That snow makes up the bulk of the heavy spring runoff. On a positive note, however, they noted the snowpack is below normal while only minimal amounts of snow remain at lower elevations. So far this month, precipitation is 200 percent to 250 percent of normal in northern Utah, increasing the totals for the water year that started Oct. 1 to almost 200 percent of average. All of that water eventually ends up in the Great Salt Lake, prompting the weather service officials to acknowledge that "a peak near 4,212 feet above mean sea n level is becoming more of a reality each day." When the lake is measured Thursday by the U.S. Geomark, its logic Survey, it is expected to top the 4,211-fosecond highest level since records of its elevation were kept following the arrival of the Mormon pioneers. It was measured at 4,210.85 feet on April 15. The weather service's most recent peak prediction is 4,211.6 feet, equalling the record set in June 1873, but Mr Alder has indicated that could be revised upward after Thursday's reading. Utah Lake was measured Monday at 3.91 feet above the new compromise level, exceeding last year's peak of' 3.84 feet above compromise. It is projected to peak in May at 4.0 to 4.5 feet above compromise. , Speaker Praises Chimps as Humans' Mirror, By Patti Auer Tribune Staff Writer One way to gain a better understanding of the place of humans in the nature of things is to study the chimd anthropolopanzee, gist Jane Goodall told an audience at Symphony Hall Monday evening. In her presentation, "In the Shadow of Man" Ms. Goodall, founder of the Tanzania's Gombe National Park chimpanzee reserve in Africa, said there is much similarity between the affectionate, caring, nurturant behavior of the mother &imp and the "special behavior" humans are capable of showing. The relationship between a mother chimpanzee and her infant is the only stable unit in the chimpanzee's social structure. The mother has a gentle, nurturing behavior toward her infant. The type of mothering a female chimp exhibits has a great impact on adult behavior in her young. This is also true for humans. "During the early years the care and affection of the mother and siblings can lead to a youngster who is relaxed in relationships with adults," said Ms. Goodall.
