Show UfiIV:r3 Thiokol to Participate j Sal: In Minuteman Increase The anticipated increase in production of the Minuteman ICBM will go largely to Utah firms including Thiokol Chemical corporations Wasatch division in Box Elder county, according to Sen, Wallace F. Bennett Air For several months, the Force has been studying whether second to award contracts to sources in order to bring new companies into the Minuteman effort or whether to provide additional funds to companies now involved. Bennett said that after careful study, the Air Force has now decided on the second alternative, using present contractors. This comes as particularly good news to Thiokol, manufacturer of e booster of the the huge first-stag- missile. When contacted Wednesday, a company spokesman said Thiokol had not been officially notified and so he could make no comment on how the added funds may effect plant operation. Senator Bennett said the first step as a result of the AF decision has been allocation of $1.5 million to expand the Minuteman assembly plant at Hill Air Force base. The assembly plant is operated by Boeing corporation, prime contractor on the missile. Another Utah firm, Hercules Powder company of Bacchus, Salt Lake County, builds the third-stag- e engine. The second stage is produced by in Aerojet General corporation California.

Talbot noted that all things considered, taking the youngsters to Perry will be better than setting up temporary buildings on the Mountain View campus. Chief objection to this arrangement is that access to restrooms can be gained only by going through a classroom or the school's room. The distance from Mountain View to Perry is about three miles. multi-purpos- e HOWEVER, school officials were quick to point out that the transporting of students to Perry will be for only one year.

The tour is being jointly sponsored by Utah State University Extension service. Soil Conservation Service and Western Phosphates, Inc. All farmers are urged to attend, Allred said. Starting point will be the Joseph Yates Farm in Harper starting at 8:45 a.m. The next stop will be the farm of Newell Checketts, Bear River City, and from there, the group plans to visit the Flnter Larsen farm at Corinne. y The tour is scheduled to end at about 2 p.m. Allred said the results of using a commercial fertilizer phosphoric acid is readly apparent at the Yates farm where it was applied A study of the first on alfalfa. crop shows that where 80 pounds were applied per acre, the yield was nearly doubled and the gross value of the hay rose from $19 to $33.50.
