Show When you wish upon a star If you're ambitious you'll resolve that 1985 is the year you finally Do It. If you're practical, all you want please, Lord! is to avoid doing in 1985 what you did in 1984. If you're a psychic for the "National Enquirer" you know what will happen in 1985. We can never control the future, but we still make resolutions and wishes for the coming year. As for the Park Record, we journalists love to make resolutions or wishes for other people. Therefore, after surveying the editorial staff, we were able to put together a wish list. Here's what we'd like to see in 1985: Another public bar will be set upon Main Street. When a developer disagrees with the city, he will explain, logically and clearly, where the city is wrong; he will not threaten to pick up his marbles and go home. A stop light will be installed in Park City that actually controls traffic. A regulation-size ice rink will be built. A person will be brought to trial for the murder of Fred Duncan. Local government units will give proper notice for public meetings and will open doors for them. The local media will better publicize and explain the issues behind public meetings. Interested citizens will lake the time to show up for public meetings. Tori Pillinger will make the World Cup tour. There will be less construction traffic, and no road detours will be in force longer than a single season. Tom Selleck will buy the Egyptian Theatre, and will plan to do two annual productions there with Hollywood associates, leaving it rent-free to local theater groups the rest of the year. A 40-mile speed limit will be imposed on Utah Highway 224 out to Holiday Ranch Loop Road. There will be more powder snow. The year will go by without any bond elections. The Pulitzer Committee will establish a new prize category, for Best Small Town Newspaper published next to a Dairy Queen. -RB |
