This is the theme of the 1971, U.B.I.C. celebration next week, and as all past themes, it is designed to stimulate a little thought. On the surface, it is a good theme. The Uintah Basin is truly a giant of potential. Untapped natural resources, unseen beauties, a lot of space and plenty of water all combine to point toward future growth for this area. And certainly the giant is sleeping. There are few of us in the area who really realize what the potential is. We sit back, takhandout, and ing our a few more for possibly hoping crumbs to fall our way. Now, who is to wake the sleeping giant? We need a chamber maid to do the task. And sometimes it is not a pleasant task. Some sleeping giants do not want to be awakened. They are grumpy, mean and unpleasant when roused from slumber. So it is with our sleeping giant. We fear it may take some stirring, prodding, poking and day-to-d- ay Funeral services held for N. J. Meagher Funeral services were-hellast Thursday for Nicholas J.

A wakening giant fights back. The chamber maid may even end up with a black eye. But in the end, if we are able to complete the task, this giant can be a force which can benefit every facet of the Basin. Our economic structure could be shored up, our cultural and educational fields strengthened, and employment opportunities vastly expanded. Yes, the Basin is a sleeping giant And we have been afraid to wake it up. The snoring ' scares" us off. We ignore it to the point that despite the snoring (bickering and among ourselves and our communities) we forget that there is a sleeping giant. Yes, the UBIC will be held next week. It is, and should be, a Basinwide celebration. It has been for many years. It should be a means of combining the fighting strength of the entire area into one unit. And through this combined strength, the giant can be Funeral services held George K.

Jehovah's Witnesses attend convention Wildlife has short end of the slitk Wildlife and forests are being pushed into the shadows by health and profits in the current environmental surge according to a warning from a veteran wlldlifer. Werner Nagel, Missouri's senior wild-li- re biologist, feels popular concern for environment may not Include wildlife and forests. Writing in "Conservation Contrasts", the respected wildlife authority notes: "I cannot emphasize too strongly what I consider the chief danger in present conservation thinking. Most conservationists I've spoken with regard the recent surge of public, youth and political interest In enviornmental quality as very It Is, to a degree. . encouraging. but not necessarily encouraging to wildlife management. On the contrary, the interests of wildlife and even forests can all too easily be relegated to the background by priority concern over such mat- ters as air and water pollution and over population." "Lets get the fact straight, the current surge of public concern over environment is not specifically concern about wildlife and forests. It Is first of all a personal concern about health and profits, and Is directed primarily toward pollution. This Immediate personal concern cannot help but overshadow and submerge the specific Interests of forests and wildlife; it is of value to those interests only Insofar as we take the Initiative in seeing to It that problems of wildlife and forests are Included in discussions of environmental troubles; that values of forests and wildlife are made clear along with values of pure water and air and that plans for managing forests and wildlife are integrated with all plans for reclaiming, Improving, and safequardlng the total environment.
