Management, as well as a sales outlet operated by Canyonlands Natural History Association. But after accepting bids on the project, organizers realized they fell'about $75,000 short of what they needed. A special federal appropriation was approved to provide that needed cash. But the Solicitors Generals office in Washington now says that if federal money goes into the project, the federal government should be a part owner of the building. They are saying, if you take the money, we get a percentage of ownsaid Bob Jones, a leader of ership the committee working on the pro- WINTER SUN 10K Dec. 5, 1992 COURSE DESCRIPTION: Starting from the Moab Golf Course, the Winter Sun 1 0K route passes through pastoral Spanish Valley on its way to downtown Moab and the finish line at City Park.

The rent to going pay is only theyre $24,000, so were subsidizing that about $55-60,00- 0 visitors center for the federal agen cies. Commissioner Manuel Torres was visibly angry at the federal government position. They need to understand, and CNHA needs to understand, were charging a fee that is so small for that building, for the initial investment that the County is putting into that, its almost embarrassing, he said. Were doing this because we feel there is a need for a visitors center, and were giving them a building for almost nothing. Jones said he would try to work out a deal where the federal government would take ownership of fencing, outside signs, and other physical features of the visitors center so that the actual structure would remain property of the County. In further business, HONOR YOUR ELDERS; YOULL BE ONE OF THEM SOME DAY our modern society that places so much emphasis on youth and tries to convince us that we must hang onto the last vestiges of it at all costs, it is small wonder that our older citizens have been largely denied the respect and homage that are rightfully theirs. However, we all learn from life; and those of us who have lived the longest have necessarily acquired the most knowledge based on experience, and are able to make a comparison of the generations within their life span. In fact, they usually have some fasci nating stories to tell if we wou Id but listen; and our faith teaches us to honor them whether they are related to us or not. Let us all remember that we will be in that position some day if we live long enough, and accordingly show our elders the same regard that we will want for ourselves when the time comes. n Do you know Old Age may that come after of YOUR Directory of Churches Church of Jesus Christ of Saints y First Ward -- -- 259-6192 The Parts Store Complete line of Auto Parts 01 322 S.

Search and rescue members setup on the Potash Road where they could look up at the victim. Although he was in yelling distance from the road below it required a four mile drive over rough trail to reach him from above. He wasn't injured but he couldn't go up or down. It was cold, windy and daik. Four search and rescue members took climbing gear and headed up to the mesa top on ATVs. Two more followed in their jeeps. The other spread out along the Potash Road to guide the rescue team. The access from above was indirect and off trail making it hard to locate the victim. The rescue team was guided by spot lights, a flare gun and radioed directions from the road below. They located the victim several hours later. Rescue team members repelled down to him, they put a harness on him and raised him out of the crevasse.
