However, the one now housed at IYSC is the first in the slate of Utah First, a little history. In the lOfiOs, the government created TRIO - a collection of three educational programs that sen e low income students vv ho are the lirst in their lamilies to attend a postseoondary institution EOF began in 72 under the '1RIO umbrella, and its main jiurpose is to help potential students w ilh college selection, career exploration, admissions processing, linancial aid paperwork and college success skill development.

Financial aid processing is critical, Managing Director Barney Nye. 'Many jieojile don't know whal Institutions nationwide design their own personalized TRIO programs and submit them to the feds for approval and funding. Xve said all the schools in Utah have written and submitted proposals, but none had been accepted - until now. After being accepted last September, I YSCs EOF will be landed for the next five years with a SI million grant from the Department of Education low ev er. the establishment of EOF is not meant to be a recruiting tool for L VSF, Nye said. The program simply aims to build educational opportunities - at any institution - for those who do not otherwise have them. "We realize no single institu-tio- n offers every educational option, so we are working to see that our clients find a program that is a good fit for their needs, Nye said. Whether its cosmetology, a 1 indi-vidu- al welding certificate or a bachelor's degree in philosophy, we at EOF recognize the importance of higher education and the jiositiv e impact it has on individual lives and, in turn, the community. The source of the education matters less than the education itself in building stronger individuals and stronger communities.' EOF is designed to help 1,000 people annually in Utah, Wasatch, Duchesne, Uintah, Carbon, Emery, Grand and San Juan counties. In support of this vast geographical spread, UYSC has formed partnerships with College of Eastern Utah in Price and its branch campus in Blanding, as well as Utah State University - Uintah Basin. Gwen Anderson, director of the UVSC Multicultural Center, works daily with nontraditional students on their pathways to success. More individuals, businesses, and institutions need to be aware of this unique heads-uto our adult, nontraditional population desperately seeking a postsecondary education, she said. Frequently, our nontraditional students become our highest achievers and greatest contributors at UYSC. EOC is a phenomenal program for displaced workers, single parents and ambitious adults anxious to contribute meaningfully to society. p For college hopefuls who would be the first in their families to attend college, Nye recommends they contact the EOC coordinators in their low-inco- respective areas.

UTAH POWER Making it happen. fruit pest control include Diazinon, Imidan, Malathion, Sevin and Dipel. Old standby Diazinon is being taken off the market, but can still be used while supplies last. Diazinon should be applied to apple trees every two to three weeks to provide control of Codling Moth lar- vae, which are the worms in wormy apples. Imidan can be applied to apple trees every three to four weeks. Sevin should be applied every two weeks to provide adequate control, and Malathion and Dipel should be applied weekly. Codling moths sometimes feed on pear fruits. If wormy pears have been a problem, pear trees should be treated when the apples are sprayed. Other common spring fruit pests include Green Peach and Black Cherry Aphids. Both are sucking bisects that can damage fruit trees if present in large numbers. Symptoms of aphid infestation include leaves that are curled downward from the edges, and sticky honeydew on leaves, branches and twigs. Ants may be seen scuttling up and down the trunk of trees as they feed on the sticky excrement from the aphids. With the exception of Dipel, all of the insecticides listed for Codling Moths also control aphids. Insecticidal soap sprays such as Safers are TV antennas, pool skimmers, irrigation pipes or ladders.

Insecticides commonly recommended for home -- . s a also effective against aphids. Sprays must be directed at the bottom of the leaf so that the solution contacts the aphid directly. One application is usually enough to provide control. Affected leaves will remain curled even after the aphids have been killed. The Extension Office has received several requests for names of persons who will spray home fruit trees. I'm not aware of any licenced pesticide applicator who is spraying fruits trees, said Worwood. If someone is offering that service, I wish they would call the Extension Office at 1 and let me know so I can refer inquiries to them. 381-238- I , |
