Dan's winning essay follows: "Vandalism isn't a straightforward, easy to answer, problem. Since there are many causes for vandalism it follows that there must be many changes made to correct the problem. "Some possible causes are the widespread acceptance of violence on television or 'entertainment' and news. is the Another obvious problem crookedness and hypocrisy of our nation's states, and other Many children hear about corrupt government people and lose respect for the 'establishment' and rebel against a tide of hypocrisy. The children learn the rebellion and violence from watching violent police and detective shows. "Another cause of vandalism may be the impersonal 'mass production' concept of school. Many dissatisfied students view school as torture which can be appeased only by dropping out or sticking it out until graduation. These students feel a lack of imin a sense they portance and feel alienated from the teachers and the 'good' students. The frustrations they feel because of the school or the 'establishment' may be momentarily relieved by striking out at the oppressor, and this usually takes the form of vandalism. "Another cause may be the absence of pride and accomplishment.

The organizations had asked for about $1,200 from the city to help sustain their programs until other funding becomes available.

Doug Willes asked council members for permission to dig a ditch so that he could water a piece of ground near 4th South. The piece of land is about an acre and he said he would keep the ditch clean and meet all city requirements. Mayor Singleton said the city was trying to get away from open ditches. Once the ditch is used the Mayor said it would get bigger and the project wasn't in the best interests of the Citv.

Gregg Simper from the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation presented a slide program that outlined what his agency does. Lehi city will be applying to the BOA for funding on the new Lehi swimming pool. According to Mr. Simper his agency is funded through the federal government and they will finance 50 percent of the projects that are accepted. Money for the program comes from revenues created by selling golden eagle passes at state parks, motor boat licenses and special outdoor fees. "None of our money comes from taxes and we are interested in recreation. . . especially recreation that is easily accessable to a large majority of people," he explained. Money from the federally sponsored program has funded some 294 projects at a cost of $48 million. Swiming pools, golf courses, special trials, parks, boat docks and playgrounds have been created from that money. Lehi has until June 1 to apply for who never "The most apparent way of solving the vandalism problem would seem to be the "get tough" policy. This is like wiping the tears away from a crying child one of the symptoms is gone but the problem still exists. "The best answers are deep rooted and would require a general attitude change on the part of young people and on the part of adults. "First of all, the vandal must know that his chances of being caught are very high and that there is a stiff penalty awaiting him if caught. This tends to make the vandalism more risky, limiting the number of participants to only the more daring and adventuress. Burglar alarms, security personnel and watchful neighbors, if well would recognized, increase the possibility of greatly property damage. "Next, if parents, neighbors, and the community in general could become more involved with city and school operations it should generate a feeling of pride in our public and private properties. Then, if someone destroyed some valuable property, he would be striking out against his friends and neighbors, not just the impersonal government or community. Also, if someone realizes the hard work, money and effort put into something, he would be much less apt to harm it. "A 1969 government report stated that 75 percent of the juvenile delinquents have serious difficulty with reading. In most cases this is not an aptitude problem but just a learning disability. If a student starts out "slow" he will tend to remain "slow" and quickly fall farther and farther behind the other students unless he is given some special help in the beginning stages. Private tutors for early grade school children with learning disabilities could completely change the course of their lives. "Basically, vandalism is caused by an attitude and could be stopped by the changing of an attitude." receive all they need may have a distorted set of values. These people are either jealous of or have no regard for the property of others. Vandalism then takes place strictly for thrills. The older we get the more we realize is the only way to stay happy. If we do nothing to benefit others we will do nothing to benefit that service to others ourselves. |
