pick up litter and trash that has accumulated along the roadsides over the winter. This pitch-in to pick up litter could save the state about $300,000 in labor costs that,had been budgeted for spring full-width litter pick-up. Marsh notes. The Lions expect to fill about 30,000 trash bags which will be furnished by state highway and picked up by highway crews the week following the clean-up day. "We’are very grateful indeed for the help that the Lions are pledging to us.” Director Marsh says He explains thatJheir time volunteered will free up some 72,000 working hours that highway crews would have had to devote to the clean-up. That 72.000 hours can now be spent on other equally important activities. Marsh notes, "The spring litter pickup, which we must do prior to the start of the mowing season, comes at a time when we are in the midst of several other things. We are still doing chuckhole patching We, are also getting started in the construction season and need to get bridge deck cleaning completed. The Lions' help will be a real benefit for us at this time.

plus it will be a service to all Hoosiers,” Marsh comments. Lions Clubs representatives say that if this spring cleanup is a success, they would like to plan another one for the fall, following the summer season. They also are looking at the possibility of making the highway cleanup an annual project. Lions Clubbers will be joined in their spring pickup by other service clubs such as the Jaycees and BoyScouts. Director March urges Hoosiers drivers to be on the lookout for the Lions and the other helpers as they walk along the roadsides the 19th.
