No. 5 Sugar House, Utah Thursday January 30, 1985 Price 10 Cents Survey Planned For Sugar House Project By Jaycee Plans for the forthcoming Sugar House Junior Chamber of Commerce community survey are progressing on schedule, ac-cording to Jay E. Jensen, first vice president and chairman of the survey committee. The object of the survey will be to sample public opinion con-cerning community projects for the Sugar House area in 1958. High on the list of suggested projects is improvement of traf-fic control in the south east section, particularly at the in-tersection of 21st South and 11th East. It is felt by some that a partial solution to the problem would be a traffic study to determine use patterns. The desire to have a park developed on the old prison site has arrested varying degrees of attention off and on for nearly ten years. With the establish-ment of Sugar House Fark Au-thority some definite steps have been made, however with in-creased public attention focused on the project it would progress at a much faster pace. Expansion of facilities at the public library has been discussed by several groups from time to time with results the same. The building of a civic center and auditorium in the south east area deserves serious con-sideration in view of the vast population increase in this sec-tion of the valley. If you have an idea or sug-gestion for community improve-ment you are invited to submit it to the South East Indepen-dent, 2020 South Main or P. O. Box 136, Sugar House station, or by contacting any member of the Junior Chamber of Com-merce. Suggestions can be given to survey committeemen Richard Moench, Frank H. Bjorndal, and Gerald 'Tim Whittaker. i " . . . . .... - - - . .- - - . ' : " - ' . " '. - . ' .... ' .' ; . I r . TFLZZZV''"' r w ' 1!

Dr. Gibbs Talked To Sugar House Junior Chamber The importance of ceramics in the space age rocket race was the topic of discussion at the Wednesday, January 22 meeting of the Sugar House Junior Chamber of Commerce atHar-man- 's Cafe. Dr. Peter Gibbs, an associ-- ate professor of physics at the University of Utah, explained certain aspects of an intensive research project at the uni-versity on the study of ceramics. "The scientists, or nation, which produces a malleable cer-amic for practical uses will cross the awesome 'thermal' barrier one of the big hurdles to space travel," Dr. Gibbs pointed out. When a rocket plunges earth-ward at extremely high speeds, atmospheric friction builds in-tensely high temperatures on rocketnose surfaces tempera-tures that either melt or cor-rode metals. Nose cones made with malleable ceramics might survive plunges into the atmo-sphere at speeds which would burn up metals, he said. Working under research grants from the Air Force, Navy, and Atomic Energy Com-mission, the Utah researchers have discovered much valuable information concerning the pro-perties of ceramics. S. H.
