City hall will be one of first buildings heated by the city-owne- d system. Vacant Home Damaged By Fire - Fire ' - Associated Monroe residents are reportedly anticipating relief from using coal from central Utah coal Prass Laseroholo fields, although tapping goeothermal heat could be expensive. System will be used next winter. Special to The Tribune MURRAY caused about $3,000 damage Sunday w hen it broke out in an unoccupied home at 585 W. 4800 South, Murray. Capt. Wendell Coombs, Murray City Fire Department, said the blaze, which started shortly after 9 a m.t was apparently caused by rubbish being left near a space heater. He said it took about 45 minutes to extinguish the fire and that it was necessary to chop away much of the kitchen floor to get at flames which had spread underneath it. He said the house is owned by Samuel E. Crafts. Paul Haekwell, who had been renting it, had just started to move his own property. But beginning right at the power continuing to the plants and fuse homeowner's box, there are thousands of safety systems built into the delivery of electnc service. For example, Mr. Hoggard said, there are hundreds of power plants in the Western states and all of them are interlocked, so if there should be a failure at one of them, others automatically can supply the missing power and keep the service going Duplicate Systems In the transmission system, which conveys the electricity from the power plant to the service area, there are duplicate transmission substation, duplicate high voltage feed lines and duplicate switching devices that can move power from one such system to another so rapidly that lights will not even flicker. Those transmission substation air blast and oil switi hes are expensive, he noted, but vital to keeping the power flowing In one substation there are usually a number of such switches "One of those oil switches that work so rapidly," Mr Hoggard said, "costs $150,000 " One the power is ready to be distributed to a given area, such as the Salt Lake and southern Davis County area, the safety system continues For example, the dispatcher's office at the company's general office complex, 1407 W North Temple, has the control board for distribution of the power. Ralph B Hodges, Salt Lake division engineer, said that any trouble or service problem is reported there and crew s are dispatched to correct it. He said that at present there are 90 substations in the area. Any difficulty at 27 of those substations is automatically reported and crews can be dispatched, at times even before the first telephone report of power outage is received. He said that within a year, all 90 of the substations in the Salt Lake and south Davis County area will be equipped with the automatic reporting systems. Other districts in the companys system have or will have such systems. Mr. Hoggard said another safety factor is in the underground distribution system used in the downtown Salt Lake City area. He said putting the power lines underground eliminates some of the possible ways in which power can he cut since it reduces or prevents the chance of interruption by wind, lightning, rain, snow or other weather factors. Throughout the area are numerous or vaults underground substations and tunnels which form an interconnecting network under the city. Even there the weather can cause disruptions when heavy rains cause minor flooding In each vault, there are automatic sump pumps which switch on and pump the fluid into the storm sewer system That prevents water-causeshorts from developing in the vaults Spafford Sarah Chipman Spafford, 68, died Dec 14. 19 Born Mav 2, 1911, American Fork, to Ruben B and Adeline Dovie Chipman Married Harold Soaffnrd September 1940 He died November 1968 She was a switchboard operator for Geneva Steel and KBYL for 18 year Survivors sister, Mrs Florence C Glaser, Sad Lake City, several nieces and nephews.

Tad V , Sait L aka City, y By Stan Bow man Tribune Staff Writer Continuity is the life blood of an electric system, and in many cases the very lives of the people served depend on that continuity. And, according to J M. Hoggard, Salt Lake division superintendent, Utah Power & Light Company, everything humanly possible is done to assure the continuity of electnc service. Mr. Hoggard notes that in the present complex lifestyle people have become used to. everything from kidney dialysis machines to the rapidly multiplying number of computors depend on electrical power continuity. Prime Examples He said that computers are prime examples of the need for steady electrical service since they do everything from operating plants and businesses to putting out employee paychecks. "Many computers can t even stand a dip in voltage without Mr Hoggard becoming inoperative. said. In view of that, the power companies have dev eloped many safety devices and systems to prevent power failures Admittedly, he said, all such devices are made by humans and suhjeit to human failure Also, he said it seems at times that everything from Mother Nature to a careless backhoe operator works against the smooth flow of power.

"Drilling costs went up, the cost of well pipe went up, wages . . . weve run into well over $17,000 in cost overruns. antiBut the is surprised at government rebel how cooperative the Department of Energy has been. They dont follow the book right down the line. They use their heads along with some good horse sense, the mayor said. The DOE has sunk $900,000 into the geothermal well, and Nay said the town will need more to lay the pipe. Bob Chapell, with the DOE in Idaho Falls, Idaho, says Monroe will get the money. We went into it with the knowledge thre was a good possibility of overruns," Chapell said. And Roadblocks Then there were ecological roadblocks.
