t Camp David
Construction on a 12-story
classroom-office building is scheduled
to start Monday and preparations were
already underway Wednesday.
The 120,830-square-foot building is
being erected in the quadrangle boun¬
ded by the David 0. McKay Building,
the Smith Family Living Center, the
Eyring Science Center and the Joseph
Smith Building. Plans call for the con¬
tractor, Christiansen Brothers, Inc. of
Salt Lake City, to finish the structure
in the summer of 1980, Paul
Rasmussen, BYU construction
engineer, reported.
An addition will also be built on the
Smith Family Living Center which is
just north of the new building site. The
5,730 square-foot addition will be built
on a smaller section of the SFLC which
juts out to the northeast of the main
part of the building. The east end of
the main part of the building will also
be remodeled.
The SFLC project is scheduled to be
finished during the summer of 1979,
Rasmussen said.
“The two projects will help alleviate
the shortage of classroom, laboratory
and office space created when our
enrollment growth outpaced our
building facilities, a shortage further
aggravated when BYU sold its Lower
Campus complex in 1976,” BYU Presi¬
dent Dallin H. Oaks explained.
The 120-foot high classroom-office
building, which will be the tallest on
campus, will house the College of
General Studies, the College of Nurs¬
ing, the College of Social Sciences,
BYU’s Personal and Career Assistance
programs and related programs. It will
contain 19 lecture rooms which will
also be used as church meeting rooms
for BYU’s LDS student wards.
BYU grounds crews have already
removed lawn turf from the building
site and the contractor will fence the
area next week and move in construc¬
tion offices.
Fencing of the site has been planned
so there is a minimum of disruption for
campus traffic, Rasmussen explained.
Sidewalks on the perimeter will be left
unobstructed to allow pedestrian traf¬
fic to flow along the sidewalks. The
parking area immediately north of the
JSB will be fenced off during construc¬
tion of the new building.'
Rasmussen said “everything possi¬
ble” will be done to minimize the in¬
conveniences associated with construc¬
tion.
Very little soil and grass will be
wasted in construction of the new
building, Rasmussen explained. Much
of the dirt excavated from the MCKB
Quad will be used to level the site of
the new Comprehensive Clinic
Building, which will be built on the
eastern edge of campus. Sod from the
quad has been used to provide lawn for
new buildings at the Language Train¬
ing Mission.

Preparing for construction of the new building on campus, turf is being removed from the area. The building will
be located in the quad which is surrounded by the Smith Family Living Center, the David O. McKay Building,
the Eyring Science Center and the Joseph Smith Building.

As a precaution, the computers had been covered with
plastic drapes prior to removing the heads, but Accounting
Office official Jack Bailey feared that water might have
sprayed the underside of the equipment.
Bailey said the extent of the damage would not be known
for several days.
According to Lyle Curtis, director of ELWC Auxiliary
Services, the old sprinkler heads are being removed and the
outlets plugged to complete the change-over to a new fire-
security system which sprays a chemical instead of water,
which would ruin the computers.
conduct peace talks
on the line. By all accounts, no prior
agreements were worked out
beforehand to ensure a successful sum¬
mit, and officials do not rule out the
Mssibility of total failure at Camp
David, with either Begin or Sadat
angrily stalking out of the negotia¬
tions.
Under one “worst case” scenario, a
failure at the summit talks would
mean the definitive end to the peace
process and set Israeli-Egyptian rela¬
tions back to where they were at the
time of their Six Day War in October
1973.
But, as one official put it, the sum¬
mit will give both leaders the oppor¬
tunity to be “statesmen” and to be
responsive to the deep yearnings of
their countrymen for a durable peace.
Neither Begin nor Sadat wants to be
perceived as the one responsible for
reviving the prospect of another war,
the official observed.
Begin already has shown signs that
he is willing to try to improve his per¬
sonal relationship with Sadat, which
has deteriorated steadily since the two
last met in Egypt in December.
Begin said Tuesday night that the
recent personal attacks directed
against him from Cairo will play no
part in his thinking at Camp David.
“I shall never forget that Sadat came
to Jerusalem,” he said.
According to the U.S. officials, dis¬
cussion of the Carter initiative began
shortly after Sadat said 10 days ago
there will be no more Middle East
peace talks until Israel agrees that all
occupied territories be returned to the
Arabs and recognizes that the land
issue is non-negotiable.
As a first step, the administration
decided to send Secretary of State
Cyrus R. Vance to the Middle East to
try to avert a collapse of the peace
initiative. —
Only a handful of officials were
aware of Carter’s decision to invite
Begin and Sadat to the summit.
Deputy Secretary of State Warren
Christopher, who served as acting
secretaty of state during Vance’s mis¬
sion to the Middle East, reportedly
was not informed that the summit
would take place until two hours before
Tuesday’s official announcement.
Vance apparently enabled Sadat to
make a graceful retreat from his “no
more negotiations” statement of 10
days ago by stating the willingness of
the United States to become a full
partner in the peace talks.
This is consistent with Sadat’s lonp
held view that such a U.S. role would
be used to exert pressure on Israel to
make territorial concessions, par¬
ticularly with regard to the Israeli-held
West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
Vance, on the other hand, has said
repeatedly that the United States will
not take sides in the conflict but would
be willing to make new proposals in the
event of a deadlock.
Reports circulating here said that
Vance, who was returning to
Washington Wednesday night from
E^pt, may make a return trip to the
Middle East before the summit.
The official word, however, was that
no such plans were in the works, and
that Vance intends to take a vacation
during the second half of August.

