Show Concrete Lining Of Y,eber-Prbvo Canal to Start SALT LAKE CITY, .fun 20 U.R Now that Deer Creek reservoir res-ervoir contains more than a two-years' two-years' storage supply and the high water run-off on the Weber river has subsided, diversion of Weber river water through the Weber-Provo diversion canal will be discontinued within the next few days and final concrete lining of the canal will be started, according ac-cording to E. O. Larson, region 4 director. Scheduled for completion by November 1. 1946, placing of the concrete lining will wind up construction work on the canal, with the exception of clay lining some sections, Mr. Larson said. Preliminary work is already started in preparation for the concrete placing, and actual construction con-struction is expected to-be underway un-derway in the near future. Some 4.400 feet of the nine-mile long canal will be lined, including 600 feet in the vicinity of Kamas and 3,800 feet at the lower end of the canal before it joins with the Provo river. Concrete was placed two years ago on an additional 1.800 feet of the canpl in th vi-rinity vi-rinity of Kamas and the Fitzgerald Fitz-gerald drop. Deer Creek "reservoir, filled to its 150.000 acre-foot capacity, spilled recently for the first time in its five years of use. It is expected to be still better than half full when the irrigation season sea-son closes this summer and will carry the remaining storage over into the next year, as the main units of the Provo river project distribution system, including the Salt Lake aqueduct and the Provo Pro-vo reservoir canal, are not yet completed. On completion, the project will provide supplemental irrigation for 95,000 acres of fertile lands now inadequately served, and, in addition will provide domestic and industrial water supplies for Salt Lake City, Provo, and other urban areas.

MEMIEt Mother Regains Custody of Child In Court Ruling Lillian Mae Briggs today h.-nl regained the custody of her nin-year-old daughter, following a Fourth district court decision which ordered the father. George S. Briggs of Springvillc. to surrender sur-render the child under the terms of a Texas divorce decree binding bind-ing the parents. Sherman Chris-tenson, Chris-tenson, counsel for" Mr. Briggs. said his client will appeal the case to the state supreme court. The mother recently filed a petition pe-tition of habeas corpus to recover re-cover the child. claiming the father had violated provisions of the Texas decree by removing the child from Texas without her knowledge and consent. The Texas decree awarded the child nine months to the mother and thre months to the father for each year. District Judge W. Stanley Dun-ford Dun-ford ruled the Texas decree was still binding and ordered the child restored to the mother. The defense counsel sought a ruling from the court to allow the child to remain with its father during dur-ing the appeal to the state supreme su-preme court. Hugh Vern Went, counsel for the mother, immediately immedi-ately objected and the court ruled the child would go to the mother, but the latter must put up a property security 't insure its return to Utah if the stiff supreme su-preme court should so order.
