Although there has been an increasingly loud call for Samaranch to step aside and take responsibility for the biggest scandal in Olympics history, none of the critics so far has come from inside the power base of the IOC, its member sports organizations or its influential corporate sponsors.

Permission is usually granted when the survey consultants telephone the families, PoVey Tobacco survey slowed SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Failure of junior and senior high school students to get their parents to sign permission slips is slowing a survey on tobacco. Officials want to use the sur- vey results in helping the Legislature to decide how to spend its share of the windfall from the nationwide settlement with the tobacco companies. State law requires parents to sign permission slips before their children can participate in surveys taken at public schools. The law was passed five years ago after it was learned that a few Utah teachers had used questionnaires regarding sexual activity. The law "was never intended to block the collection of data needed to manage essential government programs," said School Associate Superintendent Doug Bates, who oversees legal matters for the State Office of Education. However, the law is doing just that to the state Division of Substance Abuse, which surveys tedns about drug and alcohol use j for state prevention programs, j Director Leon. Division PoVey said that prior to the parental permission law, about 95 percent of students in a school sampling would participate in the anonymous surveys. Today, only about 40 percent of students are bringing back permission slips, he said.

"If there is unanimity to vote those people out, then he is going to stay as president," Schultz said. "If they don't, then not only Samaranch but the whole IOC is in serious trouble." Schultz said Samaranch should stay in charge and was confident of the IOC president's ability to direct the Olympics through the bribery crisis. "There is no doubt who is running the show," he said. "No question who's in charge." John Krimsky, the USOC's marketing director, whose job of negotiating sponsorships has been complicated by the Salt Lake scandal, said he has seen no meaningful threats to the IOC president. Utah tourism unharmed by scandal SALT LAKE CITY (AP) The city's role in the biggest corruption scandal in Olympic history seems nut to have soured state residents or those interested in visiting the state. The allegations that Salt Lake's bid committee bribed International Olympic Committee members to win votes in the contest for the 2002 Winter Games seem instead to have vaulted Utah onto the international scene. The Salt Lake Organizing Committee still gets 20 to 30 calls a day from people who want to join the volunteer army that will be mobilized for events and the Olympics themselves. pre-gam- "Utahns seem to want to has rally, and the controversy probably heightened awareness of the Games," said Shelley Thomas, senior vice president for communications. SLOC needs about 8,000 volunteers for test events such as the upcoming National Figure Skating Championships. They've received between 9,000 and 10,000 applications, Thomas said this week. The Utah Travel Council received 414 phone calls on its information line on Tuesday, the highest number ever for one day. Last year on the same ' day, 151 calls came in. During November, the Travel Council was receiving about 600 calls per week. In the first week of January, that number leapt to 1,288, and last week it was 1,451.

Drivers bill defeated ; SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -The House of Representatives rejected a bill Friday that would have imposed stricter penalties on motorists cited for aggressive or reckless driving. The bill would have increased the minimum fine for aggressive driving from $25 to $200. It also would have allowed judges to order offenders to complete a defensive driving course containing information on the "effects of aggressive driving. "I think the more word gets out that we're concentrating on these type of incidents ... the more chance that people will think twice, before committing some of these violations," said Rep. Don Bush, who sponsored the bill. For a short time the bill actually had enough votes to Routes are currently available in your area for newspaper delivery. Adults and kids needed.
