Major Events Listed as the Year 1957 Fades Away into History As 1957 passes out of ex-istence, it will go down as an eventful year for most Spring-ville citizens. To many, it was a happy year and to others "it was a sad one. Looking over the events which transpired and were re- - corded locally by the Spring-ville Herald, it was noted that the year compared in most in-stances with those of the past, the regular events taking place quite on schedule. It was a city election year with a new mayor and two new city councilmen being named to their respective posi-tions both in Springville and at Mapleton. Two new members, Marie Whiting and Omar Han-sen were also named to the Library board. The new Springville Junior high school was dedicated dur-ing the year with Governor of the State, George Dewey Clyde giving the main address and plans were also drawn for a new elementary grade school. In this same catagory also, Springville helped to pass a million dollar Nebo school dist-rict bond issue to build more schools. Construction was started on a big road project near the un-derpass on the south limits of Springville, the contract being let to Thorn Construction Co. of this city. Springville contractors re-ceived a good share of building contracts during the year, the W. W. Clyde concern alone re-ceiving in the neighborhood of four million dollars worth. More than fifty Springville people passed away during the year, as recorded by the Springville Herald in addition to quite a number of former residents brought here for ser-vices and burial. It was a sad year for sev-eral families and a tragic one for the town with the loss of three young people in acci-dents and sudden death. A road construction accident in Aug-ust proved fatal to John Han-son, 20, son of Mr. and Mrs. Golden Hanson, who died in September, while Linda Baker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Baker lost her life in an accident in Provo canyon. Only a short time later, her friend, Colleen Collett, daugh-ter of Mr. and Mrs. John Col-lett, died suddenly of pneu-monia and was listed as the first flu fatality of the year in Utah county. A tiny tot, Dan E. Snow, five-year-o- ld son of Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Snow, lost his life in a traffic accident in front of his home on South Main St.; Wayne Lamar Huff, 35, was fatally injured in an accident at Ironton in October; Little Diana Ruth Roman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Verl Roman lost her life in a carbon mon-oxide accident and an elderly man, Enock Holt, 76, died of injuries received in an auto-mobile accident. A Springville man, Dale M. Diamond was honored as the outstanding engineer at the University of Utah; Bud Schardine was the Distinguish-ed Service Award for 1957; Craig Smith was named gover-nor of Boys State, the first such honor which has come to Springville. Six Scouts from Springville and Mapleton went on the na-tional camporee to Valley Forge ; Springville's oldest twins and possibly the oldest (Continued on Page 2, Col. 7) Services Held Sunday for Margaret Patrick Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at the graveside in the Evergreen cemetery, for Margaret Pat-rick, 69, who died Thursday at a Provo Hospital, after a long illness. Bishop Glenn A. Tipton of the Fourth ward was in charge of the services. Burial was di-rected by Wheeler Mortuary. Bom in Springville, Jan. 2, 1888, she was a daughter of John and Margaret Hulet Pat-rick. Survivors include a brother, John Patrick of Springville ; a sister, Mrs. George Miner of Magna; a half-siste- r, Mrs. Ro-bert Burlingame, Milton, Oreg. and a half-brothe- r, Glen F. Reid of Martinez, Calif. Home on Leave Lt. and Mrs. Allan Wingate and their three children left this week for Fort Benning, Ga. where Lt. Wingate is sta-tioned. He has been home on a 20-da- y leave visiting his par-ents, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Win-gate and his wife's parents, Mr. and Mrs.' G. T. Braun. Mrs. Wingate and children have been staying in Spring-ville for the past few months. Mapfefon Names Winners of Holiday Lighting Dr. P. K. Edmunds was awarded first place and Jack Canto, second in the Mapleton Jaycee sponsored home-lightin- g contest for the holidays accord-ing to report from club chair-men. The response of the citizens in the contest was most grati-fying, with some beautiful out-side decorations adding to the holiday spirit of the entire town. , Especially commendable were those at the Cal Johnson home; the S. Lavelle Bird home, Harry Andreason, Wayne Holley, Bob Sayer and Dallas Holley homes. The first place winner light-ed their home as well as the car-po- rt and patio with a beautiful arrangement of vari-colore- d lights while the second place award winner had a nylon flocked Christmas tree standing in a large picture window encircled with a wreath of lighted green pine bought and a lighted Ever-green tree on the lawn. