Show THE SUMMIT COUNTY BEE 4 Visitors Unhappy with Section of Road from Dixie to Marina Morgan County is in disrepute with vacationing residents of the Wasatch front. The local public relations banner is at a low ebb. But theres nothing much that Morgan County can do about it. Blacktop runs from Salt Lake City to Henefer, and the gravel road from this blacktop, in Dixie Hollow, to the marina and launching ramp a mile and a quarter away, on East Canyon reservoir, is in a sad state of disrepair. This is an acknowledged fact. It is within Morgan County, and Morgan County is being blamed for the tact that incoming trailers, boats and trucks are having a bad time traversing the mile and a quar- ter. It is so bed, in fact, that the state parks commission, headed by F. C. Kozlol, is besieged by protests. Leo Bertagnole, who heads Lake Marina, Inc., insists that something must be done about the road or visitors will stop coming to East Canyon Dam. Koziol concurs. And Morgan County gets all the blame. At a regular meeting of the Morgan County Commission Monday, the group arranged a consultation with Gov. Calvin Rampton at 10 a.m. Monday, ' July 8. Also present to discuss the matter will be representatives from the Bureau of Reclamation, the State Parks Commission, and the State Road Commission. ' The problem is this: Morgan County simply has no funds available to keep the mile and a quarter in repair. Every effort has been made to keep the gravel road graded, but every day's travel deteriorates the route further and now there is no base remaining for grading, We have just about $25,000 in the county road fund for the rest of the year, said Harry Wilkinson, county road chairman. "This would be just a drop in the bucket for keeping up that East Canyon segment. And we must-le- t's face it-prior claim to the many other miles in Morgan County which serve hundreds of citizens. It was pointed out that the Bureau of Reclamation, which engineered the new road, replacing the old road which would become Inundated by the higher waters of East Canyon when the new dam was completed, was advised that the new road was very poorly engineered. Further, the Bureau was advised that maintenance of the new road would be very expenglve tax-payi- ng Coalville, Utah Thursday, July 4, short road from Dixie said Commission Chairman Lincoln Jensen. Certainly we havent the money to maintain that stretch, and we can't go into debt to do it while the rest of the county needs far more work than we can actually afford at this time. The same condition exists at Lost Creek Dam, the chairman continued. 'The Bureau of Reclamation put in a road which wo simply could not accept, and they have taken the grade down to an acceptable figure. But if traffic were to build up there as it has in East Canyon, with thousands of persons visiting the lake each week end and holiday, we would have the very same maintenance pro- Hollow to the boat ramp, Saving Bonds Sales Increase For the fifth consecutive month, Utah residents invested more than $2 million in U. S. Savings Bonds and Freedom Shares, State Savings Bonds Director Kathleen Melkle said today when reporting local sales results to state and county bond volunteers. The state's May sales of Bonds and Shares totaled $2,225,617, and for the of 1968 reached Director Meikle $11,271,000, stated. "This reflects an increase of $230,000 above last period year's sales and sets another War D record. Summit County's share of the state's May sales was $2,730, according to .Demont Lott of Kamas, county volunteer bonds chairman for the area. For the year to date, the county sales post-Wor- ld totaled $15,272. The long 4th of July holiday weekend will expose hundreds of thousands of Utahns to all kinds of hazards, the Utah Safety Council said today. Each of these hazards could turn the celebration into a wake, but by following common sense this need not be safety practices so. The hazards will not only be on foe highway, but on our lakes and rivers, our mountains, and in our backyards. Death on our streets and highways is an ever present danger when extra thousands of motorists crowd them, and many of the drivers take foolish chances against odds no gambler would accept at the gaming table. Defensive driving by the other motorists is the test way to cope with the speeders, the drunks, the stop-sirunners, and the weavers. The weekend will also be the time when safe boating in Utah gn i ' vVv - Teachers is being stressed, by proclamation of Governor Rampton. Lynda Rockhill, Lee Prescott Wed B.S. Degrees KAMA- S- This Fact was reported by Utah Foundation in an analysis of a recent Utah State Board of Education report which examined the characteristics of Utah professional school personnel employed during the 1967-6- 8 school year. According to the Foundation analysis there were 15 professional school employees in the North Summit District with a bachelor's degree, 12 with a bachelors degree plus additional training but no master's degree, and five employees with a master's degree or higher. Of the 33 professional school employees In the North Summit District last year, 19 were men and 14 were women. The report also indicated the following age distribution pattern for these personnel: The Foundation analysis of the State School Board report shows that a total of 13,157 school personnel were Utahs employed throughout forty school districts last year. Of these, 11,527 persons, or 87.6 were classroom teachers and 1,630 consisted of administrative and other school personnel (supervisors, principals, superintendents, librarians, counselors, etc.) In other words, there was approximately one professor educator employed in a nonteaching roll for every seven classroom teachers in the Utah schools. The report points out that the above figures and totals exclude many nonprofessional school employees, such as secretarial and clerical personnel, operating and maintenance workers, food service and transportation employees, teacher and library aides, etc.' Altogether, foe Utah Department of Employment Security estimates that the local schools in Utah employ about 22,500 persons including both professional and nonprofessional pro-fessio- staffs.

Lets face the facts, said Commissioner Lorln Tonka. Does our obligation go first to Morgan County taxpayers who use our county roads every day, or to vacationing Wasatch front people who complain because their trailers get bumped, their boats get jounced on the way to having fun? Of course we're sorry. But what can we do about It? Mr. Koziol said Sunday, incidentally, that it is very doubtful if the State will build the much-needblacktop road from Dixie Hollow to Forter-ville- -a route much desired in Morgan because it supplies much shorter and far more beautiful "Sunday afternoon circle tour than the one through Henefer.
