TMMS landscape contract Tuesday night the Park City Board of Education decided to ask Karsten Hansen and Associates of Salt Lake City to act as landscape architects for the grounds surrounding the new Treasure Mountain Middle School.

Committee seeks art for PCHS A committee is being formed to seek out artwork to adorn the interior of the Park City High School, Principal Jack Dozier told the Board of Education. "Right now we have approximately ap-proximately $4,000 in contributions from patrons and from the senior class to purchase a bronze statue for the foyer," he said. The statute under consideration would depict and would commemorate both the Park City Miners and the town's mining past, Dozier feels. The committee will be happy hap-py to talk to any artists who might have work suitable for the school, he explained. "When I came to the high school I had four objectives and this is the final one," said Dozier. "First I wanted to get the students under control, then I wanted to build pride in them. Next I wanted to have a strong curriculum and finally I wanted to provide a neat environment environ-ment for the students," he said. Computer purchases urged Ken Frerich, on behalf of a committee formed to study the school district's computer needs, presented a proposal to the board Tuesday for purchasing approximately $60,000 worth of Apple hardware. The board asked the committee to look for firm bids on the equipment and to present the proposal again by the Friday preceding the Aug. 23 board meeting. Frerich urged the board to consider making a decision as soon as possible. He said that Moose Smith had told the committee that he already had 60 students signed up to take computer science courses at the high school this fall. Frerich told the board that the committee had not realized it was working under any time constraints until Smith brought the issue to their attention. The proposal, Frerich said, would serve the district adequately for two years. But he added that the committee had not yet; been able to formulate a long-range long-range plan for computer acquisition for the schools.
