The present plans as approved call for approximately of the money to lie used for new construction and reinixlcling in the Dugway high school with the remainder to lie used for improving elementary school facilities. THE LARGEST construction will lie the building of a new multipurpose room which will provide multipurpose gyiunasium-auditoriulocker-showand dressing facilities, health education classroom, stage, spectator seating to accommodate capacity of secondary school, initial equipment, utilities and minimum site development. Other plans for the high school include the construction of three music rooms to lie located at the end of the south sectiim, east wing across from the existing music room. A constructing of a student locker and lounge area to accommodate all junior-senihigh school pupil lockers by extending the main entry way of building. Flans also call for the old gymnasium to lie converted into an instructional media center. The room will lie equipped with shelves and cabinets for library two-thir- er or looks and other instructional equipment. The entire plumbing and heating system of the high school will lie thoroughly checked and replaced if necessary with the possibility of a system being installed. ALSO INCLUDED in the plans is surfacing of the parking area at the rear of the school. This area could then lie used for an play area for physical education classes. The interior of the building will lie painted and the roof and outside repaired as necessary. Other alterations in the plans include the converting of the present library into the principals office and an enlarging of the present industrial arts room. In the west wing of the elementary school the remodeling program calls for removing 10 feet of the south wall in room one while in room two ten feet of the north wall extending to the corridor is to lie torn out. By removing the aliove walls plus removing the workroom at the northeast comer of the library a four room complex will lie developed. A SIMILAR project will lie done in rooms 1(X)2, 1003, 1004 and room 1(X)5, and also in the east wing of the elementary school by removing certain walls in rooms 1028A and 1036A and also a portion of the wall of room 1 soft-wat- er 1036. Certain improvements will lie made in the kitchen area under the proposed plans. The kitchen storage area will lie enlarged by adding 12 feet at the west end of the present storage area. The concrete platform would also be moved 12 feet. The present dishwasher would be replaced with a newer more efficient machine and an exhaust hood installed over the stoves. Possibly the south and west partitions of the kitchen will lie removed to give more space. Also included in the plans are several items that will greatly decrease safety hazards around the elementary school. The plan calls for the installing of an asphalt surface on the west side of the school of an area large enough for the loading and unloading of school buses which will relieve the congestion in front of the school and a concrete sidewalk will lie installed in front of the elementary school from East School Ave to West School which will greatly decrease the nmnlier of children walking along the side of the road. THE APPROVAL of the plans by the Department of Health Education and Welfare was disclosed by Colonel Charles M. Shadle during his talk to the Dugway PTA meeting held this p' at this time, stated Lt. Maxwell. A tentative plan has already been worked out whereby each unit will lie respon- sihle for certain portions of English Village and Ditto areas. As an example, the personnel of Headquarters and Headquarters Company will police the chapel area, the area around the post exchange, Brantley Field and dong Stark Road. The operation will also include the policing of certain main streets in the housing areas but it will be the residents re- The 1969 Combined Federal Campaign, which replaces the separate drives formerly conducted al by various fund groups such as the Utah United Fund, The National Health Agencies and the Service Agencies is now being conducted for all Deseret Test Center military and civilian personnel at Fort Douglas and Dugway Proving Ground. LTC ROBERT E. GUYTON is the project officer for the Fort Douglas portion of the campaign and CPT Louis T. Bowring, the project officer for Dugway for the drive which will close October 4. LTC Guyton stated, the quota for DTC has been set at $15,(XX) and we hope to reach that goal but we are also vitally interested in having 100 per cent participation by all military personnel in this biter-nation- once-a-ye- campaign. The once- - a- - year, on- - the-jo- b campaign has three distinct advantages over the former campaigns conducted for various health and service agencies. It meets the employee wishes for a single campaign; it reduces costs in manhours to the government, and, it increases contrilmtions to worthy causes. The Combined Federal Campaign received widespread acceptance among federal employees 'sponsihility to cooperate in the when conducted in the Salt Lake clean-u- p campaign by maintain-wi- ll area and in 143 other locations irg the appearance of their resi- - and this year it has been agreed to expand the Salt Lake CFC dcnlial areas. area to inlude the civilian and military federal employees in Tooele County this year. THIS WILL provide financial support for IKith Salt Lake and Tooele local voluntary agencies such as the Boy Scouts, Red Cross, etc., as well as for the national and international health agencies and will eliminate the three or more separate fund drives formerly conducted each year. The CFC also provides a payroll deduction privilege, not formerly allowed under other fund drives.

This amount may lie difficult to give in a lump sum but under the payroll deduction privilege this sun can lie spread out in 26 installments for civilian employees or in 12 installments for military personnel based on the number of paydays during 1969. To sign up for payroll deduction, all that is necessary, is to fill out your CFC pledge card and the attached payroll authorization form and turn them into the keyman. The amoung specified will then lie deducted for CFC each pay period during the calendar year 1969. No payroll deductions will lie made until the first pay period of year 1969. The least amount that can be deducted is fifty cents for each pay period for civilians and xm dollar for each pay period for military personnel. THERE ARE 59 participating agencies in the CFC and each contributor has the right to designate how much of his gift he wants to go to one or more of these agencies. The contributor can do this by using the code number shown for each agency and fill in the space provided on the pledge card. All contributions Here To some nice to know is - Lt.
