The building is to be con- - structed on a re plot, south and west of the Brookside School on land owned for many years by the Andrew Porter family. The site origin- - 2 ally comprised eight acres, but in an agreement between the church and the city, approxi- - v mately four acres were ex-- changed for the corner of 1 Memorial Park on which the I new East Seminary has been j built. ' Work has already started on the church site-leveli- and fil-ling in" so that actual con-struction of the building may get underway in the early spring. Plans for the new church building reveal a combination of convenience, spaciousness and usefulness with the simple i beauty of modern architectur-al al lines. The plans were drawn by Arlon L. Van Orden, mem-ber of the Eleventh ward I I bishopric, associated with the I. Fred L. Markham F.A.I.A. IK architects of Provo. The building will comprise W . 25,000 square feet. It will be 278 feet long with no base-ment or upstairs. Provisions are made for 25 teaching spaces.

The recreation (cultural hall) is designed as a regular high school basketball court meas-uring 92 by 58 feet.

The building faces west and will be of brick construction with cast stone trim.

Another Home Entered, More Clothing Taken Utah county sheriff officers are now working on another burglary similar to that of the A. W. Cherrington home which occured at Thanksgiv-ing time, but very few clues are available, it was learned this week. While the owners of Jolley's ranch in the right hand fork of Hobble Creek canyon were at their home in Orem recent-ly, someone entered their ranch home and took a con-siderable amount of mens and womens clothing; also a pair of binoculars but left jewelry and other valuable items. The things taken were simi-lar to those taken from the Cherrington home, entrance was made by a window in much the same manner as that of the Cherrington place and it was evident that a car had carried the stolen items away. Skating Area Provided at Spring Acres Springville boys and girls who got ice-skat- for Christ-mas and those who already had them, need-- not worry about a place to skate thanks to the efforts of the Lions club, cooperating with the Fire Department, the city and Ralph Child, owner of Spring Acre Race Track and the weather. The ground at the track has been flooded and is frozen over affording young people of the town a few hours of winter fun weekends and evenings free of charge. The pond is lighted and a few fire boxes have been plac-ed about for the convenience of the skaters. Quite a crowd of onlookers are also on hand in the evening to watch the near professionals and the tiny tots just learning. J. F. Vingate Has 11 --Year Record At Kiwanis; Other Members Cited ,.
