Show 4 THE GREEN SHEET Thursday, February 7, 1985 In State Legislature - limelight Shines On Education SALT LAKE. A sense or urgency has begun to pervade the Utah Legislature, which reached the halfsession Monway point of its y day. More than half the work remains to be done, legislative leaders said. Nearly 800 bills and resolutions have been introduced in the House and Senate, but less than a dozen have been sent on to Gov. Norm Bangerter to be signed into law. Bangerter, who campaigned on a no tax hike platform, saw a threatened veto instrumental in the defeat of Rep. Lloyd Frandsens proincrease in the tax posed eight-cent- s on cigarettes. A compromise has been proposed at six percent, and awaits further debate. While flooding continues to be a key item for legislators, the spotlight has shifted to education. On Friday, legislatuve leaders indicated they would likely increase funding by about $76 million. Thats $10 million less than requested by Gov. Norm Bangerter, and about $21 less than proposed by former Gov. Scott Matheson. The gap between Bangerters request and the final recommendations could close to about $5 million, however. The $76 million figure is at best tentative, leaders admit. Sen. Dix H. McMullin, majority whip, said Friday that a number of proposals are being discussed, the most conservative calling for a 10.7 percent increase - 3.5 percent for growth in enrollm ent and 7.2 percent for the basic program, including a 5.3 percent hike in the Weighted Pupil Unit, the amount recommended by the governor. The increase in the WPU traditionally translates into the amount teacher salaries are raised in most districts. Legislators have not yet Parked Cars, Snowy Walks Are Problems MAGNA. Cars parked on the streets and uncleaned sidewalks are again causing problems for the Salt Lake County law enforcement division here. Cpl. Ron Wall said snowplows cannot operate effectively in many of the subdivisions because of vehicles parked on the street, and deputies are now stepping up action on those complaints in order to maintain a free flow of traffic. Owners of cars parked on the streets will be given citations, he added and their cars will be towed away to an impound lot. In addition many complaints have been registered about walks that are not cleared of snow. By county ordinance residents must have the snow removed one hour after a storm, or by 8 oclock in the morning if the storm has occurred during the night. On the other side of the ledger, Cpl. Wall noted, unseasonably cold weather seemed to be responsible for a drop in crime statistics during the past week. There were seven thefts, three each in the alarm calls and assault categories, two each in the disturbance of the peace and traffic accident division and one each in vandalism, burglary, drunk driving, minor in a tavern and civil problems. Of the total 47 calls processed, six arrests were made, including three juveniles and three adults. Top Hillsdale Reflections Entries Told GRANGER.

After than it was all Judge. But Tooele had played well enough in that first half to impress Judge Coach Jim Yerkovich. They are much improved and very quick, he noted. What the Buffs couldnt stop was Richard Holmes who finished with 27 points on 7x15 from the floor and 13x16 from the charity stripe. He also hauled down 13 rebounds. His 23rd point broke Mary Giovachinnis career scoring record, with Holmes now having 1,072 in his four years. Tom Lytle had foul problems, but in the less than two quarters of action he saw, hauled down 11 rebounds. The scoring normally accorded to Lytle went to Danny DelPorto with 12 and Paul Bruns with 14. Tony Cordova and Veltri played the pressing, trapping Buffs with only nine turnovers. Judge has been nicked this week with the flu bug, making the trip to West all the more critical.

I Coaches Sought The Lancers, much to Grays dismay, tried to get into a running game with the Eagles and it didnt work. They arent that much better than we are, the Lancer mentor said, but we have to play much more intelligently to have a shot at them. Mike Wilding was the lone Lancer to succeed offensively, scoring mmore than half of his teams points, 17 (7, 3x5). Curt Condie added 10 (1, 8x12), taking advantage of some Skyline foul problems. The loss left the Lancers at 3 in Region Three play, while the Eagles 46-2- 0. 3495 West 3500 South I Kearns scoring was led by Jeff Pace with 12 points, hitting 6x8 from the field. John Hatch was hobbled by a badly sprained ankle and had only six points. Lancers conclude the first half of league play tomorrow (Friday) at Granite. The winless Farmers may be just the tonic the Lancers need after be3 ing bombed Friday by Skyline on the Lancer court. The league leaders took full advantage of Grangers lack of size and outside shooting, grabbing completed control of the contest in the first period when the Lancers were limited to a paltry two points while Cottonwood was scoring 10 behind the outside shooting of Ron Hunt and Dave Christensen, who have not been the big guns for the Eagles this season. 30-1- 2 4. 2 in scoring with 15 points with Donny Tapp chipping in 13, Kevin Rice 10 and Todd Crow nine. the visitors had run By half-tim- e and Coach their edge out to Paul Jeppsen called off the dogs in the third period, which still ended pee-we- 56-3- South Kearns PTA Plans Founders Day 18-1- Coach Ed Gray and his Granger high cage squad will be hoping to climb back into the Region Three race for state when the GRANGER. f 11 |
