ARTIST'S SKETCH Proposed Utah County judicial build-ing as it will appear after its projected 1973 completion. The new complex, to be located east of the present city and county building as shown, will house facilities for jail, court-room, and court offices. A $4 million county bond, which will not raise taxes, is needed to finance the new building. hfoliation Program Underway to Motm Citiieos ieed o( Judicial-Securit- y iuildirsg A full-scal- e information pro-gram is underway throughout Utah County to inform voters of the upcoming $4 million bond election Jan. 18 for a new coun-ty judicialsecurity building. Project Two Thirty-Nin- e lea-ders met last night in the Coun-ty Building to inspect the display and model of the proposed new building, and to receive brochures, mail-ers and posters describing the need for the new complex. v Don Allen, chairman of the Project Two Thirty-Nin- e exec-utive committee, reported that support is growing throughout the county, and urged his com mitteemen to distribute the materials widely "The information we have here should answer most ques--. tions about the need for this building," Allen said. Representatives of Herbert E. McLean Associates, the Pro-v- o firm which is assisting the County on the information phase of the bond issue, offered advice on distributing the ma-terial and made a presentation describing the crowded and outmoded condi-tions in the present County Building and jail facilities. Chairman Allen pointed out that the presentation, and all printed material is available to groups through the follow-ing community chairmen: John Manning, Provo; How-ard Creer, Spanish Fork; Har-vard Hinton, Lehi; Afton Chamberlain, Cedar Valley; Van Burgess, Alpine; Haws Durfey, American Fork; Rob-ert Hilton, Pleasant Grove; Lowell Gillman, Lindon; Le-Gra- Jarman, Orem; Roy Whiting, Mapleton; Calvin Bax-ter, Springville; Carl Patten, Elberta and Jim Durrant, Pay-so- n. According to County Com-missioner Paul A. Thorn, the speakers' presentation is also available to interested organi-zations through the County Commissioners' Office, phone 373-551- Ext. 61. During the meeting Allen an-nounced the county leaders who were named to positions since the last meeting: John Man-ning, chairman in Provo; How-ard Creer, chairman in Span-ish Fork; Kenneth C. McTav-ish- , representing organized lobar in Utah County; and G. mond Dunford, representing Kiwanis Clubs of Utah County. After the meeting the leaders went through the County Build-ing on a self-guide- d tour and saw conditions under which county employees must work. "It is obvious," said Allen, "that there's a real need here. Our tour brought this home to us." Allen stressed that the self-guide- d tour and display are now open to the public in the County Building, First South and University Ave., Provo. 1 PRESCRIPTION TO STRENGTHEN Dr. Doyle Barrett, Nurse LuDean Beebe and Dr. C.

The presentation is spon-sored by both the Pleasant Grove and Timpanogos Stakes. President Leon Walker will preside. Outstanding musical selec-ion- s will be directed by Leslie E.

A girl chorus will Student Growth Up 1820 for Last Fours in Alpine District Area In four years, from October, 1967 to October, 1971, the total student enrollment in the Alpine School District has in-creased 1,820 students. Accord-ing to Superintendent Dan W. Petersen, the district enroll-ment in October, 1967 was 16,405 students and the October 1971 enrollment was 18,225, showing a growth of 1,820 students. Of this total growth over the four year period, studies show that at least 1,228 of the stu-dents came from famities mov-ing into the district while less than 592 children came from normal growth. A study of each one of the four major high school areas shows interesting growth pat-terns. American Fork area school in 1967 had a total of 3,312 students and in 1971 had an enrollment of 3,631 students for an increase of 319 students. Of the 319 student increase the study shows that at least 270 came from families that have moved into the district during the last four years. Lehi area schools increased from 1924 students in October of 1967 to 2,156 in 1971 for an increase of 232 students. Of the 232 student increase, at least 143 students came from families that moved into the district over the four year period. Orem area schools increased over the same period of time from 8,342 to 9,462 for a total student increase of 1,120 stu-dents. Of this increase a mini-mum of 567 students came from families that have moved into the area during the last four years. In the Pleasant Grove area the increase was from 2,827 in 1967 to 2,976 at the present time. This represents a total growth of 149 students. There are at least 239 students who have moved into the area. Without the move - ins, the Pleasant Grove Grove area would have had a loss in stu-dent enrollment through the last four, years. It appears to the district board of education and admin-istrative staff that the major growth problem that faces the district in the next few years is being created by new stu-dents moving into the district rather than from student in-crease from parents now living within the district.

(Continued on page 6) $5.8 Million Appropriated Utah Project Senate and House conferees have agreed to appropriate $5.8 million in supplemental funds for the Central Utah Project, going along with a proposal by a Utah Senator, rather than one approved earlied by the House which was for a reduced of $4.8 million.

Funds appropriated under the supplemental bill for the In-terior Department will be used during the remainder of the 1972 fiscal year, ending next June 30.

One juvenile was referred to the juvenile court, and one ad-ult was arrested on traffic warrants.
