Hearing USU Coach Rod Tuellers remarks on the matter made the evening just that much more special. Tueller, a friend of Payson High Coach Jim Griffin, told the large group attending the banquet in the PHS cafeteria that in his younger years as a high school coach he had lived by what he understood to be the motto of Coach Lombardi: Winning isnt everything, its the only thing. Tueller found that a hard motto to live by as he coache in some small high schools in Utah, and finally he decided to write Lombardi about it. His letter was answered personally by the great coach of the Green Bay Packers in a return letter. Lombardi said he had been misquoted. The motto that he had engraved in his office was actually this: Winningr. Isnt everything, but the desire to win is.

Spelling may not be considered the three Rs, but for the past century they have been close enough to be kissn cousins. And in the past one hundred years the method of teaching spelling has not changed much either. You probably learned spelling by memorizing lists and taking a test on that list once a week. Some recent research suggest that there might be better approaches to the learning of words. Most researchers say that learning lists doesnt help you spell when youre writing, says Yetta Goodman, professor of education at the University of Arizona, Tucson.

Using initial consonants the child spells "butter as - "b -- or b followed by random letters. - Using phonetic spelling the child spells words based on how they sound. "Bake may be spelled "Bak for example. Recognizing patterns the child learns some of the rules about the way groups of to sounds. letters relate "Bake may be "baik. - Mastering the rules from using combining syllables, prefixes and suffixes and constructing words. Unfortunately many of the adults never get through all these stages. But a person can be fluent and not a good speller. Parents can help by letting children write stories at home. The more they write the better it is. And who knows, the next spelling bee might be won by your son or daughter. -- - -- -- the largest organized sportsmens group in the state.

Richard Hodges, director of the School of Education at the University of Puget Sound in says Tacoma, Washington, spellers that win the spelling bees know a lot about words. .They know what they mean, and how they are constructed, he said. Ive seen them time and time again spell difficult words correctly even though they didnt know the word. Spelling teachers need to focus more directly on the structure of words and the rules that govern them, according to Edmund Henderson, director of McGuffey Reading Center at the University of Virginia. Learning to spell is more than just memorizing the order of letters within words, researchers say. Its a gradual process of understanding the structure of the words. The old view that words must be learned one by one comes from the idea that English spelling doesnt follow rules, says Hodges.

Il l . ' I I On Thursday, March 21st, thirteen German students and one guardian arrived at Payson Junior High School. Six boys and SeVen girls spent one day', traveling from Germany to Salt Lake City Airport and thpn .y in cars to Payson. Their names are Kathrin Aulich, Silke Karrasch, Angelike Thomas Koeckemann, Sonja Loeder-duscSylvia Konerding, Markus Maletz, Karin Stefan Puzik, Pattmoeller, Jochen Rehkopp, Claus Schae-peDorthee Thierkops, and Ute Thoss. The teacher from their school in Munster who came along with the students is Brigitte Leyendecker. When asked, Do you enjoy America? they all replied, Bau-meiste- r, r, Yes. When asked what they liked about it, all the boys replied, "Girls! Their first impression of America was that everyone is really friendly. German students say they enjoy having parties, dancing and listening to music from Kiss, Pink Floydd, ACDC, Gianna Nannini, Scorpions, Talking Heads, Duran Duran, Simple Minds and Depeche Mode. They also enjoy sports like soccer, badminton, volleyball, handball and basketball. These students will spend a total of seven days at PJHS and one week in the high school. They will spend another week touring Utahs Canyon-land- s country. Students from Payson will be traveling to Germany as soon as school is out in June to visit the German school in Munster that these German students attend. Wildlife fee hike April 29th Theres good news and bad the bad news first. news; Fishing and hunting license fees will take a jump April 29, when the license fee increase passed by the legislature goes into effect. The fishing license will go up from $13.80 (with the trout stamp) to $18. The big game hunting license will go from $10 to S15, and the combination license will go from $26.30 (with the trout stamp) to $35. Now the good news. Licenses purchased prior to April 29 at the old prices will be good throughout 1985. Trout fishermen will still be required to buy the trout stamp prior to April 29, but the Utah Wildlife Board will almost certainly drop the trout stamp requirement under the new fee schedule. The Board will take up the trout stamp issue at f. meeting in St. George. But the best news, according mid-Apr- il to Division The Salt Lake County Fish ships at that region meet in Carbon. Bryan, Shane, and Sam Ford all won firsts. They are the sons of Bill and Cindy Ford of Elberta, and the family was named Wrestling Family of the Year by the Mt.

Helping him this year as officials for the Mt. Loafer meets have been Rick Johnson, Neil Hansen, Larry Reynolds, Mike and Dave Wilson, Tibbetts. Helping him coach have been Gerald Loveless, Evan Christensen, and Frank Walker. (Walker also operates a sport shop and has been serving as a partial sponsor of the program, too.) Coach Loveless, who was a State Champion at 167 for Payson High School in 1977, will be helping form a Payson Wrestling Association next winter in addition to continuing with his devotion to the community, junior high, and club wrestling programs. 0 of Wildlife Re- sources 'Director Bill Geer, is that the new fee schedule will allow his agency to maintain and likely improve hunting and Weve fishing in the state. got some exciting new programs lined up that will give us a real edge in our efforts to provide a quality outdoor experience for all Utahns, not just hunters and fishermen, says Geer. "Recently enacted legislation, especially the conserva set for tion easement bill, will enable us to provide more sportsmens access to prime hunting and fishing areas, and also provide for the critical winter range needs of our big game herds.
