Highwater continues rushing down the Weber River to be allocated by the Weber River Water Users Association for rrigation. Despite the inconvenience of minor looding along the Weber's shores, the water is a welcome sight. Coalville though has yet to reap the benefits of this winter's substantial snowfall. Lewis Peak, whose runoff supplies Coalville's culinary water, will not begin to melt until July. Jntil then. Coalville residents are asked to cooperate in rationing existing culinary water supplies. The courthouse in Coalville has been full of action. Both political parties have met to lominate candidates for county offices and a lew County Planner was hired. Stan Strebel of star Valley, Wyoming will take over the post formerly held by Max Greenhalgh. Greenhalgh ivill then concentrate his planning efforts in Park City for a private firm. Discouraged fishermen should not give up all lope. The late runoff has delayed planting of most streams and reservoirs but the Department Df Wildlife Resources still expects an excellent fishing season.

At that point I never imagined that less than a year later I would be able to say "Sunday an EVEN MORE beautiful thing than last year happened at the Kimball Art Center"'...but it did! Over three hundred people from Park City, Salt Lake, Ogden, and surrounding areas gathered to support the Kimball Art Center in its second major fund raising event. Like last year, the benefit was sponsored by the Kimball Art Guild and featured the Utah premiere of Steve Tisch's new film, "Almost Summer" followed by an extravagant champagne reception at the Art Center. An added attraction to this . year's fundraiser was a full day of sports activities at the Park City Golf Course, Park City Racquet Club, and the Alpine Slide. There are many, many people who merit thanks and recognition for a job well done.

And of course many thanks to all those who attended the benefit for their support and optimistic belief that June 11 really would be "Almost Summer." Laurie Tisch "Almost Summer" Chairperson Never Again Editor: My name was unfortun-i' unfortun-i' ately linked witb anarticle about redlining in Park City, I wasted half an hour explaining to the Newspaper cub reporter how the local banks are making an effort to make loans in Park City, but because of the way loans are marketed out of state it is hard to qualify the old part of town. First Security Bank who was mostly attacked has made a tremendous effort to make loans in the older part of town. They are helping to get the Park City Depot restored and worked with the Kimball Art Center. I have had an account with Park City First Security for fourteen four-teen years and they have helped me with several loans; incidentally, all in the older part of town. I specifically told the reporter that the Park City banks were not trying to redline. Due to irresponsible journalism, I was put in the same paragraph with someone some-one who has a grudge, but would not give their name. When things are written out of context, any reporter can use things he wants to mane it appear that the interviewee inter-viewee supports any proposition proposi-tion the reporter is trying to substantiate at the time. I've learned in a very unfortunate way, never to be interviewed again. Harry F. Reed !AHLiHl-::vi Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner Asked For Article Editor: I and several other realtors in Park City asked The Newspaper to write an article on lending procedures proce-dures or quoting the paper, "Redlining." My main objective was to insure that all people were aware of the tight money problems not only in Park City, but also all over the country. As we all know, Park City is the "IN" place to live and lots of people are trying to buy and invest here. As money gets tighter, some are bound to lose out on financing finan-cing and a lot of feelings get hurt. I was one of these hurt, but my only intention was to point out that each bank should look at each individual indivi-dual deal and not the town as a whole. "Redlining" is illegal and I'm sure that First Security or any other bank is not deliberately practicing this. Banks are at this time having a very hard time selling their loans and this accounts for many of the problems. The problem lies only at the top government level and the banks of our town have been instructed to follow the rules there is basically nothing they can do to alleviate this until the "higher ups" do. I had no intention of slandering First Security Bank or any other bank and I apologize if this is the feeling they received. Sincerely, Joanne Pillinger Video Bar On Heber Ave. Mi Plans for a new night spot were presented to the Planning Plan-ning Commission at their discussion session June 7. Tom Hurd of New York City intends to create a video bar in the building previously pre-viously occupied by the Mountain Transit Authority on the corner of Heber Avenue, directly across the street from the Utah Coal and Lumber restaurant. The End Run will be designed similar to The Slope in Aspen, which includes in-cludes a tiered, carpeted floor that slopes toward the Advent video screen. Sports fans will be able to sit in comfort on the foam padded floor and watch continuous sports programs. "We will show a wide variety of sports including skiing, NFL, wind surfing, boxing you name it and we'll be showing it," Hurd said. He also hopes to show some older, first-run movies and an occasional cartoon. In addition, the video screen has television capability to show live sports action. "This will be the first modern video screen bar in Park City," Hurd commented, com-mented, adding he intends to open up as soon as possible. 7 a.m. 6 p.m. Sunday mrkaiu u Skateboarders, soap box derby enthusiasts, parade entrants!