The word “jeans” in BYU’s dress
code has been clarified to mean that
grubby men’s clothing is unacceptable
for women on campus, according to J.
Elliot Cameron, dean of Student Life.
“A female who wears a very nice pair
of clean jeans, provided they are
female-cut, is not in violation of stan¬
dards and should not be turned in,”
Cameron said Tuesday.
“It is a matter of style. If a female
student showed up on campus in a
clean pair of Star jeans, she would not.
be in violation of standards.
“I am not in a position of authority
to change the dress code,” he said. The
Guidelines for Dress and Grooming are
set by the First Presidency and the
Board of Trustees.
Levi brand
“I can tell you what the dress code
means. We used to have the word
‘Levi’s’ in our dress code, but the Levi
(Strauss) company demanded we stop
using their brand name,” Cameron
said.
Cameron’s interpretation is that if
women wear dirty jeans, even female-
cut, she needs to be turned in to Un¬
iversity Standards.
‘"The statement is very specific when
it says slacks or modest pantsuits, not
to include jeans. The purpose of this
directive is to get women to wear com¬
fortable, yet distinctly feminine
clothing,” Cameron said.
When asked specificially how the
word “jeans” is interpreted, Cameron
said it meant a man’s cut of pants.
The current dress code was worded
in 1971. There have always been dress
codes at BYU. “The dress code is as
old as the honor code,” Cameron said.
Changes word
The only change in the dress code
since its instigation was changing the
word “Levi’s” to “jeans.”
‘-I would not make the statement
that jeans are acceptable when the
First Presidency says they are not,”
Cameron addecl.
In order to change the one word from
“Levi’s” to “jeans” the administration
had to go back to the First Presidency,
he said.
“This is because ‘Levi’s’ were inter¬
preted by the First Presidency back in
1974 and within society as being a
blue-denim type of work trouser.
‘Levi’s’ mean more things than that.
Now we have some excellent suits and
expensive dressy outfits made in
denim,” Cameron said.
A “Levi” suit is not violating the
dress code, providing it is a modest
pantsuit. “Levi’s” is a brand name,
although the word has not always been
used as a brand name, Cameron said.
Cameron made it clear that he is not
making any contrary statement to the
directive just printed, but is merely go¬
ing by that directive.
The best way to clarify the jeans
issue is from the standpoint of style, he
said. “You and I both know when a
pair of slacks are grubby. Attractive
and well-groomed slacks are accep¬
table.
“If a male and female both showed
up in a pair of boys ‘Levi’s,’ the female
would be out of standards. The jeans
must be of a female cut and clean and
well groomed.”
Academic Vice President Robert K.
Thomas, speaking for President Dallin
H. Oaks, said this is nothing new.
“This matter is Dean Cameron’s area
of responsibility and I see no problem
with this interpretation.”
This interpretation and enforcement |
is “quite in the spirit of what was ex¬
pected over the last several years,” he
said.
“Back in the days of President
Reactions to Dean Cameron’s
clarification of the word “jeans” in the
dress code were varied.
Ben Bloxham, director of Family
and Local History Studies, said, “It’s
great!”
“The days when women do not wear
trousers are gone forever. I do not see
anything wrong with women wearing
nice jeans, although they do look more
feminine in dresses,” he said.
“I’ve been waiting to hear this for
two years,” said Ann Williams, 21, a
sociolo^ major from California. “It
was unfair the other way.”
Many people were upset by the
clarification.
Beverly Gillespie, 23, a former BYU
student from New Mexico, said she
thinks it is “terrible.”
“I really like jeans, but whenever
Wilkinson there was no denim
material allowed and this was strictly
enforced. However, now denim comes
out in so many different ways that it
can be considered quite fashionable,”
he said.
The dress code needed to be restated
so that it was understood in this man¬
ner by all students, he said.
they say jeans are okay, someone will
try to get away with grubby ones.”
Nate Clark, 20, from Farmington,
was not pleased either. “Playboy’s an¬
nual University Survey of the Nation’s
best-dressed coeds always ranks BYU
in the top five. I’m afraid this will
damage our rating,” he said.
Marilyn Arnold, assistant to the
president in charge of Special Prokcts,
said there has been no change. “Some
people thought jeans meant any
denim; however, nothing has been said
against women wearing dressy
denims,” she said.
Religion professor Howard Barron
said, “I think you have to be realistic,
but still dress only in a way which is
acceptable in the presence of your own
arents or even the prophet of the
ord.”
Business 'never better'
in Provo, mayor says
By JON WHITE
Universe Staff Writer
Despite the announced departure
of two downtown Provo automobile
dealerships, city officials say
business in Provo has never been
better.
“Provo’s biggest problem now is a
matter of controlling our growth
and achieving a balance between
residential and business growth,”
explained Mayor James Ferguson.
“Our city master plan, intended
to cover the next 25 years of growth,
is only three years old and we
already have to rewrite it,” he said.
“We have so many people wanting
to develop businesses in Provo that
the city now has to spend its time
deciding who will be allowed and
who will not.”
Ferguson said a year ago it was
not hard to find buildings for rent
and vacated businesses in the
downtown area. “Now it is almost
impossible to find downtown
buildings for lease.”
“The city commission has spoken
with several developers, in and out
of the city, who are talking about
redevelopment. These people were
not sought out by the city, but have
shown interest on their own.”
Ferguson said some of these
developments are in the downtown
area and others are elsewhere in
Provo. “Some are new develop¬
ments and some are renovations
Ferguson said both dealerships
which are moving had no place to
expand. He said the city and the
dealerships had discussed the idea
of keeping their inventories in Provo
and putting their showrooms
elsewhere, but no agreement has
been reached.
C.J. Harmon, owner of Harmon’s
Inc. Cadillac and Subaru
dealership, plans to stay in Provo.
He said the main reason the other
two dealerships are leaving is lack
of ownership of their facilities. The
dealers who own their buildings and
land in Provo, he said, have no in¬
tentions of moving.
“Our business is booming,” Har¬
mon said. “We have just finished
expanding and we are so busy that
already we are looking at further ex¬
pansion.
“We just turned in a $50,000
check for sales tax during the last
quarter. Our business has increased
fully one-third since this time last
year.
“I think this is indicative of the
increase in Provo business during
the past short while.”
He pointed out that nearly all of
the major auto dealers in Provo who
own their own facilities have just
finished renovations or are in the
rocess of remodeling. “If their
usinesses were going sour in Provo,
they would leave. But, they are not
leaving.”
Fred Givan, owner of the Givan
Ford dealership, told Ferguson,
“Provo is the place to be. I had
some thought of moving to Orem,
but I decided I would be better off
here.”

