At Utah Tech, in addition to coaching the women's teams, she teaches physical education classes and is in charge of the women's intramural program. "We had a volleyball team this year," said Miss Benson, "which showed a lot of promise considering the fact that we got started a month late. We will put a softball team into competition this spring. women's is par-at par-at Utah the lady Everything this year has been and will be on a non league extramural basis, but starting next fall these two sports will be on a league basis.

This will enable them to pursue training in a trade or vocation here, while still continuing their interest in athletics." Miss Benson paid particular tribute to Mrs. Carroll Reid, assistant dean of students at Utah Tech, for efforts made in successfully selling the program to the Utah State Board of Vocational Educaiton.

Hunter Education -1977 The majority of Utah's hunting seasons have ended with but a few days left to hunt waterfowl, rabbits and some upland game birds. We can reflect back over one of our best seasons yet with a near record low accident year. The record low was in 1976 with only eight firearms-related field hunting accidents. It was also our very first fatality free deer hunt. It appeared we would duplicate that record until the last weekend of the hunt when a self-inflicted accident in northern Utah proved fatal. A second victim in eastern Utah also died, marring the year with twelve accidents to date and a deer hunt that totaled two fatalities. Yet, this is a far cry from the 126 accidents and 22 deaths we recorded in 1957 they have given over 93,400 hours of instruction in-struction to over 296,102 students. This year alone saw 560 active instructors train nearly 14,000 young hunters. The instructors gave 4,670 hours of their time toward making the sport of hunting safer for all of us. Not only are today's young hunters a safer lot, they are far more knowledgeable about their sport than in earlier years. Today's young hunter learns about modern wildlife management and wildlife conservation as well as the safe handling of his firearm. He gains a knowledge of basic survival in the event he becomes lost. He learns good sportsmanship and field first aid, along with many other related subjects. All this from a volunteer work force of Utah's citizen sportsmen. A success story of which they can be justly proud. How Aro You Sot For Tho now MJ0m) wV 1 Taking heavy clothing out of home storage?

In many cases, trusts can be used to save income and estate taxes for property owners and their families. In addition, trusts can offer peace of mind from investment worries for the too-busy too-busy or amateur investor. But like many other good ideas, these benefits are quick to be overplayed by opportunists. Recently, the IRS warned taxpayers about the misrepresentations of socalled "family" trusts. The "Setup": "The individual in-dividual is advised to assign assets and income from current employment to the trust. The promoters then advise that, in exchange, the creator of the trust may receive "compensation" as an officer trustee, or director, as well as certain "fringe benefits," such as "pension rights," "tax-free use of a residence," and "educational endowments" for children. "According to the promoters, once the creator's income is shifted to the trust, the trust is supposedly taxed only on undistributed net income. in-come. The promoters also claim that substantially all living expenses of the creator and his or her famiy may be deducted on the trust's fiduciary income tax return as business expenses, and that the balance might then be distributed to the creator's family or to a separate "nonprofit" "non-profit" educational trust leaving little or no taxable income to be reported." The "Sting": As you might expect, those benefits are too good to be true. And despite what some promoters say, these "Family Estate," "Pure," or "Educational" trusts are NOT approved by the IRS or the courts. In fact, several courts have upheld the IRS's disallowance of AMERICAN FORK CITIZEN THURSDAY. DEC. 29, 1977 deductions.
