Show New Zoning Commission Named By Cifty Council Microfilmong Corp. Pierpont A'cnue Salt Lake City 2. Utah Uni 141 VOLUME 71, No. 25 PAYSON, UTAH THURSDAY, dimming IPooD Operation Noted by Commnitoee The Payson Swimming Pool opened last Wednesday afternoon and has already become one of the most popular activities in Payson for hundreds of youngsters from preschool age to older students. The pool is operated under direction of two competent life guards, Mr. and Mrs Stan Cloward. The pool is opened every day from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday. As soon as classes are organized the Clowards will give instructions in swimming and life saving each morning before the pool is opened to the public. Operation of the pool is conducted by the swimming pool committee with Ralph Daniels as chairman and Eugene Smith and Rosalyn Hillman as members. They direct the activities under the direction of the city council with Keith Jolley, chairman of Cemetery and public property committee. Operation of the pool is not as simple as it may appear. The pool requires 168.000 gallons of water to fill it. The furnace, installed last year, is a gas furnace with 1.000.000 BTU output and heals the water to 84 degrees. The pool is cleaned with a water vacuum and the back flushed once each week to insure clean water for the children and others to swim On JUNE 18, A new zoning commission was appointed Monday night in the regular meeting of the Payson City Council. The zoning commission have been in the process of revising the city ordinance for the past 1959 several months. Appointed to the Fathers Day commis- sion were Dr. Thomas M.

Explains Exceptional Child Program Richard Ilarmer, vice chairman of the Payson Recreation Council, explained the purpose and operation of the exceptional child program to the city council. He asked for permission to have use of the swimming pool for two periods each week for this group of children. He told councilmen that the county had given $2,000 for the operation of the program this year. The $2,000 will barely pay salaries of the two supervisors of the program. The matter of use of the swimming pool was referred to the swimming pool committee, who w'ere present at the meeting. to work out a schedule with Mr. Harmer. one-ho- Payson Couples Honored On Golden Wedding Date hii i t x l , : i lii ' H r 1 -- 1! in.

The water is continually circulated from the pool through a battery of four filters. The water comes from the pool through an eight inch pipe, at a point just ahead of the filters liquid cholorine is mixed in the water to eliminate any impurities. The filters which the water then goes through has a two foot layer of sand, two foot layer of gravel and then a layer of larger rocks. The water must run through a screen before leaving the filters on its return trip to the pool. After the water has left the filters, some of it is sent through the furnace and heated to a temperature of 140 degrees and then mixed again with the other water that by passed the furnace. The water then reenters the pool along both sides of the pool in pipes with openings every 10 feet. A big five horse power motor and pump runs continually night and day to make the water circulate from the pool through the filters, and1 furnace and back again. A comefplete change of water is fected every three days. The scum gutters to catch the water splashed over the sides of the pool returns the water through the filters and back into the pool. Only 10,000 to 20,000 gallons of water is used by the operation of the pool each week after it has once been filled. The loss of water is due mostly to the cleaning of the pool and back flushing of the filters. ' The water lost for the cleaning process is run into the irrigation ditch West of the pool.
