Study Examines Impact of IPP on Local Economies U The Intermountain Power Projects probable socioeconomic impact on Nephi, Fillmore, Delta and other southwestern Utah towns is the subject of a study nearing completion at the University of Utah Bureau of Economic and Business who heads the study. A similar BEBR study completed earlier this year explains how the retail trade and service sectors of five Utah towns are affected by energy development Kesearch. Business Connie Wilkinson, BEBR research analyst, says the study will project retail opportunities that are likely to occur while the power plant is under construction and after it begins operating in the late 980s. The study, scheduled for completion later (his month, will describe how the retail trade and service sectors of Utah towns in the area are likely to be affected by IPP. Community officials are asked to describe the positive and negative impact of IPP thus far and what challenges they anticipate in the future, says Wilkinson, The and place. part-tim- between 1974and 1980. The IPP study, requested by the Small Center in the Development Graduate School of Business, includes telephone interviews with homeowners in Nephi, Delta and Fillmore. In addition to offering suggestions for improving retail services in their towns, respondents report where they shop and why, and evaluate the services they receive. They rate the retail services in their community on a scale ranging from excellent to poor, have the opportunity to comment on what services they like, and offer suggestions on what additional kinds of stores and services their town needs," OF THE Bond proposal to be presented to voters for new Fillmore hospital Attention!! 1 The Public Defender position in Washington County, like that in Millard, is e although it pays $19,000 per year, plus certain defense related expenses.

YOUR HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE Fillmore doctors. David I imhurg and Brent Jackson, realizing that the wrestling seasons is nearing submitted the following article "The Effect of Rapid Weight Loss on Physiological Functions in Wrestlers, for publication to enlighten our w restlers on one health aspect of wrestling. The article was written by Michael E. Houston, PhD; Donald A. Marrin; Howard J. Green, PhD; and James A. Thomson, PhD, and published in The Physician and Sportsmedicine." In brief: To assess the effects of rapid reduction, four university weight wrestlers decreased their body weight period by food by 8 over a four-daintake reductions. and liquid in decreases muscle Significant glycogen concentration and dynamic strength, but not aerobic or anaerobic y capacity, accompanied weight loss. A three-hou- r rehydration period did not levels or strength glycogen improve performance. These results suggest that rapid weight reduction may impair wrestling performance. in classifications weight Although wrestling have been established to match competitors according to body weight, it is common practice for wrestlers to lose up to lOfo or more of body weight over several days, ostensibly to meet a smaller and weaker opponent. Weight loss before competition is generally accomplished by reducing food and water intake, and in the acute by final stages, dehydration employing thermal andor exercise stress. These rapid weight-los- s practices, which times be repeated many during the may season, have been sharply criticized because they impair health and performance. For example, reductions in food energy intake that resulted in body weight losses of up to 10, or up io I6r were associated with decrement in maximum oxygen uptake. Dehydration alone has been shown to isometric decrease maximal strength. Moreover, urinary profiles of wrestlers at show that many the time of weigh-icompetitors are dehydrated. The purpose of this experiment was to investigatetheeffectsof a reduction in body weight on standard physiological measures and on muscle energy supplies in college wrestlers. To more closely separate the effects of food and liquid intake reduction, only food energy intake was reduced in the first 48 hours and both food energy and fluid intake were reduced in the next 48 r hours. The effects of a rehydration period were also studied. Methods n three-hou- wrestlers, Four Olympic freestyle members of the University of Waterloo (Ontario) wrestling team, volunteered to participate in this experiment after being informed of the nature and risks of Ihe procedures involved and after signing an approved consent form. Their mean age was 23.3 years (range 19 to 30). This experiment took place during the first week of February, when Ihe subjects had been training and competing for four months. Throughout the experiment, the subjects carefully recorded the quantities of all foods eaten using food diaries; these were subsequently analyzed for energy content by a nutritionist. During the five days preceding the experiment, the nude body weight, food energy, and fluid imake were monitored daily in order to establish mean baseline values. Following an overnight fast the subjects reported to the lab for control testing at 9 a.m. on the first day of the experiment. At this time a muscle biopsy was taken and physiological testing was conducted. The subjects were then instructed to reduce their energy intake to 33 ol the value. This was accomplished by a balanced reduction in the quantityof foods eaten from each of the four food groups; meat, milk and milk products, grains, and fruit and vegetables. Forty-eighours later, a second muscle biopsy was obtained and physiological testing was repeated to produce values. I or the next 24 hours, the subjects maintained their reduced energy intake and they were asked to reduce their fluid intake by two thirds. For the final 24 hours of the weight reduction the subjects further reduced their food intake and eliminated fluid intake. At 5 p.m. on the third day of weight reduction, we conducted physiological testing; this was necessary to avoid performing these tests twice on the next day. At 9a.m. on the limit day, the subjects reported to the lab (or a third muscle biopsy. They were men instructed to rehydrate and consume foods as fey simple, carbohydrate-ricwould after a weigh-ibefore a wresii ng match. h Three hours later muscle biopsy samp ' were obtained and physiological test mg a1 conducted to produce data on rehydra; .or. Nine days later, physiological testing j repeated to provide postcontrol value'. for muscle biopsies and physiologist, testing of the subjects was the same over ti.c experimental period. Wrestling (raining ai a reduced level was performed for the tit' three days of the weight loss period so t ha: the daily energy expenditure resulting iron' wrestling training and physiological resting would approximate a typical period More a w restling competition. Muscle samples were obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle of the right thigh using the needle technique. Since Olympic freestyle wrestling is characterized bv such actions as holding a bent knee base, takedowns, and lifting and raising the bs'dy from a lowered ' position, it hypothesized that the vastus lateralis muscle would be representative ol those one-le- muscles prominently involved in wrestling performance. The physiological tests were selected to measure aerobic and ancrobic work capacity and dynamic strength. VO, max was determined during constant-speetreadmill running. Ancrobic capacity was assessed by measuring the run time to exhaustion on a treadmill ai 8 mph and a 20o grade. Dynamic strength ol the knee extensor muscles of the right leg was measured. Three velocities (30 . 180 , and 300 per second) were used and the torque was recorded. Results During the 48 hours ol weight loss the subjects reduced their food energy intake by 66'o. which resulted in a 2.2" o decrease in body weight. In the next 48 hours, mean lood energy intake was only l6"'o ol normal (baseline) and lluid intake was markedly reduced. This resulted in a further decrease in body weight of 4.7"0. Thus, the body was 8 weight ol the wrestlers at weigh-iless than their baseline weight. During ihe three-hour ihe period rehydration combination of lood and Hind intake resulted m a 3. 6 increase in body weight Muscle glycogen concentration was 29 " lower alter the lirst 48 hours ol weigh) reduction. The subsequent period ol tood and fluid restriction resulted in a lurihcr mean decrease of 25 in muscle glycogen level. Although the individual muscle glycogen concent rai ions were laigcr alter the rehydr ion period, compared to 48 hours after food reduction, this was not statistically significant.
