The club naturally made mis takes,, and hope that next year they wil be able to profit by their experience in making the 24th of July a big day for Orem. We salute the Orem Boosters Club for a job well done. Where Does Orem End and Where. Does Provo Begin? It has recently been brought to our attention that Provo radio announcers are now extending Provo city limits to 14th South in - Orem. We realize that Provo has about expanded as far north as her city limits will allow, but we do not feel that places of busintss that are located north of the canal that crosses the highway high-way coming up the hill in south Orem should be referred to as North Provo. This canal marks the boundary line between Provo and Orem, the way we under- ACCIDENTS MAR HOLIDAY WEEKEND The holiday weenkend in Orem and increased traffic was the cause of 12 accidents which wee investigated by the Police department. de-partment. Two people were sent to the hospital and considerable property damage was incurred by 'oe cars involved. Three accidents occurred Fri- day. Paul Christen, 31, Provo, was making a left hand turn at 1250 So. State and a car driven by Gerald Plowman, 32, Logan, was following too close and ran into the Christen car. Mr. Plowman Plow-man .was issued a citation for following too close. There was 450 damage to the Plowman car and about $100 damage to the Christen vehicle. Owen Skousen, 22,'Provo, was following too close and ran into a car driven by Phillip Ford, 22, urem, wnen rord pulled out to avoid hitting a car driven by Mary Restool, 37, Orem, who was making a left hand turn at 8th South and State Street.

It was also brought to our attention at-tention that recently when Earl Norman Hinkins was honored as the guest of Roy Rogers, he was claimed as a Provo boy by the Provo Chamber of Commerce, although he lives in Vineyard, goes to Union School, and will probably attend Lincoln or Ofem High school. We should thank Provo for this, because we must admit the Orem Chamber of Commerce was asleep and let this chance for a little natioial recognition slip. Well, so far these verbal- annexations an-nexations have not taken in the city hall nor the post office, so we feel we are safe for a little while longer. Another Pet Gripe Recently when the plane crash on the slopes of Mt. Timp was warranting publicity, a TV announcer an-nouncer on one of our Salt Lake stations kept referring to Mt. Timpanogos as Mt. Timpanaugus How the station management ccould let a name as prominent as Mt. Timpanogos be murdered by a mispronouncement day after af-ter day, is far from our under standing. The only answer we could figure out is that the man agement or the stockholders do not listen to their own TV station. On the Subject of Errors We read in a recent Coronet magazine a story of a man who went into a sporting goods store to tell the management about a mis-spelled word in their win dow display. The sign advertised advertis-ed "Fishing Tickle". The store's owner told the man that he was aware of the mistake. "But," he explained, "you'd be surprised how many people come in to tell us about it, and each one usually makes a purchase, II you can judge by this stan- dard. the Orem fruit stands must be doing a booming business. busin-ess. Several Orem residents have mentioned noticing such Mis spelled words as Raspbarres, mellons. berrys and cherrys bannas, and cantulop, as they drove along State Street. We make mistakes, too. If we ever have occasion to wonder if anyone reads the "Times" we need only recall some of the times we "goareti" ana nia aoz-ens aoz-ens of calls and callers to tell us of our error. But we can't see that it has especially. Increased In-creased our volume of business. Margie Palmer, 16, Orem. and a car driven by Shirley E.
