A A I w , V.-- w, ....... sR TV's Role The role of educational television and its potential in meeting the cultural and information needs of northern Utah were explained Wednesday In Biig-haCity by an official of KUSU. Jerry Allen, assistant mana-ge- r of the educational TV station which Is located on the Utah State university campus, said the local area shouldn't be upon New York or Hollywood or even Salt Lake City to determine its cultural fare. SPEAKING TO THE Brigham City Klwanis club at a noon luncheon In the Tropical restaurant, he said there Is a sincere quest for culture in THE KUSU transmitter Is located on the valley floor In Logan Instead of on a mountain top where It could beam effectively into all of northern Utah. Reception of the station, Channel 12, Is spotty In Brigham City and is not received at all along the mountain front. UNFORTUNATELY Educational television provides classes for enrichment credit, college cultural offerings, courses, such as ballet, plays and operas and information. IT STRIVES FOR more In. depth reporting than Is the case with commercial TV and In this sense is becoming more like the countrys good newspapers, the speaker stated. While some stations are financially healthy, some through subscriptions, community others are struggling to make ends meet. KUSU Is a operation state-finance- decline With about 114 stations with NET now, there to be approximately by 1970, he added. HOWEVLH, IT IS still not late to sign up Rpglstia. tlon will continue open dm ing the first week of school und parents are advised to contact the principal m their respective sellout aiea foi inhumation about classes and hours.

Commission Turns Thumbs Down on Tax Box Elder County commissioners are not favor of Salt Lake City and county's proposal for a special session of the state legislature to grant an additional t sales tax increase. They made this position clear in response to a letter from the Utah State Association of Counties. The commissioners ordered letters giving their stand sent to the governor, Box Elder legislators and the USAC executive director. They said the only thing that would convince them to even consider such an increase is if it could be distributed on a per capita basis. We are not in favor of any kind of tax increase," they said. in half-cen- are $3 legardless Summer Fun Slate ill Open on Friday of Initial action in Brigham ane. summer recreation Some of ihe ionises being of- Citys include type, arts and program will get underway Frifered crafts, baton, reading, arithme- day with registration for most tic, science, Spanish and physl-ca- l activities slated next Monday and Tuesday, June fitness.
