Lynn Thatcher, deputy director of health, said all culinary waterworks systems will be affected by the water and warned waterworks shortage officials to keep culinary systems full at all times Low pressure could allow contamination of the system through leaks and he explained If it becomes necessary to put water from questionable emergency sources into a system, it should be heavily chlorinated to remove bacteria, viruses and cysts which are probably present, and in any event, no such water should be ingested or used for personal hy giene until it has been boiled at least 15 minutes, Mr Thatcher said He noted that portable water treatment units are not practical or safe for the purpose of converting ditch water into drinking water s, It's ridiculous, absurd See Page B-- 1 straight school Your in mother-in-la- plans to spend the summer with you.

Elementary Students If kindergarten classes in that area continue to grow at the current rate, the number of elementary students west of 2200 West is expected to exceed 22,000 by 1982. In addition, Granite has about 1,800 special education students in special programs. This student population is growing by about 10 per cent per year, Dr Riches said However, recently enacted federal regulations may require that many of the less severely handicapped special education students be moved out of specialized sett ngs and into schools in their own neighborhoods. As an example of the growth occurring on the west side, Granites new Bennion Elementary School, 5900 South 2850 West, will open next fall with 650 students. While Bennion will provide some relief for three other schools, it will be opening nearly at capacity. Theres little room for growth. And from the Bennion area, rows of new subdivisions containing hundreds of new homes in vanous stages of construction stretch west to Kearns, north to the Hunter area and west to Magna in an almost unbroken band Anticipated Growth Other examples of anticipated growth, providing attendance boundaries remain unchanged and no new schools are built, include projection that Taylorsville Elementary School, 2010 W 4230 South, could see its Sec Page Column I B-- cause," Janet still a lot of yellow nylon rope," President Stumping in Utah Sees Membership Growth for State UMW I said again The Junior League is also looking for 5' 5 in inch stakes to pound into the giound around the course (probably to hang the yellow nylon rope oni NI THEY NEED a portable bU.u lu i that will so.it 100 golf fans at 1n per cent raise in monthly sewer bills Auto Collision Kills Trio explained.

Growth Expected Now, distnet officials note tha in a number of eastern elementary schools the kindergarten classes are larger than sixth grade classes, indicating the decline has leveled off and new enrollment growth can be expected. On the west side the picture is more dramatic. Of he nearly 4,800 kindergarten students in the district this year, about 2,600 of them live west of the Belt Route (about 2500 West). Though official enrollment projections for next year have yet to be made, the unofficial expectation is for approximately 61,300 students.

Boundary Changes Without the issue, Granite would have to look forward to many individual school attendance boundary changes, cross-distribusing for large numbers of students, double sessions in many elementary schools and extended day schedules for secondary schools, district officials fear. The problem, the officials say, is that Granite, the states largest district, is expecting a new student population Ik om after a few years of decline Rapid growth in student numbers has already begun on the west side of the sprawling district According to district statistics, Granites enrollment peaked with 62,435 students m regular programs m fall, 1971, and had declined to 60,988 as of Diane l ule W 1Mb hole Vnvbody got an old JOb seat bleacher around the bin k of the garage-- ) d Janet is also trying to find a citizen to donate two sound systems for the event, and she needs 80 vests for probably red or yellow the tournament marshals to wear.
