The National Association of Counties (NACo) is the only national organization representing more than 3,100 county governments in the United States. In 1935 during the Great Depression, county officials from all parts of the nation banded together to form NACo. They were moved by a desire to have a voice in Washington, D.C., and to ensure that the county government message was heard and understood in the White House and halls of Congress. Today, NACo has headquarters on Capitol Hill and is a lobbying organization. It is the county equivalent of the National Governors Association and the League of Cities and Towns. full-servi- ce You love him like a mother, you plead, whine, and beg, but Spot just wont sit or stay.

The granddaughter of Lou Ruckman of Magna, she was introduced to wheelchair racing by a friend, John Brewer, as they were playing tennis. He now trains Ruckman, and, as a quadraplegic, raced for the Olympics in Korea, said Ruckman. wheelchair Hardy, an racer as Ruckman puts it, wheelchair races by choice. He used to foot race, but has chosen wheels over feet to avoid jarring his knees on the pavement. Running races is hard on my body; it abused my knees, he said. Wheelchair users are racing and participating in other sports more frequently today than in the past. It is a matter of staying in shape as much as to have fun, Ruckman said. There are three women and about eight men who wheelchair race in the Salt LakeOgden area, Hardy said. Ruckman harrasses Hardy about his legs. She considers them a hinderance to his performance. Because he can use his legs, his arms dont get the same workout as a wheelchair users arms. Therefore, when he races, he carries more muscle weight than he uses to propel him along in the wheel chair. However, he trains often with Ruckman, and though she chides him, she is smiling and praises his performance. Hardys time in the Demetrio Cabanillas Magna Classic 10K Race was 18:12. Ruckman was right behind him at 18:25. The Magna Classic was fun but not an honest race for them, they said. It was nothing, it was all downhill, said Ruckman, who is training for a in Virginia. An honest race is a flat race, Hardy said. With more people getting involved in wheelchair sports, technology must respond to meet their needs. The racers use specially designed chairs on three wheels. The front wheel is steered like a bicycles front wheel, complete with hand brakes. They also use special gloves to protect their hands. The gloves have a rubber pad attached to the palm to help grip the wheel which lasts approximateIts almost a science, ly 24 miles. Ruckman said of the equipment and techniques she uses to race. Ruckman and Hardy are students at the University of Utah where and studies ne is a graduate student in medical school. 50-mi- SBa Vl&TBZH FAMILY together often. e able-bodi- ed mites UTAHS 4970 SO STM CAST MURRAY 7238 W 3900 SO, MAGF4A 40 WEST 2ND NORTH BOUKTVUL 10870 SO 7TH EAST, SANDY 3988 WEST 8200 80.
