QEARFIELD MAYOR daughter, Donita who 0 WSC professor says gasohoi won save you money A Weber State College automotive engineering expert says he doubts whether you can actually save money by burning gasohoi in your car, but that it is a good fuel and can do no harm. assistant Blaine Thornock, professor of automotive engineering, says some motorists are reporting they get better mileage and efficiency out of their cars when they use a mixture of gasoline and alcohol. But, says Prof. Thornock, Im not convinced thats entirely true. He says there is less heat value in alcohol. Therefore, a mixture of even a small amount of alcohol to the gasoline would reduce the amount of heat in the fuel. It may make up for that in an increased octane rating. Still, I havent seen any hard, scientific data to indicate a car gets better mileage, he says. Prof. Thornock does admit gasohoi is a good fuel. Its been used in the Midwest during the past year with good success, he says. The best mixture for gasohoi is 10 to per cent per cent alcohol and gasoline. If mixed at those ratios, Prof. Thornock says there would be no need to make any modifications on the car's engine. If too much alcohol is used, then the carburetion system must be modified, he says. Prof. Thornock says any type of car can burn the proper mixture of gasohoi. Normally, the alcohol is mixed with unleaded fuel, so you can use it in any kind of car. The only problem with gasohoi, according to Prof. Thornock, is the storage. He says usually the alcohol will separate from the gasoline. Gasohoi must be stored in sealed tanks, under ground. Prof. Thornock says he doesnt use gasohoi but only because it hasnt been more readily available. The real value in using gasohoi, according to Prof. Thornock, is that it would help the United States to gain greater independence from the other nations. 20 80-9- 0 Dawns (Sowrniitiy pdls ffeatiw 5inmMon) The rodeos at this years Davis County Fair on Friday and Saturday nights will feature several innovations to the regular activities. On both nights the rodeo will begin with a cowhide contest, at 7:30 p.m. old and will then feature an Indian girl, Sonja Copeland, a very experienced trick rider. Miss Copeland has been performing since she was 11 years old with the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show. She has performed with this show at North ar Platte, Arizona; Nebraska; Pueblo Scottsdale, and Denver, Colorado; Louisville Kentucky State Fair; Long Island, New York; Wembly Indoor Sports arena in London and in Shirakama, Japan. Her home is on the Pyramid Lake Indian reservation, '30 miles east of Reno, Nevada. A member of the Klamath and Pauite Tribe, Miss Copeland has performed in the Reno State Finals rodeo and many other western states Indian rodeos, such as the Parker Arizona; Nanajo Fair in Window Rock, Arizona and the Apache Indian Reservation rodeos. Another feature of the rodeos will be the showing of a Honky Tonk Brangus bull that has been retired after participating in rodeos for eight years and was never ridden for the mandatory eight seconds in 187 attempts made by rodeo cowboys in five states. This undefeated bull a cross between a Brahma and an Angus weighing almost a ton, will be on display all during the fair and will be shown during the rodeo each night. Honky Tonk is a bull with many dispositions which range from a gentle pet in the pasture to a rank, double tough hombre in the arena. Therefore, extreme caution is always used when working around him," Earl Fredrickson, owner and producer of this year's rodeo stock, cautioned. |
