Show F Volume Number Tooele, Utah, Friday, September 27, 1968 Seventy-Fou- r Nerve Gas Destined For Tooele Storage Representative Sherman P. Lloyd, reported Tuesday that some, but not all, of the chemical nerve gas being transferred out of the Rocky Mountain Arsenal at Denver will be relocated at Tooele Army Depot. THE UTAH Congressman made the announcement following a briefing in his office by Brig. Gen. William W. Stone, Jr., of the Army Materiel Command headquarters in Washington. The Tooele Army Depot has safely received and stored this chemical agent in munitions for Rep. Lloyd said. many years, However, I have asked and received assurances from General Stone that every safety precaution possible will be taken during the transfer of these chemicals and storage at Tooele. Rep. Lloyd said it is also possible that some of the materials which may be excess to Army needs will be destroyed by burning at Dugway Proving Ground, the Armys testing center for the chemical agent. Dugway was involved in a controversy last March when some 6,000 sheep died following an airborne spray test of the agent. REP LLOYD said the agent would be stored above ground in one-to- n steel containers which lay horizontally. He said the agent is a fairly heavy liquid, and added that there is relatively little danger of wide dissemination of the chemical even if it were not confined in the security tanks. The Army announced in August that it would transfer most of the agent from the Rocky Mountain Arsenal within a month, citing the growth of the Denver metropolitan area as one of the primary reasons for the decision. The arsenal is about 10 miles northeast of downtown Denver, and the tanks which stored the agent were in close proximity to the main traffic pattern of Denvers Stapleton International 1 ' Work Starts Monday On THS Auditorium Iverson Construction Company, Salt Lake City, whose low bid of $737,500 won the construction contract for Tooele High Schools new Auditorium will begin work Monday on the building. THE STRUCTURE of steel frame and brick will feature textured concrete and exposed outside ceiling beams. A spokesman for the architect Scott, Louie and Browning, Salt Lake City; also said the interior will have plush seats and a sky-l- it gallery designed for art exhibits. 12 bids for the auditorium were opened at a District School Board meeting Tuesday, September 17, but acceptance was delayed to allow for discussion by board members and the building architects to determine just how much money is available and to decide whether or not to eliminate the proposed music complex and air conditioning equipment. Their decision was to delete both of these alternates, thus reducing the cost by $112,000. The structure will be built to accommodate the air conditioning equipment, however, so it can easily be added later. The auditorium will be built just west of the schools gymnasium. The contract calls for 300 working days to complete the 1,495 seat plant. This means it will be ready for the start of school next year. Clarke Johnsen, Superintendent of Schools, stated that he is hopeful . that the actual building time will be less than 300 days. - Drugs Subject Of Lecture Captain Anderson of the Bountiful City Police Department will show a film and lecture on and narcotics, drugs abuse Sunday, September 29th at the Clover Cultural Hall at 8 p.m. This program has been arranged by the Clover Ward, St. John, Stockton and Dugway. All who are interested in hearing and seeing Captain Anderson are invited to attend. THE TOOELE School District now owns all of the land between the High School and the Jr. High School. Part of the land will be used for a new parking lot to be a part of the auditorium complex. Three firms tried 'for the contract to build the lot, two from Salt Lake City and England Bros. Construction Co., of Tooele. Superintendent Johnsen said he was happy that England Construction was the low bidder. They bid $10,699.80 and will begin construction soon. Crops Hit By Frost The Public Information Office at the Tooele Army Depot reports that this is not a new assignment for the facility. The south area of the depot (the old Deseret Chemical area) was originally built for gas and chemical storage. The removal of the gas from Denver therefore does not change the mission of the Tooele installation.

He stated their primary interest was to protect the consumer by helping to insure the of foods sanitation and quality . stuffi offered for sa e in Utah. The Department has four ma- jor divisions. First the division giving state supervision of meat packing. Second the department state inspection of food imports and including weed and insect control. Third, labora- tory analysis, which is involved with drug abuse, narcotics, and bedding and upholstery materials. And fourth, the consumer services division, supervising weights and measures, dairy products, and other foods and drugs. Mr. Tolley reported that some groups of people easily fall prey to health quacks. Among them are those who do not believe in government agencys and what they say they do not accept the idea that any government can be interested in their welfare. An- other volnerable group are those he calls last chance people. People who have extreme medical prob- lems and desperately grasp at anything. Mr. Tolley emphasized that his department is always open to the consumers ears, and if its at all possible they will help you with your specific problems.

Tree Fights Back Mr. Arthur Fields of Tooele narrowly escaped serious injury Tuesday afternoon when he was pinned in his car by a falling tree. Mr. Fields was attempting to pull down the tree with a cable attached to his vehicle when the trunk broke allowing the tree to fall in an unexpected direction crushing the car.
