He knew that his team was in for a real battle.

The Salt Lake Amateur Hockey Association has been in existence since 1975. In those 12 years, the league has grown from seven to 18 high school teams and is made up 750 members ranging from age five to 62. But, though it has grown, tolks at the SLAHA say it is a continuing challenge to keep the organization strong. SLAHA chairman of the high school division, Mike Holmes, noted that enrollment at the junior and senior high school levels has declin-- ' ed in recent years That's a trend they would to turn around.

It suggested a council to legislate, and one elected official for the executive, a mayor for the county. Herbert also said the number of elected officials should be reduced to the county sheriff, auditor and attorney. The others currently elected, such as the assessor, recorder and surveyor, should be appointed by the executive. Elect lor representation, Herbert noted, and appoint for expertise. The commission form of government is very strange." said County Commissioner Dave Watson. The same official who sets policy also administers budget, creating confusion because each commissioner becomes biased toward funding his programs instead of others. In Salt Lake County. Commissioner Bart Barker is responsible for ad- ministrative services; Commis- sioner Mike Stewart controls human services and Watson administers public works. Salt Lake County has the additional problem of commissioners overseeing both countywide and municipal budgets, he said. Watson called for the creation of a single executive who could set clear policy for the county. "The three-perso- n commission should be reevaluated, Watson noted. "It has outlived its usefulness. The CityCounty Consolidated Reports findings, released to the commissioners Monday, were also discussed at the seminar. The report considering the melding of Salt Lake City and County decided against consolidation because the disadvantages outweighed the benefits, said Roger Black, task force member. Consolidation tends to militate against community values, Black said. The sense of community identity plays a vital role in quality of life, he said, because each community places special value on certain amenities. "Bigger is not always better, Black pointed out, saying that smaller governments respond better to residents needs. Existing financial commitments further complicated the consolidation issue. Black noted the porblem of making a community, which may have chosen to pay for service delivery, spend funds to bring another area up to the same standard. Consolidation would also threaten representation, Black said. If we trade 30 council members for seven county council members, can we really say county representation has improved? Black also discussed the benefits of consolidation the report considered. Consolidation would reduce the duplication of services caused by having more than one government entity. "There are 12 (fire) chiefs in the valley, Black said. "Theres a little more chiefing than is necessary. Consolidation would help solve the problem of diminished quality because of boundary-spanninproblems, such as crime.

University of Utah Director of the Center for Public Affairs Ted Herbert discussed the Change in Form of Government Report which was submitted to the commissioners Monday. The report considered how the county could solve the problems facing it. Herbert first described several problems created by the governments present format. He said the county suffers from a lack of coordination and policy leadership. The commissioners wear both legislative and executive hats, making it difficult to determine who is the policy spokesperson. In addition, residents of unincorporated areas cannot control their municipal services because one official represents both an incorporated and unincorporated area. City residents are represented only by a commissioner, he said. Also, one commissioner must deal with both countywide problems and municipal service questions. And because the powers are shared, no one has definite responsibility, Herbert said. Under the current system the county also has a revenue problem, he said. The county can levy property and sales tax, but unlike cities it cannot impose a franchise tax. This makes the county overly reliant on property taxes, Herbert said. The county also has problems with dishonesty because the form invites problems, he said. Herbert also listed recommendations on form, which the report suggested to alleviate the problems under the current system. The task force recommended adopting the Urban Form of county government which is set up by state statute. This would give the county the same revenue levying authority that cities have. It would also fix the boundaries, so the county would not be chipped au'ay by annexations. He said the boundaries would probably be what they are now, or what they were at the time of The report also recommends split- DISCOUNT HALL Camping SALT LAKE.

One of the problems facing the league is the lack of awareness of the game's benefits. Too many people just dont understand or appreciate the sport, said Holmes. They aren't avvaie of the team spirit, skill and fun that is involved. Also the SLAHA receives no help, monetary or managerial, from the high schools. High school teams are made up of students from the same school, but that is where the association ends. In addition to paying for equipment and league fees, teams must arrange their own practice and game schedules. The 60 league coaches are all volunteers as are the 15 people on the managerial staff. But despite these odds, according to Holmes, the kids and parents who become involved in hockey find it a ery positive experience. 8 by Dory Donner Green Sheet Staff H riter suited to provide it. This would enable services to be provided at the lowest possible cost, but still maintain community identity. ing with one problem. If the organization were simplified the quality would improve, said Black. The receptioiSof services would be more equitable if the agencies providing those services were combined into one, Black said. The report recommended sharing services between the county and the city, Black said. Local governments would contract to purchase a particular service from the entity best horizontally, Hercules marketing representative Walter C. Jones told Rotarians Monday. and Bell Although Boeing-Verto- l Helicopters are the main sponsorers for the 2 project, Hercules is involved since 59 percent of the craft is made of graphite epoxy. will replace city buses, and citizens of large cities will be shuttled around through the air instead, Jones predicts. "We are predicting the use of this craft in major cities - large cities that are saturated with traffic, said Jones. In the next 20 years you will see 100,000 of these planes employed. By employing these craft, the importance of large airports will also diminish, Jones said. Small satellite will airports will crop up, and Those of us that are seeing the big airports so crowded will see the benefits of getting rid of the huge central airport, Jones said. Although Jones envisions the use of these city planes in 20 years, the military has plans for them in one year. are being assembled Six now. And in two years, 100 of these craft will be built every year. Although the 2 is similar to a helicopter, it is much more stable, Jones said. The craft, which looks right very similar to an airplane, has a rotor on the end of each wing. When is flying vertically the the 2 rotors point up. But when the craft flies horizontally, the rotors rotate forward into propellers. Another dimension of the plan is the safety it offers passengers, Jones said. Graphite epoxy is flame resistant and very flexible. Jones said other firms are also experimenting with the uses of graphite epoxy. Drive shafts and other sorts of airplanes are being constructed with the material. Park Improvements Are Slated GRANITE PARK. Erdman Construction Co. has been selected to build tennis courts at Harmony Park, 3700 So. Main St., with construction of the $75,000 project scheduled to begin on Oct. 1, according to Don Davis of the Salt Lake County Recreation Division, Landscape Architecture Staff. The unlighted courts schould be available for play during the summer of 1988. Funding for the project was provided by Federal Community Development Resources. The new courts, however, represent only one of many improvements planned for the park. The Larry & Dean Warren Construction Company has been awarded a $25,864 contract to add a new drinking fountain, improve the volleyball courts with a railroad tie border, renovate and enlrarge the horseshoe pits and add new playgroup equipment for aged children. pre-scho- APPLICATIONS BEING ACCEPTED FOR Advertising Sales TRAINEE 0 Entry Level Position No Experience Necessary On Job Training f.lUST DE: Self Starter Have Reliable Transportation Success Oriented Must Be High School Graduate Send Resume or Call for Appointment co Bill Olsen GREEN SHEET NEWSPAPERS P.O.
