Kent Gregersen, 2260 W. 4805 South, said the an, imals roam BLM rangeland in Nevada and other Western states. Although supposedly protected by a federal law signed in December, 1971, he said, they are being slaughtered for commercial products at an alarming rate. In some instances BLM officials seem anxious to get rid of the horses, Gregersen said. He cited an instance March 19 in which allegedly wild horses were shipped in the middle of the night from a ranch near Nev., to Ogden, and eventually to North Platte, Neb , where they were killed for commercial products and processed dogfood. including He said the BLM did not investigate the killings as vigorously as it should have. alert for freeze Hard freeze warnings are out for most of Utah tonight as a very cold air mass continues over the region. Considerable cloudiness Thursday night, along with some north winds, kept minimum temperatures from dropping much below freezing, but the story may be dif- ferent tonight. Lows are expected to drop into the 20s and the gusty north winds should decrease by evening. Variable cloudiness is predicted for tonight and Saturday with a few snow showers continuing. Snow showers were numerous over Utah Thursday, but there was little accumulation in valleys. However, m the mountains, Alta picked up 27 inches of new snow. Utah was faring much better than eastern Montana and eastern Wyoming, however, where blizzard conditions continued this morning. east of Rawlings, Wyo., was closed and there were reports of stranded motorists, miners and others who couldnt be reached due to roads and huge drifts. j ; W snow-clogge- d Tons of new snowr fell on the state. Lander had inches by Thursday night and Casper reported 14 inches. 18 Snow was not as much of a problem in Utah, but the road to Alta was still closed this morning, and blowing and drifting snow was reported in the Daniels Canyon and Strawberry areas. Light snow was falling on several highways throughout the state and some were icy in spots. Airport contract awarded Richardson Associates, a Seattle consulting firm, today was awarded a contract for researching and planning a massive expansion program at Salt Lake International Airport. City Commissioner Conrad B. Harrison said 40 consulting firms were considered for the job but an evaluation committee felt Richardson best met the criteria for the expansion planning research. Harrison said the firm will research and evaluate alternative approaches for establishment of the most desirable master plan layout for effective utilization of the airport. This firms first report will be due in three months, he said. The selection of a consulting firm f6r the expansion project became necessary because of the increased use of the Salt Lake airport. For example, Harrison said, at least one Boeing 747 jumbo jet will arrive at the airport each week, starting in July, and the airport expects 28 charter flights in June alone. Our slip is showing A typographical error in Thursdays Deseret News made it appear that environmentalists were unhappy that nearly three million acres of Utahs national forest land had been proposed for possible eventual wilderness designation. The fact is, there are nearly 300,000 acres. An extra digit was added to the figure by mistake. Certainly, not many Utah environmentalists would have complained about the higher figure, had it only been true. , ' Witm-eniucc- , ' Sj s |
