Pioneer flowers beckon visitors The well-known Temple Square gardens have a "little sister" to the west with her own special historical character. Now in full bloom with spring perennials are the hardy wild flowers and pioneer-era plants surrounding the historica Osmyn Deuel log home . just across West Temple from the Mormon Tabernacle. The gardens add a historical touch to the plaza between the Museum of Church History and Art and the Genealogical Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "The plantings here are more like those surrounding the Beehive House than other gardens created and tended by Church gardeners," says Don Enders, a history curator at the Museum. "The intent here is to create an environment like that in the Salt Lake Valley during the early years of settlement," he said. The log home, faithfully restored and furnished, dates to 1847. It is one of the first build in the valley by Latter-day Saint pioneers for wintering in the Old Fort. The spring flowers now in full bloom in planter areas surrounding the plaza were selected by Esther Truitt, who cares for the gardens under un-der the direction of Church landscape gardener Peter Lassig. Most prominent of the traditional ninetheenth-century plantings are the Columbine. Seemingly dozens of the stately, spurred flowers issue forth for-th a rainbow of colors.

Richard "Burdens of Earth" termed honest portrayal In 1980, when the LDS Church celebrated its sesquicentennial, one would-be playwright submitted part of a script in a Brigham Young University-sponsored drama competition. com-petition. The winner was to have his or her play mounted by the College of Fine Arts and Communications. Because it wasn't a finished product, pro-duct, it wasn't seriously considered for an award. But Robert A. Nelson, an assistant theater professor, was intrigued in-trigued by the author's "honest, human portrayal" of LDS prophet Joseph Smith and often thought about the author's basic concept. A year ago, while attending a Shakespeare conference in Cambridge, Cam-bridge, Mass., Nelson heard about an LDS drama that had been produced in the area. He recognized it as a completed com-pleted version of the same play he had read in 1980, and this time, he inquired in-quired about and contacted the author, Susan Howe, a doctoral candidate can-didate in English and an editor for the magazine "Exponent II." The script, "Burdens of Earth," will finally have its moment on a BYU Benefits slow Geneva talks A billion dollars worth of shutdown shut-down benefits hangs in the balance as talks continue on the prospective sale of Geneva Works to Basic Manufacturing Manufac-turing and Technologies of Utah, Inc. United Steelworkers union leaders and BMT officials have yet to reach an agreement on the issue of shutdown benefits and wages. Wayne Holland, USW District 38 sub-district Director, said that so far talks have centered on " 'boilerplate' language on safety and other less controversial con-troversial issues." USW is taking the position that shutdown benefits must remain as they are now if the plant is sold to BMT and USW steelworkers are to operate the plant. Holland indicated the purchase of the plant cannot come at the cost of union members losing shutdown benefits estimated at about $1 billion. If this sale fails, it appears the plant will be doomed to closure. red Penstemon, a Blue Flax, and orange-petaled Malva. Tansyasters exist in several colors - deep violet, white and blue. Several shrubs are blooming, including in-cluding golden currant, with its spicy-smelling yellow flowers; the large, fragrant white blooms of blue elderberry, and the pale-pink flowers of the wild wood's rose. And - Esther Truitt is anxious to emphasize - the pioneer favorite, black locust trees, are covered with cascading clusters of white blossoms. Miss Truitt has completed putting put-ting in the vegetable garden, which becomes a visitor's delight as the season progresses. This garden, just to the south of the log cabin, will feature pioneer varieties of many standard vegetables - scarlet runner beans, pueblo blue corn, white pattypan patty-pan squash, purple top turnips, and others. Both flower and vegetable gardens gar-dens nestle among the native trees and shrubs found here or imported by this state's first Mormon settlers. Along the north side of the plaza, against the museum, are plants acclimatized ac-climatized to north slopes in Wasatch Mountain canyons, including bristlecone pine, mountain maple, and gambel oak. Opposite, against the genealogical library, are fir, river birch, and more mountain maple. The locust trees are situated directly in front of the cabin, while tall Lombardy poplar form a backdrop back-drop for the old home. With spring plantings in their prime, now is a good time to pay a visit to the plaza for a nostalgic trip into Utah's horticultural past. employees for retirements Larsen, and Helen Ashton ; , 26 years -Grant Cook, Vard Roper, Don Pen-dergrass, Pen-dergrass, and Rex Losee; and 25 years - Bernard Knapp and Rux Plott.

"This Joseph Smith is a real person," per-son," says Nelson. "He's there with all the faith, power and strength one would expect, but he really struggles for self-knowledge as he fears for the saints, fears for himself, and is justifiably depressed about the apostasy of Oliver Cowdery and other early leaders." The time period of the play is 1839, when Smith and others were near the end of a miserable winter in Liberty Jail in Missouri. With few visitors and with cramped, drab and depressing surroundings, the principal prin-cipal escape for Smith and his companions com-panions during their confinement was into their own minds and hearts. Except for Joseph Smith-who is always the same person-the characters shift between being Smith's cell companions and other personalities. Painful arthritis? We can help.

Now 84 and retired in Salt Lake City, Dorfmann has donated more than 10,000 butterflies to the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum at Brigham Young University. The Bean Museum is open Monday Mon-day from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Tuesday Tues-day through Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Rotating selections from the Dorfmann collection will be on display through the summer months. Admission is free. Dorfmann's carefully mounted and spread collection of butterflies from around the world is more than a nice exhibit, said Richard Baumann, associate professor of entomology en-tomology and curator of the exhibit. "Some people collect butterflies like they're pretty stamps, but Dorfmann Dorf-mann chose to collect those that were more difficult to find," Baumann said. "He went out of his way to have a complete collection of a particular rare kind of butterfly. From a scientific scien-tific standpoint, that makes this collection col-lection very valuable." Also of significance is the thorough way each specimen has been handled, noted Baumann. "Dorfmann is a perfectionist and it shows in this splendid collection," he said. "Many times we see collections collec-tions that simply have the 'oh, my' butterflies in them, or the specimens are mounted carelessly.

Dorfmann captured his butterflies but-terflies in such diverse places as the Himalayas, the Appalachian mountains, moun-tains, the Alps, and the mountains of western North America. He traveled throughout Europe, Central Asia and North America chasing the elusive insects. Each butterfly is labeled with a scientific name, along with the date and location of capture. Since the insects in-sects are so fragile, they require delicate attention. Insect-proof cabinets are used to house the butterflies, but-terflies, and they will be treated periodically with insecticides. Born in Poland, Dorfmann was 16 when his first butterfly collection was destroyed with the family home in a fire. His second collection was taken from him during World War II while he was imprisoned in a POW camp. At the end of the war Dorfmann immigrated to the United States where he met and married Ella Bourgnon in 1957. His third collection of butterflies was greatly expanded when the pair traveled widely after his retirement in 1967. Dorfmann said he's happy to see his beloved butterflies at the Bean Museum.
