''' Bolsters Say Counts's Plans Are Strike The Salt Palace is no good as an Olympic venue says the president of the US Speed Skating Association Including a temporary oval in the plans for a renovated convention center would not promote skating and breaks the Utah Olympic Bid Committee promise of a permanent facility said Bill Cushman "The whole idea of the Olympics is to leave a legacy of venues for the people of Utah and their athletes" he said " And the Salt Palace just won't do the job- Mr Cushman said he will send a letter to the Utah Sports Authority expressing his criticism The sports authority will decide Oct 5 if the oval should be built in the Salt Palace or the Oquirrh Park Fitness Center Neither sports authority president Randy Dryer nor Utah Bid Committee Chairman Tom Welch was available for comment Wednesday evening Bid officials fear a controversial skating oval could harm Salt Lake City's chances of hosting the 2002 Winter Olympic Games The Salt Lake County Commission spent several hours Wednesday night defending the Salt Palace proposal during a special public meeting The proposal has been popular enough to prompt Salt Lake City Mayor Deedee Corradini to pull her proposal for building the oval on Block 49 which had already won the sports authority's approval But the Salt Palace plan has its problems The county still has to come up with as much as $5 million to make the Salt Palace oval plan work said Kevin Higkiins assistant to Commission Chairman Jim Bradley But where that money will come from is still vague Mi year-roun- d -