Pope borne to Vatican
Final devotional
Involvement brings growth
County levy set at 7.60, •
reduced from last year '{
VATICAN CITY (AP) — The body of Pope Paul
VI, sealed in an oak, lead and cypress coffin, was
borne to the Vatican Wednesday to lie in state
before the main altar at St. Peter’s Basilica until the
funeral Mass Saturday and burial in the grottos of
the church.
The simple coffin was flanked by a crucifix on one
side and a candle, signifying eternal life, on the
other.
A CToup of cardinals and a relatively small crowd
of about 35,000 mourners gathered before th?
columns in the vast St. Peter's square as the body
was brought in an 11-car motorcade from the papal
summer residence at Castel Gandolfo, where the 80-
year-old pontiff died of a heart attack Sunday.
Among the arrivals were a number considered
possible successors to Pope Paul — Italians
Sebastiano Baggio and Pericle Felici, and the Dutch
primate Johannes Willebrandt. ,

Mitchell, Haldeman seek parole
WASHINGTON (AP) - John N. Mitchell and
H.R. Haldeman, the last and hest-known of the
Watergate convicts, appealed to the full U.S. Parole
Commission on Wednesday to speed up their release
from prison.
The commission did not announce its ^decisions
immediately because of a heavy volume of other
cases. A spokesman said Mitchell and Haldeman
might not be told the outcome until Friday.
A smaller parole panel recently set Haldeman’s
release date for Dec. 20 and Mitchell’s for Jan. 19.
The two Nixon administration figures are appealing
that decision.

“Stretch vour soul by involving
yourself in the work of the Lord’’ ad¬
vised Neil D. Schaerrer, president of
the Young Men’s Organization of the
LDS Church at the final devotional
assembly of the Summer term.
Schaerrer, speaking Tuesday in the
deJong Concert Hall, HFAC, is a BYU
alumnus who is currently a practicing
attorney for the law firm of Armstrong,
Rawlings, West and Schaerrer.
Schaerrer began with a note of
humor saying, “Since it is the end of
the term, I want to tell a story about a
student who brought home bad grades
for the second quarter in a row and
proceeded to suggest to his father why
they were bad.
“ ‘Well dad, my grades are bad
again,’ the student confessed, ‘What
do you think my problem is — heredity
or my home environment?’ ’’
Contributions of youth
Youths, he emphasized, have made
monumental contributions to the
world at extremely young ages.
“In Europe, Wolfgang Mozart was a
child prodigy and played the
harpsichord and piano at four years of
age. At six-and-a-half, he was com¬
missioned by the empress of Vienna to
come to her castle to play for her.
While at 12 years of age he received an
imperial commission to compose and
conduct an opera from the honorary
archbishop of Salzburg,” said
Schaerrer.
“Joseph Smith was only 15 years old
when he saw God the Father and Jesus
Christ,’’ he continued.“Jesus Christ
was just a young boy when he ex¬
plained that he must be about his
Father’s work.’’
More priesthood holders
Now is an extremely exciting and
important time for young people.
“With 266,000 young men holcung the
Aaronic Priesthood and power of God
in the Church, it becomes a well known
fact that there are more priesthood
holders living now than at any other
time in the history of the Church,” he
said.
There exists at this point in time the
most noble spirits, the best trained,
the strongest and the most righteous to
gain the most yardage in terms of
spreading the gospel. “We are those
great spirits to be called to serve in the
last days,” he commented.
“In contrast to this; we must ask
ourselves, have we ever had as many
murders; profanity in plays, movies,
periodicals, and in the homes; im¬
morality; drunkeness; venereal disease
and divorces?” .
LDS President Spencer W. Kimball
described missionaiy work as “the
most important service in the world.”
“Those who are prepared to do mis¬
sionary work here will be prepared to
do missionary work in the spirit
world,” Kimball said.
The Lord said, “I will hasten my
The 1978 Utah County mill
levy has been set at 7.60 mills by
the County Commissioners,
representing a reduction of 1.22

