Show Council Gives Green Light To Hike In State Street Speed Limit The Orem CityCouncilMonday night reversed its position re garding the recommendations of the Utah State Department of Highways to raise the speed limit on South State Street from 40 miles per hour to 50 miles per hour. Two weeks ago the Council voted vot-ed to Inform the Highway Department Depart-ment that Orem City would not go along with recommendations to raise the speed limit from 900 South to 2000 South State Street until such time as the impact of the opening of the east 1300 South freeway access road could be evaluated. However, on Monday night the council reconsidered its earlier decision and voted to concur with the recommendations. Councilman E. Dixon Larson, serving as mayor pro tern in the absence of Mayor James E. Mangum who was ill, told the Council, "We are not highway engineers. Pr haps we should consider the recommendations recommen-dations of those who are." Councilman Harley Gillman made the motion which was seconded sec-onded by Councilman Paul Washburn Wash-burn to approve the increase in speed limit. The motion carried by a 3-1 vote, with Councilman Stanley A. Leavitt voting 'Nay'. Mr. Larson read a letter of resignation from Garth Wilkinson of the Orem Police Department which was officially accepted by the Council. Councilmen said no other letters let-ters ,of resignation have been submitted by members of the police department, and the Council Coun-cil is hopeful no more will be received. re-ceived. City Manager Earl W. Wen-green Wen-green said he is presently making a study of the pay structures in the police departments of other Utah communities, and will report re-port on his findings at an early date. In other action, the Council passed a resolution establishing a new schedule of fees for culinary water connections, with a basic charge of $195 being set. The Council discussed a petition peti-tion which had been submitted by residents in the area of the street intersection at 1200 South Main, requesting that the present four-way stop signs be left in place in the interest of the safety of children and pedestrians in the area. The city manager said the intersection in-tersection is in the process of being coverted from an east-west through street to a north-south through street in accordance with recommendations of the Orem Safety Council. The Council voted to leave the four stop signs presently in place for the time being until a further study can be made of the traffic problem in the area. In the monthly coordination meeting between the Council and the Orem Chamber of Commerce, Roscoe Carroll, chamber president, presi-dent, discussed current efforts of the chamber to interest business and industry in locating in Orem. Mr. Larson told Mr. Carroll that the architect for the new Orem city center met with the Council earlier in the evening. The city wants to know if the Chamber of Commerce wants to have space for its office included in the center, he said. Mr. Carroll said he would re port the desires of the Chamber to the Council following the next Chamber board meeting. In other action, the Council took no action on a request of Rex Lewis and Jackson B. Howard to alter the present route of the S and- hill Road and to re-zone an ad jacent area to H-l. The Orem Planning CommiS' sion will be asked for a recom mendation on this matter. The opening of bids on the purchase of a fire hose washer found two firms bidding $992 for the unit. The city manager was authorized to use his dis cretion in choosing which bid to accept. 0HS Victorious In Speech Meet The Region Four Division One Interpretive Speed Meet was held Tuesday, March 28 at Lehi High School according to Roberts moot, drama instructor at OHS.

There's no business like monkey business when jour space-happy astro-chimps touch down from their orbital shenanigans to become a young ex-Gl '-farmer's olive-pickin helpers and turn a peaceful French village into a disaster area. From this hilarious situation, Walt Disney produced the wackiest, wack-iest, wildest romantic-comedy, "Monkeys, Go Home!", starring Dean Jones, Yvette Mimieux, and the incomparable Maurice Chevalier, Cheva-lier, and the results add up to solid family entertainment. Based on G. K. Wilkinson's popular novel, "The Monkeys," this laugh-loaded Gallic romp brought France to Hollywood. A French story with French locales and practically an all-French cast turned the. studio backlot into a Provence setting. i 1 f i Y Vs " V) Mr. Davis Funeral Rites Held For Stanley Davis Funeral services were held Tuesday for Stanley Robert Davis, 72, who died Friday of a heart attack at his home 2005 South Main, Orem.

MfiftM Proper fertilization is the management practice that most often brings the grower the highest returns. It is the one practice that can be measured in terms of added income. For example, the grower who yields only 15 tons of sugar beets per acre will net only $54.50 per acre in profits (based on a gross return of $15 per ton). Yet the grower who increases his fertilizer investment and reaches 33 tons per acre will realize a $247.50 per acre net profit! How much fertilizer? Ask your local USS Fertilizer dealer to help you test your soil. On the basis of those tests he'll recommend the right amount of USS Fertilizers to insure you a "bumper crop."
