Cemetery Cleanup. . . Mrs. Louise Sherrill. Cemetery Ceme-tery Chairman, announces that Saturday, the 17th. will be cleanup day at the cemetery. Everybody is invited out to help, she needs some good strong manpower to fix up and reset the south fence, which has been mashed down by tumbleweeds blowing against it all year. Also, she is trying to get some trees planted there, and has found where she can obtain silver maples free for the digging, and can get the backhoe from the city a day they are not using it. She is hoping this will be Saturday, so that her planting project can be pretty well finished in one day. Everyone is invited to come out and help, and dinner will be served by Woman's Club to all those participating. Green River Movie. . .

Jack flew with Jim Hurst on Wednesday morning, covering the Western Canyonlands area. Hurst also helped develop the format of the film, and made several helpful suggestions about content. Jack spent some time on Wednesday at the Hastings ranch, where he was hosted for a farm dinner cooked on a coal stove. He was much impressed by the beautiful setting of the Hastings home, and by the wealth of material they have about Green River history. Ken Silliman hosted him Wednesday afternoon, showing him several sites of interest. On Thursday he interviewed Budge Wilcox and several other people, and mapped out the format of the movie. In the evening, he spoke at a Centennial meeting attended by Mr. and Mrs. Ken Silliman. Mrs. Florence Howland. Mrs. Louise Sherrill and me.

We need help in planning, and everyone should get into the act. City Council Meets. . . City Council met in regular session on Thursday with Mayor Hatt in the chair. Architect Boberg was down with plans for the new City-County building, and also for the Outdoor Recreation project on the north end of the City Park land. The City-County building will be built between the road sheds and the Overnighter. and will replace a real eyesore of a swamp with a fine building and grounds. The Outdoor Recreation project across the highway from this site, will encompass a playground, swimming pool and several buildings, includ ing a pavillion which will be moved when there is enough money to erect the Information Center and museum planned for that locality. Probably there will be not further funding of either project until after July I . but it is hoped to get started on the City-County building by fall, as it is badly needed by other groups, as well as the local Highway Patrol, which is based in Moab. considerably out of the way of their patrols. Mrs. Scott Anderson. CIP Chairman for Woman's Club, brought up the project of beautifying the city hall and grounds. She has estimates on the amount of pipe for sprinkler systems, and Mr. Boberg was contacted to plan the planting program, as soon as possible so that some of it can be done this spring. A general cleanup was suggested before Friendship Cruise, and the Mayor agreed that it was a good idea and he would see that it was implemented. Woman' Club. . . Woman's Club met at the Englcman home for their regular meeting, with President Presi-dent Florence Howland in the chair. The program was presented by Mrs. Dorothy Nelson and consisted of a talk and slides by State Park Ranger Ashley Allen.

Mrs. Nelson, Conservation Chairman, was also presented with the pric money for her program in the first six grades of the school which was built on "A Million Trees for a Million People." Louise Sherrill reported that an easement across the road and land for the water line to the Cemetery has been obtained, ob-tained, and the line should be in shortly.

Jim Hurst and I were invited to attend Open House at the Emery County High School at Castle Dale on Friday, the 9th. This was the 50th broadcast the class of Steve Lacy's had prepared and broadcast a program from KOAL. The library was decked with displays of this year's activities activi-ties by Steve's classes, especially es-pecially their trip back to Washington, D.C. which was enjoyed - by eight students, four boys and four girls, this winter. This was an award, I understood, to the top ranking students in the class, and will be a fine incentive to classes in the future. Jim Hurst gave an excellent talk, and thoroughly enjoyed his association with the young people, as he always does, developing a rapport immediately. immedi-ately. Another high light of the afternoon was a visit by Terry Wood who does Horizons on Channel 2 TV. He was most gracious and suggested in his talk to the class, that TV is a fine field to enter, and one not overcrowded at present. It was an inspiration to see what a really dedicated tca- -, ,. , . , , . , cher can do for a group of students; they were poised, at ease and most gracious hosts to their special guests and to the townspeople who attended the Open House.
