The three-da- y conference, cosponsored by the University of Utah, included 36 scientists from across the country who are experts on the problems of climate or lake level fluctuations. They concluded that planners and managers could use an elevation of 4,217 or 4,218 feet as a maximum level for planning purposes. As for April 1, the lake had reached a level of 4,209.55 feet, with the spring melt yet to come. Were not predicting that the lake will get that high anytime soon, says Dr. Paul A. Kay, U of U professor of geography and coordinator of the conference. Some of the researchers felt tha level is much too high, that you would need dikes at 4,212 feet. But 8 the consensus was that feet was the level beyond which it is nearly inconceivable that the lake will rise in the next 50 to 100 years. Planners should consider it in estimating what the impact of the lake will be. The historic maximum for the lake is 4,211 feet, a level reached in 1873. As of April 1, 1985 the lake was as high as its been since 1878, he says. If it exceeds the historic maximum this year, there is nothing in the historic record to tell us how long it will stay that high or what the environmental impact will be. Scientists agreed that they did not know if the lake would reach 4,217 feet, when it might reach that level, how long it would stay at that level or how those levels would affect the environment. Although we have some very good operational models predicting probabilities up to a year ahead of time and those models are useful in suggesting problems for long-terplanning, we still need a tremendous amount of data, says Kay. il ft Hm a better understanding what the lake has done in the past sti that we could better assess what it might do in the future. of researchers who A variety participated in the conference would be interested in conducting such research, he says. The real problem is funding. A volume of conference the containing proceedings scientists recommendations will be available by mid-MaKay hopes to have them in the hands of the key people in the state by the state legislatures next session. The legislature plans to spend nearly $90 million on lake control projects and if even 1 percent of that went into research, we would have crucial information for planners, he says. Right now scientists are frustrated because people ask us what to do about the lake, but were missing basic data about what happened in the near geologic past. SLANG -- , libroy surpc."dj for week moratorium on fines will be in effect at all Salt Lake County libraries during National Library Week, April A You gummsho hear some of the language that rebounds off the walls of todays schools. Its gnarly to say the least and if you dont get it your a dork or maybe even a squid. Awesome is out and stoked is in and again you have to be a linquist to keep up with the jargon that comes tumbling from the lips and rolls rapidly off the tongue of todays groovy teenager. The in guys and chicks like to lay the slang on you in copious amounts to achieve a somewhat startling effect, and if your one of the good old boys you must know the lingo. You used to be able to say be coolwhen you wanted some one to take it easy, but now you say chill out. I guess its all a matter of degree, but if you say cold thats just the opposite cause to be cool is good but cold is bad. If you get too far out with the terminology, your rents (parents) may confine you to your crib, (home) which is slang for being grounded, and its hard to get stoked (psyched) when your in the crib. If you cut a class its called bail and if your bookn thru the halls, your you going very fast. If you fail a test you have flaked it, but if you full-o- n world of have done the best possible or perfect, and so it goes in the teen-ag- e slang. , Now the world of sports has its own particular terms of endearment as does every other realm, and again every little kingdom has its key words. If you hang around long enough, you can pick up on most of it, at least enough to kick back (relax). 15-2- 0. The Library Board of Directors moratorium approved the week-lon- g during their meeting on Wednesday, March 27. The theme of this years National Library Week is A Nation of Readers. It is hoped that waiving fines will encourage people of all ages to fully use the. librarys resources and to truly become a Nation of Readers. The Library Board felt the action was especially appropriate because of the financial hardships being experienced by many of the countys unemployed residents. The last moratorium on fines was declared in April 1978. To take advantage of this rare opportunity, simply locate library materials and return them to the nearest Salt Lake County library. No overdue fines will be charged. For further information, call your Salt Lake County Library System, evaporation, snow pack, etc. to fit into operational models for predicting lake levels, he says. Because funding for some of that data collection is tenuous, there is a . possibility necessary information will not be collected. It is inconceivable that flood planning and water resource management could occur without that data, says (943-463- 943-INF- Kay. In athletics, those in the know, understand that a jock is an athlete, a stud is a good