E.T. only has 14 lines in the entire film, according to Welsh, but each line was very important because each had to reflect what the alien had learned in his short time on earth. "Each line had to reflect meaning, the significance and the message of what he had learned." When she taped E.T.'s voice, the special effects technicians synchronized the alien's mouth movements to coincide with her voice. Now that she's dubbing in foreign languages, she has to sync with the film. "It's a real challenge," she said. "We've finished the French and Spanish versions. Now I'm doing German, and Italian will be next." Child actors from those countries are hired to dub the lines of the children in the film, she said. "They have a tutor from Berlitz (a language school) there with me all the time," said Welsh. "Our ears are not attuned to the nuances of other languages. When - Page Discovery a xFluke' XET have asked Welsh not to make any appearances because they do not want the voice of E.T. to become too ragged or overexposed. "The voice has a quality of magic," explains Welsh, which the studio doesn't want to spoil. Wiil there be a "E.T. -Part Two"? Welsh says. "There's a very good chance. It's a topic of great discussion right now." The producers and director have to The opening foggy sequence was shot near Crescent City.

Although she said "I haven't made a fortune," she revealed she's being paid a lot more for her foreign language dubbing than she was lor her work on the original film.

Welsh has seen the film twice, "I was amazed at the number of children who went back and back to see it. It seems to appeal to so many even to my peer ages group who haven't been to the movies in 20 years." Welsh, San third-generati- Franciscan who majored in public speaking at University of California at Berkeley, almost was discouraged from pursuing this career because she has a congenitally small nasal bridge. As a partial explanation to how she acquired her distinctively low voice, Welsh said, "Unfortunately, I picked up the habit of smoking." Her "voice" also was altered electronically for "E.T." to sound "like it's coming out of a tunnel." Universal th this Halloween (JEST 1 1W W. with Danskin leotards and tights Columnist Foresees Newsmen Revamping journalists American SALT LAKE CITY must bring historical perspective and an intellectual dimension to their coverage of American politics if they truly are to fulfill their obligation to inform the public, says the associate editor of The New York Times. Tom Wicker said during the John F. Fitzpatrick Lecture, sponsored annually by The Salt Lake Tribune, that journalists no longer can play the sports reporters trying to give an objective account of a game being played far below them. "Ever since the Vietnam War, we're not in the pressbox anymore," he said. "We're in the game. It doesn't matter how well or how badly we play. We affect how the public thinks and reacts." Journalists have to jump three hurdles in the 1984 elections if they truly are to fulfill their role of informing the public.

The second problem, Wicker said, is simplistic, advertising which makes charges candidates can't answer and the advertisers can't prove. Such advertising often capitalizes on pieces of the candidate's record taken out of context which grossly distort the candidate's record and philosophy. "This kind of advertising has become the single most important institution in American politics, and it should be covered as much as speeches and debates," he said. "They should be challenged and refuted if necessary." Candidates who benefit from such advertising, even if they disavow any direct participation in its preparation, should be held accountable for it, Wicker said. Thirdly, he said, the news media rather especially television than party politics decide who's going to run and they promote and lend impadt to extravagant, unrealistic political promises. Thus, Wicker said, the people come to view every candidate with a big promise as a "miracle man" with instant solutions to their prob- lems. "Because of television politics, the art of getting elected is going that direction, and the art of governing is going this direction," he said, gesturing toward opposite sides of the Hotel Utah Grand Ballroom. "When the man who made the extravagant promises gets in office and fails to produce, t people's hopes are dashed." 399.99 Toro 429.95 electric start 339.99 Toro 369.95 recoil start Take the classic snowthrower either way - and take winter off your back.
