I'm sure, not even Mr. Dylan would have dreamed of shooting real bullets out of plastic guns, but Times....they are a changing". . As of Jury 1, Springville Police Chief Leland Bowers is allowing his officers, on a "conditional and temporary" basis, to carry new sidearms. The twist to these guns, is that they are made out of Polymer, Poly-mer, a new space-age plastic. The officers have been trying to incorporate incor-porate the new gun for the past few months for its many advantages advantag-es over the current .45 Caliber 1911 models. The new gun of choice is the .40 Caliber Glock. The Glock offers some immediate advantages such as round capacity, capaci-ty, rust-resistant parts and light weight. Officers feel that "safe operation opera-tion and combat ready reliability" were the primary concerns in choosing the new weapon. There are others who feel the handling of the gun on the shooting range has won them over. All of the officers shooting the new Glock have increased their shooting scores. "The Glock .40 is a logical A few SpringvillePolicemen are now using new guns made of space-age space-age plastic. The firearms are lots lighter to pack around and they are easier to shoot accuratly. The Glock .40 Is already preferred by those who have used it choice for our police department. It has outperformed several other guns in its class, and we have a Glock certified armorer, Dell Gordon, in our department," stated Officer Check Senn.who is among those currently carrying the new gun. The police department is not purchasing the new guns at this Fifteen ways to save the earth With just a little effort, you can help turn the tide in the battle for Planet Earth, according to author Lisa Johnson. "We all share the responsibility for this green earth," says Johnson, John-son, "yet sometimes we forget that and abuse its resources." Johnson lists . 15 easy things that teenagers can do to protect the environment in the July 1991 issue of The New Era, a magazine for teens published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Latter-day Saints. To help keep your environment environ-ment safe and ensure a decent future for everyone, she offers these suggestions: 1. Walk on. Or carpool, or use public transportation. It's cool to save fuel. 2. Battle burger blight Be careful when eating fast food. Do you take more napkins, straws and ketchup packages than you need, then throw the rest away? Try to take only what you'll use. 3. Don't plunder the plav- the plastic bags you get at the supermarket. Some stores even take a couple of cents off your grocery bill for reusing your bag. 5. Sack the pack. Buy products with minimal packaging. Cardboard Card-board and foam trash put a real strain on the environment. 6. Write away. If the products you like have too much packaging, packag-ing, or if they contain ingredients that are harmful to the environment, environ-ment, write to the companies and express your concern. 7. Rap about wrapping. Try to get your family not to throw away plastic wrap, freezer bags and foil. Reuse them, or just use resealable containers. 8. Be careful with cups. Don't always use paper cups and then toss them-that goes for plates, too. It's better to use the real thing and wash the dishes. 9. Patrol that paper. Use recycled recy-cled paper at school, at home, at work, whenever you can. 10. Reuse refuse. Help your family to sort your garbage, sepa- time, so officers wishing to carry these guns must do so a! their own cost.

Sure, it's fun to decorate someone's lawn with toilet paper, but it's not the most ecologically sound way to play a joke. 13. Turn out the lights. This will make your parents happy by reducing the utility bills. It will also save power, which can eventually even-tually lead to less acid rain, air pollution and nuclear waste. 14. Wash wisely. Okay, maybe your best jeans are dirty and you need to wear them in an hour, but it's a tremendous waste of water and energy to wash and dry just one item at a time. Wait till you have a full load, or see if others in the household have things that could be washed along with yours. 15. Try a tree. Never underestimate underes-timate the ecological worth of even one tree. Trees give off oxygen and consume carbon dioxide. diox-ide. Trees also provide shade and evaporative cooling.
