By Saunders and Ernst Mary Worth I)II) SURFING ORIGI- Surfing originated in Oceania hundreds of years ago. Oceania takes in the islands of the central and South Pacific, including Micronesia, Melanesia and Polynesia. Surfing was a highly developed sport in the Hawaiian Islands by the time the English explorer James Cook reached them As the wave begins to carry the board toward shore, the surfer stands up. He tries to guide the board aeross the face of the wave by shifting the weight of his body.

STAR GAZER ARIES MAR. 2' The surfboards back in the 18th century were long hardwood slabs that weighed 150 pounds or more. The boards were so hard to handle that only the strongest athletes were able to take part in the sport. With the development of lighter surfboards, surfing became a popular sport in many of the temperate areas where there was ocean surf. By the 1930s, solid plank surfboards had been replaced by plywood and balsa-wooboards with fins for steering. A still lighter board was produced in the 1960s, using such new materials as Styrofoam and fiberglass. The new boards are tapered and hollow. The modern surfboard measures 9 to 10 feet in length, 22 to 23 inches in width and is 3 to 4 inches thick. Weighing less than 25 pounds, the new surfboards are particularly popular Some surfboards among weigh as little as 8 pounds. Although it is possible to surf on waves that are only 1 foot high, steeper waves provide a faster, more exciting ride. Southern California, with more than 40 surfing beach2s, has beridcome the center of small-wav- e ing. The worlds best surf, the experts say, is found in Hawaii where waves may peak at 30 feet. Surfers usually train for surfboard riding by body surfing. To body surf, a surfer swims out from the shore and waits for a high wave. When a high waves starts in toward the shore, he does a scissors kick (spreads his legs apart and kicks them together) in the direction of the shore and swims a few strokes at the crest. The wave sweeps him toward shore. For a surfboard ride, the surfer lies stomach-dow- n on the board and paddles out to the area where the waves may move to the front of the board, but most surfers stand at the middle or rear of the board to keep it from turning over. bu''d up When a big wave starts in toward shore, the suiter paddles ins board ahead of it in 1778.

But, that wont happen until next year when the elected officials begin new four-yea- r terms. Meanwhile, office holders will get e raise in their a decidcommissioners to $33,422, pay ed Monday. full-tim- "Boundaries of all the districts will be moved a little bit, explained Presiding Judge Ralph Bishop. He is retiring, and his Cottonwood Heights precinct is being eliminated along with a part-tim- e district in the unincorporated county near West Jordan. Simply put. Judge Bishop said filings are being moved to circuit court because Utah law makes justice of the peace decisions too easy to appeal. Actually, those who are dissatisfied with decisions can ask for and get new trials in circuit court. E I Goren on Todays Bridge Hand By C. H.

This hand could easily have been included in those selected for the cassette. To test your skill, cover the East and West hands and see if you can spot line for your conthe sure-trictract after West leads a low spade and dummy's jack wins the trick. The auction was uneventful. Once North discovered that his partner did not have a four-carheart suit, he bid what he expected his side to make. After the jack of spades wins, you have time to establish the tricks you need in hearts and clubs if you can succeed in keeping East, the danger hand, off lead. At trick two, lead a low club from dummy toward your jack. If East has the ace and steps up with it, you have nine tricks two spades, four diamonds and three clubs. So East must duck. If West wins the ace, he cannot attack spades without presenting you with your ninth trick, and you have time to set up a heart. But A Q 5 K 10 2 AQJ9 J73 The bidding: Opening lead: Four of Omar Sharif's visit to new York e to film his Play Bridge With Omar Sharif" was the occasion for some friendly bridge video-cassett- d let's suppose the jack of clubs wins. Now its time to turn your attention to hearts. However, you still need to protect against East gaining the lead, so it is correct to cross to the table with the king of diamonds and lead a heart to your king. Again East cannot afford to rise with the ace, and if West wins you have the time to set up another club as your game-goin- g trick. Note that, as the cards lie, you can be defeated if, after winning the jack of clubs, you lead a heart from hand. East captures the queen with the aee and returns a spade to set up Wests suit, and West still has the ace of clubs as an entry to cash his tricks before you can take nine.

Named To Head Division of Artificial Organs Dr. Donald B. Olsen, director of the Artificial Heart Research Laboratory at the University of Utah, has been appointed director of the Institute for pw Biomedical Engineering and Division of Artificial Organs, effective Feb. 15. Dr. Olsen succeeds Dr. Willem Kolff, disting- uished professor of I medicine and Dr. Olsen surgery, who will retire on his 75th birthday. Dr. Kolff, a native of the Netherlands who founded the institute and division at the U. of U. in 1967, will continue part-tim- e research into new manufacturing methods for artificial hearts. Renowned for his pioneering work in developing artificial kidneys and artificial hearts, Dr. Kolff will be honored at an International Symposium on Artificial Organs, Biomedical Engineers and Transplantation this week in Salt Lake City. Artificial heart research currently dominates the activities of the institute, said Dr. Olsen. Dr. Kolff Is developing a new manufacturing method to make artificial hearts, called vacuum forming. Dr. Olsens group is working with new designs for artificial hearts, including a small ellipti-call- y shaped artificial heart and one that would be totally implanted in the chest. Key artificial organs projects that began under the auspices of the Divithe artifision of Artificial Organs cial arm, kidney, ear and blood veshave spun off to form sels independent research groups. An artificial Fallopian tube has been studied for the last two years. Blocked Fallopian tubes are the leadafing cause of infertility in women, in the women million half a fecting United States. Dr. Olsen said he expects to look into basic studies of deep hypothermia, an induced state in humans he calls "artificial hibernation. "Reports in the scientific literature indicate that the immune response to disease is continuous in animals that naturally hibernate," he said. "This allows time to recover from otherwise virulent organisms and it may well have a role in the natural immune response that could be beneficial to people in recovering from a variety of diseases. Dr. Olsen said that great strides have been made in the miniaturization of computer technology over the last decade, which encourages research in an area called neuroprosth-csis- . The possibility of sending computerized signals into existing nerves suggests the feasibility of several projects, such as pain control, computer control of otherwise paralyzed muscles, artificial hearing and perhaps artificial sight. Dr. Olsen was born in Bingham, attended in high school in Gunnison and received a B.S. degree in animal nutrition and chemistry from Utah State University, Logan. After earning a doctor of veterinary medicine degree from Colorado State University, he began a veterinary practice in Smithfield, specializing in large animal care.
