The Blazer was delivered to the school by Steve Keller and Jerry Mosher, Chevrolet Motor Division area representatives from Salt Lake City, and Ron Yerage of Merrill Bean Chevrolet, Ogden. According to Ray Child and Bill Barker, automotive instructors at Clearfield High School, and Max Belnap, electronics instructor at the school, the vehicle will be used as a teaching and visual aid. The instructors said the Blazer will be dismantled and Belnap will take the electrical units and mount them on a platform. In this way students will be able to see a complete electrical system and how it functions. Belnap said, This is the first time we have been able to do anything like this, and we are very happy to have this vehicle. Other instruments will be dismantled and mounted on platforms also. The teachers said most people dont know what goes on under the hood of a car and this way the students can see as well as read about engines. Richard E. Lannen, Chevrolets national director of service operations, said We started this program in 1971 because we found schools could really use these cars and trucks that would normally be cludes gifts of passenger car and truck engines, transmissions, tools and various major automotive components used for testing or de- sign development. According to Lannen, any nonprofit educational institution may qualify for the donation of a vehicle or component. Terms of the donation are that the vehicles must never be operated again, and recipients must sign an affidavit that they will not be driven. Donation tags are fastened to the vehicles and tossed into the crusher for Chevrolet removes vehicle identifiscrap.He added, In addition to cation numbers. these damaged vehicles, engineerChevrolets 44 zone sales offices ing test and pilot line vehicles, not suitable for sale, are included in throughout the country coordinate donations whenever an accident the program.

This is due to two factors, ac- cording to Director of School Lunch Dale Schimmelpfennig. The first factor is that school lunch personnel in the district are willing to make an extra effort to keep costs down. The second factor is reduced federal regulations. An example of federal regulations is smaller portions required in the elementary schools. This will mean less waste and, therefore, a savings. A second example of reduced federal regulations is in the junior and senior high schools where students must still be offered all items of a Class A meal, but they may accept or be served three out of five of th basic components of a meal. This, too, should result in less waste. r New Center cost will increase to $20.
