Miss Virginia McGinley of the Class of '29 would act as chairman.

A suggestion was made by resident resi-dent Fred Eley to take a ride over the road leading to Camp Cloud Rim a Girl Scout Camp above Bonanza Flat. Eley said "great improvement" had been made on the road leading to the camp and felt "certain that if Parkites would do that, they will be well repaid and will come back home, fully resolved to stop criticizing criticiz-ing the efforts of all those whose efforts ef-forts have made it such a good road." Eley was speaking of the Guardsman Guard-sman Pass road. Also, the Park City Library was boasting the addition of 214 new books. The new collection "had something for everyone," noted the Record. 20 Years Ago A community meeting was scheduled by Park City Superintendent Superinten-dent Dennis Nelson to help inform Park City residents about the school district. Expected to be the "first step in the face-to-face development of policy, goals, aspirations and objectives objec-tives to meet the needs of today's children," the meeting was open to all. In other news, the Silver Wheel Theatre was featuring "The Secret of the Haunted Mill" melodrama over the weekend before Halloween. Also, Lee Jorgensen of the Utah Travel Council predicted out-of-state visitors would spend five to 10 percent more in 1969 over the previous year. "Utah is part of the camper explosion explo-sion that is taking place in outdoor recreation sections of America," From Time to Time said Jorgensen. "Many trailer-courts trailer-courts were turning away overflow crowds. State parks and national forest campgrounds were generally near capacity. Yet, we haven't heard complaints from motels. It seems they did quite well and in some cases were 30 percent over last year." Jorgensen said many of the state's visitors were venturing into Utah's Color Country, including Zion National Na-tional Park. It was noted that Wasatch mountain moun-tain ski resorts reported "excellent increases in skiers. Backed by a cooperative advertising campaign and publicity campaign between the Utah Ski Association and the Utah Travel Council, resort managers reported more ski package tours by non-resident skiers." Don Redman, manager of Park West, reported his resort ended last season in the black despite a late start to the season. 10 Years Ago After weeks of research and interviews, inter-views, the city decided upon Salt Lake City resident Bill Ligety as its new planning director. Ligety would replace David Preece, who vacated the position three months earlier. "This job is going to be a real challenge," said Ligety. "There is a tremendous amount of development pressure right now, and there are varying ideas in the city on how to deal with it. The next step is to work out a manageable plan."

"I know this is going to be a tough job, especially right now in Park City's life. But it will be an interesting in-teresting job, one that I'm really looking forward to," said Ligety. Mayor Jack Green noted it had "been difficult not having a planning director for the past months. It has resulted in a backlog of presentations presenta-tions to the planning commission, which may be just as well. There was a concern that we would jump right in and hire the first person that applied for the job, rather than take our time and get the best person with the experience we need. "We think we've done well hiring Bill. He'll add a great deal to the planning and zoning problems we're experiencing." Also, in national news, tens of thousands of homosexual men and women from the United States and abroad marched on the capital to urge passage of gay rights legislation. legisla-tion. Organizers of the first national gay rights march predicted 100,000 people would participate before the day was over. Many of those present carried signs. Some read: "Two, four, six, eight.
