McManus continues with a style of relying on people's more intimate and unfavorably reported moments in life "I take common things and extend them to absurdity" said McManus "But they are also logical to a point" Because his stories expand on the human experience McManus has attracted olough readers for his books The Night the Bear Ate Goombaw Never Sniff a GO Fish The Grasshopper Trap and Rubber to reach Legs and White Tail-Hair- s the oest sellers list He attributes his success in being able to take life's most unpleasant moments and making them humorous This style has allowed him to reach beyond outdoor readers and into the national market McManus is upset with current styles utilizing sex and violence in today's books To counter this new trend he tries to appeal to both old and young readers "Mark Twain definitely influenced me because he wrote for both adults and children" said McManus Though happy with his present audience McManus wishes to write something a little more sophistical ed in the future McManus has worked as a professor in English and Journalism at Eastern Washington University He left the teaching profession in 1982 to concentrate on writing However he does look back to those days when he learned as much from his students as he taught According to McManus "There is no humor in living at 72 degrees I can get in my car and drive to a place where I can shop in 20 stores without ever being outside" He believes humor comes when people step out of a controlled environment and become susceptible to 001" 4 '41 4 14414:45C Author Pat McManus adds to humorous observations Southern Davis County Towns Study Golf Course Proposals Three southern Davis County cit- ies would like to capitalize on the area's population growth by constructing municipal golf courses Two new courses are in the preliminary planning stages in North Salt Lake and Centerville while West Bountiful is acquiring land to course expand its existing nine-hol- e to 18 holes With a profitable nine-bol- e course already in place West Bountiful is getting a jump on other cities said golf course board chairman Grant Iverson Centerville City manager David Hales said information indicates that three golf courses can be justi fied to satisfy golfers' demand in the southern part of the eoun y The Centerville City Counc1 has ' I f 1 18-ho- cj 32-Pa- ge ' 4-0- i- t40 Planner 842-C136- 9 t14 :: u I Latara(t Westwater '' I Green River ( rand Canyon -- 17 thru June a brochure please call you would like FREE FNMA TR house where several pioneer 21 300-mil- moun- interesting tains far from the Wasatch Front Ranges like the Deep Creeks Blues LaSals and alpine Henrys form islands in the midst of desert splendor Geologically the Tushar Mountains east of Beaver rank among the highest and most interesting of these ranges Few stand taller than 12169-foo- t Delano Peak the highest in southwestern Utah "The Tushars are part of an old volcanic complex" said Andy Godfrey a public information specialist for the Fishlake National Forest which manages much of the area Godfrey also holds a doctorate in geology "There were two periods of major eruptions One occurred 30 million years ago and another 20 million years ago" high-elevati- heavily-populate- seldom-visite- SHFARSON LEHMAN BROTHERS this and other securities available through Shearson Lehman Brothers d d "This should be enough water to get us through July and part of August in pretty good shape for power boats and swing-kee- l sailboats If we are lucky we will hit 5912 and not go down "What is it going to take to get the e y olives onions green peppers mushrooms and mustard served hot The Truck Stop Cafe which has been owned by the same family for over 60 years features mandarin crepes For more information on visiting Fillmore write to the Fillmore Chamber of Commerce PO Box 1214 Fillmore Utah 84631 or call 1 Godfrey says the eruptions were extremely violent producing incandescent clouds similar to those seen after the eruption of Mt St Helens The eruptions produced rock called welded tuff which is commonly seen on the mountain "When things settled down it was so hot that all the particles to each other" he said "As down and there were cooled things contractions the rock pulled apart cold from itself and made spot-welde- d six-side- umns" To see an example of this type of geology drive to a campground up Clear Creek Canyon just east of the Ask for and junction of directions at Fremont Indian State Park which is near the canyon It is possible to see several cooling layers there The Fremont Indians used the rock at a nearby area as a sort of easel for their rock writings — Tom Wharton lake back up the 10 feet we need?
