Staff Writer, Th statesman ' Electric heating pads are help ing keep the toes of Salem's two cross-river bridges warm these, frosty mornings., -i Ready for what winter may bring in the way ef ice and snow are beating systems on steep ap proaches of the Center and Mar ion Street bridges across the Wil lamette , River, Installed by the State Highway department in con struction and reconstruction proj ects, the unique de-icers didn't get a fair test in the mild 53-54 winter season. - Two widely different systems were used on the two bridges. Mar ion Street uses a low voltage sys tem of-welded galvanized steel wire mesh. Center Street, steep er but less of an ice problem be cause traffic is on the downhill roil, uses a high voltage system of lead-covered resistance cable of the type used to heat green houses. ' L Unusually Steep . Because bridge engineers were faced with the problem of getting the bridge approaches from North Commercial Street up over the Oregon Electric railroad line at Front Street in Just a block dis tance, they are considerably more steep than normal bridges. Bridge engineers visualized, a stalled line of angry motorists every frostly morning unless some extra method of 'defrosting could be put in operation.

Prevent frequent electrical contacts from the transformers located under the bridge to make uniform heat. I Center Street's cable system is installed in runs the length of the grade with spacing closer under wheel tracks and wider near the bridge rails. Bom systems are thermostatically contro lied to switch on when the temperature drops to 36 degrees on the bridge deck. However, the Marion Street de-icer must be manually operated to concentrate heat under certain areas. . r ' Power Failure Unlikely - j Though dependent electrically on line output (no auxiliary power system- is provided), Edgerton considers It highly unlikely that a power failure would freeze the bridge up. The bridges get their power from a Portland General Electric primary circuit which would be out only in the event of a Northwest power grid failure. Engineer Edgerton Isn t worried either about unusual snowfalls like the inch-an-hour for 24 hours pile up back in 1937. "Both de-icers are good any time traffic can get to them," Edgerton asserts. A re currence of the big snow of 1937 would certainly i out-ice the sys tems, Edgerton admits, but the cars and trucks wouldn't be able to get to them anyway. ; ion, Hospital administrators shifted their attention Tuesday to the busi ness end of their duties to close out the two-day meeting of the Oregon Association of Hospitals.
