Utah , Dear Sir: While I was in Salt Lake City in June of this year (19-f (19-f 1) I just happened to see and hear on TV a representative of y-ur city telling about the build:ng of your Civic Centre or Civ'c Auditorium. I was most Interested, and had hoped hop-ed that I would be able to msr'-e a visit to Orem to hear more ab"ut th's adventure, but frv-rd it impossible at the time to do so. Is it possible that you have this story written up some where or, failing that, is it possible that someone might be persuaded to send me some deta'ls about how you accomplished accom-plished the task? I would be hsrpy to know just how large your auditorium is and what fEPcil'ties are included, how much it cost, how long it took, and so forth. . . . We are now here in Leth-bridge Leth-bridge contemplating the building buil-ding of a cultural centre. We have a bequest of some two hundred-f t ty thousand dollars left by a couple for this specific speci-fic purpose which has spurred spur-red our civic authorities on to greater activity, but even so, it has now dragged on for two years and still not much headway has been made. As a rrember of the city Recre-at'on Recre-at'on Commission, I have been apoointed to assist with the planning, and the story of the Orem accomplishment interested inter-ested me greatly. There was something said about- the selling sell-ing of shares to the citizens to raise more money. Anything you could tell me about your project would be most gratefully grate-fully received. v I am acquainted with a number num-ber of people in your community com-munity in case you would care to tell them ahout me: Rairh Laycock (whom I now understand has left for California Calif-ornia for post-erad study); Lynn Zemp, Elvis B. Terry, and more if you would like references. Thank you kindly for your I Dedicatory address and prayer , will be given by Henry D. Moyle, first counselor to LDS President David O. McKay. Bishop Arden L. Rowley will conduct the dedication and give the welcoming address and building report. Other speakers will include James E. Palmer, first coun- consideration of my request. Sincerely ysmrs, Dr. B. Wayne Matkin Dentist 1510 - 9th Ave. South Lethbridge, Alberta Mr. Dover Hunt, Manager Scera Theater, Orem, Utah Dear President Hunt; We have a theater in one of our wards that is owned by the church, and operated by the Nuhaka Ward Bishopric, as the only entertainment in the community of about 5000 people within a radius of 20 miles. This operation is not especially espec-ially desirable as a church activity. And adds a burden of' responsibility and detail to the ward and stake leaders. However, as a community project it may be very desirable, de-sirable, amd make a real con-tribut'on con-tribut'on to the community life. Therefore I am appealing appeal-ing to you for some assistance in the way of information. Can you send us an outline dan of the SceTa Constitution and organization- Its program and objectives, and any othe inform artion that you might think helpful in setting up a community program of a similar simi-lar nature? I will greatly appreciate hearing from you at your convenience. con-venience. With kindest personal regards re-gards and best wishes. " Sincerely Your Brothei, J.
