O LONG TUNNEL TO COPPER MINE NOWQMPLCTED March 6 Utah Construction Company crew are presently re-moving equipmeent and dismantl-ing facilities following completion last week of Kennecott Copper's new 5490 ore haulage tunnel. Swing shift crew mucked out the last few feet of the tunnel Sat-urday evening and were called to a halt at midnight two year and four month after the starting date. The 18,000 foot tunt.el is one of the longest single track mine tun-nel in the United States. It will be the third tunnel serving the ex-- 1 pending open-p- it copper mine of the Utah Copper Division and the longest. The other two tunnels are the 6040 tunnel, finished in 1945 and the 5840 tunnel finished in 1953. The latter tunnel, the longest of the two, is less than half as long as the new tunnel just completed. Although now ending some 150 feet below the present bottom of the open-pi- t mine, the new tunnel will eventually connect the bottom of the pit with the Copperton As-sembly Yard at the mouth of Bing-ham Canyon. The $11,000,000 tunnel was started Oct. 30, 1956 and wa not expected to be completed until early I960. However, as the work progressed, it was estimated the project could be completed in the spring of 1959, almost a year earlier. At the present time, Utah Con-struction crews are removing ven-tilation and electrical facilities throughout the tunnel. They toon will begin removing track end grading the floor of the tunnel for the permanent track which will be laid later. Construction company shops and other facilities at the mouth of the tunnel are also being dismantled and removed. These activities are expected to take about three weeks, according to C. A. Mason, project engineer, for Utah Construction Company. The tunnel project ha been un-der the direction of Poul C. Quinn, es project manager. M. F. Finlay wa tunnel superintendent. Prelim-inary work, including the construc-tion of drainage facilities at the mouth of Bingham Canyon, was actually started on Sept. 22, 1956. The new tunnel will reduce min-ing cost by eliminating the uphill haul by ore and waste trains com-ing from the bottom of the deepen-ing copper mine. The project is part of Kennecott' continuing ef-fort to improve operation. At point, the 18,000 foot tun-nel is 1,600 feet beneath the top "lip" of the open-pi- t mine. The tunnel is 18 feet wide and 24 feet high and concrete lined. Plan call for centralized traffic control to coordinate movement of ore and waste train in end out of the tunnel.

We are all "newscomers" at one time or another. Moving to a strange town is the same thing as going to a party or a social gathering and finding that there is not a "friendly" face in the crowd. But, even if they are sometimes hesitant, people and particularly teenagers, are frien-dlyand sociable.

They say she's "boy crazy" and don't like her. She is a neighbor of mine. I like her and know what they say isn't true. Can I keep all of my friendships?" Quit often, teenageri who move to a new town with their parents, despite the fact they may have been in the thick of eocial activities before the move, find they must go through a period of waiting before they are "accepted." The adjustment is gen-erally made in time. For some reason, it seems that boys accept "newcomers" much quicker than girls do. It would seem that girls like to wait and see what type of person the new-comer is; while boys get acquainted immediately and find out for themselves Actually, if the girls are wor-ried about the newcomer gather-ing a bunch oi boyfriends,, they EAGLES Bingham-Midval- e Eagles Aerie No. 659 is making plans to hold an rs and 54th anniversary party at the F.O.E.
