Our arrival was at 4 : 20 a.m. due to car trouble en middle-of-the-wee- k. route. wasn't completely lost because of the help and kindness of people we met during our two days of difficulties. Mr. and Mrs. Reed Martin of Spring City, Utah, had picked up Andres, our visitor from Mexico, at the airport on Sunday. They graciously extended his stay with them until we were able to pick him up Wednesday morning at 1 o'clock. We had trouble with the lights on the car for two nights and days and late Tuesday evening stopped to buy an alternator. The man at the generator and alternator shop raised the hood of the car and immediately announced, "You don't need an alternator. You just need one belt." To our great relief, he was absolutely right. One little belt cured our car's ills of no lights and no starting power. He could just as easily have sold us an alternator for $70. We visited George, Eddie, and Alan Rich at their shop, Budget Quik Print, in Salt Lake City. George advised us on the race meet programs and we used his phone to save a lot of leg work in the afternoon heat. We took a four-horeal estate licensing test on 7:30 a.m. This meant we had t6 at Tuesday morning 7:30 a.m. Monday to 4 a.m. 6:30 at a.m. From get up of we had total three hours of sleep. a Wednesday, When we reached home this morning, it seemed as though we had been gone for weeks instead of just two days. The whole trip hardly seems real. Hope it never happens to you and if it does, you receive the assistance and consideration we were extended. Ellen ur Quality Parenting Programs to Air children.

So goes the lament of many disgruntled Utah motorists who object to the 55 mph speed limit. The Utah Energy Office gave a few of these motorists a chance to prove their assertions with a gas mileage test Wednesday, July 27 on the highway near Lakepoint Junction on Toot le County. Two cars from the news media were also tested. The gns mileage tester consisted of a glass cylinder containing of a gallon of gasoline which was connected to the test vehicle's fuel line by Rocs Fullmer, a graduate student with the University of Utah's mechanione-tent- cal TIRED OF GARBAGE UNDERFOOT?

Mr. Fullmer used a stopwatch to time how fast the cyhiuhr emptied at speeds of 55 and 70. From this, mileage rates at both speeds could be calculated. A 1974 Oldsmobile made 16.3 miles per gallon at 55 and 14.7 at 70 an improvement of about 11 percent at the lower speed. A 1977 Ford LTD got 17.2 mpg at 55 mph and 14.3 at 70, an improvement of about 20 pereent at 55. Going against the wind, the LTD got 16.6 mpg at 55 and 13.2 mpg at 70, a 26 percent improvement at 55. A Chevrolet Caprice's gas mileage was about 21 percent 55. If made 14.1 mpg at hcltci 55 and 1 1 mpg at 70.

The Bureau of Land Management (tiLM) is inviting public comment on proposed guidelines for identifying and designating areas of the public lands where special management is needed. The proposed guidelines were published in the June 6 Federal Register. "The Organic Act mandates us to protect our most environmentally significant and most vulnerable resources within a framework of multiple use," BLM Director Frank Gregg said. "We to have a dual responsibility: protect those genuinely important and critical natural, historic, cultural or scenic values that make the places where they are located special places, and to protect the public from natural hazards, and to do this without restricting these unnecessarily lands from any compatible uses," he said. The kinds of areas that would be involved are those where special management is required to (1) protect important and critical historic, cultural, or scenic values, fish and wildlife resources, or other natural systems or processes, or (2) provide protection to the public from natural hazards. Recognition of such areas is not new to the public lands or to BLM. In the past, however, such designations as "research areas" or "natural areas" have not necessarily included commitment to providing special management on a continuing basis. In the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 Congress directed BLM to give special management attention to "areas conof critical environmental cern" (ACECs) on such a continuing basis. BLM Director Frank Greff said the ACLC process will provide BLM resource managers, with a multiple-usplanning and management tool that wili be useful in . special situations.
