Quarterly Conference Volume 89 Number 48 Yhis Week copy MANTI, UTAH 84642, THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 1975 A special temple session and three conference sessions are on the schedule for members of the Manti Utah Stake this week. The stake quarterly conference meetings are planned for Saturday and Sunday, June 7 and 8 in Manti while the special temple session will be held Thursday evening, June 5th at 7 p.m. in the Manti Temple. There has been no general authority assigned to attend this quarterly conference. Stake President Wilbur W. Cox noted. The initial session of the conference will be held Saturday evening at 8 in the Manti School District Dress Code The South Sanpete School District met recently and adopted dress standards for the coming school year, after reviewing recommendations from committees from the Gunnison and Manti High Schools. The code of dress for students in the South Sanpete School District is based upon the premise that good, clean and proper dress and grooming habits parallel a good learning environment. It is important that the school board, superintendent, students, school personnel and especially parents take a unified position in promoting standards of dress and grooming which enhance the educational environment, health, and general welfare of students. Listed below are specific guides for school personnel, students and parents to follow. 1. All clothing is to be worn in the manner it was designed to be worn, providing it meets the standards of this policy. 2. Girlss wearing apparel should be modest in appearance. The shortness of skirts or dresses should not exceed seven inches above the top of the floor when the girl is in a kneeling position. This ruling will be enforced from the 4th grade and up. 3. Girls may wear long pants or colored jeans as long as they are clean, neat, modest and unaltered. 4. Girls hair should be clean, neat, and well groomed. They should wear their hair in such a way that it does not obstruct their vision. 5. Boys wearing apparel should be clean and modest in appearance, neat, and in their original, unaltered state. 6. Boys should be clean shaven. No beards will be allowed except during contest time designated by the faculty and student council. A mustache will be accepted if it is kept well trimmed, neat and clean. 7. Boys hair shall be clean and groomed. Side burns and hair shall not extend beyond the bottom of the ear lobe. a. Hair shall be groomed or trimmed so that the eyebrows are visible. b. Hair shall be groomed and trimmed so that it is off the e collared dress shirt when the boy bottom of the collar of a is standing or sitting erect approximately 7th vertebrae. 8. Any extremes in dress or accessories by either boys or girls will not be permitted such as tank type shirts, halters or bare offensive slogans, patches, buttons, etc. which will tend to disrupt educational process. 9. Teachers, advisors, and student council do have authority to determine additional standards. 10. Hard sole shoes are required. If sandals are worn, sock are required. (No thongs). This is to conform to the State Health Code. 11. All school activities are subject to this policy. The parent or guardian of any student who fails to observe the dress and grooming standards of the South Sanpete School District will be notified and the students will be suspended until the dress policy is complied with. A district committee to review dress standards will be made up of citizens of all attendance areas. It will be the function of this district committee to review any violations of the dress policy and give recommendations to the school board. This will allow uniformity in the district and also give a student the right to appeal if he thinks he is within the standard and has been notified that he was not. This committee should be made up of parents. flap-typ- mid-riff- . American Party Elects Delegates at Convention Brigham Young University Professor H. Verlan Andersen was keynote speaker at the American Party convention in Manti last Thursday. Anderson, who holds degrees in law from Harvard Law School and Stanford Law School, addressed an audience of 50 persons at the Manti High School.

We must be willing to serve in the military in defense of our country, and we must be willing to pay our share of the taxes. No society can long survive without government. But what is the purpose of government and what are its powers? Can you condense it to the protection of life, liberty, and property? Of course, for all rights fall within these three. It is when government exceeds these limitations that civilizations falter. Areas in which he said the federal government has no business were identified as welfare, education, business licensing, direct taxation (as opposed to taxation by population of the states), land use control, and the printing of unbacked currency. Andersen concluded his speech by quoting a letter from the late President David 0.
