Under a new policy established th's year funds for recreation are allotted by the school district dis-trict on the basis 'of $1.00 per school child in the city. The city must match this amount dollar 'm dollar if it is to receive all the money to which it is entitled. entitl-ed. Reduced Allotment This year it appears, that Orem city will receive only $1500 from the Alpine school district as compared to the $2577 it received re-ceived last year inasmuch as the council on Monday night allotted al-lotted just. $1500 for recreation. Victor C. Anderson, hcera manager and director of the community recreation program, appeared at the council meeting Monday with the request for the city's share of recreation funds. The council told him that only $2200 had been included in the budget for this year $1200 to meet a deficit in the program last year, and $1,000 for this year. Mr Anderson said he presumed pre-sumed the council would provide pro-vide at least $2200 to be used exclusively for this year's program. pro-gram. 450 More Children "If the program 'required $2200 from the city last year, how can it be assumed' that it will not require that much and more money this year to carry an the same program with 450 additional children?" Mr. Anderson And-erson asked. The council, voted to study the matter further and later, in the evening decided on the $1500 allocation. Since the amount of the city's allotment was made known Tuesday, observers have advanced advanc-ed the opinion that the council could provide the amount requested re-quested by calling a hearing on a revised budget should public sentiment so dictate- In a statement today Mr. Anderson An-derson said that if the action of the council stands, practically all activities besides the softball program handicraft, dancing, music, dramatic instruction, etc. must be abandoned. An additional addit-ional $1182 appropriation by the city would be matched by the school board and thus provide a total of $6564 for a well-rounded well-rounded program. If the city allocates no more funds the program pro-gram will have to be operated on a scant budget of $4200 as compared to the $6283 on which it operated last year.
