"And that's only one of the 12 needs that have been identified for rural communities," he added. The new program would have provided all 12 needs. Christensen said he feels the recent decision by Cache to County Commissioners withdraw support of the district application stems from a "distrust of mental health officials and a distrust of the mental health profession." County cont from page one The hearings are for the purpose, hopefully, of convincing Cache County Commissioners to support an expanded district Comprehensive Mental Health program. The counties of Rich, Cache and Box Elder had an application pending which for the program would have provided federal and state funds for the next the eight years allowing local program to expand. Chase noted that there is still "a possibility that something could be worked out if they don't change their minds." But he noted that the Cache move" does seriously affect our priority" for funding.

White has expressed concern about the possibility of boys and girls in participating together programs such as physical education in high schools. In a letter to the Board of Education of the Box Elder County School District, Mr., White expressed concern the Federal Title IX program which is forcing institutions which accept federal funds to eliminate all sex discrimination. The result has been a projected elimination of separate educational classes for boys and girls. Said White: "It has been recently called to my attention that certain new policies may be adopted by the schools of the Box Elder County as a result of implications which have developed from the.. .Title IX program." "I understand that equal programs are now offered to both boys and girls in most instances," he continued. "I do, however, feel that it is wrong for such programs as physical education to have both boys and girls of secondary school age in the same class at the same time. No matter how carefully the programs are conducted, there cannot help but be situations arise as a result of the students being placed together when they are not fully clothed." The stake president said he is "concerned that the high level moral training and experience which has been available to the youth of our county for many years be maintained." He lauded the board for the "cautious manner" in which it is approaching the subject and urged them to "keep an open mind on the sutject." "It is my understanding that several groups have in- tentions of contesting the federal program and it may result in the fact that we have become over excited Principals in the various schools have expressed less concern noting that it primarily the labels "girl's" and "boy's" which will be changed. Girls, for instance, will still have the opportunity to enroll in a PE class taught by a female instructor. Boys, however, will not be prohibited from the class If they choose to register for p. with With power reverse & automatic shut-of- f when Briggs Stratton Tilling width Reg. engine 24" 16" slasher tine 12" diameter. blades..

Mr. White is at least the second person to take issue with the Title IX requirements torced on the school board. Former County Commissof ioner John Holmgren Bear River City also recently condemned the law. . "I'm personally opposed. I can't see how we can have girls and boys in the same gym class and I can't conceive why we can't just have boys' glee and girls" glee," he told board members recently. Richard Kimber, director of pupil personnel, admits that he doesn't quite know what would happen if the board voted to ignore the requirement. would Federal funds conceivably be in jeapardy. At stake are about $999,220 in federal funds (about of the district budget) through various programs which could be withheld to force compliance. Malcolm Young, another former county commissioner and stake president, told board members he is also against the law. Holmgren suggested that "nobody's pushing compliance.
