Show THURSDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1977 PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW, PLEASANT GROVE. UTAH THURSDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1977 Mud Bowl at Spanish Fork last Thursday Spanish Fork won last weeks "mud bowl" by beating Pleasant Grove 13-- The game played in the lowlands of Spanish Fork, a football field not noted for its ability to absorb water, was a wet mess from the start. Pg fumbled twice early in the game. Spanish was quick to punch both mistakes into the end zone. Cliff Christen-se- n scored from the one and Ron Hansen added the second from three yards out. Christensen added the point after. From that point it was "splish splash," with pools of water standing on the playing area and neither team mounting much of a drive. Gary Moosman put on a passing exhibition that took PG 78 yards deep into Spanish territiory. Scott Nash halted the threat with an interception in the end zone. y"? u , .," r ' ' .', ' .

Grantsville upset Lehi and the citizens of Lehi are really upset! DEER HUNT. . . THE GOOD Several hunters, including Jay Walker, Mike Shoell and Grant Atkinson were suc-cessful right here on Mt. Timpanogos. Apparently the deer were plentiful if you got high enough. THE BAD Harry and Shyrlan Man-ning of American Fork got their bucks, a four and two point, near Indianola. The drag back to camp was so long they decided to hang the deer in a tree and finish the next day. You guessed it. When they returned, all that was left were the two ropes, neatly coiled under the tree. They used to hang cattle rustlers. I wonder if deer rustlers deserve any better? MISSING RIFLE Paul Stewart went to see his fiancee Sunday night and forgot that P.G. has it share of thieves. Leaving his truck unlock in front of the house, he returned 45 minutes later to find his rifle had walked away. BY Jack Hill Add this to your top ten list of dumb sports manuvers. Seems that high school football schedules are prepared and published in April. Last Wednesday at 12:00 midnight, three ad-ministrators in Region Nine decided that Lehi had to many home games and forced the Pioneers by a 3-- 2 vote to switch and play Grantsville at Grantsville. All this just 15 hours before kickoff! No chance to advertize, Lehi found over 50 car loads LAST GAME Pleasant Grove concludes the 1977 season with a home game against Dixie tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. Dixie, a surprize 12-- 6 winner over Timpview last week will be a very good ' test.

Tutors, Readers Wanted in Program Utah County has its share of adults who cannot read. In a recent Readers Digest article, the following is quoted: "We've heard a lot about Johnny not being able to read. Indeed, some seven million children have severe reading problems. But John-ny's poor reading parents and older brothers and sisters are even more numerous. A four-yea- r Office of n study released in 1975 found that 23 million Americans aged 16 and up are functionally illiterate. They can't fill our forms for a driver's license or Social Security, can't understand the directions on a bottle of medicine, can't read a bed-time story to their children." Alpine School District is beginning a tutoring program for adults with reading problems. This program will be called "New Chance." A new and different way to teach reading to adults will be used. Tutors will be well trained in teaching reading skills. One tutor will work with one student in order to give the time and attention to the real needs of the student. Reading materials v. Ill be of interest to adults. Both students and tutors will en-joy this program. There will be no charge for this service. Materials will be provided. Volunteer tutors are needed. The tuutors' payment will be in the satisfaction they receive as they help someone to achieve success and happiness. Applications for tutors and students are being taken now. Interviews will be held during November. Tutors will be trained in December. The program starts on Jan. 3.

McCarty Executive Secretary Utah Education Association try to help children under-stand what's right and what's wrong about the ac-tions of people they watch on TV shows? Shouldn't children consider what's beautiful and what's ugly? what's worth watching and what's not? All is not dirtiness and daggers, trivia and tripe on TV. Much of what's on the tube is educational. But it's up to parents to guide the family away from thoughtless, trance-like- , viewing of anything that pops up on the tube. No, you wouldn't invite a robber into your home and run the risk of taking everything you own. But aren't we just about doing this if some influence steals the minds of our children? You wouldn't knowingly let a robber into your home. Or would you? Don't we do this, in a way, when we turn on the TV set and watch one of these "all rot and no plot crime shows? Actually, your children may see more of these programs than you do. Statistics show a youngster may have watched 15,000 hours of television by the time he or she graduates from high school. During that time, the young person would have spent only 11,000 hours in school classes. And what does tv offer them for all those hours in-vested? Well, for one thing, kids adopt heroes and heroines from the personalities they see on TV Maybe you wouldn't mind your son growing up to be like Dalas Quarterback Roger Staubach, but would you want him to be another "Barretta?" ; Then there are all the ; "adult" messages encoun-tered on TV shows we once ; considered comedies. Back in the good old days, ' a parent could yawn through the sight of Soupy Sales get-- ! ting hit with another pie, and ! consider it harmless, today, you dare not go to sleep for fear your young kids will be subjected to a rape scene. I And what happend to the mind, the character, the per-- ; sonality of the child TV wat-- ! cher? Authorities are : adivisng us to watch TV with ; our children to help them to ; understand what's real and what's make-believ- Shouldn't we adults also |
