The appropriate pomp and circumstance celebrate a dream come true for the Utah Symphony and its conductor for 32 years, Maurice Abravanel. When the orchestra opens its 40th season September 14 and IS with concerts inaugurating the sparkling new S10 million Symphony Hall, it will be performing for the first time in its own concert hall. The gala inaugural concerts, expected to attract visitors and music critics from throughout the United States, will be conducted by Stanislaw Sktowacsewski, who retired this year as music director of the Minnesota Orchestra after 19 years conin that position. The Polish-bor- n ductor, former director of the Warsaw National Philharmonic, made his American debut with the Cleveland Orchestra in 1958.

But the maestro will be present nonetheless to share in the celebration of the September 14 concert as an enthusiastic member of the audience. , Last facility of the Arts Complex to be a Symphwy Hall was inaugurated, designed by the Salt Lake architectural firm of Fowler, Ferguson, Kingston and Ruben. With a seating capacity of 2800 in three tiers, the hall is 160 feet long, 90 feet wide and 55 feet high. Its rectangular shape is characteristic of the the worlds finest symphony halls Musikvereinssaal in Vienna, Concert-gebouin Amsterdam and Symphony Hall in Boston. The hall is designed to provide an environment of acoustical excellence, thanks to acoustical consultant Dr. Cyril M. Harris who was also responsible for the superior acoustics of the Avery Fisher Hall in Lincoln Center, home of the New York Philharmonic, and the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. The hall's exterior is a massive rectangle of glass and Claybourne brick, similar in hue to the masonry of the Mormon Temple and other building on historic Temple Square standing cater corner to the Arts Center. Facing east to the Wasatch Mountains, the entry doors are set in 580 square feet of paneled window. Made especially in England, the expanse of glass becomes a kaleidoscope reflecting the Temple spires, the gushing water from the Plaza fountain, the drifting doudscape. Inside a four-stor- y lobby is crowned with an oaken ceiling. Symphony Hall is adorned with more than 12,000 square feet of gleaming gold leaf in the lobby and in the concert hall. The carpeting and upholstered seats are in dark forest green, a verdant contrast to the six 16x16 foot crystal and brass chandeliers. newly-appoint- ed g This expanse of glass becomes a kaleidoscope reflecting the Salt Lake Temple spires and other buildings on Temple Square.

The Utah Lung Association, the Christmas Seal People, think this may reflect a changing lifestyle by Americans concerned for their health. Citing figures recently released by the tobacco industry, ULA Executive Director Franklin K. Brough noted a decrease of nearly 172 million packs taxed from July 1978 through June 1979, compared to the previous year. Actual figures, from a regular report of the Tobacco Tax Council, were 28,771,428,000 for 1978-7- 9 and 28.942,208,-00- 0 An for 1977-7industry supported organization, the council regularly reports total consumption of tobacco products based on tax receipts. Brough said the decline, 8. coupled with federal reports of the lowest per capita cigarette consumption in 20 years, could reflect concern for health signals by mass devotion to diet, jogging and even roller skating. 1 "After all, not smoking best way to avoid lung disease, Brough said. Brough added that he hoped the new figures also would serve as a tobacco warning to spokesmen that rising sales figures no longer can be used to obscure mounting concern about the cigarettes share in disease, death and health costs. "By accusing antiadvocates of smoking build walls to trying between smokers and nonsmokers or of being do gooders, tobacco interests are attempting to combat both a dramatic change in the nations smoking habits, and the indisputable evidence that smoking kills, he said. Only 33 percent of adult Americans now smoke cigarettes, compared to 42 percent in 19M, Brough said. The drop has been greatest for men, from 51 to 38 percent. Theres even heartening evidence that the rate at which teenagers are cajoled into the cigarette habit is is the n at shockingly early ages. Brough said persuading young children never to take up the cigarette habit is a major priority of the Utah Lung Association, that and a special Wth tt tMf, r UH CknUMt 84 E I 'S CAR SEATS CAN PREVENT INJURIES! ...SAVE LIVES! beginning to decline, although far too many children still smoke, and Ifort Ms When your child nm in crying with cut or scrape, 4o you have the proper things on hand to dean and bandage?

The Division of Wildlife Resources has announced plans to treat Johnson Reservoir in Sevier County. The chemical treatment will remove growing numbers of Utah chub, redside shiners and Utah suckers, which have been detrimental to the sport fishery there. The reservoir' will be closed following the Sep3 tember treatment and will remain closed during the 1980 fishing season. Chris Chaffin, Division information officer in Cedar City, said competition from these fish has caused poor trout growth. 11-1- flm FDiEDEtm only $900 PER DAY September is RINSENVAC Carpet Cleaning Month And that means extra savings for you' Because when you rent now you tf save now with our tow rental rates and as an extra bonus get a coupon for a free RINSENVAC rental later 14-in- Pfcrtnscy fishing, said Chaffin, shallow bay should be fine below this section.
