"Beam up" Halloween treats safely! That's what the University Mall is telling local youngsters with the help of some unusual volunteers.

At noon Saturday, Oct. 27, members of the local Star Trek club, "USS Alioth," will appear at the mall in Star Trek costumes and "alien" makeups to hand out Halloween safety fliers to children. The fliers containing advice from the Orem Police Department are written and designed by Alioth members, with all the printing costs being picked up by the mall."One persistent theme in Star Trek," says club "captain" Lynnette Knox, "is that our future will be a bright one, if we are all willing to pull together and help each other. Every Star Trek club performs this sort of public service."