County auditor Elwood

were involved in the decision
lowering this year’s mill levy.
First was the increase in county

From its beginnings in 1830, it took
120 years to grow to a million people.
The Church grew to two million people
in only 16 years, three million in nine
years, and four million in two years.
There has been a 43 percent increase
in missionaries since 1974 with 26,700
full time missionaries in the field to¬
day.
Schaerrer said, “Our challenge is to
assist in this great work. The battle is
raging and there are too many
casualties among the young people
falling away from the Church today.
“We must respond to the call of the
prophet through our strenrth, desire
and ability to serve the Lord,” he said.
“Those who struggle for the hearts of
the youth are on the front of the great
battle of the century.”
“There is no better nor more com¬
plete solution than the gospel. I have
found that there is more gospel taught
in my law office many times than law,”
he explained.
Schaerrer said several principles of
service are needed to live oy. One is a
sincere interest in seeing and helping

Another is a testimony of the Gospel

“All these developments mean new

Ferguson explained.
Ferguson said he is not basing
Provo^s future economic growth on the
impact of the Heritage Mountain
development.
“If the-developers of Heritage Moun¬
tain have problems and the project
stalls, it should not affect our future,”
he said. “Provo should not feel any
pressure to keep the project going if the
developers do not follow the guidelines
set for the development.
“We will not act on the master plan
or any phase of the project before the
Forest Service does. The Forest Seryice
must give their blessings on the project
before we act on it in any way.

I imp Cave’s appeal
] reduces problem
(impanogos Cave National Monument in
lerican Fork Canyon is a popular place,
he biggest problem faced at the monument is the
e numbers of visitors, according to Superinten-
t Sherma Bierhaus.
here are days when not all visitors can be accom-
iated on cave tours, she said,
uring the month of June, 24,000 visitors toured
ijicave, resulting in a 68 percent increase over the
j dous high of 14,600 recorded in June 1976.
yWe limit tours to 20 people and require reserva-
s for 10 or more persons on weekdays. No reser-
ons are accepted on Saturdays and Sundays, or
days and visitors are accommodated on a first-
e, first-served basis,” Mrs. Bierhaus said,
ihe cave is usually open from May 1 until late Oc-
3ir or early November. This year, however, the
i is scheduled to close for the year shortly after
Jor Day to allow for the replacement of the ex-
j jg lighting system.
- he original wiring, which was installed over 50
s ago, will be replaced with a new system that

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A judge has tossed out
an $11 million neglirence suit against NBC, ruling
that a lawyer failed to prove the televised movie
“Bom Innocent” was intended to incite the rape of a
9-year-old girl.
Superior Court Judge Robert Dossee ruled Tues¬
day that NBC was protected by the First Amend¬
ment guarantee of free speech.
Attorney Marvin Lewis, representing the rape vic¬
tim and her mother, said he planned to appeal the
dismissal immediately.
“As long as our neck was on the block and the axe
had to fall, it’s just as well that it happened today,”
Lewis said Tuesday. “This gets us to the appellate
courts even faster.”
Lewis said his appeal would challenge the judge’s
“excessive authority” in narrowing legd grounds for
the trial and preventing Lewis from arguing
negligence and recklessness.
Dossee, in dismissing the case, referred to his
previous ruling that the only way Lewis could
proceed was by arguing that NBC intended to incite
a crime by showing the rape of a young girl with a
B lumber’s plunger. Lewis did not follow that ruling,
'ossee said.
Dossee had decided that Lewis would have to
prove the network violated the constitution by “ad¬
vocating or inciting” an immediate crime, such as
rape. Lewis had responded that he could not at¬
tempt to prove such a contention.
Dossee cited a 1969 U.S. Supreme Court decision
in an Ohio case which determined that advocacy of
New kid on campus

advantage Monday of the fact that libraries are

full night’s activities.
force was unconstitutional if it “incited ... imminent
lawless action.” Lewis said he would be “idiotic as
an attorney” to attempt to prove such an allegation.
Assaulted after movie
Olivia Niemi, now 13, was sexually assaulted with
a beer bottle by three girls on a San Francisco beach
four days after the film was shown in 1974. The girl’s
mother, Valeria Niemi, said the attack was
prompted by the TV film and asked $1 million in
compensatory damages and $10 million in punitive
damages against NBC and its local affiliate, KRON-
TV.
Jay Gerber, associate general counsel for NBC,
said Dossee’s ruling represented “an extremely
significant victory. We think that the ruling means
that unless incitement can be shown, suits of this
kind will not lie as a matter of law against any
broadcast media or newspaper.”
Lewis said the only person jailed in the attack had
confirmed by deposition that the crime was inspired
by the movie.
He said Sharon Smith had testified she was
“instigated to participate in the rape” by previews
and talk about the movie.
Charges were dropped against the two other girls
and a boy who alledgedly stood lookout. Miss Smith
is free after serving a prison sentence.
The assailants were not mentally ill, Lewis
argued, and were influenced by what they saw on
television — a lengthy, particularly graphic scene,
which showed no punishment for the yiolence^^^

