It is in a dangerous condition and unless fixed an accident acci-dent is liable to occur to a funeral cortege. Now that the free library and reading room is open it is to be hoped that the public wiil show their appreciation ap-preciation of the advantages for getting get-ting good reading matter. One of our compositors made an embarrassing error last week in letting let-ting the type state that it was a girl born to the wife of Fred Smith. The item should have read "a boy." Tuesday night Mrs. Pearce, one of the demi monde on "Crazy Woman's Fork," took 10 grams of morphine with suicidal intent. Dr. LeCompte was called and soon got the woman out of danger. There is a demented woman living liv-ing on (ower Woodside Avenue who is said to be sadly neglected. Her condition should be looked into by the proper authorities and provision made for her proper care. Thursday night a house, with all its contents, belonging to the estate of Chester Snyder, deceased, was burned to the ground. Singular as it was, it was the first time no one slept there since the Snyderville land jumpers bobbed up. The strawberry and ice cream festival given Thursday evening by the ladies at the Congregational church was a complete success in all respects. The attendance was large and everyone seemd to enjoy the good time at hand. The ladies certainly cer-tainly did themselves proud. Fishing parties have been out the past week to East Canyon and Provo river with varying successes. At Lost Creek Issac Walton caught large strings of the speckled beauties. Gus Bass is laid up from the effects ef-fects of handling poison ivy. The rain storm of Tuesday even- by The Women's Athenaeum held their closing meeting June 6 at the Edelweiss. The officers for the next two years were installed by Eleanor Bennett, they are president Dorothy Murnin; first-vice, Louise Snow; secretary-treasurer, Wilma Lar-remore; Lar-remore; and Bea Kummer, historian. Reports were made by members who attended the two conventions con-ventions held since our last meeting and many awards were received by the club. Eleanor Bennett will travel to Grand Rapids, Michigan, June 19 through 23 to attend the General Federation of Womens' Club 97th International In-ternational Convention at the Am-way Am-way Grand Plaza Hotel. She will attend at-tend the convention workshop and bring back a report to the club. The Women's Athenaeum will begin their meetings again in Sept. on the third Tuesday of each month beginning Sept. 20. The Daughters of the Utah Pioneers will hold their meetings on the second Wednesday of the month beginning in Sept. Last week in this column, the statement "The barn which was destroyed is currently being put back in good repair" is wrong. The barn was destroyed and the cemetery was buried under the debris. The cemetery is being cleaned clean-ed up and the headstones are being repaired and the base hopefully for the historical plaque will be built this summer. The plaque was Did you read the Record? Well, this is a name we recognize. Jim Buckman won himself another free lunch this week, by answering coaching trivia. This week's questions are from last week's paper.

Mifee Madson, an employee of the Daly Mine, died early Monday morning at the Connor house of pneumonia. He was about 35 years old. 25 Years Ago The effects of summer were being felt around Summit County in a variety of unpleasant, summer-like incidents. The largest, perhaps, centered around the bursting of the Little Deer Creek Dam. The dam, which was built only a year previous, broke earlier in the week even though it had yet to fill to capacity. It was built to hold 1,400 acre-feet of water. On the Sunday morning it burst it only contained 1,200 acre-feet. One death resulted from the tragedy. Four-year-old Bradley Gale Brown, of Salt Lake City, was killed after being trapped in a tent he spent the night in with his family. The four year old was asleep along with his parents and three brothers when a 50-foot wall of water and debris struck their campsite. Everyone managed to escape with the exception of the little boy. Damage to surrounding areas was extensive and officials were busy to trying to assess the damage and determine the cause of the sudden, unexpected release. The earth-filled dam contained the Duchesne River. When it burst "the wall of water cut a terrific swath of destruction down the Duchesne River, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of damage to forests, installations, farms, ranches and property in Han-na Han-na and Tabiona," wrote the Record. The flood had subsided before hitting hit-ting the town of Duchesne. Bea Kummer okayed by the Daughters of Utah Pioneers Central camp two years ago but the destruction of the barn delayed the work. The clean up has all been volunteered by the Daughters, firemen, Boy Scouts, young men and women's organization organiza-tion of the Kimball IDS ward and some of the former famines. It is truly a historic pioneer cemetery and those buried there