Utah County Jeep pafro! lends hand of mercy to those in need A one o'clock phone call at the Sheriff's office from a worried and distraught parent informs the office that his son has not returned from a trip into the foothills with friends. Quickly a number of telephone calls are made and within a very short time units from the Utah County Sheriff's Jeep Patrol are speeding to the rescue. It may be only minutes later or even a day later when the son is spotted, taken from a ledge or ravine into which he has fallen and injured himself so that he is not able to get out. This is only one of hundreds of situations that might confront this stalwart group of men which form the Jeep Patrol, 30 of them, who have an expensive hobby of helping people by donating their own time and equipment to helping people in trouble. Each of the volunteers furnishes fur-nishes his own radio-equipped jeep and all of his equipment. The men receive no pay for their efforts, yet they must always be ready vto leave on a moment's notice when their help is needed. A recent example of this was when the patrol was called out to Barbara Clyde and Mrs. Leonard James; Barbara Clyde, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Blaine P. Clyde; and Jessie Johnson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. LaRell Johnson, all close friends, will be a among the approximately 35 members of the "Europe on a Shoestring" tour under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Wynder of A festive atmoshphere will broadcasting from downtown prevail as a huge banner over Wjn feature music and in-Main in-Main Street proclaims the an- terviews with merchants and nual sidewalk sale and direct bargain hunters. help in the rescue work of a local man, Glenn Averett Wilson, who was a victim of drowning. Last year the Jeep Patrol was called out on 126 operations which ranged from hunting missing persons and rescuing injured people to hunting down criminals. This year they've assisted in recovering drowning victims, hunting missing persons per-sons and other tasks. Every member has his own vocation which he works at but about 16 to 22 units can be assembled together into a working force within a matter of minutes regardless of the hour of day or night. Many of the men in the jeep patrol are experts at different phases of search and rescue proceedings. Six of the men are experienced skin divers and own and operate their own skin diving equipment. Several of the men have been trained in mountain climbing and nearly all of the members have passed rigorous first-aid courses. The jeep patrol has two ski-mobiles, ski-mobiles, and the members raised enough money on a fund-raising fund-raising project to buy a fully Jessie Johnson Provo. The travelers will visit in Spain, France, Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Scotland and England traveling by plane, train, bus and boat.

Peterson buildings on South Main presently occupied by The Rusty Nail, Gary's Barber Shop, and the vacant building north of the barber shop. The newly acquired buildings will be renovated inside and out for new businesses in the near future, according to Mrs. Johnson. Mr. Johnson, a barber on Main Street for the past 35 years, will move to the new barber shop location when renovation is completed. Also being renovated will be the apartments over the business places which are presently in a deplorably rundown run-down condition. These will be remodeled, redecorated and new fronts will be put on the buildings to add beauty and dignity to the business area. Mrs. Johnson, who has been in business for several years here and in Spanish Fork, and who has worked and had a vital interest in-terest in the beautification and business development of the city, has been an active civic and club worker in Springville. She worked on the community equipped first-aid truck. All jeeps are radio-equipped and the patrol recently invested in two $750 walkie-talkies to further facilitate rapid communications. com-munications. Sheriff Ralph Chappie has the highest praise for the men of the jeep patrol. Besides crediting the patrol with having saved Utah County "thousands and thousands of dollars, he also praised them for their organizational efficiency." Praising the patrol as "better than any that I know of," the Sheriff said, the patrol has been organized for 14 years starting from three individuals. There are 30 men now and a waiting list of 12. Ask individuals who have been assisted by this outstanding patrol and they will be high in their praise of the group. All the men have a common objective to help in the quickest way, those who are in distress.
