Two basic criteria must be met to become eligible for assistance in the winterization program, they explained: The home to be winterized must be owner occupied, and the eligible family's income must fall within the outlined scale. The scale ranges between $3,500 an nually for a non farm family of one or $3,000 for a farm family of one , to $9 25 for a non farm family of six or $7,750 for a farm family of six. Families who feel they are eligible may contact either Mrs. Hansen at Mr. Young at any Senior Cit'zen Center, or the office in Provo at 455 North University, The volunteers explained that the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973 states that VISTA's mission "is to strengthen and supplement poverty and poverty-relateproblems on the human, social and environmental level, by encouraging and enabling persons from all walks of life and age groups, including elderly and retired Americans, to perform meaningful constructive and volunteer service in agencies, institutions, and situations where the application of human talent and dedication may assist in the solution of poverty and poverty-relateproblems and secure and exfor selfploit opportunities advancement by persons afflicted with such problems. The VISTA program rests on three basic assumptions: a. that private citizens can, on a voluntary basis, contribute to the solution of the nations domestic poverty problems. b. that the skills and energies of volunteers are used most effectively when the volunteers live and work with he low income people whom hey are serving; and a e three-count- Nancy Wilson, Payson, has had the unique to design costumes for a full- - stage production duled Feb. 18-1- Wait Until Dark, at SUSC. 24-2- 6 Payson girl tops , in costume course of the play, the time period represented, and the director's visual concept and interpretation of the script were The makings of a dramatic presentation arent always found on stage.

That would involve drafting patterns and constructing the actual costumes, both aspects of theatre which are taught in SUSC pattern drafting and costume design classes. Since I obviously couldnt outfit eight people on $200, the search for suitable costumes began. I had no idea how difficult it is to locate gloves. Weve even had to build a couple of hats, she said. Characterization is another problem the costumer faces.
