Davies and the Envision Utah Committee hope to receive the surveys and plan a "hybrid scenario" to benefit all half-mil- Utahns equally. They hope to maintain what Utahns value the most. Such things as the outdoors (18 percent), the people (30 per- cent), the family values (19 percent and the LDS church (16 percent). They took into mind what Utahns viewed as their major concerns. They reported things such as transportation (20 percent), infrastructure (13 percent) and the LDS church (7 percent).

The February-March period is the most important in the Tibetan calendar. The Dalai Lama's administration has postponed by a day Buddhist teaching sessions that were to have begun March 3. The Dalai Lama's lectures on Buddhist doctrine are held every year and attract thousands of visitors, many of them Westerners.

If they can do that, Davies said, many presidential platforms are run on 'smart growth incentive' plans. Al Gore intends to give incentives to states whose planning is done accurately and well. Envision Utah, which has been asked to speak in Washington D.C, has been mentioned as the top planning commission in the nation, according to Davies.

The Marriott Library will now be able to keep most of its current supply of periodicals.

Dalai Lama's sermons. Six hundreds Westerners are also expected. A statement meant to be read publicly by the Dalai Lama on Mon-laan auspicious prayer event, has been written by his staff, but it is not clear if he will deliver it after it is released on March 10. The day is the 40th anniversary of a failed uprising that resulted in the Dalai Lama fleeing Tibet. Over the years, thousands of Tibetans have joined the Dalai Lama in India, where he leads shadow government in the northern city of Dharmsala. The Dalai Lama travels the world to speak out against what he calls China's suppression of Tibetan culture, and to call for more autonomy for the Himalayan province. He remains popular among Tibet's fervently Buddhist people, despite decades of religious repression. -- LU O CO O SALLY FINGRETT, MEGON MCDONOUGH, & CAMILLE WEST Saturday, March 6 Kingsbury Hall 7:00 pm UJ CO FREE TICKETS Available at: UJ Kingsbury Hall Box Office, Olpin Union Main Desk, University Hospital Public Affairs Office, Ave. University Student Apts - 1 945 Sunnyside The Associated Press vices to save money for the U. indepenIf Dixie becomes four-yedently it will drain an already-strappe- d higher education budget. school As an independent four-yeDixie could command more dollars That money from the Legislature. would take away from other established four-yeschools.

Michalak said that while it was a minor victory the money does not provide a permanent solution to the problem. The funding will only cover the price increase for this year. "This means we won't have to have a bloodbath this year," Michalak said. "Some serials will have to be cut but most will be saved." Machen and Haeckel want the Legislature to provide the extra funding for serial price increases on a more permanent basis. Michalak said she is sympathetic to the problems associated with funding, "It's very frustrating for the libraries, the university and the Legislature. This money is not easy to come by," she said.
