The apparent low bid of for the 10.5 mile project was submitted by Pay-so- n Asphalt Products of Ogden, Utah. The official engineer's estimate was $2,3.10,715.

In 1967 the road was added to the State Highway Network for development as ac- cess to the newly established Great Salt Lake State Park. Since then, the Highway Department, Davis County and lo-cal communities have provided men, trucks and fill materials in attempting to keep the causeway open Many attempts have been made to obtain funding for the necessary improvements for the causeway, but it was not until this year when the State Legislature appropriated five million dollars for improvements to the Great Salt Lake State Park.

Strong interest in the Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island bv tourists is a prime factor in developing this unique Utah feature. More than 200,000 visitors annually have visited the Creat Salt Lake State Park since the was opened. These causeway visitors have come from all parts of the country as well as from local communities. This broad scale use of the park is the intent of the State Division of Parks and Recreation and can now again be provided when the new project is completed. A. Yes. A childs pay- ments no longer stop because of adoption. A child, like your daughter, whose payments were previously stopped because of adoption can again receive monthly benefits. Contact any social security office to reapply for benefits for your adopted daughter. Benefits may be paid back to October 1972. Q. A friend told me that my grandson, who lives with me, might be able to get social security payments when I retire this year. Is this true? TT AS A RESULT of this growing popularity of the bicycle, a new and authoritative set of bicycle safety rules was developed by the National Safety Council in cooperation with the Bicycle Institution of America and the Schwinn Bicycle Company to provide a uniform safety guide for bicyclists. If every bike driver would follow these rules to the letter, the appalling toll of bicycle related accidents and fatalities could be greatly reduced. The new Safety Bike Driving Rules are: 1. Obey all applicable traffic regulations, signs, signals, and markings. Bicycles should be driven as safely as any road vehicle and subject to the same rules of vehicular traffic where ever they apply. A good rule of thumb is to avoid congested streets and use bikeways, lanes, or' pass where possible. 2. OBSERVE ALL local ordinances pertaining to bicycles. inspecRegistration, licensing, tions, driving on sidewalks, etc. may be covered by local laws. It is vour responsibility to know and abide bv them. 3. Keep right. Drive with traffic, not against it. Drive single file.' Keep as close to the curb as practical. Most states re- quire you to drive single file for when driving two abreast a minor swerve could force you into traffic lanes. 4. Watch out for drain grates, soft shoulders, other road surface hazards. Be careful of loose sand or gravel, particularly at corners and watch out for potholes. 5. WATCH OUT for car doors opening or for cars pulling into traffic. 6. Dont carry passengers or packages that interfere with your vision or control. A good rule is one person, one bike, unless its a tandem. Use baskets or luggage carriers for packages. 7. Never hitchhike a ride on a truck or other vehicle. 8. BE EXTREMELY careful at intersections; especially when making a left turn. Most accidents happen at intersections. 369 6 Horsepower It two-sta- impeller) If you get up earlier in the morning than your neighbor, work harder, scheme more, stay up later figuring out how to make more money, bum the midnight oil more planning how to get ahead of your neighbor while he s sleeping, not only will you leave more money when you did, but youll leave it so much sooner. has four speeds forward, reverse and a (chewing, chopping auger and high speed snow-thro- action. w A 240 swing-aroun- d discharge chute throws the snow up to thirty feet.