Animal shelter noise
reaches roaring level
Noise pollution at the Utah County Animal
Shelter has been found to reach as high as 70
decibels.
Wayne Sechrest, director of the Department of
Animal Regulation, presented the Utah County
Commissioners Wednesday with information about
the problem and bids for the installation of
acoustical tile in the ceiling to reduce noise.
Sechrest said hospitals and restaurants register
around 45-55 decibels and that anything above 70 is
generally considered unhealthy. He said his purpose
for informing the commission of the situation was
“not to push anything,” but to say there was a
problem.
The Humane Society has commented on the
excess noise at the shelter before. “We’ve known
about the problem for quite some time now and are
working on improving things,” Sechrest said,
“I just think it’s something that should be
changed. It would be beneficial for those who work
there, people who come, and for the dogs them¬
selves. People always comment on the noise,” he ad¬
ded.

Cougar fans loyal
to cage program
Despite a 1977-78 basketball record of 12-17,
BYU’s attendance at home games was third highest
in the nation, t^ped only by NCAA champion Ken¬
tucky and WAC league member New Mexico.
According to figures released by the NCAA, the
Cougars averaged 17,168 fans per game during the
1977-78 season, an increase of over 2,500 over the
previous year.
BYU was also ranked among the tm ten in percen¬
tage of increase, and among the top five in Division I
overall season attendance.
While Cougar attendance was impressive, the
WAC also established itself as a major drawing
power. The WAC’s 1977-78 attendance was secona
only to the Big Ten Conference, drawing 1,252,553
fans for an average of over 10,400 fans per game.
Of the top 25 teams in Division I, four were from
the WAC: New Mexico, BYU, Utah, and Arizona.
NCAA-champion Kentucky completely
dominated attendance figures, leading in average
home attendance (23,335) and total attendance for
all games (586,250).
New Mexico was runner-up to Kentucky in all
major categories, averaging 17,240 at home, just 72
fans per game more than BYU’s average.
Officials are anticipating another jump in atten¬
dance during the 1978-79 season. Tlianks to the
NCAA regionals, scheduled for Provo, and the
NCAA finals, scheduled for Salt Lake City, college
basketball interest in Utah is expected to soar to new
heights.

Wait Until Dark' for suspense
WnteMainment
UnivBnse
“Wait Until Dark” will tiptoe onto the stage 8;30
Thursday night at the Castle Theater and threatens
to remain until Aug. 19.
The play is a spine-tingling story about a young
blind woman who is pursued by three dangerous
criminals in search of their misplaced wealth of con¬
traband. There is a famous fright scene at the end of
the play when, after being terrorized by the con men,
Susie is attacked by Roat, the criminal leader.
“Wait Until Dark” is known as a movie which
starred Audrey Hepburn, Alan Arkin and Richard
Crenna.
The producers Ron Richardson and Lynn Frost
advise theater-goers to bring sweaters and/or
blankets to the outdoor theater, which is located at
1300 E. Center Street in Provo, behind the Utah
State Hospital.
Children under six will not be admitted. Tickets
are available at the door.
Jenni Nash Abbott will star as Susie, while Cory
Sprague will play Roat. The cast also includes Rick
VanNoy as the husband, Randy King as Carlino,
Rick Macey as the suave Mike, and little Pam Evans
as Gloria.
Jenni Abbott has appeared at the Castle in the
past seasons in “The Imaginary Invalid,” and
“Godspell.” She also worked in theater in Califor¬
nia, where she appeared in “Hello Dolly” as Irene
Malloy, and Maria in “The Sound Of Music.”
Cory Sprame has appeared in BYU productions,
as well as “The Diary of Anne Frank. ’’He also has
played Nathan Detroit in “Guys and Dolls”at the
Castle last year.
The director, Michael Abbott, is here from Las
Vegas, where he was formerly involved in live
theater as light and set designer for several produc¬
tions.
The Castle Summer Theater is aided by the Utah
State Division of Fine Arts.

