Order Representatives voted 369 to 20 to ex- tend their Housing and Community Development Act for three more years. Congressman Dan Marriott said today. The new version provides block grants from the Department of Housing and Urban development for cities and towns for development projects. Marriott said the new grant formula will triple the allotment available to areas in Utah by 1980 and nearly double it for Salt Lake and the metro areas along the Wasatch Front.

Salt Lake's entitlement would reach $6.2 million compared to the $3.9 million they received from HUD just last week under the program. He said the old program was based on overcrowded housing conditions, population and poverty, and the new one is based or the age of housing, population and pocrt level. This is how government should be run, concluded Marriott. When federal money is made available, there should be a minimum of strings attached. Under this program, the cities and towns decide within certain parameters how the money will be spent to best achieve their individual development objectives. v" Wtmffl County Libraries Expand Service by Jennie L. Hansen With the closing of Kearns outdoor swimming pool measures need to be taken to ensure Kearns youngsters have an opportunity for swimming lessons and water play such as they have enjoyed in previous years. Though Kearns enjoys one of the finest indoor pools available anywhere and it is priced well below most recreation pursuits it is still too expensive for large numbers of youngsters with time on their hands throughout the summer. Many young people have learned to swim at the old pool through the county recreation program. Since the program was free many youngsters learned to swim who otherwise would never have had the opportunity. Many children, especialy those in larger families, never have the money to pay for swimming lessons yet their need to learn swimming is just as great as that of any other children Swimming is more than a lifetime recreation or athletic skill. It is an essential safety measure to train as many children as possible to handle themselves in water. We feel teaching children to swim is of such prime importance that the funds which have allocated for maintaining and operating the pool in previous years should still be earmarked for a summer swim program for Kearns children and youth. A program should be arranged with the indoor pool to provide these young people with lessons and an open plunge without cost to them. If the land where the old pool is located is declared surplus and sold the money should remain in Kearns to provide Kearns children with an alternative swim or summer recreation program. ardening 'grandfather by Expanding Janice Community Service is an ongoing goal of the Salt Lake County Library A of means System. correlating and increasing library service, known as the Library Cluster System, was organized last fall. It took effect in December 1976. The Cluster System for the county is under the direction of Mr. Guy Schuurman, head of the Salt Lake County System. Three or four branch libraries within the system are formed into each Clusters or geographic unit. One librarian in each is cluster as named correlator. In the Cluster which includes the Magna, Kearns, and Granger, libraries, Paul Jacobson, the Granger head librarian, is correlator. The libraries meet at least once a month to review problems and successes. Much though is given to changes that might be made to better serve the patrons of the libraries. Some services being currently offered at the Independent Study Program. For example, a patron might approach his librarian with a desire to learn everything water in your garden is to reduce the total evaporative area. A garden loses from evaporation through the leaves of plants and there's not much y ou can do about that. But a garden also loses water by evaporation from the surface of the soil and you can reduce this loss. One way to save on One of the most obvious devices for reducing evaporation is to decrease the size of your vegetable garden. Now you don't have to settle for less vegetables or fewer varieties from the smaller space. You can produce more from a given area by adapted modern varieties planted as thickly as the lortilitv of your soil will permit, and in somewhat shorter rows Band planting is one ol the techniques to permit you to harvest more from a given area Instead of planting seeds or transplants in single rows, you plant three or tour closely-spaceparallel rows or a band of vegetables. This works especially well for carrots, lettuce, beets and greens such as mustard, turnips and endive. With these compact vegetables, you can begin harvesting while the plants are quite small, making room for the remaining plants to row. Band planting is not practical for vegetables that have large plants-squas- h. tomatoes, and corn, for example. Later I'll tell you about the Gardening Grandfather's proven system for reducing evaporation by placing water deep in the soil. using 1 ' about auto possible mechanics. The librarian would confer with libraries throughout the area and give a recommended course of reading. The books needed would be located for the would-bmechanic. All libraries now have a Notary Public. This service is exclusive with the Salt Lake County Libraries. The Interlibrary Loan System is an important asset of the county library system. This enables libraries to borrow, not only from the branches, but from the University of Utah to give patrons access to a wider range of publications. It also gives patrons access to the Denver Bibliographic Center. The library can now locate any publication needed, as long as it is in the United e OPEN HOUSE Public Invited If.

The library offers an Audio-Visu- Department where library users can check out tapes, cassette players, records, record players, opmovie aque projectors, projector, films, including some films, and framed copies of paintings which may be checked out for one month. Currently the library has a Savin. This is a new copying machine which provides copies for only five cents each including photo copies. One advantage to this new machine over the old copying machine is that it can make a copy in four seconds. The county system has a production center where all kinds of office equipment are available for patron use including typewriters to be used at the library. At the branch libraries, there are bulletin boards in conspicious areas near the doors. These boards are posted with information that should interest the patrons. Conference rooms for meetings are available for public use by reservation at the branch libraries also. Many community education classes and service groups meet in libraries now. There are currently classes in Eastern Dancing, painting, browninie meetings, Zephyr Poetry chapter, Star Trek International and community council meetings to name a ACADEMY PTA officers for the coming school year were elected May 5 at Academy Park Elementary School.