are descendants descen-dants of the Chester Snyder family who settled Snyderville in the 1850's. I hope in the historical sites both sites both state and national. It is referred to as ParkWest and few realize where Snyderville is. The old signs used to mention whether or not you were leaving or entering Snyderville. When the mining started in the 1860's and early '70's, there were already 176 people living and farming in Snyderville. There is a lot of history contained in that small settlement. The Snyder family were also a big part of the building of the Golden Pass now known as Parley's Summit. It was once a toll road. Snyders' Grove was a popular gathering place of the miners and their families. Carnivals, picnics and celebrations were held here in the early years. There are many things some of the old-timers can still recall about Snyderville and its beautiful grove. v A ' TOTTTO HTPTUTTrh A wt 1 R Scott Beall Fatback Cliff Bergman Marie Nelson Stephanie Johnson Keith Nelson 1 7 Jere Calmes Dan McKenna Kelly Sims Peggy Collins 18 Kelly Berge Roddy Larson Mel Fletcher Greg Blackbourn needs attention Some of those involved are expecting expec-ting to file suits for damage. In another summer-related incident, inci-dent, Blake W. Hirschi of Salt Lake City, drowned in Echo Reservoir after the boat he was in capsized and he was forced in swim ashore. Apparently, Ap-parently, Hirschi was noted to be a good swimmer. It was believed his death occurred due to cramps. Eight men dressed in diving equipment equip-ment spent three hours attempting to recover the body. Another rescue effort was made in the Uinta mountains after a Brigham City boy wandered away from camp. Bruce Ferrin spent a night in the 9,000-foot elevation range before being found by one of the more than 250 persons on patrol. Bruce apparently had walked over 20 miles through rugged, wooded terrain of the Uintas before being found by Boyd Carpenter, assistant Forest ranger in the Kamas District. 10 Years Ago Park City Ski School Director Rene Farwig gave his notice at the school, saying "I have resigned. It was a mutual agreement, but I don't feel very good about it." Farwig's mutual agreement was instigated with resort management, who's lack of reasoning behind Far-wig's Far-wig's dismissal was "nebulous," according ac-cording to resort president Ray Johnson. "I don't know what was not accomplished ac-complished in the ski school this year it's an intangible thing. Generally, there was nothing specific, but I guess you could just say he didn't fit in with our concept of management," said Johnson. Farwig was the second consecutive con-secutive director to leave the Park City Ski School due to reasons left up to resort management. Stein Eriksen was fired previous to Farwig, Far-wig, because, according to Farwig, he "spent too much time on the dDMtraairies William Patrick Hanley, 62, died June 10, 1988 in an auto accident in Lakewood, Colo.

"I ran two ski areas and have 17 years experience running ski schools, but I also have failed. I don't know what they want," said Farwig, adding the ski area experienced ex-perienced its most profitable season ever under his direction. Farwig, who started his career as a ski racer, was ski school director at Bogus Basin, general manager at Mt. Hood Meadows Ski Corporation, and general manager of Grand Targee resort, before coming to Park City during the 1976-77 ski season. "It's always difficult when a ski school changes managers. I was very impersonal and businesslike in the beginning. I hired back the 120 instructors that had been with the resort, but I made it clear they must prove their quality. Ninety-nine percent per-cent of the full-time instructors passed pass-ed the test. My popularity was only fair with the part-timers because I was trying to grow with a full-time school and eliminate a part-time school," said Farwig. Farwig said he felt he had no allies among the resort managers and claimed he was not given any indication indica-tion during the season that there was a problem. "My objective was to be the best ski school in the country. To do that you need long-range plans and objectives. ob-jectives. The management here has none that I'm aware of. The ski school director needs to be knowledgeable, yet I was not involved involv-ed in their master planning." According to Johnson, the resort was currently looking for another director. "It's not easy for us to change ski school directors any more than it's easy to come here fresh and fit in," Johnson said. "I know I have my foibles, and maybe I'm hard to work for. But I feel whoever we do get will benefit from what we've learned." In August of '78, the resort selected a new fellow from Brighton Ski Resort as their new director. His name? Duane G. Vigos. He stayed with the resort nine years, through the 1986-87 season before he was asked ask-ed to leave. 7) J 338 Dinner 6 a.m. -Midnight 7 days a week Spaghetti Dinner $3.35 Tossed green salad, vegetable. garlic bread.
