Henry Dipo had been replaced Jan. 1 by N. D.

Since Jan. 1, 1966, the record showed, Mr. Dipo worked 72 days and was off 67 days. The department allows two weeks sick leave and three weeks vacation. The officers record for April, Chief Hayward said, showed that Mr. Dipo bandied no radio calls, investigated no accidents and issued no citations for the entire month. The record shoved that In March he was scheduled night shift 11 days and was oft ten of those days, In addition to his six scheduled days off. dising field. u 26. 1966 A2 salt palace: part four (Continued from page 1) on the National Association of Ironically, July 8, Auditorium Managers, the Review is informed, will hold their annual convention.. mot In the Vegas convention center, but in the Sahara Club. One wonders, meanwhile, to what extern costs of solicitation have been taken Into account by the local auditorium board to obtain conventions for the local facility. Jim Love told The Review how Houston, Texas, In order to take the National Association of Manufacturers convention away from Chicago financed a costly Junket including 'the Texas governor and the Houston mayor...sort of a OUI Olympics Junket for a single convention. Recently, toe local convention center board urged local civic and professional groups to get out and stump to bring conventions of their national organizations to Salt Lake City...but, as Mr. Lowe suggested, membership (votes in convention) make the big impression on decisions. About those who will argue that even if we cant get AMA and toe Shriners national conventions NAM and here, we can try for toe medium sized events.. .What about those? The Review this week contacted Robert Welch, executive secretary, Steel Service Cater Institute, Cleveland, Ohio. The organization plans toe anneal convention for its members...toe managers and owners of steel warehouses throughout toe country. That organization, Mr. Welch told The Review, is most concerned with adequate hotel facilities.. mot so much with exhibit space. Hotel management must have been around long enough that we know that we can work with them, Mr. Welch said. The group draws 1,100 persons to its conventions. It requires in a single facility banquet and meeting room facilities and lodging (at least 500 rooms) for the L100. Can Salt Lake City improve its chanees for getting this organization and many others like it by construction of a convention center? This organization, like most others, like all others which must make recommendations to professional and trades ' groups, keeps detailed minutes, Mr. Welch said, of toe performance of the hotel in servicing its conventions. Such minutes go into toe record and are viewed from year to year. The group represented by Mr. Welch, in addition to other conveniences, must have an area in which we can have cocktails. Mr. Welch said that 'One of the big problems in Salt Lake would be your liquor laws.. Jt would be a big deterrent There are other critical problems faced by Salt Lake City as a convention competitor... problems which, because of geography, cant be modified. Several convention groups can be expected to show concern, as Mr. Welch does, with through transportation. Cities selected for conventions must have good airline schedules from all over toe country. They must have no transfers and a minimum number of stops enroute. Mr. Welch told The Review that his office receives from 40 to 50 requests each year from cities and states asking for toe Steel group convention. Most such requests come from governors and mayors, but we can do little more than be polite with most of them Mr. Welch reported that Denver has been Inviting the steel group for "many years and has finally been selected for toe 1969 convention. A local promoter, in conversation with a Denver civic auditorium official recently was told that the mile-higcity this year did not host a single major convention in 25-2- 217-mlll- ion h-' of having one such convention. Conventions are toe great hope of Salt Palace supporters to bring toe dollars into local coffers. Having little else to offer toe convent! oner, we offer them alpine beauty. That's all right for Switzerland to pull," one promoter said, but it wont work with us. We never really try to sell our scale beauty But, suppose we do try to sell it? What toa? Conventions by the score? Not at all! Scale atmosphere, said Jim Lowe from the nations capltoL is way down the list-oInducements forccnvatlon&ite selection. Then, theres the other big use we contemplate for the Salt Palace. Trade shows and exhibits. The Salt Palace complex has plans for a 45,000 sq. ft exhibition ball. With arena floor space, toe exhibition area grows to 69,000 sq. ft By cluttering up corridors and lobbies, we can make it up to 90,000 sq. ft Too badl The Review has a telegram from H. Werner Buck, Show Management Inc., Los Angeles, in which he notes that: 'Exhibit space of 100.000 square feet is minimum any city should consider building to attract successful shows, exhibitions and conventions How do other convention cities feel about Mr. Buck's advice?

Meanwhile, Salt Lake City and its 45,000 sq. ft exhibit center will compete not only with several private enterprise exhibit caters; it will compete with toe 50,000 square ft. exhibit hall to be added to the already available exhibit facilities at toe State Fair Grounds. Does that mean we should expand to 100,000 sq. ft toe presumption that the facility will magnetically attract toe function? Sorryl Salt Lake City has two very serious problems in this ara. We lie outside toe Industrial of toe nation. Apart from having practically no direct communication with the entire southern half of toe nation, toe nearest industrial strip to the west of us is 650 miles away; the narest to toe east over 900 miles away. Industry - it is an unavoidable truth, displays in its market. Where we have the market, the maker is too far away. Eva where we Ijave toe facilities, for many industrial products we fail to provide the market. For a time a local newspaper sponsoredboat shows.

Its a fact of life and Salt Lake City must face up to It Its a fact of life, too, that Salt Lake City las undertaken costs for facilities poorly located, as will be shown In toe next article in this series.

During discussion of what federal would Shape-U- p fads might be available, Dr. Ashpole suggested that Police Cadets, in addition to anting wages for their employmat in various divisions of the police mat, might be able to obtain matching finaclng with funds from toe federal assistace program. A possibility suggested was a federal loa to the cadet who would be exempt from repayment of the loa If he will accept police employmat at toe end of the four-ye- ar university training. Chief Flllis said he is determined to develop the education program for officers already on toe force, ad Dr. Ashpole indicated that classroom sessions under toe extension division probably ea be conducted either on or off campus. Such classes would be made available to ayone interested, but would be gared to toe practical interests of profession- als, rather tha toe interests of scholars in theory. Mr. Barker said that if federal fads cannot be obtained for this phase of toa education program, he will explore possibilities of city subsidization of individual officers In meeting costsof a study program. |