The awards and their recipients ap¬
proved by the university’s Board of
Trustees are as follows:
The Jesse Knight Industrial
Citizenship Award to Henry
Marcheschi of Pasadena, Calif., presi¬
dent and chairman of the board of
American Telecommunications Cor¬
poration.
The Franklin S. Harris Fine Arts
Award to J. Stuart and Clara
McMaster of Salt Lake City, noted
singers who have performed at several
thousand funerals, missionary
farewells and other special occasions
during the past 50 years.
The David O. McK^ Humanities
Award to Emma Lou Thayne of Salt
Lake City, noted author and poet,
speaker and educator.
The recipients will be recognized at
the 9:30 a.m. Commencement
ceremonies in the Marriott Center.
Formal presentations of the awards
will take place in the three respective
colleges that day: College of Business
and Graduate School of Management,
College of Fine Arts and Communica¬
tions and College of Humanities.
Marcheschi founded Telecommun¬
ications Corporation in 1967. From its
headquarters in EL Monte, the rapidly
growing electronics company manufac¬
tures telecommunications equipment
sold to telephone companies
throughout the U.S. and Canada. '
In 1972 he was chosen National
Small Businessman of the Year by the
President of the United States and the
Small Business Administration.
He presently serves as mesident of
an elders quorum in the LDS church.
The McMasters began sliming
together while attending Box Elder
High School, performing in operas,
glee clubs and other musical programs.
McMaster sang in a cmartet to put
himself through the University of
Utah, where he graduated in 1926. Af¬
ter one year in law school he married
Clara Watkins, and they have con¬
tinued to sing together for more than
50 years.
After graduating, he and a colleague
established a law office. In the depth of
the depression he was offered a legal
job on the staff of the district counsel
of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.
Later he was promoted to regional
solicitor of the Department of the In¬
terior, where he served until he retired
in 1970.
Upon retirement, he was given the
Department of the Interior’s highest
award — the Distinguished Service
Award. He and his wife were then
called by the LDS Church to preside
over the Kansas-Missouri Mission,
with headquarters in Independence,
Mo.
Mrs. Thayne earned a B.A degree in
English at the University of Utah in
1945 and an M.A. degree in creative
writing in 1970.
Her first novel, “Never Past the
Gate,” was published in 1975.
For seven years she was on the
general board for the Young Women’s
MIA of the LDS Church.
A group of scientists and in¬
dustrialists will gather at BYU Mon¬
day for a three-day technical sym¬
posium on a group of chemical com¬
pounds which can do everything from
carrying oxygen in the blood to helping
recover valuable metals from solu¬
tions.
They will be attending the Second
Symposium on Macrocyclic Com¬
pounds, sponsored by BYU’s Thermo¬
chemical Institute, ^e chairmen of
the symposium are Dr. Reed M. Izatt,
professor of chemistry at BYU and Dr.
James J. Christensen, professor of
chemical engineering.
Participants will come from
throughout the United States and from
France, Italy, Israel, Japan, Norway,
the Soviet Union, Poland, West and
East Germany and Canada.
Izatt and Christensen were able to
establish the symposium and bring it
to the attention of scientists around
the world because their own research
with macrocyclic compounds is inter-
nationally known. They will be among
those whose findings are reported dur¬
ing the symposium.
“We know that as we bring these
people together, it can’t help but
benefit scientific study” laztt said. If it
were not for such a symposium, he ex¬
plained, some of these distinguished
scientists would communicate with
each other about their research only
through articles in scientific publica¬
tions.
The aim of the symposium is to
promote learning and spontaneous in¬
teraction among the researchers and
industrial representatives present, he
said. The papers which are read at the
symposium will not be published; it is
hoped this will make researchers feel
free to report preliminary findings that
may be of value to others.
The symposium is sponsored by the
Research Division of the College of
Engineering and Technology, the
Chemistry Department and the
Thermochemical Institute; BYU
Special Courses and Conferences; the
Parish Chemical Co. of Provo; and the
United States Department of Energy.

Universe Staff Writer
A resignation from Orem’s director
of finance was accepted and a plan to
reorganize the existing financial
department was approved on a trial
basis in the Orem City Council
meeting Tuesday night.
Alan Homer, Orem City’s Director of
Finance, submitted his resignation to
City Manager Albert Haines. Homer
said his reason for resigning was “out¬
side business interests.” Tne resigna¬
tion is effective Sept. 1.
After the council accepted the
resignation, Haines said there was an
urgent need to replace Homer and
presented a plan for the council’s ap¬
proval.
Haines said rather than replace the
professional staff by one, but would
also relieve the executive staff of one.
He felt it would result in a savings of
dollars and increased efficiency.
Haines said the plan “would focus
all supportive areas into one depart¬
ment and would free up the day-to-day
administrative re^onsibilities” of the
city manager’s office.
He also felt it would ease the ad¬
ministration of all other city depart¬
ments as well.
After hearing the proposal, the coun¬
cil decided to approve the plan on a
two-week trial basis. This will allow
the council time to study the ramifica¬
tions and correct potential problems.
The plan will come before the council
for review in two weeks.
In other business, council authorized

finance director, _a_ reorganization of . the _prin ting of 2,500 copies of the
- pre _ _ _ _
should be considered. He said imder
the present system, the city manager
was directly over the financial director
but the assistant city manager was
outside this line function. He said the
assistant city manager’s present duties
are vague.
Under his proposed structure, the
finance director would be eliminated
completely, Haines said. The assistant
city manager would take over most of
his responsibilities, including finance,
data processing and personnel. A new
accountant would need to be hired to
take up the slack.
According to Haines, this
reorganization would increase the
recenth completed Orem History
Book. Community Press submitted the
lowest bid of $9,000. The book will
have a hardback cover and will be 200
pages.
The council also authorized a loan
from the Mayor and Council Fund of
$4,000 toward printing of the book.
The money will be replaced when the
books are sold.
The council approved a timetable on
the construction of the Geneva
Neighborhood Park. They asked,
however, that the proposed advisory
committee be made up of people who
reside in the area where the park will
be constructed, to get the views of peo¬
ple affected by the project.

