Show THE GREEN SHEET In Area - Famous Names Abound by Steve Warren Green Sheet Staff Writer MURRAY. Meet any "big names" lately? If not, and youd like to, consider taking a job as a reporter. just last Monday alone, Why, talked with Gordon Hinckley, Jacqueline Kennedy, Orin Hatch, Fred Meyer, Charlie Brown, Mrs. Robert Frost, Butterworth, Nathan Hale and Joseph Smith, among others. OK, I admit it. I didnt talk with the Jacqueline Kennedy. And I didnt go to a seance to get in touch with departed souls like Robert Frost. Instead, I phoned Salt Lake area residents with famous names. I just wanted to find out how people cope with their famous names. I learned that most were perfectly happy to have a famous name and were willing to talk about it. In fact, only three of the 16 I phoned declined to be interviewed. Of the three, one has the name of a famous actor whose most recent movie bombed. Another carries the name of a politician currently in disfavor. And the third probably was just tired of fielding questions from wise guys and reporters asking about his name. One of my first calls was to Mrs. of Pau wife Butterworth, Butterworth, 911 W. 10220 Mrs. Jordan. South, South Butterworth doesnt always buy Mrs. Butterworths syrup. "I buy it only when I can afford it," she said. "I think its the best on the market." On the other hand, one advantage Mrs. Butterworth has, even when she cant afford the more expensive syrup, is tha; when she puts Aunt Jemimas or Log Cabin in her shopping cart, it Mrs. becomes automatically Butterworths when she passes through the checkstand. Mrs. Butterworth noted tha; children often call, saying, "I love your syrup," then hang up. Robert Frost, 2898 W. Jana Lee Dr., West Jordan, said, "I should have been a poet or a writer," but admits that he is neither. Frost, a medical products salesman, said his name is a big advantage in his business - "everybody remembers your name." Although Frost most j too U I QO nmim I E 19.99 I 1 MdLthne.

When he walked to the speakers stand, instead of President Hinckley, groans of disappointment swelled up from the crowd. introduces When Hinckley sometimes the response himself, is, "Sure, and Im Joseph Smith." One person who could look Hinckley in the eye and say, "Im Joseph Smith, is Joseph Smith of 5058 So. 2200 West, Taylorsville. Smith is a descendant of Hyrum Smith, brother of Mormon founder Joseph Smith. Because Smith is president of the Taylorsville West Stake, visiting Church authorities often say something like, "theres not too many places that we go where Joseph Smith is the stake president," observed Mrs. Smith. Charlie Brown, 4324 So. 3760 West, West Valley, often receives phone calls from young people who ask, "Is Charlie Brown there?" When the answer is "no, the callers then ask, "Well, is Snoopy there?" or "Is Linus there?" to which the Browns respond, "Yes, but hes asleep."
