There are fish in Strawberry. Straw-berry. We were about two weeks early, the water is rather riley, and the fish have not started to really run yet, but we saw some really big ones jumping, jump-ing, and a few net fulls being taken from the traps, that would make anyone take up the sport of angling. We urge parents who want to see a sight well worth looking at to gatner up the kids and go to Strawberry in about sevent to 14 days from now. The kids and parents alike will get a big kick out of this trip. For those who have never seen the fish being stripped or running, should go to the store in Strawberry Valley, turn So. until then cross the bridge about mile, then turn in the first gate to your left again. Drive your car right to the edge of the river. The State Fish and Game people are glad to have you come out and see what is going on BELIEVE IT OR NOT! An Orem resident dropped in to tell us he thought he was seeing see-ing things, so to speak, as he had just witnessed a bus getting a ticket in South Orem. He complimented us on the recent article, in which we declared that school zone speed limits and 40 mile zones, should read the same to bus drivers, truck drivers, and all types of vehicle operators. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS One resident points out that the water and ditch people should be held accountable when ditches are not kept cleaned clean-ed and more water is turned into in-to them than they can hold. SCHOOL BUSES It is also pointed out that our safety people and officers should get the book out and check the number of kids our school buses are hauling, and how many they are surposed to haul at one time in each bus. We have noticed at times kids so thick in these vehicles you could not even see the driver. We marvel how the men driving these buses go year after year hauling a bunch of yelling kids without having an accident. The community has been more than fortunate in this respect and this week we want to give these drivers a pat on the back for a job well done.