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hunt-ington have returned home from a delightful ten days spent in California with their daughter and son-in-la- Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Kunkle (Lu-ell- a Huntington) and two child-ren at Canogo Park, near Los Angeles. The Kunkles re-- cently moved to California from Oakridge, Term. Mr. Kunkle is employed in govern- - ment work. While on the coast the Huntington's in company with the Kunkles toured Dis- - neyland, Knotts Berry Farm, the LDS Temple and other points of interest. ton Furnace Being Repaired; ) Men to Be Affected in Layoff ie No. 2 Blast Furnace at Ironton Plant will be shut i on January 4, to perform ed repair work, officials meed this week. It is an-- t ated that the duration of f repair work will be ap-- m (".aately sixty days. Related auxiliary and service opera-tions at Ironton will be lower-ed to coincide with the opera-tion of No. 1 Blast Furnace. Operating at this level will require the layoff of approxi-mately 200 employees. How-ever, some of these employees will be utilized to perform the repair work on No. 2 Blast Furnace. The necessary lay-offs will, of course, be handled in accordance with existing seniority practices. Approxima-tely two thirds of those who will be laid off will be eligible to draw supplemental Unem-ployment Benefits. However, it is suggested by officials that all employees who are laid off contact the personnel office at Geneva Plant to determine their eligibility and process pa-pers for participation. A Message From the Mayor . . . Immediately upon taking over his new office as mayor of Springville, J. Emmett Bird Wednesday extended best wish-es for a prosperous and fruit-fu- ll 1958 to the citizens of Springville stating that: "any success in making the city a better place in which to live and rear our children in the most favorable environment, can be accomplished only by mutual understanding and co-operative effort on the part of all citizens in solving the problems ahead." Mayor Bird further issued an invitation to all citizens to at-tend council meeting at 7:30 p.m., on the first and third Monday of each month, as a means of helping to understand and solve the city problems. Mayor Bird voiced his in-tentions to set aside a day on which townspeople will be in-vited to make a tour of the city's fine facilities and the utilities which have been in-stalled for the future growth of Springville, including the million-dolla- r sewage disposal plant, the water and power in- - stallations and other fine fa- - cilities.

About 4:45 a.m. Tuesday a Spanish Fork officer alerted the Springville patrolman about a car. Officer Art Child, first on the scene, stopped the car and pulled the driver out. The other man in the car had a loaded gun under his leg, the officers said. Patrolman Zabriskie came to the other side of the car and siezed the weapon. An investigation of the auto turned up a cache of neck-laces, about 18 watches, dyna-mite, loose money and a full set of burglar tools, Officer Child said. The men were to be trans-ferred to Utah County jail la-ter Tuesday for further ques-tioning. No complaint has been filed pending investigation.

Contract for the ultra-moder- n building was let last August on a bid of $44,444. Arrangements for dedication of the new building have not as yet been made. New LDS Ninth Grade Seminary Building Finished Ninth graders at the Junior high school taking LDS Semin-ary, will have a new building to meet in, when they return to school today as the new Springville East Seminary building is now completed. Although dedication of the building has not been arrang-ed as yet, the architect has made final inspection and it has been accepted and made ready for occupancy. Contracted by Steve Miller early in August, on a bid of $44,444, the building is of brick construction with rock trim on the front and large glass windows facing west. It is on the southeast corner of the Memorial Park, just west of the new Junior high school, making it easily accessible to students taking Seminary clas-ses. Designed on plain yet very modern lines, the building pro-vides ample space for the five Seminary classes in which Ninth grade students only will be enrolled. The classes, on the Old Testament have been held since the opening of school in September in one of the extra class rooms in the Junior high school. In addition to using the building for Seminary instruc-tion and Seminary office space for which it was primarily constructed, it will also be available for board meetings and until the new Kolob Stake and Sixth-Eleven- th ward cha-pel is constructed, the two ward bishops will have office space in the building. Hal Taylor, Seminary in-structor for the Ninth grade students, will be principal and the only instructor at the pre-sent time at the new building. i ds column will have a good fse for not being what it Id this week as it is being ten as though it were all when actually it hasn't happened (New Years, is).