OPINION-COMMENT
Unsigned editorials represent the position
of the editorial board of the Daily Universe.
Moderation needed
in mall construction
University Mall, Boardwalk Mall, Cottonwood Mall, Valley Fair
Mall, Fashion Place Mall, ZCMI Center, Academy Square, Cache
Valley Mall, Crossroads Mall. Where will it all stop? America is being
“mauled” by malls.
The American public, in an age where convenience is everything and
a walk down a city street instead of down a carpeted, air conditioned
hall to patronize a store is unthinkable^has turned to malls as a symbol
of the new feeling of relaxation that is covering America. And, perhaps
' '^stifiably so. Malls provide a good way to have a lot of stores within
easy walking distance, in addition to theaters, restaurants and specialty
shops.
The head of Salt Lake City’s Auerbach’s department store was
quoted recently as saying that the recent development of the ZCMI
Center had not really hurt their business, three blocks down, much at
all. In fact, he was quoted as saying that the mall had perhaps helped in
some instances.
Nevertheless, any more rapid increase in the amount of concentrated
malls in the area should be viewed with a little bit of skepticism. Malls
are not a cure-all; nor will they always be successful. Some malls across
the country have closed, or are in financial trouble, according to
national news reports. While the malls in this area are alive and healthy
now, a rapid overbuilding by complusive developers could mean dis¬
aster for the malls or private small business.
Downtown Provo merchants, though somewhat paranoid at times
about the University Mall’s success, have in years past stayed alive and
afloat, with even some increase in trade. The amount of cars parked in
downtown Provo’s parking lots on a typical Friday afternoon proves
that the businesses aren’t failing. If a business has something to sell, it
will sell, no matter where it is located.
Utah Valley, in the midst of a building boom, is especially vulnerable
to a potential problem in overbuilding. Provo’s Academy Square
development, announced 2 years ago, is still not to the building stage,
partly because of problems finding tenants. 'Two stores of a national
chain are within a block and a half of each other; one inside the Univer¬
sity Mall, one out. Even the well-established University Mall oc¬
casionally loses a tenant. If malls increase in number faster than the
area can keep up with them, many will lose.
Some moderation needs to be exercised in the planning and building
of mall developments. Reputable companies need to be dealt with by
city governments; companies that will follow through after building,
and make sure the area can handle another shopping center before
starting the bulldozers.
Perhaps then we won’t have to worry about the possibilities of failing
businesses if the growth rate slows down, but the malls continue to
proliferate.
Left-, right-wing radicals
ignore other viewpoints
The horrendous drama that was
enacted on a Salt Lake City street last
week when a mother coaxed or threw
her children off of an 11th floor balcony
brings up a subject that should be dis¬
cussed more than it already is — the
problem of radicals.
A radical is the kind of person that
believes so much in a cause that he
totally closes his mind to any other
kind of beliefs.
The mother, a former BYU student,
followed the exaniple of her husband,
who also went to BYU, in committing
suicide after he gassed himself with
carbon monoxide in a closed truck
earlier in the week. Both, joined by
their entire family, were radicals who
saw only their side and ignored all
others. Their lifestyle was one of total
isolation from other ideas, even to the
point of educating their own children
in their home.
Be it left or right wing, radicals ex¬
ist. Hitler was a right-wing radical who
thought he knew what was best for his
country. Mussolini and Communists
were too, while Joseph McCarthy’s
witchhunts led the nation into a
national era of radicalism where
Americans were searching for Com¬
munists under every bush.

Jeans ruling
gives women
change in styl
It is hard to believe that the
ministration, by sheer accident,
been kind enough to “clarify” the d
code.
After innumerable women have 1
turned in to Standards, denied
exams and prohibited from attem
the Varsity Theater, it is incompre'
sible that no one thought to tell us
“women’s style jeans” were acti
permissible.
The student body found out by
dent.

Though some have been denied ac

sexist ruling.
And now we found all the hr
These people, each one of them as if
they were wearing blinders, led their
nations into a state of comparative
ignorance and stupidity, as they
taught them to ignore all but one way.
Of all radicals, perhaps the radical
right-wing is the worst; for they never
listen to other ideas, while a true
liberal will at least agree that many
points of view exist. However, the psy¬
chological blinders that these people
put on force them to see only their
view.
It seems silly to say that only one
political philosophy is right; this na¬
tion was founded on the premise of
freedom of ideas and speech, and long
may that ideal remain healthy and
true. The nation will only grow when a
diversity of thought exists; when only
one line of thought exists, the result is
stagnation.
Beware of radicals who say that all
other political beliefs are false. Politics
in a republic such as the United States
is a give and take proposition much
akin to marriage, where differing view¬
points are welded into a well-rounded
compromise, representing all view¬
points.
“Income redistribution” is a favorite
buzz expression frequently used by
conservatives when arguing against
social programs. The term stimulates
revulsion in the minds of anti-welfare
zealots.
Such people are disgusted at the
thought of their income being
redistributed among those who have
not earned it, especially if they enter¬
tain the simplistic and popular image
of a welfare recipient as a lazy, dis¬
honest bum. Many Mormons are fond
of quoting church leaders about “the
evils of the dole” to justify their op¬
position to any form of “income
redistribution.”
Yet “income redistribution” on a
voluntary basis at least, is a basic tenet
of the Judeo-Christian ethic on which
modem western society is supposedly
founded. The Bible is replete with
directives to give to the poor and
adherents to the LDS faith need look
no further than King Benjamin’s ad¬
dress in the Book of Mormon to find
support for the notion.
It could be argued that government
entered the business of social service
when private citizens and organiza¬
tions failed to shoulder their respon¬
sibilities.
But indications are that a substan¬
tial portion of the public wants to see
the government get out of the business.
In the wake of the tax revolt, opinion
polls show that most people want to
see social programs get the axe before
anything else. This gives rise to a cou¬
ple of questions.
Are the anti-welfare people willing
to chop out every program which falls
under the broad classification of public
While public welfare programs-
generally are hallmarked by fraud and
failure, some social agencies have
demonstrated success and vitality. Un¬
der the Comprehnsive Employment
and Training Act (CETA) the federal
government provides subsidies to em¬
ployers for hiring and training jobless
citizens. Many have been able to find
hope and new directions thanks to
funds administered under this
program.
On a state level, the Utah Division of
Rehabilitation Services prepares hun¬
dreds of handicapped people yearly for
the job market. It is economically self-
sufficient because of the number of
people it takes off the welfare roles and
the taxable income which results from
their new-found occupations.
More importantly, are public
citizens willing to assume the respon-
sibilty to take care of the unfortunate if
social programs are cut from govern¬
ment expenditures? Somehow the
thought does not inspire confidence.
It is easy to imagine the average up¬
per and middle class citizen indulging

