Coplat Each Isiua During Preceding 12 Months There is nothing complicated, mysterious, or devious about the $2.5 million bond issue proposal to build two new swimming pools and an auditorium in Box Elder School district. six-ye- The sooner that all citizens accept this fact, the more logically they can evaluate the proposition and decide whether to vote for or against it. Briefly explained, heres whats included in the package: Two indentical indoor swimming pools. One will serve Box Elder High school. The second will be located for use by both Bear River High and Junior High schools. AS PROPOSED, the pools will be six lanes wide and 25 yards long for competative swimming events. Each will have a diving board at one at the other to end and an g shallow a area for swim provide L-le- instructions. space is provided for spectators and physical fitness activities, such as weight lifting, Mezzanine-leve- the main building and school gym. If voters approve the bond issue, the tax levy for capital outlay and debt service will be raised 1.75 mills. The bonds would be paid off over a period beginning July 1, 1976 and ending June 1, 1982. There are other factors, of course, which will be explored between now and Nov. 4 election day. But these are basic elements of the proposal. l wrestling and gymnastics. These pools are intended for community use during non school hours. And they should be. Fees undoubtedly will be charged the public. And they should be. The auditorium is proposed for Box Elder Junior High school. It will seat 700 persons with folding partitions to seal off space for 200 or two ar I cartify that tha statamants mada by ma abova ara corract and complata. C. C. Claybaugh Pubiishar ARE THE FACILITIES needed? We believe so. Sure, Box Elder district can limp along without them. Were doing it now. But it means living with in the educational system. Certainly the swimming pool need has waited its turn in the priority line. And how can you refuse students the advantages of an auditorium? Think about it.

It makes economic sense, too, providing the increased space in this manner. Do you have other questions or criticisms of the bonding proposal? Wed like to hear them.

Certainly the care and appearance of city property reflects the attitude of the municipal administration. In such an evaluation, Brigham City doesnt come away with high marks for street signing. Signs are not consistent in their size, height, color, or placement. What better opportunity will ever present itself to correct the situation than with installation of the new markers? It seems to us that a signing policy should be formed and put on paper as a guide now and in the future. The city council has accepted a recommendation of the traffic advisory committee to locate stop signs at all intersections, thus BUT AN INFLUENCE Dr. Darwin Woodbury, Principal - Bear River High School B.

We support this move since it also designates collector streets to effectively expedite traffic. But what about speed limit signs? Should they be placed at intervals on all city streets? On collector streets only? Or where? A related need, one which weve harped on editorially now for some time, is one to repaint street address sign posts; also, to repair or replace some of the signs. It should hve been done this summer season. The job will be even more extensive after the winters corrosive weather has worked further damage. and availability of game will allow.

Thats a good start. Now the task at hand is to get the job done. And to introduce a greater degree of consistency in local street signing. When reference is made to the quality of life offered in a city, factors include taxes, health of the economy, crime rate, and cost of living.

There are people who hit the trail in quest of game who display a total lack of respect for the offerings of ol Mom Nature. They kill as much as ammunition quality. The hunter-hate- r Editor: There has been so much rhetoric flying around on raises for teachers. What about the students? Are they being taught the basics of teaching, learning, and thinking? Is there a vocation they can choose for a job after high school? Not all can afford college. At the rate they are expelling students, putting them on the streets with no basis for jobs, is this the answer? Or are the vice principals contributing to the delinquency of these minors? Do we as taxpayers have the right to strike against the education system? Everybody strikes, why not? My experience in asking for help is a lost cause; in fact it really makes matters worse. These kids need some kind of group therapy to find their greviences and not make them take classes that have no bearing on their future lives. A lot needs looking into and not throwing the kids on the street. Its easy to expell them. But its surely a challenge to teach them. Get rid of the teachers that like Rs. They are also failures in my book. My experiences with the vice principal and the counselors are some thing to be looked into. I know this wont help my cause. But lets stop and think. There is no recreation, nothing for these kids to do. City officials cant afford any recreation. No jobs. Lets do something and keep these kids in school. Everybody wants a raise. Where do these kids have a chance? Do we taxpayers have a choice to strike? Or is private school the offering? H. A. Bluemel may not but some grasp the concept, sportsmen find their pleasure in keeping company with the land and its kind. Their enjoyment hinges not on the killing but the watching . . the smelling . . the listening. There are nimrods themselves trek the trails for years, never managing a mood that brings a full measure of enjoyment. They dont find excitement in splashes of autumn colors or the chattering of a squirrel or the rustling of aspen tree leaves in the breeze. They seemingly must pull down at every opportunity . . . never permitting a young doe to wander innocently away . . . never catching their breath in awe at the silhouetted flight of pintails against a late afternoon sky . . . never watching in fun as a cotton tail rabbit hops a few feet and then turns to peer back curiously. They are compelled to shoulder and shoot. Meeting the intent of regulations, yes. But often missing a marvelous moment shared with another of Gods creations. Too bad. who What about students? Keep it up, pal ! Editor: At the present time I am on an extended Mediterranean deployment, where hours are long and there is much mental and physical labor. Entertainment and laughs are few and far between. I would personally like to thank Mr. Adolph Kaltwasser for my weekly enlightment and humor. Keep it up, pal! OS2 Thomas R.
