Jim Dykman, a Utah archaeologist for the Utah State Historical Society, is the guest speaker. He has worked as an archaeologist since 1974 in Utah. Some of the most varied and rich prehistoric culture in the U.S. is contained in Utah. Special emphasis will be on the Anasazi, Utc and historical and industrial archaeology. Anasazi, a Navajo name for the Ancient Ones," is a culture sequence that is continuous but can be divided into successive stages of development, called horizons. In Self-respe- ct The earliest covers a period from prc A.D. 1, called the basket makers, to the present, who are called the Pueblo. The Anasazi were basically a farming group. The Ute were considered gatherers and hunters. These two groups of people lived in Utah. They arc a part of our history and development. This program will be presented with slides and artifacts that show the varied cultures and some of the contributions that these cultures have given us. This presentation is by the Utah Humanities Council and the Ml Pleasant Library. This program is free of charge and open to everyone. Obituaries Sandie Sandie D.

Depending on model, R C airplanes may fly from 10 mph to speeds of over 200 mph. At these speeds they arc out of sight before they are beyond radio control. Radio controlled models can be flown from any smooth surface that is asfree of obstructions-concrc- te, phalt, or even short cut grass. Many excellent trainers may be purchased, complete with radio and engine for about $300, Dcmont added. Ron Collard of Ftn.
