As you know, the survival of any community depends greatly on its economic level. Without sufficient financial flow into an area, the future appears less than hopeful. Because this fact is recognized by community leaders and our elected government of--. ficials, a program referred to as the "502 Program" has been designed by the federal government to aid qualifying communities to develop industry in their areas. Many of the counties surrounding Summit County are now participating in this program. Summit County also qualifies for support from this program. Briefly the program is designed to protect the com- -, muniiy, that is, to control the type of industry that comes Into the area under the government aid. The people of the community can determine what type of businesses move into their area. This is accomplished by the formation of a "Local Development Company." This development company must contain not less than 25 community members ( one member per household) with no upper limit on its membership. The grotqp sponsors the private businesses that they want in their area by putting up ten of the total money per-ce- nt to be borrowed from the government. We have begun the organization of this Local Development Group in the Coalville area; however, we are soliciting and need membership from all towns in Summit County. At the present time, there Is a steel fabrication business that is trying to establish itself in our area and needs our support. Employment in this industry could be up to 30 employees. A meeting was held September 2 at the Summit County courthouse in Coalville, where we received more Information on the "502 Program" as well as the steel fabrication business. We must be willing to help ourselves in order to get help under this 502 Program." --Officers of the Local Develop. ment Company.

The South Summit Wildcats responded by defeating Wasatch for the first time in 12 years, and looked very good in doing so. Meanwhile the North Summit Braves were walloping Grants-vil- le and showing very line form.
