Show fr-- The Helper Journal Wednesday, Dec. 24, 1975 CHRISTMAS Auto Gnjoy peace at fv injuries on rise deaths in Highway Carbon County for 1975 are keeping pace with the toll for last year although injury accidents, which a local highway patrol spokesman called a more reliable measure of traffic activity, are occurring at about a 20 percent higher rate than last year according to statistics available through the Utah Highway Patrol. Highway Patrol sergeant Dennis Nordfelt, who supervises patrol activities in Carbon and Emery Counties, said last week that there have been 6 accidents recorded in Carbon County this year which resulted in 7 highway deaths. This compares with the 1974 record of 7 accidents resulting in 9 deaths. He noted that the county had experienced on four month period, from Aug. 2 to Dec. 1 of this year, highway without any deaths. Turning to injury accidents that have occurred so far this year, Nordfelt said the patrol has recorded 111 accidents in which some type of injury resulted. This compares to a total of 96 injury accidents for all of 1974. Nordfelt said this higher accident rate is indicative of the higher traffic volume the county has experienced in the last year. He said using traffic fatalities as a measure of this activity is often misleading because of the nature of traffic deaths. He said, for example, the place a victim hits his head in an accident often means the difference between injury and death. that's lov and lauqhter and friends for what we prescribe sure It's a way neighbors. to a happy holiday.

We wish you all the happiest with our thanks JJ for fire truck renovation Helper's first motorized fire truck, which firemen have voted to restore for use as a historical display, remains in its tarnished state, according to Fire Chief Jim Pugliese, because no local garage has been found in which to do the renovation work. Pugliese said a relatively small amount of engine work required on the 1923 model truck would have to be done indoors because of the weather and would have to be done in Helper because firemen plan to do the repairs in their spare time. The fire chief asked anyone having or knowing of adequate facilities to contact him. ... & TV Jack's Radio Service 129 S.
