Show t ni y 2B i i"y The Salt Lake Tribune, mt i Tuesday, January 21, lW Geneva Steel Hearings Scientist: Quake in Utah Could Kill 2,300 By Anne Palmer Tribune Staff Writer The occurrence of a major earthquake along the Wasatch Front would cause an estimated 2.300 fatalities, 9,300 serious injuries and leave 30,000 homeless, a University of Utah seismologist estimates. In addition, the area would suffer a multibillion-dolla- r economic loss, including an estimated $1 2 billion from structural damage. Dr. Walter J. Arabasz, director of the university's seismograph stations, says it is a risky gamble the future of Utah will be as seismologi-calluneventful as the past century Dr. Arabasz, who gave a public lecture at Highland High School on Monday evening, did not, however, predict when the first major earthquake is likely to occur. His address on earthquake prospects and perspectives was the third in the Utah Muse y Wasatch Natural History Front Lecture Series clearPeople here are exposed to ly identifiable earthquake hazards. There is a significant level of earthquake risk." said the research profess um of sor of geology and geophysics. Most of you have probably heard there is an 80 percent chance of a major earthquake along the Wasatch Fault in the next 50 years." Dr Arabasz told the audience He said the figure is difficult to back up, because there is no reliable model for preearthquakes" However, he dicting said there is clear geologic evidence that a significant geologic event, more than 5 on the Richter scale, is likely to occur along the Wasatch Front every 400 years. The old theory that says the sooner a moderate earthquake occurs along the Wasatch Front, the better, still holds true. But he said earthquakes Additional Screenings Set For Movies at Festival By Terry Orme Tribune Staff Writer .PARK CITY With a number of premieres already sold out, the United States Film Festival staff has scheduled additional showings of some of the more popular attractions at the festival this week.

Meanwhile, he said, the Wasatch Front is slipping at an average rate of one millimeter per year. In the Intermountain Seismic Beit, which runs from southern Utah to the U.S. Canadian border, there have been 16 such major events since 1850. Dr. Arabasz gave his assessment of seismic activity along the Wasatch Front relying on data that has been collected since 1850, saying while there has been no simple clustering of seismic events, small to moderate shocks have been consistently recorded all along the Wasatch Front. Activity, he says, is due to overlapping thrust-bel- t structures, which create shinglelike, unstable plates in the upper crust of the region stretching from Gunnison in the south to Idaho north of Malad. Dr. Arabasz monitors a dense network of 80 telemetry stations which extend from Yellowstone National Park to the southern Utah border. His advice to those concerned about earthquake danger is that "for public safety, you need to assume there is a hazard. It could be a decade and it could be a century until something happens. The seismologist, he says, is not able to predict the future, he merely informs you of the risks.

PubliftNKl with per mission ol Red Domboor Entsrprists Star Loses His Voice, But Vows to Return A By John Gutman Tribune Staff Writer For some, Sunday nights Kenny Rogers concert, sans Kenny Rogers, was like a meal without the main Concert review course. To others, Rogers would have been the dessert to top off an already satisfying menu of music. Rogers lost his voice, and his portion of the show was cancelled. He came on stage to explain, and promised to reschedule the concert later this year, gratis for those with Sundays ticket stub. Though it may not have been, without Rogers, quite the in attenextravaganza it was billed to be, the 12,000-plu- s dance at the Salt Palace got to see and hear two of country musics finest acts. Sawyer Brown, back for the second time in as many qualyears, started the show off on an upbeat, ity note. The musicians have honed their act, and they are competent showmen. In a word, they are fun. Lead fast-pace- singer Mark Miller's rich, deep voice, combined with stirring lyrics and a rock n roll beat gives them a combination that is almost impossible to dislike. The familiar songs, those that have been hits this past year (Leona," "Used to Blue" and Step That Step) were mixed with new arrangements ("Heart Dont Fall Hard to Keep a Good Love Down). Down, Their enthusiasm, not as much like seasoned professionals as like children having fun with a new toy, is the main ingredient of their appeal. Their style is distinct from most other country acts. Though it is often hard to detect what most would call a country sound in a good portion of their music, that is their strength. Their style may well be the future of country music. Lee Greenwood, who performed in Salt Lake City just last summer, put on a typically professional show. The jokes were the same as they were in August, but the music was just as pleasing. He also sang the same set of songs, but, like his albums, you can easily listen to them To Me, I over and over. His forte is slow, love songs Owe You, "I Dont Mind the Thorns (If Youre the Rose) and "Sometimes When We Touch. His new songs have a Streamline and Dont Underestimate faster beat My Love."

Afterall, thats what Idaho is famous for. But there is another Gem State that is just as well known to many Utah businesses: Gem State Mutual of Utah, a Utah company. Gem State Mutual of Utah is a health insurance company that has been quietly providing health insurance to the people and employees who operate more than e Utah businesses. During the last ten years, Utah agents 2,500 small and have written insurance for more than 45,000 men, women and children insured by Gem State. And there is a sack full of reasons. Choice of benefits and low cost are among the most important. Baked, boiled, mashed or au gratin. Like potatoes, health insurance comes in different flavors.
