CITY, UTAH 84115 M tr ft NH Volume 89 Number 40 tr Ml CS) 1 MANTI, UTAH 84642, THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 1975 5 a copy World of Work Comes to Life for Manti Students The World of Work is coming to life for students of the Manti Elementary School. In common with many elementary schools in Utah, units of study concerning how people earn their living are being taught to give students some idea of what the world of work for adults is like. People are coming to school to talk about their occupation and what is required in the way of training to qualify for such positions. The purpose of the program is to give dignity to all occupations and to give students an idea of what is necessary to succeed in adult life. They have found that all occupations have things that are desirable about them and some things that are not so desirable. Astronaut Don Lind found time in his very busy schedule to visit the elementary school, accompanied by his mother. The questions flew fast and thick and ranged from What do you like about your work? to "How do you eat when in space? He explained that he had spent over 3000 hours in a space simulator practicing for every conceivable emergency that might take place. In a typical rocket liftoff there are only four seconds to decide which of two hundred possible things might be wrong with a rocket before the ground command would decide todes-tro- y it. The first ten seconds of the lift-oare the most critical. Lynn Nielson, soil conservation specialist, visited the third and fourth grades to discuss conservation and its importance to our lives. He explained that he enjoyed helping people solve their problems. He has a nice office to work in and is able to be at home in the evenings. Many occupations require a person to travel and be away from home for periods of time. ff Canyon Road Closed During Wet Season 12-Mi- le The road from the le forest boundary to the Beaver Dams snow course has been kept open, maintained and used by Phillips Petroleum Company. This access has been necessary foi the companys gasoil exploration activities. The well has been proven and has since been plugged. Therefore, maintenance by the company has stopped. Because the road has been kept open, frost has been driven deep into the ground. As the weather becomes warmer, the frost turns to moisture resulting in a very soft, muddy road surface. Considerable damage to the roadbed can result if used under these conditions. In order to minimize this damage, and to preserve the gravel surfacing, closure is necessary until the surface dries out. A chain will be placed across the road blocking wheeled vehicle traffic. This chain will be moved up the canyon as conditions permit. Those who snowmobile up this drainage will have to unload their machines below the chain. Road maintenance funds are scarce and every means available must be used to reduce road maintenance costs. Your cooperation during these wet spring months will be appreciated. Sanpete Community Theater Lynn Nielson, soil conservation specialist, explains the importance ot conserving our resources to third and fourth grade students. Alan Nell and Leslie McArthur along with their teachers, Lillian Fox and LaRue Jennings were in trigued with the details of conservation and relationship it has with all our lives.
