There was a considerable discussion concerning the role of the advisory council in regard to the PTA. Some of those in attendance felt the advisory council should fall within the responsibility of the PTA. Others expressed the opinion that since the PTA is comprised of parents of hoth elementary and high school students, the advisory council should lie separate as it is for the high school only. Several parents expressed their dissatisfaction with the was discussed and it was brought 'up that it is illegal for students to wear fatigue jackets if tney still have stripes and insignia on the jacket. It was also noted that the dress code is very li- -j beral, with the student council to a degree being responsible for the students conforming with the code. Also brought up was the incident of 23 students not being brought home on the same bus from a trip to a basketball game at Park City. It was explained to the satisfaction of most of those in attendance that arrangements had keen made to get the students back to Dugway. At the elementary school meeting one of the primary points brought out was the feasibility of having open class rooms as described in the construction plans. Several parents expressed a desire that the contractor and school board be contacted concerning the possibility of having sliding doors installed in the open rooms. REPORT CARDS were also discussed at the elementary school meeting with several parents in favor of elementary school students receiving graded report cards. Principal Rupp also stated that the elementary students will continue classes from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. the remainder of the year. Construction is scheduled to start in the elementary school within the next week and there is a probability that students in the third through the sixth grade will then have classes in the high school.

F. (Jeff) Orr were chosen to serve as in Salt Lake City and Dugway, respectively. RETAINED in office, as 2. ts their terms have not yet expired, were Mr. Edward Rengers, Secretary (SLC), Mr. A. T. Hereim, and Mrs. Emelda Treasurer, Colanto, Secretary (DPC) with Messrs. John Rothfels, Fred George Rice, Richard Caski-nett- e and James Snowden as memliers of die Board of Directors. This election of officers was prompted by the pending retirement of the founding President of the local, Mr. Kenneth Ho-dap- p, R. Lind. Mr. Lind not only was instrumental in the establishment of the professional union at DTC but has spent countless hours in attempting to insure the regulatory rights of DTC personnel during two agonizing RIFs and a major personnel realignment necessitated by the recent DTC reorganization. His interests include motorcycling and camping, although most of his spare time is presently occupied by his assignment as Bishop of the Granger 18th Ward of the Mormon Church. MR. VAN LIERE trasnfer-re- d to DTC from Ft Greely, Alaska, in the spring of 1968 as a Safari Chemist. Since Janu-- . ary 1970 he has been an OR Analyst in the Analytical Studies Division. Jack was one of the of die professional local and has served as since May of 1969 when the local was formed. His interests include practicnt ing the classical guitar, paddle nail, skiing, flying, fishing, hunti- ng, and camping and sailing with his family. HOWEVER, to his friends Jack is best known for his cooking of gourmet meals which are served with all die finesse of a master chef. Dr. Orr came to die Biological Laboratories at Dugway in 1963 where he is currently assigned as a microbiologist specializing in mycology. Jeff is well known for his rather unique interest in identifying and collecting mushrooms although he includes camping, hunting and fishing as special interests. Followers of the Deseret Sampler will also recognize that Jeff has a regular column in that newspaper. THE NEW officers hope to be able to continue to provide the kind of personnel service keynoted by Mr. Lind. Currently several appeals resulting from personnel actions taken in the recent DTC reorganization are being monitored. Contact is also being maintained with Utahs congressional delegation in relation to the Dugway remote site classification. According to latest report, action is lieing delayed because of Phase 11 wage and price DPG has controls although been placed mi the list of those sites under serious consideration. WITHIN THE next few weeks regulatory grievance procedures will be initiated to comof the plete the Union Contract in view of the DA comments to the contract which was finalized in March 1971. Additionally, it is our desire to work with management to upgrade the DTC mission by exploiting the available DTC personnel and physical resources in areas which will provide a prosperous and long tenure for the headquarters as well as contribute to the national interest commensurate with the full measure of our capability. ADDITIONALLY, Mr. Lina played a major role in providing information not only to the local command liut also to key personnel within DA which contributed significantly to the decision to retain the DTC Headquarters at Fort Douglas. Throughout this lmsy schedule, Mr. Lind somehow found time to negotiate a union contract within DTC management. As we tagin a new era in union leadership, all memliers of the union wish to extend a most sincere well done and thanks to Ken for his untiring service in our liehalf. THE NEW officers of the local represent a broad cross section of varied DTCDPG experience and personal interests. Mr. Zundel came to DPC in 1961 as a consulting statistician for CEIR. Four years later he joined the DTC staff as a mathematician in the Requirements Analysis Division. Most recently he was Chief of the Analytical Research Branch and is currently assigned as an OR Analyst in the Management Information Systems Dugway residents donating blood to the Tooele County Chapter of the American Bed Cross at the Dugway NCO Mess. pints were collected Feb. 10 in the drive.
