Do you want an unlimited supply of electricity or new wheel? Who should make the decisions: politicians? professional planners? lobbyists? the people affected directly by the decision? Where should the decisions be made: locally? in Salt Lake for the whole state? in Denver? or in Washington? These are all value decisions with direct impact upon each of our lives es resources heavy current subsidies? political pressure? or the squeakiest you want clear uncluttered scenery? Do you want eveyone to be able to have his own home on his own lot or do your want locally produced food? Most people would say: “Why choose? Why not have both?” That’s an easy way out but that way out may not be possible much longer The community project of the program of Environment and Man at Utah State University is concerned that the technical resources of the university and industry are brought into dialogue with the community at large concerning the difficult decisions people will face in the next five to fifty years Are there ways of developing a new consensus of planning values for a scarcity of present energy’ do Heat-Light-Valu- methods requiring forum The October 17th with Dick Gregory James Kilpatrick Gary Snyder and Milton Weilenmann should provide a beginning point for the Heat-Light-Valu- discussion es of these issues throughout Northern Utah These are not academic issues for the entertainment of the inmates of ivory towers of learning but rather issues which affect everyone Most homes in this cold climate are heated by natural after a period of relative abundance? Should these decisions by made through raising prices? through govern gas Gas company co ad- vertisements state that we are about to face a major shortage of natural gas if new sources are not found Do homeowners hope for new discoveries? Do they begin saving for a new furnace? Do they lobby for installations to convert their garbage to methane gas for heating? What en- Ui :i ' rri vironmental costs are they willing to pay for energy production when clean air and water are high values? What personal costs in money and comfort are they willing to pay for control of pollution? These are value decisions which will hit every individual in his eyes his nose his lungs and his wallet The community project committee of is concerned about finding means of building public participation and education concerning environmental value decisions The Rev W Hugh Tucker is Heat-Light-Valu- es A Nightclub entertainment was provided by ‘Spectrum’ (SL Photo by Barry Willis) kyroom re-ope- ns The first Skyroom Nightclub of the year was conducted Sat October 7 in the University Center Skyroom The Nightclub consists of dinner plus three hours of live entertainment and dance music The entertainment for last weeks Night club dance was provided by a local group entitled ‘Spectrum’ While Spectrum was taking a short break a young solo guitarist named Marsha Bastow j i Welcomes Back USU - Friday - Rainmakers attack state are experimenting with a project to fool mother nature into producing the right amount of rain The rainmaker’s who are part of project snow man don’t use dances or shake sticks at clouds and this year they won’t even be at Blocks $10 Gift Cert given away 5 Clouds seeded by pam taylor associated press writer Logan Utah (AP) — a group of modern-da- y rainmakers at Utah Look for your Lucky Student Number 5 - Sat university chemicals out shooting flare-typ- e of small airplanes into clouds but they will be attempting to find out how to control the weather Ron Campbell the acting head of the snow man short for snow managemenrt project says the experiements by USU scientists are working toward finding out the best way to make it rain and the best way to keep it from raining The scientists are working with a grant from the bureau of reclamation and do their experiments west of Logan from the Idaho border to Weber canyon Campbell says the experiment g has shown that through the annual precipitation can be increased or decreased depending on the temperature of the cloud that is seeded The project conducted last year consisted mainly of seeding from the air or in small airplanes which dropped flares containing d chemicals into the clouds This year all the research will be done with ground-base- d seeders which are put on mountain peaks in the area and seed the cloud where it reaches VASSARETTE Bareli ng the bra that bares your back beautifully under all the newest fashions cloud-seedin- Change from halter to cross-cros- s to a regular low back or deep plunge style with straps that adjust three ways Crepelon nylon cups are contour salt-base- lined with fiber-fil- l lightly underwired to lift and curve In natural sizes A B C the ground The seeders contain silver iodide which is burned with an acetone solution and diffuses into the cloud The importance of the project Campbell said is not to make it rain but to control the precipitation so there is enough each year but not too much He said through calculations made by the scientists they have found that during years where the rainfall isn’t high enough the cloud seeders could increase precipitation by four to six inches And during the years where too much precipitation indicates there maybe spring floods the cloudseeders can seed during a different cloud situation and decrease the rain by four to six inches “What we will have is a tool to control the variance of said Campbell precipation” The difference in the two cloud seeding techniques is dependent on the temperature he said The scientist call it seeding under “hot” and "cold” conditions When the clouds are at a reletively warm temperature the cloud seeding increases precipitation and when the clouds are releatively cold it decreases the precipition Logan Utah cloudseeding take two: precipitation Campbell said this technique i£ also used to control hail storms The clouds in a cold stage ready to produce hail can be seeded and then the mositure falls at a less torrent rate New labs open 32-3- 6 $6 Photography students at USU will soon be able to do their lab work in new darkroom facilities located on the third floor of the CLOTHES FOR EVERYONE - Fourth North and Second East Logan Open Daily 10 am to 7 pm - Friday Nights ’till 9 pm & Plant Industry Building The labs have been designed to be more efficient that the old darkrooms located in temporary building TG Ralph T Clark associate professor of art and chairman of the photography division said The facilities will also be able to accommodate approximately 15 percent more students than the old labs Professor Clark said The new site will have two separate printing darkrooms One of the rooms will be for the use of students in basic photo classes and the other will be for undergraduate photo majors There will also be a 50 percent increase in color film processing facilities Professor Clark said The printing and developing equipment and supplies will come from the old labs Work has been going on the project since and Professor mid-Septemb- er Clark said he to start hopes moving into the new site on Tuesday Oct 10 The remodeling work is being done by the USU Physical Plant and is being financed by the campus remodeling fund s I 'I ) |
