Some estimates Ive heard 250-678- 4 LEGAL NOTICE Elementary 1977 Hatch Upset On Cuts i MANAGING EDITOR THURSDAY, JULY 14, MAGNA TIMES two-thir- Senate Action Sees Approval Of Central Utah Project Unit The action of the Senate in approving the Bonneville Unit of the Central Utah Project should be read as a tribute to the people of the State of Utah and the officials of the Central Utah Water Conservancy District. The solid support of the citizens and the tireless efforts of District officials complemented the actions of the Congressional delegation. It was clear from the Appropriations Committee action that the Unit had been amply justified to the members. For instance, the Report of theCommittee on the Water Projects Bill included this language about Bonneville: ...The recommended appropriation of $31,965,000 for fiscal year 1978 provides for construction of the Alpine aqueduct, Vat Tunnel, Stillwater Tunnel, and Provo Reservoir canal rehabilitation; award of contracts for West Fork pipeline, Vat Diversion Dam and feeder pipeline, relocation of West Side Strawberry Reservoir road, and other related items; and for continued preconstruction work on other project features. The testimony on this project is impressive and the Committee agrees that the need for the water to be developed and delivered both for municipal and industrial purposes and irrigation purposes is so compelling that the project should proceed as planned. If testimony in favor of the Bonneville Unit is "impressive it is so because the local officials did their jobs. They supplied to the Congressional delegation the information needed to make the case before the relevant Committees of Congress. Once the bill has been reported from the Committee, and scheduled for floor action, the important action takes place on a personal basis, Congressman to Congressman, Senator to Senator. Before that, the important action is supplying information to the Committee staffs and the Senators involved. It is at that level that the Central Utah Water Conservancy District were so effective. When we needed the answers to specific questions, we were able to get them; when facts and figures were needed to supply background to those interested, they were forthcoming. This stage of Congressional action is essentially finished. The Bonneville Unit was accepted by both the House and Senate, and so will certainly be included in the bill presented to the President. It is possible, however, that President Carter will veto the Bill, either because he still opposes some of the projects in ti, or because the general bill contains money for the Breeder Reactor, a nuclear process that the President opposes. At that point, it will be necessary to round up enough votes to override the veto. On the basis of past performance, we can expect Utahs knowledgeable water officials to e able to supply us with all the information needed to get the support we need Youth Places Fourth In National Olympics David D. Turner of 4954 S. 4180 West recently returned from Cinncinnati, Ohio where he placed fourth in the National United States Skill Olympics. He placed first in the Utah State competition for which he was awarded a gold medal, and also first in the district contest held at Utah Technical college. While attending Utah Technical college at Salt Lake and being a member of the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America, Turner was eligible to compete in the district competition where high school and college machine drafting students vied for the honor of representing their colleges in demonstrating their skills at the State competition. After placing first in the district level, Turner went on to state competition where he had to endure four hours of solving a design and drafting problem presented to over 60 students by local business engineers. At the Utah State Olympics he was awarded a gold medal. He went on to represent Utah and the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America among more than 4200 students attending the national Olympics in Cinncinati, Ohio. He was accompanied by his wife, Paula and his advisor, Tom Ellison. In the national competition five engineers from General Electric Rocket Motor Division in Cinncinnati compiled the problem presented to the contestants. Turners seventy-fou- r skill in drafting and design enabled him to solve the problem that was put before him, placing him fourth at the thirteenth annual Vocational Industrial Clubs of Americas convention for the United States Skill ' Olympics. Turner graduated June 3, 1977 through the Graphic Arts Division of Utah Technical College with a grade point average of 3.87. He earned his Associate of Applied Science degree, majoring in drafting and design technology. This fall Turner will continue his education seeking a Bachelors Degree in the mechanical engineering field at the University of Utah. David is the son of Duane and Norma Turner of Yellowstone, Wyoming (formerly of Lyman, Utah) his wife, Paula is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lyle W. Reid of Magna, Utah. David and Paula have three children, Tima 10, Barbara 7, and Troy 5 who are currently enjoying an extended vacation in Mammoth, . Wyoming. Contest Seeks New Data On Utah History The Utah State Historical Society and the Women in Utah History Task Force of the International Womens Year are a contest for scholarly and amateur writings on topics related to the history of women in Utah and the contributions of individual women or womens groups to the state. Cash prizes totaling $200 will be given to the winning manuscripts. The purpose of the contest is to elicit articles for possible publication in Utah Historical Quarterly. Subjects suggested by the sponsors include biography, the arts, business, politics, medicine, the home, nonpolitical womens organizations, or any other subject that features a woman or women in Utah. Women have yet to be given their full measure of recognition in Utah history, according to Dr. Veronica E. Tiller, assistant professor of history at the University of Utah and education, contest chairperson. From the earliest days of Utah settlement women have run businesses, managed farms and ranches, delivered babies and healed the sick, administered and staffed the schools, participated in politics and the arts, and organized their own social and civic groups, she We hope this contest will said. stimulate women, and men, too, to research and write about the contributions of individual women and womens groups to the state. Dr. Stanford J. Layton, managing editor of Utah Historical Quarterly, noted that a 1970 issue of the magazine that featured women has long been out of print. Utahns obviously want to know more about women in the state. We think this contest is one way of stimulating further research on this subject. Maximum of each length manuscript is 25 type written doublespaced pages, including footnotes. Manuscripts should be mailed to Dr. Veronica E. Tiller, Department of History, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah 84112, by November 30, 1977. Contest judges include Dr. Tiller, Dr. Jean B. White of Weber State College, Mrs. Helen Z. Papanikolas of the Board of State History, and Dr. Beverly Beeton of the University of Utah. Foir ioord PIqdds July Meefinci Dm Soli?
