Show City Water Increased By Tunnel Project; Art Contribution Made I Under the direction of the city waterworks department of which Eastham Clegg is chairman, a project is underway near San-ford's San-ford's ranch whereby the culinary water supply has been increased approximately one tenth of a second sec-ond foot, according to a report made at the council meeting early this week. Two tunnels, one about 50 feet and another about 35 feet have been dug to increase the supply. When this work is completed which is expected to be the latter part of the month, it is planned to make application for an extension to the project for the purpose of increasing the water flow from the old Knold tunnel. The work is being done under the WPA. Two shifts are being run with employment of about eight men each. The receipt of two recent contributions con-tributions to the high school art building project was also reported at the council meeting. One of $100 was received from Lang and Company, a machine concern of Salt Lake City, and another also for $100 was received from the Utah-Idaho Sugar company. City officials are anxious to check in all contributions so that an estimate esti-mate of the exact amount needed may be made. The building is now 30 percent completed and every effort is being made to rush the project to completion for the opening of the fifteenth annual national art exhibit in April. Arrangements are also being made to purchase a new truck for the city waterworks department, depart-ment, it was stated following the council meeting. . |
