Record Breaking Pro Tracksters Return to Salt Lake Feb. 22 national balance sheet, the bill would make the information more understandable. The bill would require that budget requests be tied directly to particular national needs and it would revise the way Congress reviews the budget so that funds would be allocated according to a list of national priorities. Moss has been a proponent of such changes for a number of yeafrs. In the past he has charged that the budget seems to be purposely confusing and nebulous to keep the Congress from getting at the funding for programs of questionable merit. Moss maintains that the difficulty of comparing various parts of the national budget with each other results in endless duplications of effort with an accompanying waste of funds. The chief sponsor of the legislation (S. 1414) is Florida Senator Lawton Chiles. The bill will be considered as an amendment to the Senate Budget Reform Bill (S. 1541) later in this ses- He vows, Never again.

Thats what happens in the Salt Palace Friday, Feb. 22, at 8:00 p.m. when the International Track Association comes to Salt Lake City for one night only. The worlds best track and field athletes are competing for a season grand prize of over $400,000. Pole vaulter Steve Smith was an amateur when he set the world indoor record of 18 feet in last years Millrose Games at Madison Square Garden. Now hes a professional and he expects to go even higher during ITAs second season. The other day in practice I cleared 17 feet 8 inches. Thats the best practice vault Ive had. Last year a couple of weeks before the Millrose, I did 17 feet 6 inches in practice so dont be surprised if I break the record before the 1st of March. The high altitude in both Salt Lake and Pocatello is particularly good for vaulters, so just say I am shooting for the record as we return to the Salt Palace on February 22. Smith and his chief rival, outdoor record holder Bob Seagren, are almost a cinch to break the Salt Palace ITA record of 17 feet set last year. Tickets are on sale now at the Salt Palace box office and all ZCMT stores. Last year, the pro runners and jumpers and throwers bettered or tied the world indoor record 16 times. This year with new stars like Smith and veterans like Olympic gold medalists Randy Matson and Vince Matthews poised for comebacks the ITA expects its athletes to do even better. Shot putter Matson will be looking for revenge at the Salt Palace as well as for top prize money. The 1968 Olympic shot put champion scored only one victory over new world record holder Brian Oldfield in 16 pro meets last year. back from Brian. But Oldfield will take some beating. Not only did he break the world indoor record three times last year, raising it at the Salt Palace to 70 feet 10 inches but his 12 best puts last year averaged 70 feet 1 inch. Matthews, who won the 1972 gold medal in the 440 meter run joined the pro circuit after an operation last year and never caught up with Lee Evans, the tours leading money winner. But Matthews said, On Feb. 22. Ill be ready. I have a book coming out this spring and I hope to win a few races to help publicize it. Adventists Lose Jobs During British Crisis The energy crisis is hitting the keepers of the seventh day Sabbath harder than most folks. In Britain they are losing their jobs and business hardship threatens in at least two states of the U.S. Adventist world headquarters here have received word that the thee day work week in England has thrown many of the church members out of work because they cannot meet business appointments on Saturday. In England the work week has been divided into two three day segments with soecified business assigned to Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday; and other concerns assigned to keep offices open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The Adventists can not work on Saturdays. In the U.S. Sunday law bills have been introduced in California and Indiana, prohibiting the operation of businesses with the exception of liquor stores, snorts and certain related operations. The bills are aimed at aiding the energy crisis, proponents claim.
