Show THE SAN JUAN RECORD, Thursday, August 30, 1979 - Page Earns degree Travel picture not all bleak Haslem of Beaver, superintendent of the Beaver County School District, was a warded a doctoral degree in administration educational commrecent summer during encement services at Brigham Young University. He received the Ed.D. degree at exercises in the Mar Lynn Despite a dec line in the num ber of out - of - state visitors to Utah this summer, the picture should not be painted bleak, according to Utah Travel Council Director Alton Frazier. -- Utah, like every other state in the nation, is facing a curtailment in its tourism fi- gures' Frazier said.' there are, however, But" two factors that have softened what could have been a severe blow to our industry, and those are the number of Utahns rediscovering their own state, and the unusually large number of foreign visitors who are coming to Utah. The Travel Council, at the request of Utah Governor Scott M. Matheson, initiated the riott Center at which Rediscover Utah" project in late April to encourage Utahs to see their home state while at the same time conserving motor fuels. Through the months of May, June and July the project met with excellent acceptance and success, and the trend continues to be strong. 1,838 degrees were awarded. A total of 83 doctoral degrees were presented. Dr. Haslem is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John H. Haslem of Roosevelt. He is married to Joan Hunt Haslem of Blanding, and they have four children. A 1948 graduate of Alterra High School in western Uintah County, Dr. Haslem earned a B.S. degree in elementary education at BYU in 1966, the M.Ed. degree in educational administration at Utah State University in 1970, and the education specialist certificate in educational adminis- tration at USU in But Nells Notes the real silver lining to what was anticipated to be a dark cloud has been the unexpected number of visitors from other nations to visit Utah, Frazier said. In the first two months of summer foreign travelers have accounted for between 15 and 25 per cent of the people visiting Utah, and their presence has done much to brighten the travel industry picture. Frazier pointed out that from an economic standpoint the foreign visitor has a greater impact on the Utah travel industry than does the av- erage American tourist. Our guests fromother nations usually arrive in Utah by bus or one of the airlines, Frazier said. As a result, their stay in the Beehive state is generally longer than that of a pass - through visitor, and because of this their. expenditures are usually greater as well. Frazier noted that visitors from Sweden and Norway lead the list of travelers in num- f with West Germany, England, France and Switzerland following. bers, Frazier said that the usually high number of foreign visitors to Utah was precipitated by the favorable exchange rate for foreign currency to American dollars, the longer vacation times generally alloted European workers, and the fact that the U nited States in general, and Utah in particular, is beinj discovered by vacationers from other lands.
