Show Friday Forum Features Editorial Comment As announced in last weeks paper, a Boosters Club has been formed to raise funds to purchase uniforms for the Manti Templars wrestling team. The Boosters have obtained several items which will be raffled off following a ticket sale. The items being raffled include two prime pigs and two fat lambs, ten turkeys and two quality jackets manufactured by Pacific Trail Sportswear. We laud the efforts of this group and encourage the support of the citizenry in helping them reach their goal. Were not so happy, however, that such a project is necessary. Since weve been here, we cant remember such a project being necessary for either football or basketball uniforms. W'hy then wrestling? The answer to that question is probably complex. In the first place, it is recognized that our high school simply does not have enough financing to support all the activities which they would like to. Secondly, in the past there has been little support for some of the minor programs in the school, despite the fact that there are virtually as many participants in wrestling as in either football or basketball. This is not to demean those two sports or cast criticism on school authorities, but only to suggest that now that our wrestling team has reached the stature where it must be reckoned with on a state level, that we, as fans support them to the same extent we do the other teams. We also suggest that in allocating funds for various activities, those in budget-makinroles, consider strongly giving all the support possible to all the activities in the schools. Meanwhile, when a wrestler approaches you to buy a ticket to help them buy uniforms, invest more than you think you should. Editor: The long duration of the coal miner strike, which is creating major crises in many large industries, should cause all of us who profess to be good, local American citizens to pause and soberly consider present conditions in the United States and in just what direction we are President J. Marvin Higbee meet from time to time at different places on our campus, I am impressed with the variation that I see in the age levels of the students on our campus. Particularly am 1 pleased to see an abundance of senior citizens who are not only taking classes at Snow College, but who are assisting in many significant ways with our educational processes. This is particularly pleasing to me in view of our current approaches in education, to make learning experiences available to people at all age levels. People of retirement age, or younger (in their 40s and 50s), can not only gain great satisfaction in continuing their education, but chances are excellent that they are also improving their employment and advancement opportunities. As bv some vocal mine leaders that miners would refuse to work even under a presidential order and that if the National Guard were sent in there would be very serious trouble leads me to believe that the strike is revolution. Acts of violence against independent mines and repeated threats of more violence if independent mines are not closed is insurrection and mob violence in my book. It is most interesting to note that when acts of violence and destruction such as have been performed by some miners are commited by teenage kids, we label it vandalism by hoodlums, but when it is performed by supposedly adult coal miners, it is in the interest of the miners. What twisted thinking we are capable of! It appears to me that w e have reached the point where the tail is wagging the dog. When one small segment of our society can control affairs to the place where widespread crises are oceuring in large segments of society and in many major industries, and can even intimidate the President of the United States to the point where he fears to invoke accepted legal procedures, we are in for bad trouble. There is reason in most things if reasonable people are involved. I seriously doubt that rank and file miners are in harmony with existing refusal of mine union leaders to accept reasonable terms. Why are these rank and file members not intelligent enough to assert themselves and remove radical, unreasonable leaders who refuse to accept a sensible settlement? American society is allowing its best interest to be undermined by vicious, vocal minorities. Wake up, Americans, before the hour is too late, if such be not already the case! g bv going. The assertion I Where we have thought of Snow College in jears past as primarily a place for younger people, it appears as though our comprehensive community college idea is catching on. People are viewing education as a significant way to enrich their lives and honestly a way by which they can stay abreast of the and modern world in which we live. g Child Development G. Hugh Allred, Professor of Child Development and Mar- riage and Family Counseling at BYU, will be the Friday Forum speaker on March 3rd. The title of his talk will be The Hidden Child Within: Coping With Conflict. Mr. Allred was born in Alberta, Canada, but now resides in Pleasant Grove, Utah. He attended the Universities of Oregon, Alberta, Yale and BYU where he received his and degrees in Counseling and Educational Home by Dr. Daryl J. McCarty Executive Secretary Utah Education Association schools. One of the reasons cited most frequently for cheating by youngsters is pressure from parents. Some parents simply wont accept low grades, an article on the survey states. They may punish their children physically for failing to make high marks, or deprive them of some special privilege. Some parents even attach a dollars and cents' price tag to good grades. Of course, there are other important causes of cheating. Many students apparently cheat to get the high grades they see as necessary to get into the college they choose. Its difficult for many stu- - dents to refuse aid to a friend. Such accessories may see giving test answers as helping a friend rather than cheating. One teacher said most students dont see cheating as wrong, and this alarms her. Commenting on the survey, an educational psychologist. Dr. Mark Weatherly, said: Parents can be extremely important in efforts to prevent cheating. Planned talks by school personnel presented at PTA meetings or other forums could be an effective way of letting parents know their children are collectively practicing dishonesty in the classroom. Parents should leave no doubt in their childrens minds that they would prefer honorable failure to passing by dishonorable means. Dr. Westerly added that the child who is taught at lower school levels why he should not cheat and then sees his or her parents perform honestly is far less likely to consider cheating. Psychology, His- tory, Political Science and Language. He has been an elders quorum president, served in the bishopric, and was a member of the Salt Lake Mormon Tabernacle Choir for over eight years. He is presently a High Priest group leader. He has taught many university courses and has had experience in the counseling field. Mr. Allred also has several publications, including How To Strengthen Your Marriage and Family and Mission For Mother: Guiding the Child. He is married to the former Carolyn Crapo and they have five children, two boys and three girls. wide-sprea- Cheating, according to one teacher, is a school problem that has reached epidemic proportions.

Seems that he is just following in his dads footsteps. His father, Jerry, also won the state championship when he was in high school. Like father, like son.
