Jro 225th Statlon Ho.pital, APO 189 New York City, New York Dear HUlh: February 24, 1965 Bill and I seem to have gotten over the effect. of our European jaunt and are now bu.ily engaged ln the ski businel' here. It was nlce seeing you and your wife again, Hugh. However, I am extremely up.et about a couple of things. First of all, 1 Via aprroached by .everal member. of the American Delegation with regard to your particular Itatus In PSLA. I could only tell them that I felt that you were not actlve in the Div1.10n (ISlA). and that therefore your Itatus in PSIA was not valid. Bill La.h wa. attacked by leveral of the individuals who .aw you because of your ule of the pln to galn admission to 11ft., lift line., etc., in Europe. Such a thlng would be perfectly alright of cour.e if you were actively teaching and otherwi.e active. In addition, rumor ha. it that you were highly critical of the American Demon.tratton Team. Thi •• of cour.e, i. in direct conflict with people who were there from an autboratative .tandpoint, such a. Mikky Hutter. I con.ider Mikky a mo.t capable ski technician and an honelt reporter, and 1 a •• ure you he wa. very favorably impressed with the Delegation and the Demon.tration. Flnally, Hugh, thil is most up.ettin~ because I know that Bill, who ha. known you longer than I, went out of his way to hail you down in Badga.teln to talk with you. Thh wa don. even though we were elwptt way behind In our ewe in­dividual scheduling. I thlnk you will agree that thi. hardly repre.ent. the kind of behavior we would expect from either a .kl instructor or an officer. Huah, ina.much al you have retired from both PSIA and ISlA I have been requa.t­ed to a.k that you return your ISlA pin to me, and the PSIA pin to Jimmy John.ton. RLV: Ip Sincere ly. Richard L.

I hope they are appropriate. I lmderstand there will be an exam on Sat., riarch 27, at Beaver also. From Nr.

If the exam for the Kelley Canyon people is held on Saturday, I would again volunteer to be a backup examiner. ~Je ';vould also like to invite the examiners to a private dinner at the Beaver l:'iountain Lodge following the Sunday exam. Sincerely, Robert F.

The Board of Directors was quite concerned about available snow in the spring. However, certainly the cover at this time indicates that we should have good snow barring an early spring runoff. A later date for the meeting has been set in order to afford an opportunity for Sun Valley instructors to attend. please note the pre-registration blank attached. The progress of the meeting will be greatly facili­tated if you will use the accompanying blank to register by mail. You will note a change in this year's program. Skiing will be done in the morning only. Lectures in the afternoon, and what you will in the evening. It was felt that we would all be a more alert group by following this format which is similar to PSIA, rather than skiing in the afternoon and trying to have sessions in the evening. A central bulletin board will be used to announce all program changes. The agenda is as follows: Thursday - April 22 12:00 noon 8:00 p.m. Friday - April 23 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. 9:30 to 12:00 Noon 12:30 2:15 to 3:15 p.m. 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. Evening Saturday - April 24 9:30 a.m. -----_._._-_ ...

It is my personal feeling that this is important in order to permit communication be­tween the members from the standpoint that this is your organization and we want the participation of all.

Ihave taught skiing as much as time has allowed this season, and trul~ felt that each student that was in my classes recieved my full effort of teaching abilities and love of skiing. Iwas assigned to work with Mr. Dave Parkinson on the publicity committee and I wrote Ski Tips for the radio and placed I,S.I.A posters in ski stores in Salt Lake City and Ogden.

I shall make every effort to con­tinue the progress that my predecessors have made. Bob Zeigler, Sec­retary, and Craig Bennion, Treasurer and I will be replacing former officers who were extremely capable and experienced in the field of administration. Enclosed are the minutes of our recent general meeting and board meetings, in which you will find names of board members and Committee chairmen of the association. Any of them, as well as myself, will be pleased to discuss association business with you at any reasonable time. Our Association is a growing one, and with increase in membership there is also an expected increase in problems. If we will all work together, the advantages of a larger membership will far overbalance any problems. Keep in mind always that our main concern is the skiing (and about to ski) public. As certified instructors, we know our standards and capabilities, let's not waste too much time telling one another about them. Instead, let's let the skiing public in on our secrets at every available opportunity. Sincerely, ~ Lou Lorenz, Presid nt Intermountain Ski Instructors Association June 11, 1965 TO: All Members of ISlA FROM: Bob Zeigler, Secretary SUBJECT: Spring Clinic Minutes Please find enclosed the minutes from the Spring Clinic meetings. During the transfer of the secretarial job, I assure you there was some loss in accuracy of the minutes. I ask you to read them carefully and send any additions or corrections to me. Thanks goes to Judy West for recording the meetings in shorthand -- it was a great help. I must say IIhats off II to my predecessor, Lloyd Frank, who has devoted untold hours to the duties of this office. Thank you from myself and I feel free to say from everyone else in ISlA. One of my first projects for the year will be to issue the By-laws in a small booklet form and include, certification policy, clinic and dues requirements, etc. This will be given to new members as soon as possible. I would like to hear some opinions on how valuable a quarterly or monthly newsletter would be. Maybe this is where we could transmit the latest scoop on technique, certification, ski school developments, etc. Keep in mind we aren1t the richest organization in the world. Those of you who have ideas on how this office can better serve you, don't be grumpy and keep it to yourselves, but drop me a line. Also, please keep me informed of your current address!

You have worked hard for the organization and are deserving of this position.

S. I. A. SUBJECT: I.S.I.A. Examiner's Clinic In order to bring .about a better understanding of requirements and standards of certification examinations,the ISlA certification committee has planned a fall examiners clinic this year. Refer to the enclosed announcement and agenda for full particulars. If any division president and/or chief examiner feels that they could bene­fit their certification program by attending this clinic, ISIA would be happy to have them attend as their guests. Unfortunately, ISIA will not be able to pay any travel or expenses to other division personnel. It is felt that this would be an excellent opportunity for informal discus­sion of many of .the common problems concerning certification in all divisions. Your presence and comments should certainly be of mutuaL benefit to all. Since Intermountain is somewhat centrally located, at least in the west, and easily reached by.air transportation, we hope that you who .are within rea­sonable geographical distance will accept this invitation. ijope to see you November 20 and 21.

Temple Salt Lake City, Utah Dear Lou: December 27, 1965 Would like to take this means to express my sincere appreciation for all of your hospitality during my stay in Salt Lake City and Park City. It was an interesting experience for me to watch you and your troopers in action and \·las interested in the similar parallel of divisional problems. It was my observation that the clinic you put together was most beneficial to all those in attendance. Continued effort in this direction should go a loug way toward upgrading professional ski instructors in our country. Further, I felt the opportunity to discuss common problems with you was most beneficial and something \.e tvhould continue whenever possible. In this regard I am going to request permission from our Board of Directors to consider the feasibility of inviting you do\vu to our convention in some capacity so that we may continue this exchange of ideas. Again, thanks a million for the opportunity to observe your clinic, for taking the time to transport me to necessary destinations and for the very warm hospitality shown me during my stay.
