It seems that many of the dog owners in this town dont care if their pet runs loose, particularly during the hot weather. Observers have seen small children frightened by dogs that are not large by most standards, but are none the less frightening to a child who is not acquainted with a strangers dog. Most mothers, and wisely so, teach their children not to touch dogs because they bite. If it is Grandmas aging pet, it is a different matter, but to a child who only knows that dogs bite, it can be a terrifying ordeal to be confronted by a small terrier bent only on a good game of After calling the County Animal Control Dept, and receiving a busy signal for an hour solid (at 8 a.m.) finally we received the information that one need only give them a call at to have the problem taken care of. We also learned Control officer is out in the county each and every day, that the in our fair city. Perhaps his truck is not necessarily though painted in camouflage, or perhaps he only comes at odd hours, at any rate , no one can remember seeing him for a while Maybe the solution is to call every day until something is done about the problem. Other situations have shown the value of this tactic. Maybe the solution is to consider how many miles the officer has to patrol in the county and quietly ask your neighbor is he would mind tying up his brute. At any rate, something must be done before the dogs become a real nenace M GLEN ADAMS Assistant Publisher Business Manager Associate Editor Afton Cameron Peggy Adams E lla Einpey Staff r.

Major Benjamin Tupper led 300 men in whale boats. Their mission was to halt repair of the light house, which had been burned in the first raid on July 21, and to capture the British guard and workmen. The Americans were successful. Killing or capturing the entire enemy force of one officer, 23 marines and 10 carpenters, while suffering only two casualties. Before adjourning on August 1, 1775, the Continental Congress took care of two critical matters. On July 31, 1775, Congress rejected Lord Norths reconciliation plan, under which England would have delt with each colony individually, thereby avoiding tacit recognition of the Continental Congress. Lord Norths plan was really a British scheme to divide the colonies and render them incapable of mounting a united revolutionary effort. Congress also took up the problem of gunpowder before it adjourned. America had no munitions industry, (England hadnt allowed it to develop), and the Pediment had cut the colonies off from foreign supplies of gunpowder several months earlier. Congress, and the provincial assemblies, had to encourage gunpowder production and insure an adaquate supply of saltpeter, (gunpowder was then made of 75 percent saltpeter, 15 percent charcoal and 10 percent sulfur). A July 28, 1775 called on all local Congressional proclamation committees of safety to buy - or take - salt peter from every source available. Bounties and loans were offered to encourage the production of gunpowder. Treatises, such as and Benjamin Rushs Essays upon the Making of Salt-Petr- e Gun Powder, were published. Almanacs and popular magazines told readers where to find saltpeter in nature, how to refine it and how to turn it into gunpowder. At the same time, secret efforts to import gunpowder and its ingredients from foreign nations got under way, and eventually France became Americas major supplier of gunpowder. -- -- iMintWAWTlOS eRES BIG GAME... Utah 260-626- 1 Congressman T. Howe & Americans FROM PAGE The amount of damage was undetermined. Also reported that day was a grass fire along side of the road at 8500 W. North Temple. Firemen gas washed the road at 3700 S. 8400 West after a truck overturned on July 29. Firemen Henry Norris was taken to the hospital when he severed a tendon in his finger while trying to release the driver of the truck. Ambulance calls for the week began on July 26 when Ron Steed, 3745 Market, was taken to Valley West Hospital. Two others were rushed to Valley West Hospital on July 27. Mary Howard, of 2735 S. 8700 West, was taken to St. Marks Hospital July 28. Early Tuesday morning Joel Johnson of 6310 S. 9th East, was rushed to Cottonwood Hospital after the truck he was driving rolled over.

Roberts & Anderson Construction Company of Provo was the apparent low bidder with a $277,350 bid. The official engineers estimate was $248,950. This project was originally opened for bid on June 3, 1975, but the lowest bid was 31 per cent over the official engineers estimate so the Commission rejected it. The Utah Department of Transportation Engineers felt there was a high probability that bids closer to the official engineers estimate would be received if the project were readvertised. This project, which should be completed in 2 years, calls for repair and modification of signs due to accidents, vandalism, safety considerations, or damage from natural causes. It is unique in that it is somewhat open ended. The Department of Transportations six districts have the option to have the contractor make sign repairs or modifications in cases where it is not economically practical for the districts to keep on inventory the materials and equipment necessary to do the work with state forces. That's the thing to remember if you're in afire and the air's hard to breathe. Get on all fours and crawl out. Good air stays near the floor. Smoke and deadly gases rise. It's easy to forget this at such a frightening moment. So promise yourself that you'll remember. And you'll crawl out Alive.

(Ted) Moss today obtained Senate approval of an amendment to the Consumer Product Safety Act to eliminate the regulation of firearms by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The amendment also prohibits jurisdiction of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act from the same regulation. Passage of this amendment means the Consumer Product Safety Commission is, once and for all, out of the ammunition policing business which has been of such strong concern to those who use firearms, Senator Moss noted. An unexpected and extended debate against Vine amendment was led by Senator Edward Kennedy Senator Moss fought off this rear guard attempt to the labeling and defective ammunition provision which he had earlier stricken from the bill. The measure finally won by a margin. The amendment now goes to the House where Senator Moss predicted there would be no objection and expects passage in a week or two.

Badger Business Administrator, Treasurer Board of Education Granite School District Date of Publication: July 17, 1975 July 24, 1975 August 1, 1975 Road Closed Redwood Road in Salt Lake County between 5770 and 6200 South was closed for a week beginning Monday, July 28, according to the Utah Department of Transportation. Traffic started detoured Monday being morning onto 5770 South to 1300 West and back to Redwood Raod on 6235. South. The closure is necessary so that crews can widen Redwood Road to four lanes and place steel beams for the overpass. Crews will work double shifts to keep the closure time as short as possible. We have two options for this project, said DOT Project Engineer Duane Christensen. We can keep traffic moving through the construction, but it would be one lane at a time and drivers would encounter delay. Also it will take two or three weeks to complete the project with this option. But we still would have to close Redwood Road for four of five days to place the steel beams for the overpass. Our other option is to close the road for a week and get everything done at once. John Nye, DOT Engineer for the project, complimented the two contractors involved. Jack B. Parsons Construction Company is working or Redwood Road and Peter Kiewit Sons Construction is working on They are two separate but the two projects, contractors have been working together and coordinating their efforts so that the project can be completed with a minimum of inconvenience to the public. Department officials hope Redwood Road will be open again to traffic Monday, August 4. |
