Ml rierpont avenue Salt L,ake, U t an -70 The Weather Appeal made for Blood donors U The American Red Cross bioodmcbile will be at the Helper civic auditorium Tuesday, May 27, from 3 to 7 p m., it has been announced by Mrs. Ernest Gardner and Mrs. Clear Creek, high Prec. .10, Albert Day, The stated the collection quota is 125 pints and of these 55 are needed to replace blood used from credit since the last visit of the this countys in August of 1968. blood-mobi- le This drawing on May 27 will not be restricted to Helper residents. Anyone from Price and the surrounding area who feels an obligation can donate at the Ile'per stop. It is pointed out that many Price area residents evidently passed up the chance to donate last August because at that time the number of pints collected was far below the quota. This drawing will give them a chance io get back into this worthwhile habit. To give a unit of blood is painless, takes only five or six minutes and best of all your body will rep'ace this blood in 24 to 48 hours. The two noted some of the following interesting facts on the blood program as it pertains to this area and the individual donor: In recent months it became necessary to call donors direcly to the hospital to give 50 pints of blood because there was none available in the Salt Lake b'ood bank. There is no charge for the blood itself collected in the Red Cross program, but there are hospital charges for the cost of administering it. A person can give blood every eight weeks up to five times a year and your body makes up the unit you give in 24 to 48 hours. There is a doctor present at all hours during the blood drawings, donors must be between the ages of 18 and 60 Every minute, every day, over 10 pints of blood are used in the United States to treat the ill and injured, which totals 5 million units a year. The goal of the Red Cross program is that no person dies for lack of blood anywhere, anytime. Youth Day parade Sat.

Or, if youre the rugged, outdoor type, the Daniel Boone television series and its principal character are likely to appeal to you. At least those are the contentions of a University of Southern California research study. The study contends adults tend to prefer and view most frequently those shows whose personalities the viewers perceive to be similar to their own personality. Gee, talk about 1984. Now Ive got to be careful about what television programs I watch for fear someone will be determining my personality by the shows I watch. I wonder what such a researcher would decide if he found that I have discovered that the darn TV set has an on and off button on it and often it isnt even turned on. At least Im glad I liked the old Perry Mason show. The USC researchers report hey feel theres some correlation between the intelligence level of the viewer and that perceived for the TV role. The better educated viewers are, the researchers report, the higher they rated Perry television Mason, the brilliant attorney in the series. Of course they don't say anything about how dumb a viewer has to be to always fall for some of Masons ' luck in the courtroom. Im also glad I couldnt stand that program of a season or two ago that concerned a weakling who gained all kinds of strength by taking some kind of special pill. The people that liked the show really need to worry if the USC researchers are correct. In surveying 206 married adults in the Los Angeles area, Maxwell V. Perrow of USC found that some personality traits of television roles appeal to a broad group youre self-assur- 26 Pages Volume 78 June 16 Rio Grande gives Notices to quit Zephyr operation The Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad, which operates the middle link of the California passenger Zephyr train between Chicago and San Francisco in conjunction with the Burlington and Western Pacific has served notice of discontinuance of the service effective June 16. The railroad made the announcement in notices posted in railroad stations, including Price and Helper, along the line last week. The formal request tor discontinuance of the famed train to the Interstate Commerce Commission calls attention to the dwindling of passenger business and 'the increased cost of operating the Zephyr. Railroad officials pointed to the increase of air travel, where the distance between Salt Lake City and Denver can be covered in an hour as compared to the Zephyr travel time of over 13 hours, and the increased use of private automobiles for travel, as the reasons for the continual drop in use of the passenger train service. d The colorful cars were first put into use 20 years y ago to enable passengers to get a caboose . car" view of the central plains states, the magnificent scenery through the Colorado Rockies, and the beauties of the Feather River vista-dome- route in the California Sierras. The train has been a familiar sight through Carbon County for a score of years and remains as the final means of rail passenger service for Eastern Utah. Stops are made in both Helper and Price, the latter station receiving the service when permission was granted for the discontinuance of the Rio Grandes Prospector train a few years ago. d According to Alexis McKinney, assistant to D. & R. G. president, G. B. Aydelott, the railroad expects opposition to the discontinuance. Opposition is sure to come from towns along the route which are stop overs for their areas. Citizen and organization responses should be funneled through the Interstate Commerce Commission. The discontinuance notice by the Rio Grande follows, up an attempt of a year ago by the Western Pacific to give up its share of the Zephyrs route, which is between Salt Lake City and Oakland, Calif.

