Powell Slough Flooded Now For Fall Duck Hunters to Use Powell Slough is a relatively relative-ly small marshy area on the east shore of Utah Lake, about four miles north of the mouth of Provo River. Several spring areas create a marshy situation which attracts ducks and makes much of the area undesirable for grazing of livestock. During high water years, Powell Slough is actually covered cov-ered with water from Utah Lake, however, during the past ten dry years, the water has receded and much of Powell Slough has afforded good grazing graz-ing for farmers who own adjacent ad-jacent lands. The land exposed by receding water is generally recognized as public land administered by a state or federal agency, and Utah Power Co. Furnishes Free Lights for Xmas Utah Power and Light Co. will provide free electricity to light up some 75,000 lamps this holiday holi-day season, the company's tra- - ditional Christmas gift to cities and towns where the firm's distribution dis-tribution lines run. . j. Newel Stephens, UPL&L's Southern division manager, said the gift service will be available between dusk and midnight from Nov. 27 to Jan. 1,- for holiday decorations installed in-stalled on city streets and parks as community projects. Mr. Stephens said the company will also run necessary service wires to connect installed lights to the utility's lines. Free Christmas lighting to communities where customers are. served directly by the company com-pany is a long-standing custom with Utah Power. Last year, the utility provided almost 400,-000 400,-000 kilowatt hours of free electricity elec-tricity to illuminate some 75,-000 75,-000 holiday lamps in 148 cities and towns. Of these, 8,000 bulbs were lighted in 23 communities in central and southwestern Utah, in this case by the Bureau of ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES .

The adjacent landowners who were grazing the area felt this was unfair and that their rights to the use of this land should be recognized. After considerable consider-able discussion and study, a compromise was reached allowing allow-ing a two year trial which would allow the fanners to graze the area during the summer. sum-mer. They remove the livestock live-stock before the duck season, and the sportsmen , are allowed to use the area in the fall and winter. " The Fish and Game Department Depart-ment has recently completed a dike and water control structure struc-ture which will create a pond to be used by waterfowl hunters. hunt-ers. Water will be ponded after the livestock grazing period and before the opening of the waterfowl season. Water will be released as soon after the -freeze up as possible.- Several . acres of flat land west of the channel will be planted to small grains and left unharvested to provide food for waterfowl, pheasants and other birds. Powell Slough is now accessible access-ible on a road developed by the State Fish and Game Department. Depart-ment. The area has an abundance abund-ance of bird life and has attracted at-tracted groups of boy scouts as well as biology students who are interested in studying birds. The area is also an example of what can result from cooperation cooper-ation between farmers and sportsmen. Landowners in the area have been very cooperative. coopera-tive. Private lands that were once' closed to all hunters are now being hunted as an organized organ-ized pheasant posted hunting unit. " Powell Slough is now open to the public to enjoy as an interesting in-teresting study area during the summer and a public hunting . area during the fall seasons. 04 I r w I Failuro to Signal Worst Driving Error, Say Pros , T Neither speeding nor slow driving is the greatest driving error noticed by one group who ought to know. Professional, drivers, with a safety record unequaled by the average passenger-car driver, say in a re- Srt issued this month that it's . lure to signal properly. The driving error in second place is failure to dim lights and just behind this is close following, or "tailgating." The driving pros reporting in this month's Changing Times are today's typical truck drivers-men drivers-men whose jobs depend on their safety records. Today's average passenger-car passenger-car driver has an accident every 40,000 miles. -The average aver-age trucker goes at least three times, and on some trucks lines more than four times, farther per accident, according to the Kiplinger Magazine report. Now that these drivers have . been asked about the driving blunders they observe, the tab- '. ulation holds some surprises. . Errors previously thought to be among the most commonly committed (Ignoring stop signs, crossing the center line, . Ignoring traffic lights) were at the bottom of the list The slow driver was in eight place as a menace. Ignoring solid "do not pass" lines on hills and curves tied for sixth place with drifting drift-ing between lanes on expressways.. express-ways.. Excessive speed took fifth place. Failure to pass a slow-moving slow-moving car ahead just barely nosed out excessive speed for fourth place. (THE3 600DTMtHfio SAID ABOUT U. 8. I SAVIN BONDS WfiVMUSTWIW wcs.
