Show Board Bushnell member Dan S. presented figures Thursday night on the Deser- et News sponsored Civic Dialon Kl'ED ogue, televised channel 7. In line with recent trends, the board expected to have 1,000 fewer students for the 1972-7school year tnan were in attendance during the previous year. But September showed a decline of more than 1,500 in enrollment. And the depletion has continued so that now there are about 2,000 fewer students in the Salt district than there were 3 last year. Dr. T. H. Bell, superintendent of the Granite School District, said the dearth of children which afflicts other urban aras in the state and nation in addition to Salt Lake City, is caused by white flight from the central city and by a dramatic decline in the birth rate. Bell noted that new houses in the Granite District used to produce 1.2 students per house. Now new houses yield .21 school children each. people IH,1ilp'iyfiltlniiHlil of the The 50th ST.
