Forest Service Closes 2 Roads, Urges Help The Forest Service has completed erosion control on the Delano Peak jeep ti ail, and the two track road on the Skyline trail. Due to the heavy snow-paclast winter and the tremendous amount of rain received during the summer, a serious erosion pattern developed on these two tracks. The ruts were getting deep enough that a choice had to be made to close the tracks or live with a gully down the face of Delano Peak. One of the primary objectives of National Forest Management is the protection of the soil and watershed resources on National Forest lands, therefore, the Forest Service determined that the erosion control work was in the public interest. The watershed affected is extremely fragile and destruction of the soil resource through erosion is a long term loss. These roads have been closed for several years, but every year several vehicles have driven up on them compounding the erosion problem. The Forest Service needs your support when using the area surrounding Big John's Flat in order to continue the extremely heavy use without increasing regulations on the user. Users are requested to drive on the roads that have been established and not on the meadows.' The Skyline trail, which begins near the top of Big John's Flat and ends at Big Flat is a National Recreation Trail and is closed to four wheeled vehicle travel. It remains open to trail bikes, three wheeled bikes under 40" in width, horses, over-al- l and foot travel. Because of the need to protect the wateshed resource, we will need to enforce these closures. They are covered under Title 36 Code of Federal Regulations, part 261, subpart B, sections 261.54,261.55, and 261.56 as published in the Fishlake National Forest Travel Plan map. Violation of these regulations is subject to a fine of not more than FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($500) andor imprisonment for not more than SIX (6) months. For further information concerning these regulations, contact Fred Houston, Beaver Ranger District, P.O. Box E, Beaver, Utah 84713, or phone (801) 438-243- 4w - I VAL SMITH -- BELKNAP Elementary school teacher, helps Amber Myers get acquainted with computeriz- - Vi.- - . .V nun vsr 1 ed learning. Computers will allow expansion of curriculum without loss of quality. Beaver Co. Schools Get Computers In preparation for staying abreast of educational teaching aids all full time County School District have completed basic training in use of computers in the classroom. In the two weeks prior to the beginning of school a computer seminar was taught by John Kerksiek of Beaver High School, assisted by George Brown of the State Office of Education. Focus of instruction was on basic computer literacy, followed by subject example and personal experience with the computer using student programs. Teachers are now beginning to add this tremendous resource to their teaching tools. Examples of application at Belknap Elementary and Beaver High Schools are found in this issue of the paper. Initial emphasis has been primarily in math, science, social studies, and reading. As programs become available (and funding will permit) depth will be added in English, vocational education, home living, and the fine arts areas of music, art, speech, drama, and dance. District personnel believe the computer to have more potential for teachers in expanding the curriculum for small schools, and in meeting individual student needs than any teaching tool of the last century. Accordingly, all schools have now been provided with initial classroom computers one at the Minersville School, two at Milford Elementary School, two at Belknap Elementary School, four at Milford High School, and five at Beaver High School. District plans are to make additional computers and programs available to each school as funds will allow. Teachers will be provided with programs for individual instruction in all subject areas as they become available. It is expected that all students can benefit from these programs but especially those who need the challenge of accelerated instruction and those who may be struggling and need individual work to catch up. Parents are urged to visit the schools and become familiar with these new teaching aids. ' Belknap Back To School Night Thursday night, Sep- tember 16th will be back to school night at Belknap School for parents and other interested patrons. The program will start at 7:30 p.m. and follow this agenda. Welcome and introduction of PTA officers, PTA President, LaRayne Brown; Introduction of staff. Principal Dan F.

We will be most pleased if The Beaver Press would join us in the observance of National Card and Letter-Writin- g Week by recognizing, editorially, the importance of the written word, as expressed in letters, in influencing opinions, lifting spirits and preserving memories. It would be most appropriate if you could publish a small box on your Letters-to-the-Edit- page the week of September calling attention to the fact that it is National Card Week and Letter-Writin- g and that the importance of letters is being emphasized by the I'cs'al Service, the National Association of Elementary School Principles, the National Council of Teachers of English, the National Association of Secondary School Principles, the American Library Association, tie National Art Education Association and the American Family 19-2- Society.

Students in grades kindergarten through 12 are invited to submit their drawings in school. The teachers will then send the art to local post offices so it can be exhibited there, as well as in schools, libraries and other local facilities. The designs will be reviewed by members of the National Art Education Association before being submitted to the Postal Service's Citizen's Stamp The Advisory Committee. committee will recommend selected designs to the Postmaster General for final approval.
