Show THE DAILY UTAH fi ( THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH THURSDAY. JANUARY 19. 1978 or v rr-tt -- iff r- VOLUME 87. NO. 79 - Retired coach tells means to success f by JOHN HASBROUCK Chronicle staff of the UCLA Bruins, spoke to more than 400 people Wednesday at noon in the Union Ballroom. Noted as the winningest coach in basketball history, Wooden spoke on the topic of success, and elaborated on his "pyramid of success." He noted that the criteria for success in the dictionary involves having many material possessions andor being in a position of status, such as a company picsidcnt. In his life, others have measures his success in terms of basketball wins and losses, but to Wooden, this is not success. "My greatest abilities and achievements have not been in basketball," said Wooden, who pays closer attention to how many of his players are doctores, dentists and lawyers, than to how many are in professional basketball. "Success is a peace of mind that can only be attained in knowing that you have done your through best to become the best in what you are capable of doing," said Wooden. His background as an English teacher and his love of poetry are evident in his lectures, as he frequently recites a poem or other literary excerpt that relates to his subject. YThen striving for perfection, Wooden said, "there is no substitute for hard work. The things that mean the most in life are those which are the hardest to attain. If you try to take short cuts, you are not filling your potential." In the mid 1930s, Wooden began formulating his pyramid of success. He emphasized the importance of enthusiasm one of the cornerstones as being first and foremost. Wooden said, "If you aren't enthusiastic about what you are doing, you shouldn't be doing it. I don't like coaches who'cry and complain about how hard their job is; if they don't like it, they should get out." In his early years of coaching at UCLA, Wooden did research on every aspect of the game, such as rebounds, offenses and defenses, and presses. After studying of types each topic a full year, he made a composite list which he later used in guiding his teams to 10 national championships. At the top of Wooden's pyramid is competitive greatness, described by him as "doing your greatest when your greatest is needed. " He said it is easy to do well when the going is easy, but it is the mark of a true champion who does his greatest when the pressure is on. John Wooden, John Watson Keith Holt Co. tows illegally parked cars from car pool area. Car pool lots misused, towed cars problem get by JIM SMEDLEY Chronicle staff That parking problems continue to plague the University was evident Wednesday as six student cars were marked for towing by Keith Holt Co. at 10:30 a.m. The problem cars were parked in the "car pool only area" located between Orson Spencer Hall and the Union Building. Of the seven vehicles parked, only one had the correct sticker. "We don't impound the cars unless the stall is full," said Bart Ellis, Parking Services field supervisor. "Problems arise when the stall is full and a legal car pool member comes and has no place to park." To properly tow a car, a Holt employee must enter the vehicle and take an inventory of all articles in the car. The employee also inventories the condition of the vehicle, making notes on all dents and scratches to prevent claims against the company for damage. According to Ellis, it is legal for the Holt driver to enter the car because after the car is impounded, it becomes the property of the University until the owner claims it. from the Associated Press WASHINGTON, D.C.

Each car must park in its assigned space or it will be in violation also," said John Wright, director of Parking Services.
