President Mitt Romney and chief operating officer Fraser Bullock said they'll ask the board's management committee to whack nearly 8 percent from the $1.43 billion budget. It would mean a $300 million shortfall in funding, made worse by this year's Olympic scandal. would be trimmed to $187 million. "We believe it's achievable." Bullock told the SLOC finance committee Wednesday.

Olympic organizers are going after corporate sponsors as well as donors to make up the difference. The cuts will be proposed in a management committee meeting Thursday but not voted on until September. The new budget would be $1.34 billion.

Council members rode in buggies or wagons pulled by horses or oxen. Councilman Gregory A. Hudnall said Tuesday night that he was in a buggy with his wife and children when a popper spooked the horse and it did a 360-degree turn with the buggy. The horse started another turn. then darted toward the crowd and reared above a group of children who were sitting on the curb, he said.

Parents grabbed the children and the horse came down right where they had been sitting, he said. The driver calmed the horse and they continued along the parade route. Hudnall said.

Parole board leaves little hope for Hansen parole POINT OF THE MOUNTAIN drastic than $84 million in cuts Romney proposed after just a few weeks on the job last spring'stem from a dollar-by-dollar analysis of the budget, Bullock said.

He joined the SLOC in April and also serves as its chief financial officer. The idea, Bullock said. was to slice out of the budget everything not necessary to putting on great games for the athletes and leaving a legacy for Utah's youth. SLOC's managers actually are proposing $169 million in cuts. but $56 million of those are offset by added costs.

Most of that was mistakes in the original budget written last year. but it also includes unforeseen expenses like $5 million in legal expenses because of the U.S. Justice Department's investigation of Salt Lake's bid committee. Executives of the bid committee, the predecessor to the SLOC, have been accused of spending lavishly on International Olympic Committee members during the city's quest for the games, sparking scandal and now reform in the Olympic world. The Justice Department has been investigating for more than seven months but has not brought criminal chaiges The executives also have tagged $72 million of the $113 million in proposed cuts as expenses they'd like to restore if the money can be children; three brothers: David Lee (Patricia) Bradbury of Payson, Ralph Leland (Ida May) Bradbury of Phoenix, and Albert Henry (Dean) Bradbury of Phoenix; mother-in-law: Pearl Justet of Springdale.

The proposed cutbacks are diverse. There would be no information booths for spectators unless some group in the community steps forward. and the SLOC would spend $5 million less on opening. closing and other ceremonies. The SLOC would cut 3 million out of its budget for housing games officials, including a portion of IOC members' rooms, and $300,000 out of the opening IOC session before the games.

Although an uproar from athletes caused Romney to back off from his earlier suggestion that the Utah Winter Sports Park be closed at long stretches before the Olympics, the park will skip building renovations and equipment purchases to save more than $3 million. The committee is scheduled to buy the park from the state July 14. The SLOC will make only what publications are required by the host city contract. and those will be in black and white.
