Boundaries, road approved by subcommittee for Glen Canyon The House Interior Subcommittee on Parks and Recreation Friday approved a bill establishing permanent boundaries for the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and authorizing a road from Glen Canyon City to Bullfrog Basin, Rep. Sherman P. Lloyd, reported. The bill, by Reps. Lloyd and K. Gunn McKay, with the approval of other members of the Congressional delegation and Gov. Calvin L. Rampton, goes now to the full House Interior Committee. Rep. Lloyd, a member of both the subcommittee and the full committee, beat back several amendments offered by Rep. Moron behalf of ris K. Udall, conservation groups opposed to the joint bill. One amendment which was successful knocked out a provision authorizing a study of areas within or adjacent to the recreation area for possible exchange with the state for private development. Rep. Lloyd said he would work on more acceptable language and offer the provision again when the bill comes before the full committee. However, in general I am very the pleased with the outcome, 2nd District Congressman said. The most important issue in my opinion was the road, and we succeeded in retaining language authorizing the road and retaining the option of having the state con struct it if the Park Service fails to do so. He said an amendment offered by Udall which would have deleted the road authorization was defeated on a voice vote. Also defeated was an amendment to delete language authorizing the Bureau of Land Management to administer grazing and mineral leases within the recreation area. The subcommittee approved an amendment adding authorization for a wilderness study of the area, which Lloyd supported. bill apUnder the Lloyd-McKaproved by the subcommittee, the recreation area would encompass 1,223,480 acres, and would include the Escalante River canyon up to Harris Wash. The bill directs the Secretaries of Interior and Transportation, together with the State of Utah, to conduct a one-yestudy to determine the specific route of the road from Glen Canyon City to Bullfrog. The Interior Secretary is also directed to set a reasonable timetable for construction of the road by the National Park Service. If for any reason that timetable cannot be met, the secretary can grant the State of Utah an easement through the recreation area for construction of the road. Federal funds from several sources could be used if the state ultimately builds the road. y ar Always available fo help with your regular or auto and specialized truck sales needs. ! i from Glendale K The Glendale Ward held their closing social Tuesday evening. , Speakers at sacrament meeting Sunday were: talks by Clarence j and Colleen Spencer and Dallas and Lila Anderson with a song by Callie and Tammy Spencer and a number by the Jr. Choir.

Visiting hours are open with afternoon and evening hours being considered the best time. The LDS Relief Society ladies come over at least once a week to work with the ladies on whatever project they are interested in. A girl is assigned to arrange special activities, and entertainment is arranged for the group about once a week on the average. According to Taylor Crosby, hospital manager, there are no restrictions other than space on being admitted. Age is ,io criteria, he continued, adding that there is now a waiting list for those who want to come in. There are no immediate plans for expanding the facilities, although Crosby admits it will have to come eventually- There is a lady from Nevada staying at the home, and one from Fredonia. The others are from the surrounding area. Crosby said he has been getting a number of letters of inquiry from California residents who are interested in coming to this clean, quiet area to enjoy their senior years. Reading is one of the favorite pasttimes of most of the nursing home residents. Mrs. Anie Stark was busy reading the Book of Mormon for the third time while this reporter was there. Mrs. Lillian Ashby, who will be 97 years young this fall, is considered by the staff to be the most avid reader in the group. Mrs. Ruby S. Swapp is one of the residents who keeps herself busy all day long, according to the staff. She loves to make patterns for quilts, and told this reporter she has made over one hundred in the course of her life. She has a portable sewing machine in her pleasantly colored room. She prepares the patterns and gets the material from scraps she saves. She displayed some hand stitching she had done, but she usually prefers to work with her machine which she keeps humming all day long. She sells her patterns to those who are anxious to buy them, and she had a beautiful yellow quilt that she had made covering her bed. If they feel like it, the residents may attend local church services every Sunday. It is left up to them. The wing is spotlessly clean, and the atmosphere cheerful, casual and quiet, both among the staff and the residents. The furniture is new and modern and the colors blend in casually so as to please the eye and mood of the residents, staff and visitors. It blends in beautifully, but quietly, the view of the nearby Vermillion Cliffs from the recreation room adds a speacial tone of prevailing serenity to the decor. It can pleasantly be described as a nice home away from home and for the 13 residents it is just that. 1 Cabinets General Woodwork EXPERIENCE SPECIAL 5-- 4 cold-blood- LUNT MOTOR COMPANY DODGE Page Two rendered several weeks Supreme Court decision far reaching effects on Utah, Ariago could eventually have It called for the abolishment states. 43 zona and the other of the death penalty in first degree murder convictions.

It is very likely we will hear more about this decision, and its effects on our daily lives, in the weeks and months to come. It will have a bearing someday. How soon it will reach our level of society to have a bearing is impossible to say at the moment. But people in Kane County, and northern Arizona are as unhappy about this decision as people elsewhere. Once again, we are finding a common cause on which to be united. The Supreme Court decisions may serve an end they never dared dream . . . they may unite the people and truly make this a land of, by and for the people.
