Show Utah Gets Monay For Free Meals Utah has received another j $13,000 for operation of the Spe-, Spe-, cial Summer Food Service Pro-' Pro-' gram for Children this summer, 'bringing the total state allocation alloca-tion to about $34,000. The money is allocated by the UJS. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service. The summer feeding program, administered in this state by the Utah State jard of Education, , provides nourishing meals to needy children through day camps and recreation centers. During the school year, these children are able to depend upon free lunches at school. Last year about 31,455 meals were served to needy youngsters through the Utah summer feeding feed-ing program. This year's funding increase was necessary because additional day camps and centers have applied for admission to theprogramand because of increased meal costs. X CHUCK HOLES on bridge decks is a problem Utah faces every year. The state Highway Dept. is presently working on solutions to the problem.

California was the first state to use significant amounts of salt to clear snow-packed snow-packed highways. After a few years of salt use, California's bridge decks began to deteriorate. deterio-rate. As other states, including U tah, began using more salt, their decks started to go also. Then the states and the Federal Highway High-way Administration began extensive exten-sive research into the problem. Pinning down the cause of spalling was not particularly difficult. Finding a cure was. Discontinuing the use of salt and other de-icing compounds was suggested. However the traveling travel-ing public had come to expect clear roads during the winter, and returning to the "old days1 on the maximum number of children in their programs.

The problem of spalling is inherent in-herent in the nature of concrete. building material and can with Al stand the ravages of weather 1 andi time quite well. But con- : alone cannot be used to build bridges and other structures that have to span open space. The concrete must be reinforced with another material such as steel. Steel has a very high tensile strength and will hold concrete together when it is stressed or flexed by a load. All concrete used in building overpasses and decks in Utah is reinforced with steel rods. During the winter, the Utah Department of Highways uses sodium chloride, common, table salt, to help clear dangerous ice and snow packs from the road. As the snow melts, a saline (salty) solution forms and seeps down throught the pores of the concrete. The chloride ion in the solution solu-tion forms and electrolyte in the concrete, in effect turning the concrete into a small battery. .Electric1 current begins to flow from one reinforcing bar to another. The electric current carries with it an iron-oxide ion and deposits it on a reinforcing bar. The process is called electrolysis. elec-trolysis. As the iron-oxide builds up (the steel bar is literally rusting) the bar becomes larger in diameter and begins to exert internal pressure on the concrete. con-crete. This "tensile pressure can reach a force of up to 4,000 pounds per square inch, near to the force a jack hammer exerts. The concrete is unable to withstand the pressure and begins be-gins to crack. As the concrete cracks, more water and salt seep in and the process accelerates until most of the bridge surface is coverd with chuck-holes, rough spots and loose reinforcing bar. Highways Department maintenance crews patch the holes as quickly as possible, but a patch is only a temporary solution, and not a very good one. The only real solution is to seal the reinforcing bar from the saline solution. Ed. Conference Held At UTC More than fifty instructors, counselors, and administrators took part in a state-wide conference con-ference on cooperative education at Utah TechnicalCollegeatPro-vo TechnicalCollegeatPro-vo during the past week. The four day conference was under the direction of Dr. Frank Blair, specialist in Cooperative Education for the UtahState Board of Vocational Education and Dr. Lucille Stoddard, director ofCo-operative ofCo-operative Education at Utah Tech. The purpose of the conference' according to Dr. Blair, was to train vocational educators to prepare pre-pare students to meet the expectations ex-pectations of business and industry in-dustry more adequately. Students in co-op work have an opportunity to work part-time while they are in school and then under supervision by their instructors, become better qualified. quali-fied. The result should be a reservoir of well-trained em ployees. Dr. Blair emphasized that vocational vo-cational educators must understand under-stand the philosophy, principles, and techniques involved in developing, de-veloping, administering, and operating op-erating cooperative education programs. One of the guest speakers was Dr. Garth Hansen associate director di-rector of the American Vocational Vo-cational Association. His major concern dealt with the chasm that exists between education a nd legislation. He said, "We must provide our representatives with a Million tcies foo AtMmmwmpiE A Help Utah celebrate our nation's 200th birthday by planting a tree. Governor Calvin L.

He emphasized that legislators do listen to their constitutents and that vocational educators should be especially diligent in communicating frequently fre-quently so that the needs of vocational vo-cational education are recognized. recog-nized. Dr. Hansen was also concerned with the need for coordinating existing educational programs, particularly secondary with post-secondary post-secondary so the young people will not duplicate programs. Dr. Blair commended Utah Technical College at Provo specifically spe-cifically for theprogressmadein cooperative education and recognized recog-nized particularly the support given thisprogramfrombusiness and industry. In addition. Dr. Blair was particularlypleased with the participation of counselors in these sessions. Recall Petitions In Circulation Utah's recall petitions are being be-ing circulated at an ever increasing increas-ing rate. There now are petitions peti-tions available for signatures in all counties. Bob Salter, the chairman of the Concerned Citizens Citi-zens For Recall, was quoted as saying "The ten percent figure some officials were complaining about is not too small a percentage, per-centage, as a matter of fact," He said, "In the last general election elec-tion in Davis County, there were 49,941 votes cast. Yet, 4,334 voters indebted the county in the last school bond election. This figure is considerable less than ten per cent. I don't hear the officials complaining about that." Salter said that "There have been attempts by some legislators legis-lators to compromise the bill but at this point the full committee com-mittee of concerned citizens had not agreed to a discussion of compromise."
