Therefore, we tend to ignore the fact that for the past decade the youth of the United States of America have quite distinctly had another God before them. We all know what that god is. is a In reality that "god devil, and it has worked its way insidiously into the homes of even the most Christian and upright of our citizenry. Nearly ten years ago, when one of the Beatles declared that they, the Beatles, were more popular with youth than Jesus Christ, that Beatle wasnt kidding. They are . . . and what youth the new today worships is sound or the new music, which, like "the new morality, is patently evil, has utterly no redeeming social merit, and, in short, stinks stinks with the corruption it causes. All this would be bad enough, but in addition the sound is cacophonous and has been proved literally damaging to the body, the mind, and, mostly, the spirit. In 1919 the founders of the socialistic form of government openly declared that they would commence at once to "weaken Americas future generations by a series of techniques which they believed would so ruin youth that they, the socialistic force, would need to make no open attack, but rather they would merely stand by as Vr.eriv.a rotted from within. Then they would attack openly without resistance from us. Go to any discotheque today, or to any hangout where doped, duped American youth are so physically and mentally wrung-ou- t by "the new sound that they can hardly converse intelligibly, or in complete sentences, and youll readily see the wry d wisdom of the opposition. While Cache Valley may yet be very religious and Godfearing, it is worth noting that as long ago as 1919 so was most of the nation. Knowing this, the socialistic plotters realized they must first corrode the American belief in God. They also knew this would be their hardest battle. above-mentione- Manti South ELAINE HIGHAM Telephone 835-44- 62 Vic Brown recently visited his parents, the Don Browns. Vic works in St. George.

Buck only hunts restrict sportsmen to go after about one third of the entire deer population, Conditioned as we are by the legacy of Cecil B. DeMille, we lend too much to think that the sisters of Jean the harobjective to vest was accomplished, said John. The buck only regulations over most of the state accounted for a 74 percent drop in antlerless deer taken. The number of bucks harvested, 46,282 did not differ appreciably from other years. In 1974, 8,351 does were legally harvested, compared to 32,587 in 1973. Utahs deer winter ranges are generally in better condition now than in years past and can handle this planned addition of over 24,000 antlerless noted John. If the deer, unknown, illegal antlerless kill associated with the buck only season did not substantially decrease this number, their added reproductive potential should increase herd numbers over the next few years. Hunter success last year dropped to just over 28 percent. John explained that the high number of hunters afield coupled with Is The New Music a Bad Influence? explained. are confident most herds can be maintained at a higher level than at present. However, hunter success figures will not rise to those seen in the good old days, because the number of hunters has doubled.

Michelson and son, Russell, from Salt Lake City spent the 55 mph Speed Limit Made Permanent The State Road Commission, meeting March 28 in Salt Lake City, passed a resolution establishing 55 mph as the permanent maximum limit in Utah. The new resolution replaces a resolution passed last January that established a 55 mph limit until the President declares there is no fuel shortage or on June 30, 1975, whichever date first occurs. The permanent 55 mph limit brings Utah into compliance with national legislation that ties federal highway funds to the 55 mph limit. Secretary of Transportation William T. Coleman, Jr. has informed the states that they must have a certified 55 mph maximum speed limit that is vigorously enforce or lose federal money. The resolution will be filed with the State Archivist for public review and comment before final adoption. What do you do when you're confronted with an overwhelming task? Of course you break it into smaller parts and work on the whole piece by piece. The opposition is doing this. They avowedly declared that they would get rid of God in America by "hooking" youth on "sex and all things sensual. The 1920s saw the beginning of this plan of attack, which, if you dislike thinking of as a "plan of attack, we allowed. We allowed it. Moreover, we embraced it, and our youth came out calling it good and beautiful-a- rid laughing their heads off at racket, please, and watch the fishy stares, the dropping jaws.