Therefore, along with the Rio Grandes notice, the ICC also i faced with another ruling on the order to Western Pacific, a ruling which is due by July 1, 1969. Hearings on the Western Pacific notice last year brought forth many reasons for wanting the trains to continue and many people had suggestions for bettering the service rather than decreasing it. The same will probably ho'd true on the Rio Grande request, but the Zephyr may be doomed on two counts, lack of patronage from the public and lack of interest on the part of the lines to maintain first class service. Zephyr doomed to pass into railroad history as did the steam locomotive of yesteryear. 2-d- Commissioners exclude themselves ay Rock Public hearing set Show To May 24 and 25 in the National Guard armory in Price.

Sun-Advoca- te Based upon the recommendations of the elected officials of Carbon County in line with legislation adopted by the 1969 Legislature concerning the removal of salary restrictions, the county commissioners Tuesday night scheduled a public hearing on this matter to be held June 5 at 2 p.m. in the commission room of the county courthouse. Previous to the last session of the legislature, salary limits werp set by law on the. basis of the countys classification. This limitation has been removed but the legislature decreed that any changes in the salaries of elected officials be effected only after a public meeting is held. The commissioners have excluded themselves from any salary adjustments leaving the door open only to the other elected officials including clerk, treasurer, assessor, recorder, attorney, surveyor and sheriff. Commissioner Walter Maynard moved that the commission recommend a seven percent salary increase effective July 1, 1969, for the elected county officials, with the exception of the commiss-sioner- s themselves, and that the public hearing on the matter be called for June 5 at 2 p m. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Hector Chiara and car- Notre Dame 21, East Carbon 56, Carbon 237 Carbon Countys three high schools two public and one parochial-will award 314 diplomas at consider county Officials salaries The Castle Valley Gem Societys annual rock show is scheduled for charge. of viewers.

Under this amendment these places of business located within the county-at-larg- e will be allowed to remain open until 2 a.m. nightly during the period that daylight savings time is in effect. At the expiration of that period the closing hours will revert to the hours under the present ordinance, 1 a m. on week nights and 2 a.m. Saturday nights and on nights preceding holidays. The change in the ordinance was approved upon the recommendation of County Sheriff Albert Passic. Taverns and clubs located within incorporated cities and towns are regulated by city ordinances and the Price C'ty council at a previous meeting went on record, for the sake of uniformity, to adopt a similar amendment to' its ordinance providing the county agreed to amend its ordinance. The Carbon County Sheriffs Jeep Posse requested that the county permit the organization to use a room in the old airport building for its meeting place and headquarters. This request was granted. The room to be used by the posse was formerly used by one of the countys art clubs. Okay Sewer Grairt A telegram received from the office of Senator Frank E.

School board, teacher contract Teams continue negotiations The Board of Education of the Carbon County School District and representatives of the Carbon Education Association have met several times 'since the beginning of this ytear negotiating policies for the next school year. A schedule has been set up for negotiating teams of each group to formally meet and negotiate a new policy. It is anticipated that a satisfactory agreement can be formulated which will be, suitable for all concerned. Items for negotiating have been submitted by both groups. Items which are of a nature probably will be negotiated first with financial item's beirtg left for later meetings. According tb Sdperintendent J..

Letters of intent have been sent to the teachers of the district and these had been returned to the district by the CCEA prior to the return date which was May 16. At the Board of Education meeting last Thursday night.
