One such obligation, is to provide adequate numbers of highly qualified personnel to patrol the slopes Snow on is right here in Utah. This information is being spread to every corner of the United States bringing to our ski slopes even greater numbers of "Greatest The Earth" skiers. injured. It is to these people, the Utah members of the National Ski Patrol, that this article is addressed and this tribute paid. The titular head of the ap3,000 proximate members of the National Ski Patrol is Mr. Schonberger of Denver, Colo. The Utah membership consists approximately 200 members who, on any given day, are reasonably well dispersed over the many resorts. Where the number of skiers require full time patrols every day of the week, the patrol members are employed by the resort. Their numbers are supplemented on weekends by the members. volunteer patrol Whether their services are performed as an employee, or as a volunteer, their qualifications are the same. full requires Membership competence in advanced First Aid, and a high degree of demonstrated proficiency in skiing in all kinds of snow, in any terrain, under any conditions.

One of the many duties of the patrol is to check the resort area for potenial avalanche dangers. In some cases it is necessary to actually enter a dangerous area in order to bring out careless or unobservant skiers. In some instances, performing th;s service for the preservation of safety on the slopes, the patrol member has inadvertently triggered the condition which he was trying to prevent. In spite of efforts of the overtheir team-matesize and force of whelming major avalanches have taken their lives. In performing their rescue missions, the patrol member does not always have the downhill slide nor the convenience of the rescue toboggan. On one such occasion, one of the local members at Beaver patrol Mountain, made a five mile trek into a heavily wooded area in order to give aid to an in- jured skier. Upon arrival at the accident site, it was discovered that a severe fracture required immediate attention. The patrol member set ihe break, using ski poles for splints, fashioned a makeshift toboggan out of their skis, and under extremely adverse condition, pulled the skier to safety and professional medical care. So the next time you're out skiing and you see the jacket, identifying the ski patrol member, remember why he's there: helping to make "The Greatest Snow on Earth" the "SAFEST Snow on Earth". d - ; Ixtll it 1 i is v 'o Student Registration At BYU Setfor July 31 Check Your "Jills n-WC- Students planning to enter Brigham Young University next autumn for the first time are reminded that the applicat.on deadline is July 31 and only two dates remain for taking the American College Test, which is necessary for admission. For several years BYU has required all students entering the University to take the ACT before registration. However, many have delayed until they reached the campus, thus delaying their advisement and registration. This year, according to President Ernest L. Wilkinson, the results of the test must accompany the application for admission. Students transferring from other universities and colleges may be admitted on their past records, but will have to take the test at orientation time. The test which costs $4, is administered at testing centers located in all states in November, February, April. June and August. The test is given on a Saturday morning at test centers, which are usually at colleges or high schools. Students should register well in advance of the test date and only during the. registration period designated for the test date. Students should check with their high school principal or local college for the test dates and places, and fill out an application form. Results of the test will be sent to the college or university designated the Admissions Office. Dr. Lynn Eric Johnson, acting director of admissions and records, said the July 31 deadline is necessary to enable the University to do a better job of planning class offerings, staffing classes and arranging classrooms. He said it also enables students to be better prepared for study by eliminating hasty decisions, gives the Admissions Office time to counsel students not prepared to attend BYU, gives more time to evaluate credits and previous college improves the orientation program. Students should also remem- ber that a $25 deposit is due within 30 days of the date of admission. This is to influence students to make a decision about selection of the University in time for proper planning, financing, and housing, and enables the University to determine the number of students who will actually Sugar Co.

There are about 1,300,000 Americans, now alive, cured of cancer. A large contributing factor has been broad public and professional education programs and research efforts. The American Cancer Society needs more money to help carry on and expand these programs. 3. "Fight Cancer With a Check and a Check-up.- " Many die from cancer today because they do not have an annual health checkup which can usually reveal the disease when it is early and most curable. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is the difference between one out of two saved instead of one out of three the number being saved now. If cancer exists, an annual checkup will usually disclose the disease when it is most curable. The check is self evident: without finances for important future research we can not hope to save half of those who develop cancer. Also the check will help provide greatly needed funds for broader puband service lic, professional programs.
