TODAYS VALENTINE IX THE LAST generation, television has taken the place of books for the majority of our young people. it hasn't been a good thing. A TV show will never replace the book as an educational tool. But our jouth has become lazy, k so much eas-loo- at the box than it is to lead a book. That's why it's an extra pleasure to give Today's Valentine to Diane Evans, daughter of Dr. Burtis and Jan Evans. Diane has read more than 1.000 books , . . and she's only in the second grade. She read 250 books in the first giade, and more than 800 books this year. And good books, too. A fine feat . . . surely she's the champion bookreader of her age in the state. And a Valentine to ou, Diane. Keep it up. SAM, THE SAD CYNIC, SAYS: A Utah senior has a prob'em.
