Show March9,20ii TIMPANOGOS TIMES , 7 "Cedar" continued from Page 6 bids than they lose for cities where they own the cans." He added that if the city owns the cans, it levels the playing field. Council Member Scott Jackman clarified that that means the city gets lower bids. Kirk, who had missed the previous meeting, asked what the concern had been with opt-o- ut recycling. The mayor ex-plained that he had misread the council's interest in an opt-o- ut program and hadn't included it in the request for proposal (RFP), so the bids onJy listed the costs for an opt-i- n recycling plan. "To their credit and in-tegrity, they've both refused to rebid." (The third bidder, Ace Disposal, had no representative at either meeting.) Jackman asked about having a contract with a ar extension, but the mayor said, "That changes the terms of amortization." Jackman moved to award the bid to Waste Management on a contract with a extension, authorizing the mayor to negotiate opt-o- ut prices. The motion failed. Jackman made the motion again without the con-tract, and City Manager Konrad Hildebrandt questioned whether it's legal to award the bid with conditions that weren't in the RFP. Kirk moved to award the contract as bid to Waste Man-agement, and it passed, but first he said that citizens are saying, 'Wait, why should I give this company my recyclables when they're making a profit off them, and pay them to pick it up?' "I don't have any problem with that," Wright said. "They incur the costs of collection." Kirk replied that he still predicts recycling will eventu-ally be free because it's catching on. Asked about his motion afterward, Kirk said, "I'm not interested in owning the cans. If I were I'd have moved for Al-lied." Being Honest About "Being Earnest" " : A I. 1 . I v A.: Y 'V AAAKm v . r ' j 1 The classics, whether it be in music or drama, stick with us as a community and society because they make generations time after time giggle or feel warm inside and that's what "The Importance of Being Earnest" did. Kathryn Little stated, "'Earnest' is full of satirical humor. Oscar Wilde shows a whole new side to his remark-able writing. So insightful! So Fun! So Witty! He gives us a great excuse to laugh at ourselves. That is what "Earnest" is all about! Who knows, maybe between the chuckles you just might learn something!" The play is being present-ed by PG Players and directed by Kathryn and Howard Lid-di- e. Jeff Thompson plays John Worthing.

Charlie Kristina Fuller plays Cecily Cardew and is an absoulute delight in her role. This is Deborah Flink's fourth show with PG Players, playing Miss Prism. Wilde's play has a lot of . dialogue with an English ac-cent and the players pull it off very well. The comedy in the play was accentuated by their ex-cellent performances, partic-ularly by Dennis Purdy, who plays Rev. Canon Chasuble, D.D., Merriman, and Lane. He was absolutely hilarious. "Earnest" is an enjoyable, fun play for all ages to see. The audience really enjoyed the twists and turns in the plot and was very entertained. The costumes were im-pressive and beautiful. They were period correct for the turn of the century. We highly recommend you attend the upcoming per-formances of this play.

Bert Fuller plays Alger-noi- n Moncrieff. He stated, "There is nothing like being on stage!" Outside of the-ater he is currently learning to read and write Anglo-Saxo- n, which may have helped with his English accent. Dennis Purdie performs as three separate characters during the play, keeping him busy both on and off the stage. Dennis is a long-tim- e per-former with PG Players and again gives an outstanding and comical performance.
