Orem Forum Editors Note: Orem-Geneva Times is happy to present the first of two contributions which are 'submitted to the Orem Forum by a prominent Orem citizen for all residents to consider in the interest of community betterment. Yours for More and Better Drinking Water By Oscar H. Anderson Since the matter of purchasing ertv. t m t .ii.m k. k. the Thomas property in South Fork of Provo Canyon came up for discussion at a recent city council meeting, I should like to carry on the discussion especially espec-ially since there is a mistake a-float. a-float. According to the Orem-Geneva Times it seems to have been thought that Oscar Anderson owns .47 of a second foot of water wa-ter in South Fork and that he is trying to sell the water to Orem City. Oscar Andersos doesn't own or claim any water in the South I Fork of Provo Canyon. He is, however, acting as an agent for Charles W. Thomas who does own land and water rights in South Fork. Here is hoping our newspaper will provide space for a rather lengthy discussion. It will be interesting in-teresting as well as informative for all people of Orem. In my opinion it is one of the most important im-portant matters to come up for discussion during the life of our city. In order for people to get an overall' picture I must go back and state how and when my idea of acquiring Lost Creek for Or em started. First, let me say, for the information of the many who do not know where or what Lost Creek is it la l9r atre-m nf lovely clear, pure ice cold water rising near the foot of Mount, iimpanogos. up me niusiaei norm irum unns in trovo an- yon. It flows on an averege of aDout tour secona leet oi water. ' The other day when I was there i sduge suuwea six. in mfni there was close to five second feet of water. My guess is that it is about four times as large as Alta Is at the present time. A few years ago, Mr. and Mrs U L. Donnan, who at that time owned the Upper . Falls" resort, came .Into my office and asked If I thought I could tell their prop fVi ' ft'' v v i Mrs. E. Wayne Aired . . . named president of the Orem Business and Professional Women's Club. Orem BPW Club Elects New Officers Mrs. Mollie Aired was elected president of the Orem Business and Professional Women's Club at its Tuesday evening dinner meeting held at Park's Cafe She succeeds Edna Durham, who has been head of the group for the past year. Mrs. Aired was also named at a recent meeting as the club's "Member of the Year," because of outstanding service to the club and community. She will receive a citation at the State BPW convention in Vernal next month. Other officers named were Evelyn Terry, first vice presi dent; Dorothy Stratton, second vice president; Opal Rigby, recording re-cording secretary; Dorothy Ly man, corresponding secretary; and Lorna Elvick, treasurer. Elections wer under the dir ection of Bessie Meiling, Dorothy Campbell and Ileen Storrs of the nominating committee. Gladys Hardy and Bertha Park were welcomed as new me mbers of the club. The evening was- spent; tn getting re -acquain ted, with each member telling interesting phases of her profes sion. Plans were made for the try. They listed It with me. They said they were quite sure Provo city wanted it. The first thing I did, naturally, was to go up and size things up. I noticed this lovely upper falls stream went right over the Provo city line, that it would be very easy to let the stream into their line. I learned that Mr. Donnan had a decreed right of less than one half of a second foot of water wa-ter but that he had the right to the use of the whole stream for certain purposes. No one could take it away from him without buying it. I proceeded to cliimb to the place where this stream falls over ov-er the ledges. As stated, Mr. Don-nan Don-nan was quite sure Provo would like to acquire the right to the use of that water. But, he said Orem should have the water and he would like to see us get it- At that time all I thought of was to figure how Orem could get that water into our lines. I knew nothing about Lost Creek. To bring Upper Falls water down the canyon would be very expensive. ex-pensive. I noticed the Upper Falls stream could be caught at a higher level than the Alta ditch and that it might be possible to ' wvnon. u across tne canyon to Alta,and some day be int0 !lnes- ; ' The sale price of the Falls property was $21,000.00. I knew Orem needed more good , water. i was anxj0us for Orem to j acquire the Donnan property. By this time I had reason to be quite sure Provo would buy the prop erty rather than let it go to a pivate ownership and risk the possibility of someone making a joint out of it. I had been charged with the responsibility of selling it whether wheth-er one party or another bought Police Launch Vice Campaign Night Club Owner Arrested Sharon Stake j Slates Conference Saturday, Sunday President Philo T.

East returned home last week to Phoenix, Arizona Ar-izona after visiting with Duane Miles and family. Mr. Miles' mother is visiting with them. it. I went to Orem City Council. They turned the proposition down. ; . I then went to Provo City Council. The mayor said they had a good supply of water and did not particularly need it. But, he said, Orem needs that water and he would be willing to be a party to help us get it. These are the words he said: "tell Orem if they will buy Upper Falls, we will trade them Lost Creek for it" I was not long in learning more about Lost Creek. I learned that it could be caught at an elevation eleva-tion higher than Alta ana be piped around to Alta. Happily I went back to Orem City Council thinking I had found something far more valuable to us than a pot of gold. Again they turned the proposition down, acting act-ing in good faith, of course. They said we did not have the money. They should not be blamed. blam-ed. They did what they thought was best. Their funds were limited lim-ited and they had a large area to cover.
