As an inveterate r, I'm always making comparisons to help me remember the differences. Hie Milan Airport When we first arrived from New York, we had a stopover of several hours in Milan, Italy, before we continued on to Cairo. Any international airport fascinates me, but the show was better than in Los Angeles or New York airports. The Italian women had lustrous hair, and many were in the new "mannish" suits and carried briefcases. Others wore seductive, flowing dresses and fabulous jewelry. The Italian men who passed my observation post were generally smaller and darker than the average in the VS. Some were very slender and wore a broad sash over their business trousers and vest or sweater. Expressive bands, unsmiling faces. Very distinctive! Soldiers in dark green or brown wore boots and berets and carried sawed --off guns. The men's walk was as different as their complexions: very macho, "own the world," in command. Their confidence was expressed in the brace of the shoulders, the flip of the feet. Only a few were simpering. Many black people were congregated in the airport. The women, amply proportioned, people-watche- free-fallin- dressed in bright prints with a bustle fore and aft. Scarfs twirled around their heads. One woman with a long, cerise dress, blue slip streaks had pink-reshowing, hair. emblazoning her Both the Italian and the black women had a very distinctive way of throwing their hips as they walked - not just locomotion, but an expression of sensuous awareness. The Streets of Paris The famous fashion houses on the Champs Elysees have often set dress standards for the rest of the world. But it seems their influence is dwindling. In fact, from our experiences in European cities, "anything goes." Rigid rules on propriety have yielded to a casual acceptance of individual preference. We haven't attended a high-clas- s social function (except the ballet), but I made the following notations as we window-shoppe- d and visited the important tourist spots: On women: Shorter pants, fullness at the hips and tight legs; tight, TIGHT jeans (how do they sit d k down?); lots of jumpsuits and on jogging suits (especially tourists) ; big shirts and sloppy tops, few defined shoulders; and tank tops; assymetrical balance in patterns; full printed skirts; lacy e sweaters (and tops and without a bra! ) ; lots of hot pink and intense yellow-gol- d - and lots of n khaki (even in dresses); fewer high heels tottering on the cobbled streets; more inwith pointed formal, low heels toes (a podiatrist's nightmare) ; lots loose-weav- high-fashio- - of jewelry. On men: Lots of (especially tops students riding shorts and tank on backpacking the Eurail); business suits (formality still expected in commerce and politics); the usual. and jeans, slacks was in a window Displayed a new: something shirt. On top of a striped body was shown a red collar on the left and a white collar on the right. Intriguing! The only black people I observed, other than fleetingly, were in the parks or around long lines of tourists, such as those waiting to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower. They were men, some young, some older, dressed in long brown robes. They were peddling bracelets or mechanical flying birds. Unob - half-and-ha- lf There's nothing like the pomp of a military parade and the thrill of watching dad or mom marching to draw a crowd. And that's exactly what happened Sept. 8 at Camp Williams as 5,000 guardsmen and 10,000 spectators gathered to celebrate the Utah National Guard's annual Family Day. A nostalgic Gov. Scott M. Matheson reviewed the troops for the final time in his term as governor. He, too, enjoyed a flyover of National Guard aircraft, the n salute, the music of the Guard's 23rd Army Band and the sight of soldiers marching. "It's a little nostalgic," admitted Gov. Matheson. "I'm more proud of the Guard this year than ever before. We're at 105 percent of strength. And I know that, in Maj. Gen. John Mathews (Utah's adjutant general), I'm leaving the Guard in good hands." In his speech before the troops and their families, the governor praised the Utah Guard for helping with emergency flooding problems the past two years. "It's nice to know that we have men and women in the Guard willing to step forward in case of an emergency," he said. u jm 8m , 3 Lehi National Guard Day Captain Alan R.

Friends may call An 'Assertive Discipline Program' has been inaugurated at Lehi Elementary School and will be the basic method of dealing with disciplinary matters. Lehi Junior High has also adopted the system which allows a coordination of expectations between the two schools. Students will know in advance what is expected of them and will have developed good decision-makin- g skills in the area of after working in the same system, kindergarten through eighth grades. This will allow teachers to spend time than rather teaching disciplining. con"We believe negative sequences cannot change behavior, but only stop it. Positive consequences must be used to change behavior permanentley, such as: positive phone calls home, being a classroom helper, opportunities to operate audio visual equipment tutoring opportunities and extra computer use," explained Paul Rasband, Lehi Elementary Bart Allen Bench Orem City Cemetery.

Burial will be in the U.S.ThriftLqan 0o S "We believe we should care enough to set firm guidelines of behavior. Students are then taught the importance of making wise decisions regarding the law of the land," Rasband said. One of the techniques used in this teaching is "Stroke, Stroke, Zap" wherein the expected behavior is clearly described. At least two students are praised for correct modeling of the behavior before the students is given a negative consequence for a poor decision regarding the desired behavior. Key concepts include the ideas of rights and conand choices, rules sequences, balance, support and follow through. 'H Am fecwirt g i ft Lehi man dies Tiptf Egypt. I love window-shoppinin Paris. Can't buy anything; spent all my money on tablecloths in Florence and my suitcase won't shut now. But I love to look. In a piece-good- s shop, white net, beautifully trimmed with lace and embroidery was draped on a dias and fanned across the floor. At the apex fresh flowers surrounded beautiful crystal pieces. The sun rainbowed through the prisms onto the net. Such a beautiful display! Next we're going to the Tivoli Gardens.
