Yet, if this year was like past years, 5 to 15 percent of Utahns eligible to vote attended May 19s mass meetings. Accesss to the states political system is by statute a simple matter. Any resident who will be 18 at the time of the November general election has the right and obligation to participate in the mass meeting of his choice within his voting district. Minorities who have organized political machinery effectively have been able to exert influence beyond their numbers. Only 10 nercentof the Russian people are Communist Party members. Still that minority holds dominant control. It is an irony that about the same percentage of Utahns feel it important to attend mass meetings. Despite this, many Utahns complain that government is not responsive to their needs. Taxes are too high. Programs are inefficient or inappropriate. Too little service is rendered. There is too much governmental intervention in lives and business. Rather than being a government of the people, ours has become a government of special interests. There are groups willing and ready to spend money and time to make certain that their particular desires and needs are met. They are more than capable of supporting representatives who may be favorable to their goals. This is one reason taxes have continued to grow faster than the economy during the past 50 years. There are those who benefit economically from the continued growth of government programs and restrictions. The average taxpayer now must work from January 1 to March 11 to pay his share of the tax burden. The only effective way to combat that kind of influence is for individual citizens to become involved early in the political process and for them to remain in contact with the workings of the government. The May 19 date is past, but it is not too late to become informed of the issues at stake and the candidates who will be chosen in county, state and national conventions. It is not too late to begin work for those who will best serve you. If you did attend your local mass meeting, consider yourself a responsible citizen. If you attended and were elected an officer in the voting district, be the best officer ever elected to that position. If you were elected, then expect to work. Fulfill your commitment with reliability and thoroughness. If you are not an elected officer, support those who were elected. Find out who they are and become involved in the political process. That process has been neglected as of late. Not only are foreign powers wondering what we're all about and just how far they can threaten us, but many Americans, like you, are wondering. Become involved in our political process. Our strength must come from within, and it must come now. In some cases, doctors do a resting ECG or have the person take a step test while being moniIn others, the patient tored. and down for a while up steps and then has the heart tested with the ECG. Health professionals have even gone so far as to recommend that everyone over 35 be stress tested as a part of the yearly Stress physical examination. tests are being recommended for anyone over 35 who is planning to embark on an exercise program. Do You Need A Stress Test? Originally it wasnt possible to compare ECG findings with the deamount of posits in the coronary arteris. with advances Technological (heart coronary arteriograms catheterization) have made this possible. Data are now available from a study sponsored by the Division of Heart and Vascular Disease of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. The answer to our question is that it wont help a great deal. ' f trikes. And the worst thing about the chuckholes is that no one can really do anything about them. The city crews can fill them in and then come back the next day and fill them in again. ..and again. ..and again... But until the roads get some major repairs done on them, Payson will have a chuck hole problem. Of course, the major repairs need money, (Thats the stuff thats in such great demand these days, but that no one ever sees much of. I think its green and has peoples pictures on it.) and no one wants to give that out for repairs. A p ..'it . ' 'ujXy t TV- 3A 4 '. Payson Band says thanks ' ' ' s ' '4... Ranae Jensen, Mark Orton and Sherilynn Wride display instruments purchased through the students fund raising projects. The Payson High School Band wishes to express their thanks to the community for all of the support given this past year. The band has come a long way in four short years.

Mr. Chatwin has found many ways to cut corners and get quality. He has purchased good used instrucments and has gone directly to manufacturers for kilt and bag pipes.

The group meets Tuesdays s at 4 p.m. at leader Norma A The study shows, for example, that men, (who are more prone to coronary artery disease at an earlier age than women) with typical chest pain, usually do have coronary artery disease and the history is so reliable that doing a stress test doesnt add much to making a diagnosis. In a farily high percentage of cases there are false negatives and false positives, which means that some who have no symptoms do have coronary artery disease and others who have symptoms diagnosed form the test really do no have coronary artery disease. Such negative tests simply confuse the issue and lend a false sense of security to the patient e and the doctor. tests bring fear into lives where there is nothing seriously wrong. What Does It All Mean? False-positiv- to Dr. Lawrence According It means the electroE. Lamb, cardiographic stress test is of little value, whether the results are positive or negative, in either patients who have symptoms of heart disease or in our general population which is symptom free. Consequently, it seems obvious that millions of people who have no history of heart disease and have no symptoms to suggest heart disease should not be required to have a stress test before embarking on a sensible exercise program. The best predictive tests are those that measure your risk factors-su- ch as high blood favorable ratio of pressure, HDLLDL cholesterol, smoking, and some indirect factors such as obesity and lack of exercise. Obesity tends to influence blood unfavorably pressure and the right kind of exercise, approached sensibly, favorably influences the ratio of HDLLDL I hasten to add cholesterol. that somehow or other stress seems to lurk in the lives of many people. Dont ignore it. If I Have Heart Disease? The presence of heart disease does not mean a person should not exercise. Even when a person recovers adequately from a recognized heart attack, many heart specialists advocate a exercise program. supervised In addition, many, people who engage in vigorous physical activity are found to have had a heart attack at some time in the past. Coronary artery disease is an Even a unpredictable disease. small hemorrhage under a deposit may cause it to swell and suddenly narrow or obstruct a previously open artery.
