He also reinjured a knee and will miss the last two games this year. Vikes Will miss him. Vikings Get Going Again Drop Sp. Fork Last Week by Del Young With playoff hopes gone for the Dons and flickering for the Vikings, last year's Region VI squared off in a battle of team pride last Fri-day and the Vikes came out victors 20-6- . Spanish received the kickoff and moved to a first down with converted Q.B. Phil Hair car-rying the ball. A Don fumble was recovered by Viking Kay Swenson to give the Vikes a chance at offense. A penalty on P.G., the first of several that totaled 95 yards for the game, stopped the drive and a Bruce Murdock punt just rolled into the end zone. The Dons took to the air but Sam Taylor, defensive guard, read a screen pass perfectly, and intercepted, giving the Vik-ings the bc.ll on the Spanish Fork 45. A clipping call on the first play moved the Vikes back to the 49 but a 28-yar- d screen pass, Ron Moosman to Dale Wright, gave P.G. a first down on the 21 where Moosman hit Kaylon Whiteley, who had his man beat in the end zone. John Goodman (see photo) picked the P.A.T. for the 7-- 0 lead with 57 seconds remaining in the first period. Spanish was forced to punt but P.G. fumbled it back. The Dons couldn't move it and lost the ball on downs. Wright ex-ploded for 25 yards but 'Don' defensive back Bob Davis in-tercepted on the next play. P.G.'s Brent Peterson return-ed the favor by intercepting to give P.G. good position on the 45 again. Two penalties against the Vikes, offensive interference and after puting the ball to Spanish, a ''roughing the pass-er" call helped the Dons move to P.G.'s 33 wiVHC Vvilh J8 seconds on the clock, Scott Johnson hit Lynn Hawkins in the end zone.

The battalions staff admin-istrative assistant Lt. Col. L. J. Hoff reported that 7000 square feet of space is being added to the east side of the present building. The addition is scheduled for completion at the end of August in 1975. According to Col. Hoff, the project will double the size of existing headquarters. Added will be a drill hall, kitchen, storage area, rifle range and expanded parking facilities. M. Morris and Son of Ogden are the prime contractors on the construction. Col. Hoff said the kitchen will be located in the south-west corner of the extension as will the food storage area. The drill hall will be in the center and rifle range at the east end of the new addition. Dimensions for the add-o- n are 118 feet by 83 feet. The new area will be slightly larger than the present build-ing. The existing structure built in 1963 measures 6500 square feet. The officer explained that plans for the addition have been underway for two years. Originally a building was also scheduled for Provo but infla-tion has driven prices so high he said that the army finally i decided to only enlarge the Pleasant Grove facility at this time. Col. Hoff said 125 men and women are members of the Pleasant Grove Army Reserve Headquarters. Battalion mem-bers come from Idaho, Utah and one man even flies in from San Francisco for drill once a month. The 259th Petroleum Battal-ion was mobolized in 1969 for participation in the Vietnam War. The unit's resposibility is in the laying of oil pipelines. Col. Hoff observed that in Vietnam the group was called on to repair leaks in the pipe more than anything else. Some leaks were accidental, he said, but many came from Viet Cong and Vietnamese tapping the lines to get oil for their own use and then leaving the pipes to leak when they got through. Governor Rampton VVili Speak at Grovecrest School Governor Calvin L. Rampton will be the featured speaker at a patriotic program at Grove-cre- st School, Pleasant Grove, on November 11, Princiapl Walter Reimschuueel announ-ced this week. The annual patriotic rally will be held to commemorate Veterans Day. The Governor will speak on a patriotic theme, Mr. Reimschussel said. The program is scheduled for 10 a.m., the pricipal reported. The program will also include a flag ceremony and musical numbers. Arrangements for the event are under the direction of fifth grade teachers Greg Presnell, Dale Seely and Edna Haley. Mr. Reimschussel said the public is invited, but seating will be limited, as the 400 school children will receive first priority. Alpine District Teachers Get Salary Increase 74 Classroom teachers with a bachelor's degree in the Alpine School District received a sal-ary schedule increase averag-ing $845 or 9.90 this year. In addition to this general raise most teachers not at the top bracket of the salary scale al-so received an experience in-crement averaging $437. Thus, the total average salary boost for such teachers amounted to $1,282 this year. These facts were brought out in an analysis of teachers sal-aries prepared by the Utah Foundation, the private re-search organization, and is bas-ed on 7974-7- 5 teacher salary schedules collected by the State Board of Education from the local school districts. Certified teachers with a bachelor's degree in the Alpine School District will receive a beginning salary of $7,167 this year with a maximum salary of $11,969 receivd after 11 years of service. Added amounts are paid to teachers with addition-al academic training. The 1974-7- 5 salary for a teacher with a master's degree, for example, is $7,467 at the beginning level, and $13,187 at the maximum step of the salary scale. The report notes that the amounts are for approximately