During the next few weeks, according to Councilman Ray Loveless, water pressure will be dangerously low in many sections sect-ions of Orem unless the cooper ation of all residents is given. Mr. Loveless pointed out that the "rationing" program is nec essitated, not by a shortage of wattr, but by water lines in certain parts of the city which re too small. These are slated for replacement this summer, ha said. One other factor which will trake city water short during the next week or 10 days is the rnnual cleaning of the Alta Ditch which supplies water to the city reservoir. Water will be turned cut of the ditch this weekend. The schedule of sprinkling turns, as outlined by council, is as follows: Residents of Orem living north of 8th North (Canyon Road) may sprinkle April 21, 24, 27, 30; and May 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15.

Residents living West of State Street and South of 8th North street may sprinkle April 23, 26, 29; and May 2, 5, 8, 11, 14 and 17. Mr. Loveless pointed out that permission has been granted by the Salt Lake Metropolitan Water Wa-ter district to use the aqueduct to carry Orem water from deer creek to ' the citys reservoir. Approval of the bureau of reclamation re-clamation is needed before the 200 feet of pipe is laid between the reservoir and the aqueduct, Bids are now being asked on the laying of new larger lines on Fourth North between 4 th and 8th East streets, and on 8th South between 4th and 8th East. New, larger lines will also be laid this summer between 12th and 16th North on State street.
