Representatives of the Riding club were also present. ' The delegation asked the council to establish a policy calling call-ing for the eventual removal of the arena and for a pro-gram pro-gram which would eventually see the entire 35 acres planted, landscaped and equipped with tennis courts and other suitable suit-able recreation facilities. Requests for the removal of the arena were resisted by Orem Riding club representatives. They declared that Oremj community ana - OREM STAKE OUTING, ENJOYED BY 200 Approximately 200 people at tended the Orem stake outing held at Wolf Creek on Monday, according to President Walter R.

Steel Nets $69 Million Last Quarter Geneva Steel s parent comp any united fctates Steel, re ported' Tuesday it earned $69 861,496 in the second quarter of 1950, a total exceeded only once before in history. The net income, equal to $2.44 a share on the common stock, was the highest since earnings of $90,811,588 in the final three months of 1916. Directors of the corporation declared a common dividend of 65 cents per share, the same as paid in preceding quarters this year. Irving S. Olds, chairman, told a news conference the directors felt there was no particular need to change the dividend rate at this time In view of the serious international situation. He declared military orders received to date are negligible Operations during the quarter averaged 101-2 percent of rated capacity, and shipments of steel products reached a record 5,950,606 net tons, far exceeding the previous high of 5,48i,zio tins in the first quarter of 19- 49. The Case of the Fugitive Boundary Line; Or, How to Stretch a Water Line Annexation of 24 acre of land by Orem City was approved by in city council at a meeting held Wednetday nlgM u result of a promise and miscalculation. The promise was made by Couneilmen Philo T. Edwards and Ray E. Loveleu. heading the city water department, to Gail Harris who bad requested the extension of he city water line west on 20th North to the site of a home he was building. The granting of the water line extension, normally a routine matter, wmi approved by the water department, but when the time came to do the work it was discorered thai Mr. Harris' homesile lay outside the city limits: in the unincorporated area of the county. The best solution to the problem seemed to be for Mr. Harris Har-ris and two other property owners adjacent lo his land to agree to be annexed by Orem City. This action would straighten straight-en out the boundriei of the city considerably and enable the city to fulfill its commitment. So now City Attorney H. Vern Wentx is preparing the necessary nec-essary legal papers and and effort is being made to secure the necessary signatures to complete the annexation. And all because the city limits xigged when they should have sagged. was a rural that the arena served a large number of horsemen. They pointed out that the Riding club had invested thousands of dollars, doll-ars, not only in the arena proper prop-er but in planting and landscaping land-scaping the park. Property Devaluated Objections raised by the resident res-ident delegation included the claim that the arena wa depressing de-pressing land values in the area, and that the dust and odors from the arena, especially dur ing rodeo time, made the entire area difficult to tolerate. Lease Renewed Mayor J. W- Gillman pointed out that the council has given the Orem Riding Club a lease on the area through next year, and asked the Riding club group to discuss the matter at one of their meetings. He declared that he did not want to force any action. Restricted Area Allan D. Johnson, spokesman for the delegation, declared, "We who live around the city park find the activities of the rodeo offensive in a residential area. First North Street Is a restricted re-stricted area in that no animals are permitted to be kept by homeowners here. However immediately adjacent to the street at rodeo time livestock is kept for several days," Supporting the assertion that the presence of the rodeo stock ade resulted in property deval uation- Mr. Johnson cited the instance in which the Equitable Life Insurance company recently recent-ly reduced by $2000 the amount it would loan on property ad jacent to the arena because of the arena- Riding club members at the council meeting, when asked if the club contemplated the con tinued development of the rodeo grounds, declared that they could not speak for the club as a whole regarding the matter. Agreement not Fulfilled Mayor Gillman stated that he was sympathetic with all wholesome whole-some forms of recreation, in cluding riding club activities He also noted the fact that the riding club had not fulfilled its agreement to paint the .odeo structures to the satisfacion of the council. They had, he said, planted trees in the park and were making efforts to beautify it. Permancy Discussed The permancy of the rodeo arena in its presen t location came in for considerable discus sion, with members of the delegation dele-gation expressing the view that the more money invested in the rodeo facilities the more difficult diffi-cult it will become to remove them. Ray Hawkins, vice president of the riding club, declared that none or the facilities are con structed so as to be permanent. He also reminded the council and delegation that the arena and seating facilities are available avail-able to any other group in the city. "Not Good Planning" - Mr. Johnson opined that it is not good city planning to allow this sort of development to continue con-tinue in Orem's city park when the trend is toward an urban community. The discussion ended with the statement by Mayor Gillman that it had been well to talk over, the matter amicably and that the points brought out by all partfes were a step in the right direction. Ultimate Removal Ok'd A council discussion following follow-ing the departure of the citizens' group and the riding club members mem-bers resulted in some disagreement disagree-ment as to how soon the riding club should be required to move the arena. All, however, were in accord with the idea that the arena should not be regarded as a permanent installation and Schools to Start September 7-8 In Alpine District Alpine district elementary schools will begin classwork on Thursday, Sept. 7, and high school classwork will get underway under-way on Friday, Sept. 8, according accord-ing to the calendar of activitiei released this week from the office off-ice of D.