nine months of service during the school year. Foundation analysis observe that a teacher with a bachelor degree who began a teaching career in the Alpine School District during 1969 would have received a starting salary of $5,510. This year, this same teacher with five years' exper- - ience would be reciving a sal-ary of $9,030. Approximately $2,087 of this increase came from boosts in the overall sal-ary schedule with the remain-ing $1,433 coming from annual increments for added teaching experience. In addition to these salary increases, Utah now provides the employee's share of teach-er retirement costs. Formerly this expense was borne by the teacher. This adds another $429 to the take-hom- e pay of a tea-cher with five years experience in the Alpine School District. Thus the total effective salary increase over the five year per-iod is equal to $3,949 or 71.7. Moreover, teachers who earned added college credits during this period might be entitled to an even greater increase. Despite the impressive sal-ary gains made by Utah teach-ers during recent years, salary levels in Utah still lag some behind Mountain States aver-ages, according to the Utah Foundation study. When an ad-justment is made for the spec-ial retirement costs borne by the State, the effective average salary in Utah last year was about 3.1 below the aver-age of the eight Mountain States. By comparison, in 1967-6- 9 the average salary paid to classroom teachers in Utah was about 5.0 below the Mountain States average. " EUGENE HARVEY Elected to key office Eugene Harvey Elected to Key Dealer Position L. Eugene Harvey, Gene Har-vey Chevrolet, Inc., American i-- ork, has been elected to a key office for his area in a nation-wide organization of Chevrolet dealaers. Chosen as representative from his distrct to the Chevro-let Dealer Council, he will ser-ve as spokesman for 13 Chero-le- t dealers in the district at an October meeting of the organi-zation to be held at the zone headquarters in Salt Lake City. The Chevrolet Dealer Coun-cil program was pioneered by Chevrolet in 1937. Operating at local and national levels, the organization helps Chevrolet's 6,000 dealers plan toward mut-ual progress in discussions among themselves and with Chevrolet executives. Among matters discussed are market conditions, business concepts and customer service. The Chevrolet Dealer Council is organized at district, zone, regional and national levels to correspond with Chevrolet's field sales areas. Dealers in the 435 Chevrlet sales districts elect representatives annually to attend the zone meetings. In meetings at the 48 zone cities these representatives elect from their number regional council representatives. At the conclusSoa of meetings held in the nine regional headquarter cities, the regional represent-atives elect members to repre-sent them on the Chevrolet National Dealer Council that meets in Detroit with company executives in Detroit. Sole Winter Driving Con Begin, Check Tires fSow come to a stop once the brakes are applied on clear, dry pave-ment from a speed of 20 miles per hour. On loosely-packe- d snow, the same car needs 60 feet to stop, and on glare ice at 25 degrees fahrenheit, brak-ing distance is 149 feet. ''Reinforced tire chains are still a driver's best winter trac-tion buy," White said. "Chains on the rear wheels can cut a driver's braking distance on snow at 20 miles per hour to 38 feet. On glare ice at 20 miles per hour," he continued, "rear wheel chains can cut braking distance in half. Safe winter driving means getting a grip on the road, and according to Darcie H. White, President, Utah Safety Coun-cil, the grip drivers get de-pends on the tires and traction aids they select for winter use. "Drivers should check their tires to make sure they have plenty of tread for traction on ice and snow," White said, "but even with new tires, braking distances will be great-ly lengthened and a car's ac-celeration capability will be decreased on ice and snow as compared to dry paverncvit." According to White, the average car needs 17 feet to "In addition," White said, "chains give more than three three times better acceleration traction than regular tires in loosely-packe- d snow, and more than six times better acceler-ation than regular tires on glare ice." Snow tires, White said, cut braking distance on snow and improve acceleration on both snow and ice. Studded tires, he said, cut braking distance and increase acceleration substantially on glare ice, but provide no bene-fit on loosely packed snow. ''Studded snow tires on rear wheels and regular studded tire on front wheels make a good combination for safe acceleration, braking and corn-ering on both snow and ice surfaces," White said. Studded tires and snow tires need special care, according to White. He advised motorists to have studs inserted by a tire dealer or garage and steer clear of studding kits. Studs, he added, should only be inserted into new tires since road grit can work into the stud holes of used tires, preventing the studs from seat-ing properly. White said motorists who are remounting studded tires this year should mount them in the same position they were mounted last winter. Tire studs he said wear at an angle, de-pending on the direction the wheel turns. If the direction of the wheel rotation is rever-sed, the studs will rotate in the tire tread in an attempt to correct the angle and may loosen and fall out. Kay L.

