In a classic example of the possibility of good resulting from ill, the AABB was formed after the Texas City disaster, in which a ship explosion killed 500 and injured 3000 persons.

PLEASE BE ON TIME! p Xi JJ T y U X 1 - T K 1 n AL0 Advertising may be a critical factor in the welfare of the nation during 1970, It can be a critical factor in the prosperity of individual communities. It is a vast understatement to say that the economic picture at the present is unsettled. Respected economists are predicting everything from leaping inflation to dep- ression. Meanwhile, the consumer is squeezing his dollar. This is understandable, since the value of money is going up while the value of its purchasing power is going down. If the situation is confusing to the experts, it is certainly more confusing to 1 Your Heart Associations nationwide program to reduce the risk of heart attack is broadly based on this premise: The individual, working with his physician, can improve his chances by minimizing the known and controllable risk factors high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol levels, obesity, physical inactivity and cigarette smoking. the layman. As is always the case, the consumer will curtail buying when he is not confident that buying is in his own in- terest. It should be the business of advertising in 1970 to restore the confidence of the con- sumer as it did during similar situations in 1957 and 1960. For expanding We applaud these recommendations, but suggest that the list of musts should be extended. It isnt enough for a person to see his doctor for prompt treatment of any high blood pressure that may be consumption of mass produced goods is the basis of prosperity as we have known it for the 30 years. The advertiser, from the local retailer to the great manufacturer, who fails to see the need for stimulating a faster movement of goods is inviting disaster for his company and the general economy.

Smith, Preservation Officer, Utah Historic Sites Survey, announces that Utahs Historical and Cultural Sites Review Committee listed the Fairfield Stage Coach Inn on the State Central Bank & ural, or archeological sites from their area. Sites listed on the State Register will be considered for the National Register, will receive state-wid- e recognition, and will gain some protection from destruction by "state' financed1 projects. Once a site is listed On the National Register, it has additional recognition and protection but also becomes eligible for federal matching funds for its restoration and preservation. It would also seem advantageous for each county to establish its own register of sites, which could be more inclusive than either the State or National registers, and from which recommendations could be made to the Review Committee.

This article appeared under the banner of View From the Press Box. Since the article appeared under your editorship I will have to assume that you agree and that this reporter is not only a sports reporter but also has the license to editoralize axd condemn fine young men with the written word. I would like to make some observations Most certainly it was about the article. not just a report of a ball game played between two schools. If a close look was taken he could observe that the starters in the early part of the season have been one sophomore, two juniors and two seniors. If that is seniority system, or favoring the, seniors, I cant see the logic behind the statement. The implications and statements that a boy cannot do good in two sports in a high school is ridiculous. If someone had the time to check the starting football teams in our region and the varsity basketball squads, I am sure that you will find a high correlation between the two sports in Utah County. The state high school activities association sets the sport seasons so they do not overlap too badly (only in play off games) so each sport can enjoy a season without pressures from other sports. An example of this is no spring football or extended basketball season beyond the end of league play except for those teams inIn college volved in tournament play. where a boy must specialize this maybe so, but in a high school setting it does not follow. A boy who gets up and goes to school at 7:30 in the morning or stays after school in the seventh, eighth or ninth grade to practice basketball just might be able to learn a little about the game before he starts to play organized sopho- YES M $ PAYSON CHRONICLE more football.

Will 1970 be another banner year for the Grim Reaper, who last year claimed 308 lives in traffic accidents on the streets and highways of Utah? The traffic accident problem in the State could be reduced measurably, J. Earl Johnson, Safety Director for the Safety Council for Utah County reported today, if every driver would take it upon himself to learn the Defensive Driving techniques which have been proven to be an effective means of reducing traffic mishaps. The Defensive Driving Course, he pointed out, is intended for all drivers who wish to become better in the art of driving an automobile in todays traffic. Drivers in Utah County will have an opportunity to enroll in a Defensive Driving Course to be held in the Provo High School, Room Al-- 1, 1125 University Ave. The course will start on Tuesday, Feb. 3, at 7:00 p.m. and will continue on each 2 has grown into an organization of 5000' members in all 50 slates and 35 foreign' countries. It has extablished standards for blood banks, and an education program for blood bank technologists, set up a system for voluntary inspection and accreditation, and 25 regional laboratories for identifying rare blood types. It has a computerized file of donors with rare and super-rar- e blood. This file has often proved a lifesaver. Most important, the Association has pioneered the national clearinghouse system for the exchange of blood credits. The Red Cross cooperates in this. The system shifts blood about the country to relieve shortages and permits blood given locally to be credited to a patient in a distant city and helps thousands save on medical expenses.

Reduce the risk of a heart attack Advertising critical factor in 1 970 ' BANKS Legislative report by W. R. Phelps Friday, Jan. 23, was the deadline for completion of the revision of the budget by the nine joint appropriation committees of which every single member of the legislature (both house and senate) is a member. This plan insures participation by every member of this body and distributes the work load over the entire structure, which makes for a more efficient operation in finding the slate agencies. Before the legislature was reorganized in this manner, most of the budget work load fell on one or two main committees. Thus it would be impossible to make a real thorough revision and investigation of the budget with smaller group of participants and with the time available. I feel fortunate to have started under the new system. Ourcommittee on Business, Labor and Regulations completed on schedule the revision of our part of the budget. We cut approximately $240,000,000 oraquar-te- r of a million dollars from the Governors request. The majority party had hoped to reduce Mr. Ramptons total request by six or seven million dollars by the time all nine committees had finished reporting. The last I heard, however, was that we had succeeded in cutting out three or four million. Next week the whole budget will be worked over by the steering committee (known as the hatchet committee) which will make additions or further deletions. Then, as I understand, it must be passed through both houses and presented to the Governor for his signature. Some of my constituents have asked me if we can have a reduction in taxes. My answer is yes, if expenditures can be reduced enough and projected revenues are sufficient to make a surplus. Cutting taxes without first cutting spending creates deficit spending 'which is prime fuel for feeding the fires of inflation.

These students are not professionals that are paid to do a job. They are hard working boys who put forth an effort to participate in a good program for their own personal growth and development and pleasure. To help the school, who sponsors the activity, by developing good school spirit.' To offer to the parents and school community good wholesome entertainment. And last to give a writer a chance to give his personal opinions and an opportunity to take a swing at good hard working boys and people who put in many extra hours, or to critize people who understand and have spent years in practice, professional study, and teaching. There will always be problems when you are dealing with people and not everyone can be a starter or the star. Every mother crow feels that her crow is the blackest. Why need a student be catagorized as a football, basketball, tennis, baseball, track or for only a special musical or dramatic talent? Certainly a person can do many things if he works and tries. That is what school is all about. To let people develop ' all their talents as much as possible. Let Mrs. Naiomi Jermain who had surgery last Tuesday is reported improving.
