' George Bird, left, cashier at the Springville Banking Co., had a rather unusual deposit made at the bank Tuesday, when Wilford .Mellor, 93 Buckley Ave., ""right, came in with a five gallon jar of pennies he and his fam-ily had saved over the past six years. The pennies amounted to $200. Hobbies are not new to Mr. Mellor, who also has one of the most remarkable and attractive collections of rocks at his home. This hobby has oc-cupied some of his spare time for many years, the rocks far exceeding in number and perhaps in value that of the penny coK lection, Seniors named for parts at graduation Chosen on the basis of scho-lastic standing, leadership and activity, nine senior students are listed to take special part in the commencement exercis-es to be held May 25 in the Springville Stake House, it was announced today by Mrs. Margaret Pehrson, senior class advisor.

City police believe mystery man' may have left areo The mystery man of the mountain has mostly disap-peared, according to latest re- - ports from the Springville po-lice office, but the office is still being beseiged with calls from people who see him in, all parts of town and some-times at the same time, act-ing Chief Howard Allan said Wednesday. However Officer Allan is cautioning townspeople to keep their doors and windows lock-ed and not to become hyster-ical by the many unfounded stories being circulated about town. The police have had no re-ports of anyone breaking into homes or places of business since Friday night and they are of the opinion the in-truder who entered several places last week taking petty cash and food in most instan-ces, has left town. Retain bag A sleeping bag, believed to be that of the mystery man, is still at the police station, hav-ing been picked up in a tree near the foothills at 1300 East Friday evening after a chase with a suspicious acting man who fled up the mountain and eluded the officers.

She (Continued on Page 2 Col. 6) Cify vows to destroy stray dogs Springville city is determined to do away with unwanted vi-cious or roaming dogs about town, it was indicated at the council meeting Monday even-ing. Following a demonstration of a dart gun used by the dog catcher in Orem, the city de-cided to purchase the item. The gun will render the animal un-conscious for ten minutes and thus enable the officer to catch the dog. A delegation of citizens at-tended the meeting to report a vicious dog in their neighbor hood and the police officers are besieged daily with calls on stray dogs, it was reported. The city council approved a wage of $50 per month for the city dog catcher plus one-ha- lf of the license money collected, one half of the pound fees and $1 for each dog destroyed. LaMar Miner, president of the Chamber of Commerce dis-cussed with the Council propos-als for off-stre- et parking. The Council in other business, approved calling for bids for a new police car and pledged sup port to Greater Utah Valley Postmaster Bliss Packard asked the city to furnish speci-fications for bridging the gutter south of the postoffice, the in-stallation to be by the govern-ment. H. M. Weight was asked to furnish a performance bond or cash in the bank to guarantee installation of improvements in his subdivision. No action waa taken by the city on a request by a represen-tative from a collecting agency, to collect delinquent accounts. Firemen make screens for emergency use Realizing the extreme dan-ger from the high waters of Hobble Creek the Springville Volunteer Fire Dept. under su-pervision of Chief Reed Ave-ret- t, with full cooperation of Mayor Paul Haymond and the city qouncil, have built wire screens which can be used in an emergency. The screens are constructed of wire netting with metal poles and can " be stretched across the creek. A rope is on both sides of the screen and in case of emergency, it would take but a very short time to pick up the rope and pull the screen across the waters. According to a report by Alma Fullmer, publicity direc-tor for the Fire department, the men have been trying out the screens to determine how long it would take for an ob-ject to float in the swift wa-ter from one point to another. Four dummies have been used in the tests and three of the four were caught by the screens and the other lodged in debris. It took just 22 minutes for the dummy to travel from Brookside to the lower tracks and only five minutes from Main street to the tracks. Mr. Fullmer said that the screens thus far have proved very efficient and seemed to be the answer to locating ob-jects before they leave the creek waters. Two screens have already been installed. A warning has been issued by Chief Averett to children to keep away from the creek banks. He notes that the wa-ter is swift and the banks are soft and tragedy could result from children playing on the banks and bridges. Parents and teachers are asked to warn children, and all citizens are advised to watch at all points where the wa-ter is high, to avoid accidents Hobble Creek has claimed the lives of too manv younf-peopl-the chief points out and almost every accident could have been avoided. hhs rescue torist in tiday accident ' Gavin, 57, 996 South 600 . is convalescing from ai ; 6! y injured left arm and bruises and cuts sustain-JSlie- n his truck went out of 1, overturned and pin-ijji- m in the wreckage. accident occured Sunday ., p.m., six miles up Hobble . canyon, when the truck to make a curve coming J) the canyon, hit a bank urned over.

Map!eton City fathers make delinquent rule All deliquent water accounts in Mapleton must be paid on or before May 1, or the culin-ary water will be disconnect-ed, it was decided at a regular meeting of the mayor and city council Monday evening. The officials also decided to resurface and enlarge the present city tennis courts and Councilman Merrill Halverson was asked to contact cement workers for bids. Jim Whiting was appointed caretaker at the City Park during the Council meeting. Howard Thorpe of Spring-ville presented plans at the meeting for a proposed home and business which he hopes to build in an area between Springville and Mapleton on Mapleton property. He asked for water to be extended to the site and a building permit. The proposition was turned over to the planning commis-sion who will make a report later.