athlete and the window is the back board. The man is the coach, who usually need to mellow up (calm down) if he wants to be considered radical (cool) byhisplayers. Horses are good athletes and the troops are the team whereas the zebras are the officials who are totally (absolutely) right and jerks to boot . (also). So, teenspeak abounds these days where ever you go and if you want to be a homeboy or homegirl (friend) you had better learn at least a few lines. If you dont you wont know Sup (whats up) and it may be constant tamale time (embarrassment). ' As you are learning your new language, you need to remember that slang sometimes has different meanings in different areas of the country and a term may have another meaning in another clime than it does in your home town. So be careful how you chief (address) people or they may think your a squid (geek). You also need to remember that if something is hot it is also cool, but it is not cold, but could still be rad. Got it ? me neither. Its enough to make you drive the porcelain bus (throw ip). Lets go back to awesome. says: "I think everyone should go to college to get a degree and then spend six months on the fringes of a high school. Then they would really be educated. SIMONS SAYS: Some kids go to high school and take a little English, a little Math, some Science, a few wheel covers and some hub caps. SIMONS Scientists say soft drinks are safe The scientists also recommended the establishment of a Great Salt Lake Basin Instrumentation Initiative that would insure the continued and expanded collection of data. Such an initiative would put out more instruments to measure various factors such as precipitation and evaporation. Kay notes that any predictions for lake levels and effects must be based on how the lake has acted in the past. participants recommended that researchers obtain a full and careful record of the lake and the local environment of the ' last 100 to 5,000 years. Such a record, he says, could be obtained by analyzing sediment cores from the lake and tree rings in the Great Salt Lake Basin. Sediment cores would provide information on the lake volume while tree rings would offer data on local growing conditions through the years. If we had a record of the lake volume and climate we could correlate that information and extend our period of analysis, says It wouldnt really help us Kay. better predict lake levels, but it Salt Lake City Soft drinks are safe and have a legitimate place in the American diet, according to Dr. Manfred Kroger and Dr. Vala Jean Stults, who were in Salt Lake City today representing the National Soft Drink Association. Kroger is professor of Food Science at the Pennsylvania State University. Stults is assistant professor of Foods and Nutrition at Whittier College. Both were speaking here today to clarify popular misunderstandings about the safety of soft drink ingredients, and to describe their role in the American diet. The proper place for soft drinks is as an addition to a balanced diet ; soft are drinks pure refreshment products and that is how they are ; promoted, Kroger said. His comments focused on soft drink ingredients that have been . criticized in recent years without reliance on all the facts. Soft drinks contain levels of sugar comparable to those in fruit juices, such as orange juice and pineapple LIGHT FLANNEL LINED juice. The sugars in soft drinks are the same as the principal sugars in fruits. The source, natural, or commercial, is immaterial to our bodies, he said. Regarding a saccharin, non-calor- ic sweetner used in some diet soft drinks, Kroger pointed' out that saccharin has been used safely for more than 80 years. He also cited an American Council on Science and Health report that there is no evidence linking saccharin with cancer or any other disease in humans. The sweetener aspartame is now being used in many diet soft drinks after years of extensive safety testing. This new sweetener is also known by its trade name, NutraSweet. Krogers final remarks concerned an important flavoring ingredient added to some soft drinks caffeine. Caffeine is found in a number of plants including coffee beans, tea leaves, kola nuts and cocoa beans. Its level in cola and pepper-typ- e soft drinks is much less than that found in freshly brewed coffee. low-calor- ie Windproof! Rainproof! ACE, mmm ,na ATTENTION: Sport Fan. Ilikcrt. Do W alker.

Stults' remarks concerned what she calledbuzz words. There are no such things as junk food or she contended. empty calories, We choose to make healthful use or junk use of foods, neither of which is the fault of the food person. All foods contain some nutrients. Although ones diet may be adequate or inadequate, no single food can be classified as good or bad. Stults discussed the role of beverages in our diet, including their importance as sources of an essential nutrient water. She cited research among children aged 5 to 18 which showed that of the six most frequently consumed beverages milk, tea, carbonated beverages, sweetened drinks, fruit juices and coffee milk is the most popular beverage overall. Thrers, nothing wrong with drinking a soft drink, she said. Soft drinks provide a refreshing source of needed liquids. Most important, soft drinks are safe.
