An analysis of consumer preferences for peaches in Salt Lake City, Utah, 1947Larsen, Marion R. 01 May 1948 (has links)
Peaches are the predominant tree fruit in Utah. Preliminary estimates for 1947 indicate a crop of 933,000 bushels valued at $1,679,000, which represents approximately 27 percent of the value of the major fruits grown in Utah and 1.2 percent of the value of all agricultural commodities grown in the state (5:23). It should be noted, however, that the 1947 peach crop was somewhat above normal. The estimated average annual production over the 10-year period 1938 to 1947 was 722,000 bushels.

Relationship Between Opinions Toward Flouridation andSocioeconomic Status of Salt Lake City ResidentsKunz, Craig D. 01 May 1974 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to determine if a relationship exists among opinions toward fluoridation of public water supplies, income, and level of education of the people of Salt Lake City, Utah. There were also two secondary concerns. One was to determine if a relationship exists between opinions toward fluoridation and other controversial social issues. The issues identified for investigations were: (1) the Supreme Court decision on abortion, (2) the Equal Rights Amendment, and (3) capital punishment. The second was to determine the factors on which opinions regarding fluoridation were based.
The results of the data that was collected indicated that the higher the education level of the population the higher the probability of a favorable opinion about fluoridation. The lower the education level of the population the higher the probability of an opinion of opposition to fluoridation. (2) If the subjects yearly income was $20,000 or more there was an increased likelihood of a favorable opinion of fluoridation. If the subjects yearly income was less than $20,000, there was a greater likelihood that the opinions would be in opposition to fluoridation. (3) A majority of the subjects opposed the Supreme Court ruling on abortion and the Equal Rights Amendment. A majority favored reinstatement of capital punishment.
Interpreted, this was felt to reveal a tendency of the subjects to adopt a conservative stand on controversial social issues.

A Study of the Effectiveness of Tune-ups in Controlling Vehicle Emissions in Salt Lake CountyMcIntosh, Howard B. 01 May 1972 (has links)
The Federal Government has placed stringent standards on the manufacturers of automobiles to control vehicle emissions. Few states standards have been set for used vehicles to insure the vehicle continues to meet this standard.
Studies have shown that vehicles that are properly tuned are emitting less harmful pollutants from the exhaust. Additional studies are needed to determine if cars are being adequately turned to meet exhaust emissions.
The study showed 93 per cent of the new 1971 model cars were not meeting the standard established by the Environmental Protection Agency. Eighty-seven per cent of the 1970 model cars and 83 per cent of the used 1971 model cars tested would not meet the same standards.
There was a very low correlation between emission level and the mileage driven since the vehicle was tuned indicating a need for more emphasis on tune-ups and maintenance of automobiles to meet emission standards.

A Comprehensive Study Evaluating Driver Education in the Senior High Schools from Analyses of Driving Records of Salt Lake City High School StudentsBushman, H. Keith 01 May 1954 (has links)
Officials responsible for the control and administration of the traffic on the highways and streets of the nation are aware that good roads, markings, signals, and equipment are necessary. They also realize that the human element involved in the process of operating a vehicle is of the utmost importance. Highways can only be termed good to the extent of the actions of the drivers who use these roads. Studies have been made throughout the nation in different states and cities to determine the results of formal training of drivers. The results of these studies answer many questions and also leave many questions unanswered. A previous study by H. Neil Anderson, in 1952, of the city high schools here in Utah gave some indication of the validity of the hypothesis that students who successfully coplete the driver education course have better performace records than those who did not take the course. Anderson's study, and others in the nation, leaves a challenge to carry out a survey over a longer period of actual driving time for the participants in the Salt Lake City high schools. The purpose of this thesis is to make a comprehensive study of driving records of Salt Lake City high school students who have received training in the driver education program, and those of students who have received no such training. The main objective of this study is to compare the driving records in terms of violations and accidents of the trained drivers against the violations and accidents records of the untrained drivers. This is a comprehensive study evaluating driver education in the senior high schools from analyses of driving records of Salt Lake City high school students.

Pioneer Bands and Orchestras of Salt Lake CityCook, Martha Tingey 01 January 1960 (has links) (PDF)
Early Mormon leaders realized the value of music as an important element in spiritual and recreational activities. Consequently, they encouraged and sponsored musical groups.Three pioneer bands of Salt Lake City—the Nauvoo Brass Band, Nauvoo Legion Martial Band, and Quadrille Band—had originated during the early 1840's in Nauvoo, Illinois, under the sponsorship of Joseph Smith. They performed at all important civic and social occasions.

A Study of the Utah Newspaper War, 1870-1900Heller, Luther L. 01 January 1966 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this investigation has been to write an account of the Utah newspaper war during the final thirty years of the nineteenth century, with emphasis on the events that brought about the establishment of the Salt Lake Tribune, the men who guided its destiny, news and editorial content, as well as its role in the economic, social and political history of Utah.

Publication Design for the Youth of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day SaintsProctor, Peggy H. 01 January 1973 (has links) (PDF)
The problem of this study is to determine what elements are significant in creating a periodical for LDS youth that will be competitive with the attractions of other published materials currently available to youth without sacrificing LDS standards.

Evaluating Effects of Urban Growth Within the Greater Salt Lake Area on Local Meteorological Conditions Using Urban Canopy ModelingSmithson, Corey L. 09 June 2023 (has links) (PDF)
The increasing urbanization of the greater Salt Lake City area (GSLA) has contributed to the development of an urban canopy over this area. This canopy refers to the effects of building profiles, varying land surface properties and anthropogenic heating on local meteorological conditions including temperature, humidity, and wind velocity. Urban Canopy Models (UCMs) can be used to represent these characteristics on a mesoscale without needing to develop models accounting for effects of individual buildings. One method used to classify urban areas are Local Climate Zones (LCZs), which assign different properties to different types of urban areas. A baseline model that represents current GSLA conditions was developed using a series of sensitivity studies, which focused on the effects of mesh resolution, land surface models, UCMs, anthropogenic heating rates and LCZ urban classifications. The baseline model was validated using measured meteorological data. Four urban growth scenarios were compared to this baseline model to evaluate the effects of future growth on local 2-meter air temperatures, 2-meter relative humidity, and 10-meter wind speed. Results showed increased urban density did not affect daytime temperatures within the GSLA, but did significantly increase local nighttime temperatures. The effects of anthropogenic heating rates were most noticeable during early nighttime hours. Also, increased urbanization affected local temperatures, but did not appear to have "downwind" effects on other areas. A User Guide documenting the modeling approach was developed to support additional studies.
