Public school enrollments may begin to decline next year. This was predicted by Utah Foundation the private nonprofit research organization in a study of the 1970-71 school finance program andthe outlook for the future. Major reasonfor the expected decline next yearis that reduced birth rates during the early and middle 1960’s are beginning to be reflected in smaller enrollments in the lower grades. The Foundation report notes that total school enrollment during the current (1969-70) school year is up only 0.4 percent over 196869, This is less than one-tenth the annual enrollment increase of 4.8 percent recorded ten years ago in 1959-60.

Thelevel of Utah Lake seems to be receding from compromise level, according to Alfred J. Madsen of the Utah Lake Association. Highest level reached by the lake this year was .0/ of a foot below compromise. The lake as of April 1 has dropped to .20 of a footbelow the compromise level. Mr. Madsenindicated thatit was not known just how much the recent precipitation would affect the receding trend. He felt, however, that the amount would not seriously change the picture. He also stated that the amount of waterintroduced to the lake through the Provo River would probably not be a factor. The river was shut off almost two months ago, and water from other rivers has been diverted through canalsystems instead of flowing directly into the lake. “One hundred second feet or even two hundred second feet constant flow down the Provo Riverhas verylittle effect on the lake,” Mr. Madsensaid. ; State Hospital To Present ‘Spring Thing’ Patients at the Utah State Hospitalwill host townspeople at their “Spring Thing” Friday at 6:30 in the main white building.
