I4l Herpont, THE Thursday, SUliT COUNTY BEE November 2, NUMBER FORTY FOUR 1967 WEBER WATER ASSESSMENTS ARE CAUSING SOME CONCERN Since the tax notices and water assessments were mailed by the County Treasurers this post week, we have been deluged with calls from persons who are concerned over their water assessments for Weber Basin irrigation water. In some cases, especially in the Davis County area, these charges are somewhat more than double the amount they were last year. The explanation to this is rather simple, but fails to relieve the burden. In most cases the land for which water was contracted was classified by the Bureau of Reclamation, who also determined the price the land could afford to pay for water per acre-foo- t, and how many years it would take the land to be profitably placed into production. A development period was then declared by which the lands were given anywhere from one to ten years to bring them into productivity. During this development period the water userwas obligated to pay only the equivalent of the operation and maintenance costs, plus a di- origlnally signed by tne property owners, spell this out, but are not very well understood. Persons who have purchased land where these contracts are in effect automatically inherit the water and obligations pertinent there to inasmuch as the water goes with the land. We would remind those who feel their assessment is too high, that the operation and malntalnance charges have never been increased since the beginning of the Project. With everything continuing in a spiral it is doubtful that the Weber Basin Water Conservancy Dld-tri- ct can continually hold the line on operation and maintain-anc- e charges in the future. When compar Isons are made with prices charged by other irrigation companies, we ask that you bear in mind the fact that no capital investment is involved by the Weber Basin Water User, as is the case with most water agencies, and if a fair interest return on that investment is calculated, Weber Basin Water costs compare stribution charge. This very favorably. development period is now over Wayne M. Winegar,Manager in most areas, and the full Weber Basin Water contract price for the water is in Conservancy District effect. The charge over and above the operation and maln- tenance and distribution costs 4-- H is repayment to the Federal Government for costs of constructing the Project. The contracts, which were Willard Lad of 17 Is Found Alive After Four Days Lost in Uintahs One of the most intensive searches in Utah history ended successfully Wednesday morning when Richard Green, 17, of Willard, was found alive in the Uinta Mountain wilderness. Hundreds of men with horses. Jeeps, airplanes and on foot took part in the search. Missing since Saturday noon, young Green was expected to recover in the Summit County hospital. search continues in the near Kamas for Richard Green, who has been The mountains missing from a hunting party since about 11 a.m. Saturday. hours alter About 2 searchers traveling 10 feet apart to cover every inch. The boys father, Richard Green of Willard has been assisting in the search. This boy is one of 27 missing hunters who have been reported to the Sheriffs department since the storm hit the area Saturday. Most of these have either returned to camp or been discovered without extensive search. A patrol member stated the area can become confusing to even an oldtimer during a snowstorm and strangers should leave when a storm threatens. combed with the boy left the camp a heavy snow storm blanketed the area with about 8 inches of snow. Steep mountainous terrain, rock slides and ledges increase the difficulty of the search. Members of the Summit County Jeep Patrol have been assisting the Sheriffs department in the search in which no tracks or signs have been discovered to indicate his were-abou- ts. The temperature drops to freexlng each night but warming in the daytime to melt part of the snow.

Sparks flew in the third quarter. Morgans Hal Rees threw the ball the four yards needed, to Mike Clark for their touchdown followed by the extra point. Brent Geary wouldnt let the alumni be dissatisfied, so with Braves hot blood, conviction, and know-hohe caught the Trojans return kick. Charging it 85 yards, he ran it over the goal line for a cheering tribe of thrilled fans. An extra point was kicked for them by Ralph Jones. When the final shot went off, the Trojans stood on the 9 yard line. The Braves sideline stood relieved. It was a game leaving some satisfied-so- me disappointed on both teams. w, Co.

According to Kopp the door was open and we just loaded the stuff up. Investigation proved the wire was stolen from a Utah Power and Light Co. warehouse in Montpelier, Idaho and the brass bushings from the Luudahl Company in Logan. Both buildings had been broken into. At the time of his arrest Kopp was on parole and being rehabilitated by training at a Salt Lake trade school.

