Six stitches were required to close the wound. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Kirk. Tracy and four of his friends made the rocket using tin cant and a small fire cracker. The fire cracker plus numerous others, were evidently bootlegged into Pleasant Grove from Wyoming or Nevada. Police have been notified and are making an investigation, Which it is hoped will lead to the apprehension of the adults who are illegally bringing fire crack-' ers into Utah. s Parents also should be alerted to the fact that fire crackers, even small ones, are lethal weapons weap-ons and can cause serious injury or even death.

The city now has one well and the water from Dry Creek Canyon, which was Improved Im-proved this summer to conform to state specifications.

Office Gives Facts About Utah County Economics Employment in Utah County totaled 32,440 In Aug. 1962, down 45 from July, according to LeRue E. Thurston, manager of the Employment Em-ployment Office. This is due to a drop in "between season" agricultural agri-cultural employment Mr. Thurston Thurs-ton said. On the other hand, non-agricultural employment and salaried employment increased 250 over last month and slightly above the year ago figure. This has been due to employment in new motels and additional school non-teaching employees. i Unemployment did not change significantly from July 1962 but : is. 250 or 11 per cent below a c year, ago." Evaa though -this an A improvement it does not compare com-pare favorably with the state average av-erage of 4 per cent or the nation- , al average of 5. Most county indicators still show that the local economy is on the upswing. Compared to 1961 building permits are up 959 per cent; over-all sales, up 5.3 per cent and demand bank deposits, up 6.1 per cent The only minus sign is in postal receipts, which are down 1.2 per cent Cutfook for September Employment Is expected to rise significantly in September. The increasse should stem from seasonal seas-onal requirements in agriculture. There should also be worker additions ad-ditions in local government. In schools, cafeterias, and custodial services. To a limited degree, these additions ad-ditions will be offset by outbacks in outdoor activities and recreational recrea-tional facilities, Mr. Thurston predicted. pre-dicted. In Pleasant Grove postal receipts re-ceipts for July were down 3505.82 and building permits totaled $9,200 for 3 permits issued during July. , . Benefit Showdeo Planned inP.G.
