It is true that state officials look at a county with a of some 15,000 population people, supporting four high such as Duchesne schools, county does, and see a need for consolidating these units into larger, more economical comAnd this plexes. basically in is Hut each sound. philosophy individual case there are many factors that should determine the final plant operation. Distance is one factor that is important in Duchesne county. State' officials look at the fact that little more than 30 miles seperate any two of the four high schools in the county, and that travel time suggest between these points would be infitisimal. Hut in a rural community, such as those that feed students to our high it must also be schools, considered that some students have already ridden a bus for nearly an hour before arriving at the present high school location, and would therefore be required to extend this bus stay for another 30 miles. Another factor which must always be weighed in planned consolidation, is the quality of education being received by students of a small unit, and whether or not this quality could be increases! in a larger school. Residents of Tabiona have felt. and have shown proof that although the high school there is handicapped by a limited number of students, the quality of instruction being received by the students is far and above achievements of schools of similar size. Still another factor involves the activity which students might expect to enjoy through their school years, outside the classroom. It has been evident in the past that students living more than 10 miles from the school are seriously high in extracurricular handicapped when these and activities, distances extend to 35 or more miles, as the case would lx for Tabiona students, their chance for activities would lx nil. Finally, the effect of a school closure on a community must at least be considered in making the final decision. If the school is the cultural center of the community, and if it draws overwhelming support in every endeavor undertaken at the EDITOR -.- The Problem Track, fci.Mf-i important, the governments right to regulate what citizens do to their minds and bodies or the freedom of the individual to lead his own life in his own way? If one really believes in individual freedom, the question of marijuana's harmfulness is secondary, and we see that it is just as wrong to outlaw pot as it would Ik I o make criminals of people who drink liquor or smoke tobacco. Robert Workman The Guard Post school, then a closure can have devastating effect. Individually, the adoption of any one of these factors to the Tabiona question should not and probably could not bear too much sway with those who make the decision. Hut when all factors point to the value of maintaining an instructional unit for high school students in the Tabiona area, we feel that every consideration be given to their pleas. One final thought also should be considered. With the growth that is still programmed for this area, including Tabiona, we feel this is not the time to make a decision that may have to be reversed in a few short years. relatives Mr. and Mrs. laiMur Stevenson.

After many years of observing politics, I have concluded that science can't help us set t le questions of public policy. Such questions involve ultimate values, which each of us arrives at intuitively, without much help from reason and science. In Ihe case of marijuana, the ultimate-valu- e question involved is: which is more ARMED FORCES tomti!fc(utc-- d DAY Armed equipment foi ihe Co.