Senator Dean Gives Report on Phoning County-Wid- e Senator Ernest Dean reports on the program of acquiring county wide toll free telephone service for Utah County. Senator Dean indicates that while knocking on doors seek-ing to the Senate that many Pleasant Grove resi-dents have inquired as to the progress being made towards securing county wide toll free telephone service. Thus in a statement to the Pleasant Grove Review Senator Dean makes th following Progress Report: The first action approved by the Public Service Commision was to eliminate long distant charge between Pleasant Grove --Lindon and Orem. The tele-phone company agreed to this order and the long distant charges between these subscri-bers has been eliminated. The next action was the Pub-lic- e hearing followed by the Public Service Commission rul-ing that both the North and South ends of the county could call Provo-Ore- And that Orem telephone subscribers could call from Lehi through Payon toll free. This decision was appealed to by the tele-phone company. The next action was when the appeal was heard by the Commission and rejected. Thereby reaffirming their ear-lier decision to grant toll free calling for Orem and Pleasant Grove residents and for Pleas-ant Grove residents to be able to call Provo. The telephone company then appealed this decision to the Supreme Court of the State of Utah. Last month the case was heard before the Supreme Court and the decision has not been rendered as to this date. The decision wnehme da date. The decision when made will conclude the four-yea- r struggle. If approved it will mean that the Pleasant Grove subscribers will be able to call all Provo subscribers without a toll charge. The decision should be forth-comin- g soon according to Senator Dean. Warnick and Sons Cow Wins First Place in Coast Show A three-yea- r old Holstein cow owned by Charles W. Warnick and Sons of Manila has won first place honors in its class at the Western Nation-al Holstein Show in Fresno, California. The prize winning cow sold for $16,000 to the Glen Afton Farms of Ontario, Canada. According to Mr. Warnick the cow will be shown at the Royal Canadian Holstein Show in Canada as well as other shows. Named "Country Home White Eagle Katela," Mr. War-nick- 's cow took first place in her class at the Utah State Fair last month. The win in California will make the cow a nominee for All - American Holstein, Mr. Warnick said. She was one of 100 head of registered Holstein cattle owned by the Warnicks at their dairy farm in Manila. Mr. Warnick began his inter-est in Holstein's forty years ago when he entered 4-- work as a young man. Now it is his prime business, he said. Mr. Warnick said this is the first time an entry from Utah has won a top honor at this show in some years. His cow was one of the ten selected from throughout the state for entrance in the Western Nat-ional Holstein Show. October Named as Immunization Month Nationally October has been designated as Immunization Month. This is a national campaign to in- - crease the immunization lev-els particularly of pre-scho-children. Why is this such a pressing issue? Recent studies have shown a decline in immuniza-tion levels. Perhaps it seems that the diseases we immunize against are now extinct so we are not motivated to see that children are immunized. How-ever especially as the need for immunization is ignored, it be-comes increasingly possible for a child to still be made crippl-ed for life from polio, blind, deaf or retarded from Red measles, sterile from mumps, or be born with a defect from German measles just because a parent did not realize the im-portance of getting the child immunized. People who lived when these diseases were a raging threat see immunization as a life-savin-g miracle of medicine. The apparent disappearance of the diseases is in fact, due to this miracle. Please, says the auth-orities, let's continue to take advantage of it and see that the children receive their im-munizations. The Utah County Health De-partment suggests the follow-ing immunization schedule: DTP (Diptheria, Tetanus, & Whooping Cough): begin after 2 months of age, series, 3 dos-es, one month apart, boosters (Continued on page f'J ) Warnick Speaks On Need for Campaign Reform "The events of the last two years relative to Watergate have the need for campaign and lobbying re-form which will lessen the in-fluence of large special inter-est groups," according to Bob Warnick, Republican candidate for the State Senate from the North end of Utah County. The district encompasses ev-erything from the Point of the Mountain to Center Street in Orem, with the exception of a few voting districts on the west side of Orem. In his third position state-ment to be released to the vot-ers, Mr. Warnick discussed the need to ''require reportig of sources of contributions as well as expenditures in an elec-tion campaign." "An apparent oversight in the 1973 session of the legislature resulted in a removal of requirements for re-porting of campaign expendi-tures by state legislative candi-dates." Mr. Warnick indicated a need to remedy this situation. He also spoke out against public financing and the length of campaigns, along with dis-cussing the need for lobbying reform in the State Leislature.