poor classes steal to survive and the
elderly eat dog food to ward off starva¬
tion. With all it’s inadequacies, the
welfare state is preferable to such a
situation.
At any rate, there is a simple solu¬
tion for the individual who can not
abide forced redestribution of his in¬
come. It involves calculating how
much of his tax money is spent on
public assistance. He may then donate
that amount to the LDS Welfare
Program or some other worthy founda¬
tion. This would enable him to legally
deduct that amount from his income
tax.
He has thus outfoxed the govern¬
ment while, at the same time meeting
his moral obligation.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A single
vote ^ the Senate last week shows
why Congress probably cannot be
counted on to help cut spending and
restrain inflation without a lot more
)ublic pressure than there has been so
pubh
far.
Despite pointed criticism by some
senators, the lawmakers voted 65-13 to
complete work on the most expensive
federal building in history, a new
Senate office building to cost $135
million.
The new building will have 16-foot
office ceilings, a gymnasium, an indoor
tennis court, a rooftop restaurant and a
marble atrium. The cost of all this
when initially proposed in 1974 was
supposed to be $48 million, mean'
the cost has tripled in four years.
Even though the taxpayers are mak¬
ing known their demands that law¬
makers spend the public’s money with
greater care, the messare of the vote on
the new Senate office building is that
Congress is not yet convinced it must
take the first step when its own in¬
terests are at stake.
“How do we get involved in the con¬
cept that absolutely anything goes
around here?” asked a frustrate Sen.
John C. Danforth, R-Mo., during the
debate on the new office building.
Perhaps only when there is a public
outcry that is loud enough to drown
out the pleadings of special interest
CToups, will the Congress then finally
listen.

Letters to editor
The project was under way before
the vote and the $16 million spent so
far has bought part of a steel
framework that would be an eyesore if
work were to cease. And it is not hard
to make a case that the senators need
more space.
But Congress has voted to stop pro¬
jects that have been under way before
on the theory that it did not make
sense to throw good money after bad.
“I can’t imagine a more galling sym¬
bol of congressional arrogance,” said
Sen. William Proxmire, D-Wis. “This
building is a farce and it ought to be
stopped,” added Sen. Jesse Helms, R-
N.C.
But Sen. John Chafee, R-R.L, say¬
ing the “Mussolini-style building is an
outrage,” lost on a 45-29 vote in his ef¬
fort to have construction stopped.
One senator, noting that estimates
of the cost could increase to $200
million, observed the limit could be
raised later.
It would be hard to argue, of course,
that stopping work on the office
building by itself would have made a

Seeks excellence
Editor:
Let me begin by confessing that I
have seen none of the following produc¬
tions: “Saturday’s Warrior,” “Latter-
day Ruth,” “My Turn on Earth,”
“Man of La Mancha,” “A Midsummer
Night’s Dream” or “The Great Brain.”
Nevertheless, I should like to make
at least one observation: I find it just a
little curious that a people who give so
much lip service to the term “perfec¬
tion” can, at the same time, go to such
lengths looking for excuses to avoid the
pursuit of another favorite term, “ex¬
cellence.” It reminds me of the similar
and all-too-frequent cries of those who
claim to understand “eternity,” yet
cannot comprehend a mere four-and-a-
half billion years.

this year.
But at a time when polls and voter
actions show the public is deeply
worried about spendmg and inflation,

to that concern and will do something
about it.
Reveals survey
vey and a few of my feelings about the
attitudes found
The majority of people interviewed
felt that the outcome of the Bakke case
was beneficial to them and the com¬
munity and that a quota system
represented too much government en¬
croachment in their lives. They did not
feel that the Bakke decision damaged
the advancement of minorities and
that it would not adversely affect affir¬
mative action programs. They also
didn’t feel that federal programs, such
as Basic Education Opportunity
Grants for college tuition should give
priority to minority groups. They felt
that these grants should be distributed
based on need.
Most of the members surveyed felt
that active discrimination against
minorities in the academic and
business worlds existed, but not to a
great extent. They didn’t feel that
minority groups should necessarily be
represented in the professional and
technical occupations in proportion to
the population as a whole.
One of the conclusions I rea Jl"
from the survey is that Mormor '
Provo agree with the mainstreai
American public opinion on this I
sion, as the results of my survej
similar in many ways to the resd| -i
national polls dealing with v£^ 0
