Continued from Page 4B “D.A.W.G.S” which means Descending Accurately With Grace and Style or Speed. As 1 start my next run. 1 see a yellow cross on a wine-colered parka. The cross represents a member of the ski patrol. He’s waiting for hazardous skiers who ski too fast and out of con trol, or both. He's just spotted me. but this time. 1 am not pursued. If he does catch me, he can warn me verbally. If he catches me a se cond time, he can pull my ticket. I don’t like that. Ski patrol members an; a part of an elite team, and they are effective for skier safety. They are the mountain-area law. I'm far enough away now. 1 switch to roach speed. I love this part. I sometimes pretend I’m being chased like in a James Bond movie or a contender for an Olympic gold medai. I'm in control My body is low for less wind drag, skis shoulder width apart for more stability. My hands are straight out in front of me. so I keep my weight slightly forward. Hup, hup. hup. My legs are starting to bum. I’m breathing heavily — but I'm still smiling. Skiing the bar The lodge is coming into sight. Time to ski the bar. This sport is almost as excting as the mountain sport. Now, 1 can use a hockey slop for a dramatic en trance; nobody really secs me or pays any attention. After getting my skis off, I separate them so they are less likely to be stolen. lust walking up the steps to the lodge is a workout. The lodge is big. wooden and noisy. I see lots of faces, fashion and laughter. Everybody is smiling. 1 go up another flight towards the roar of the crowd. I order my favorite imported beer. I see some friends at a table by the window. I sit and talk of the need for new snow. 'Riding' Elevator Shaft After I get to the top again. I yell to some ski DAWGS to take ihe Elevator Shaft, we all line up with our tips hanging over the edge. Gus is first. Me makes it look easy. My turn: I make four turns and yell hup!

My climb uphill to retrieve my skis — and hat and glasses and poles — is difficult. Now I need to put them back on and catch-up. We split up after the run. They go back for one more. I’m too tired after my hike, so I pack everything up and go home to rest before the party tonight. All 1 need to do is get dressed. A T-shirt with a ski slogan like "Ski Kansas" will do. If it is bit terly cold, I’ll wear a sweater and a parka. A bandana is op tional but a hat is mandatory, leans, faded, of course, are adquate. 1 thumb a ride to the front door of the party. The music is loud and a little obnoxious. I let myself in and see Kim talking to (lus. She waves at me and yells that the beer is in the refrigerator. I yell "thank you " Floaters I talk with guests about the need for new snow. AS .more guests show up. Kirn hands out “floator." an imported freer as a base and a stout freer on top. They tBste great, and the party starts hopping. After we finish the floaters, people begin jumping into Kim’s pool. It is time for the hairiest dive competition. The winner has the biggest air. best pose and worst splash. Phil wns with his version of "St. Helens Shaken, with a twist!" Then someone yells "It's snowing!" A cheer rings out The dump! As it snows, we talk of virgin powder and "figure eights." The early bird catches the first tracks so I decide it is time to go home and dream of tomorrow. When the powder is its deepest, a snorkel comes in handy. Well, that's pretty much how the frost or even the Worst days of skiing will go: So, I'll pro bably see you in the' fashion parade or in the bar skiing I'll he there, and we'il both la smiling; . ; • • • _ Problems Continued from Page 2B But Ueberroth has sensed that a brewing situation might . / explode.
