Political infringement the Editor: I went to the annual Manti Miracle Pageant - a spiritual event in the LDS Church. Its something I attend every couple of years, and has come to be of some importance to me. Yet this year, I was appalled by the whole To thing. When I drove up to the Manti Temple, JoeCannons balloon was in the yard! I couldnt believe the gall the nerve! - it took for Joe to take a spiritual event and twist it into -- the ugliness of a political ploy. Especially since Joe is a high councilor. Im sorry, Im not one who likes to raise a fuss, but I cannot believe what happened. Not only does it infringe on the division of church and state, but Cannon, a church official, knowingly used an LDS event for his own ends. If ever I would have supported Joe for Senate, I most certainly wont now. Lenise Herman American Fork, Utah It was a July 24th adventure that would take the group on a high mountain hike from Philadelphia Flat in Ephraim Canyon to the Nielson cabin in the North Fork of Manti Canyon.

Some of the hike was easy going; sometimesharder, through brush and rocks. At about the halfway point, as Russell and David, a short distance from the others, crossed a somewhat steep inclined, David slipped and wenthead-over-heel- s through the brush for perhaps 20 feet. scouts, supported David in a carry and the descent down the mountain began. Soon after leaving the group, Nadean encountered the Robert Tibbs family, also on a holiday outing, coming up a road in their pickup. David was lifted into the back of the truck and made as comfortable as possible. Upon reaching Yearns, an ambulance was called via radio. The ambulance and the pickup bearing David met at the bottom two-ma- n of the canyon. David was transported to the Gunnison Valley Hospital for treatmentand then, still by ambulance, to the Primary Childrens Medical Center. I le'shome now, new crutches and well on his way to recovery. As for the other members of the party, they continued on to the Nielson cabin more subdued than when they left Philadelphia Flat earlier on the 24th. running. cool was David.