These were just a few of the memories which were brought back by the Alumni Assembly Friday morning when former students mingled with todays students to relive their fondest memories to the theme of Remember When? Under the direction ofthe newly formed Alumni Association headed by Dixie (Pace) Shaw, Louise (Wright) Pace, and Becky (Rees) Ovard the celebration got off to a rousing start with a syncopation of the alumni band. This band, which they tell me only practiced twice, consisted of Hatch Richins, Marscelle Williams, Glenn Olson, LaVaun Vernon, Emerson Staples, Bunny Downs, Vern Willoughby, Ralph Garfield, Irene Robinson, Joyce Mitchell, Farrell Wright, Earl Willoughby, Helen Thiriot, Paul Pace, Leon Simister, la Fawcett, Mae Pace, Dixie Shaw, Louise Judd, Barbara Pace, Margie Judd, Lorraine Chappell, ImaJeanCalderwond, Joye Ovard, Luelia Judd and Ar-vil- Anna Dean Dillree.

Lets hojje we see more of them in the future. Special guests were four members of the first graduating class (1915), Hazel (Wright) Calderwood, Cora (Hopkins; Hansen, Affra (Petit) Reese and Dr. Frank J. Reese. Another special guest, Mrs. Judith Beard, long time N. S. music instructor was presented with a lovely corsage. Miss Beard, who is 82 years 'young' was given a standing ovation by the crowd of loving friends and former pupils. Gold and Purple Day The Gold and Purple was seen everywhere as the alumni and students tried to show their pride and loyalty to the aima mater by sporting the school colors. Oldest sweater was that of Eugene Pace, 1925 (he wasn't wearing it). Memories of the earliest years at H.S.H.S. were brought back by nostalgic remembering of the honky tonk piano and prohibition. Norman Richins, leading man of 1926-2- 7 sang 'Bells of the Sea and JoAn (Ovard) Bowen and Elda Pace portrayed some wild flappers. (Joan protested she was NOT of that era but danced because Elda didnt want to do it alone.) The Hit songs of the 20s were sung by Elda Pace and Thelma Brown who also narrated this part of the program. Among them were 'You'd be Surprised,' 'Take Your Girlie to the Movies, Tiano Roll Blues and Ma! Hes Making Eyes at me. With the high school quartet singing 'Those Wonderful Years Leon Simister narrated memories of the 1940s when activities (not only school but students private activities) were curtailed by gas, rubber and other rationing. "Der Fuhrer, sung by Carl Ovard and some officers, (Bill Judd, Doug Ovard and Ren Wilde) brought cheers and laughter from the high spirited audience. Even more hilarious was the strip tease done by Grant (cjueer.le) Geary and accom-paniby the Andrews Sisters (Louse Nichols Simister, Tliea Nichols Royer and Lorraine Bowen Vernon) to the time of Take it Off, Take if off. b u c k, Watching the h u c jitterbug, Congo line and the bunny hop, the parents had some second thoughts about disapproving of the teens dances of today. The bunny hop, by the way, was done tiy the football team and their mothers.

Popular tunes of the 50s were sung by Marie Richins, Dixie Shaw, LaVaun Vernon and Marjorie Judd., and Merrilee Judd. 1965, .the year of athletic triumphs will be long remembered by N. S. alumni as the year when both football and liuskethall teams brought home victory after victory, taking them on to a state win. Ernest Jacklin was also honored as Coach of the Year. The first homecoming queen, Kathryn (Wilde) Stephens was introduced as was Marsha Robinson, queen of 1966.

Two tiny graduates of the class of (pr ihably) 1984 did an improiniitu promenade across the stage and are presently unidentified. Although they werent part of the program it seemed very fitting that these future Braves would make their debut at this time. The final part of the program (Continued on Page Three) |
