Show lite : Utah Power and Light Company Com-pany has charged the entire 370-mile 370-mile length of its 345,000-volt transmission line spanning the area from Salt Lake City to the Four Corners, New Mexico. . The charging of the line was pone in two stages: first, the section between Camp Williams just south of Salt Lake City and Huntington Canyon in Emery Pounty; second, the section economical power to all electric users. The transmission line was begun in the spring of 1970. Before construction, the route of the line was scrutinized to insure that it would meet the latest standards of environmental en-vironmental campatibility. In some instances the line was rerouted. This was the case in several spots in Central Utah whereby adding a short distance to the line's overall length, UP&L was able to hide the poles from view or preserve the aesthetic appearance of forests. The line was also rerouted in several spots on the Navajo and Ute reservations in the Four Corners area. UP&L hired a team of archeologists to make sure that no Indian ruins would be disturbed by actual placement of poles or by construction con-struction crews and their equipment.' The archeologists found several concentrations of artifacts, and the line's right-of-way was relocated around these areas. The line also was routed to skirt state parks and national park and monument lands. E. A. Hunter, UP&L president, said the line will provide tran smission for power exchange with adjacent electric systems, and in 1974, when the Huntington Canyon plant first unit will be completed, it will deliver power from this Emery County steam-electric steam-electric generating station. Huntington Canyon plant's first unit will provide 430,000 kilowatts capability addition to the Utah Power system. Utah Power and Light has terconnected to electric systems in eastern United States. This pooling arrangement makes it possible to install larger, more efficient generating units than individual companies might otherwise justify, since part of the output can be available, to other systems. Thus, large amounts of power an be exchanged between bet-ween the companies V. 1 ft 1. X '"'' " J David C.

The article points to the fact that men in the Ruff family have been automobile mechanics in Springville for three generations. For two generations prior to that, they were blacksmiths.

In addition to having been associated with mechanics all his life Mr. Ruff has attended "every class and school available." He attended the General Motors Training School and the Carter Carburetor School. He was certified by CARS (Certified Automotive Repairmen's Society) and has a teaching certificate in auto mechanics from the Utah State Board of Education.
