In Case of Emergency Call 644-266- 7 Utah ern in School by JIM CAMPBELL Utah Education Association President Only 17 percent of Americas 18 to-2- year-ol- voters cast ballots d in the 1986 election, and a company called General Dynamics thinks that's shocking. But General Dynamics isn't in shock. The company is doing something about getting young people to vote. They call it the Vote America Project, and theyre providing teaching materials to 25,000 high schools across the country. There's more. The company is also supplying personal registration and voting booklets to more than half million voting-agstudents. The goal is to register every one of them--anto encourage them become informed voters. Theres even more. General Dynamics is running a national TV campaign to encourage older voters, too. Thats because slightly more than half the eligible American voters (53 percent) actually cast ballots in the 1986 election. General Dynamics, in an advertisement about the Vote America project, stated: ...when a government is of half the people and by half the people, sooner or later the worst thing happens. It becomes for half the people. And no American would vote for that." Utahs ' percentage of voting voters has been higher than the national average, but slipping in recent years. Young people tend to watch their parents' behavior and do as Mom and Dad do. That means the coming primary and general elections provide a shining opportunity to teach youth of the voting age how important the act of voting is. Simply invite them to go to the polls with you. But remember: They must be registered to vote. Excellence Award for Post Secondary Agriculture. He will be honored Monday in Salt Lake City in ceremonies attended by Utah Governor Norman Bangerter. Eighteen secondary and post secondary awards will be presented then in various areas of vocational education. As a post the SUSC winner, secondary freshman will receive an engraved plaque and $250 cash award. Hulet was nominated by the college and won the award as a result of his performance at a session of interviews and resume presentations in Salt Lake City earlier this month. Daniel displays a quality the agricultural industry seeks in its next generation of people, said Daniel R. Dail, an associate professor of agriculture at SUSC. Of all the things that are really important, he displays a strong sense of purpose, a quality that helped him earn this recognition. He knows what he wants to do. He knows where he wants to go. The son of Carlyle and Norma Hulet, the vocational agriculture major is a 1975 graduate of Kanab High School. He enrolled at SUSC this fall following six years in the U.S. Navy where he worked as a submarine sonar technician. Hulet will work on Cedar Mountain this summer on a beef and sheep coordinated research project through Utah State University. He plans to pursue a career as a farm or ranch manager, possibly owning his own ranch. The Vocational Excellence Award and Scholarship Program is designed to increase public awareness of the quality and value of Utahs vocational and technical education programs and to recognize students who have achieved excellence in those programs. Now in its fifth year, the program is jointly sponsored by the Utah State Board for Vocational Education, Utah State Board of Regents, Utah State Department of Community and Economic Development, the Salt Lake Tribune and KUTV-2- .
