The Hjorth family has been Scout oriented for many years, and worked together to achieve this common goal of Eagle Scout for all of the boys. All of the sons have also served LDS missions when they were old enough. Father, Paul, also recently earned recognition in Scouting when he received his 20-year service certificate at the Hobble Creek District Recognition and Fellowship Banquet. He is a merit badge counselor and troop committeeman. Alan, the oldest of the Hjorth sons, who was recently married and now living in Cedar City, earned his Duty to God award in addition to the Eagle badge. He served a mission for the LDS Church in Ohio. Gary, who served in the Chilean Mission and also earned his Duty to God award, lives in Springville with his wife Linda and two daughters.

Every young girl dreams of becoming Miss America. The girl who is selected Miss Springville could be the next Miss America. Now is the time to decide for any woman in the Springville area who qualifies. Sandy Riser, Pageant general chairman, said in calling for candidates to enter the pageant. Local government package signed A package of legislation amending state statutes . concerning local governments has been signed by Governor Scott M. Matheson. The bills were co-sponsored by State Senators Robert Bowen (D-Spanish Fork) and Karl Snow (R-Provo). The legislation corrects language in a 1977 law which mistakenly referred to county commissioners rather than city commissioners. Senate Bill 18 clarifies how towns are incorporated while Senate Bill 19 enables the governing body of a municipality to accept a petition for annexation by ordinance as well as resolution. "This cleans-up a number of problems in our codes," said Senator Bowen. Senator Snow added, "This is a good example of both parties working together for the benefit of the people of Utah." Governor Matheson said, "If all legislation were as well handled as this package of bills from Our Utah County Senators we'd all be much better off." Other changes resulting from the legislation includes elimination of the requirement that articles of amendments amend-ments be filed whenever a municipality changes its geographic description, provides that ordinances which do not have effective dates shall become final passage by the governing body, whichever is sooner. Hot ashes can cause garbage truck damage There are still some persons placing hot ashes out to be picked up along with their regular garbage. The City has experienced several fires in garbage trucks through the winter and these have been caused by hot ashes. Alertness on the part of the collection crews has prevented serious damage thus far. However, serious and expensive damage could result by careless or thoughtless actions of persons with ashes to dispose of. Ashes will stay hot for several days under some conditions and when placed in the garbage trucks with paper and other flamable material, creates a hazardous fire condition. City authorities are asking those who have ashes to dispose of, to make sure the ashes are cold. In the event hot ashes are found causing fires in the garbage trucks in the future, the City will have no alternative but to discontinue collection of ashes of any type, leaving these to be disposed of at the owners own means and expense. Garbage notice There will be no garbage collections made on Monday February 19, this being a national observed holiday, Washington's birthday. Collections will be one day late the remainder of the week following the 19th. Regular schedule will resume on Monday, February 26. Mrs. Riser announced that the pageant will be conducted April 20 at Springville High School. Interested young women may submit their names as entries by contacting Mrs. Riser, 489-4188; Cathy Groneman, 489-4583; or Betty Gleason, 375-7357. Entry forms are available from any of these people.

Talent will be considered in the judging and each contestant should posses some quality of talent, either " trained or potential. In discussing the talent qualification, Mrs. Riser stressed that the ranges varied and that no young woman must necessarily be trained in any specific field.

Personality, poise, beauty and talent are the major requirements. Each contestant will be judged in private interview in evening gown, swimsuit, and in the presentation of her talent. Alpha Theta feels the pageant provides a valuable contribution to the community and to the young ladies who will enter the competition. . It serves the community well because it focuses attention on the high calibre of young ladies who are residents of this area. It serves youth well because it provides the opportunity for the young ladies who compete to gain added poise through public appearances and to gain added maturity to participate in a community program such as the pageant. Most important, it will provide the opportunity for the girls who are winners to obtain an education through the help of scholarships.
