Greenwood has announced an-nounced has candidacy for Utah County commissioner for a four-year term. Greenwood cites a lifetime of public service and says that although most people his age have retired, he is still three months younger than President Reagan. I have learned what it takes to achieve good county government," says Greenwood. During an earlier term as commissioner, Greenwood supported the organization of the Utah Valley Industrial Development Association (UVIDA) and the Central Utah Water Project (CUP). He is a former mayor of American i Fork and served two years as an American Fork Councilman. He also is a former Utah County Road Supervisor and a former City and County Road Administrator for the State of Utah. He served as a Field Representative for Senator Frank Moss. "I've had 50 years experience as a small businessman," says Greenwood. He believes he can help reduce property taxes by one mil or By Cathe Owens Anyone who has been following the media regarding the leeway election elec-tion that came to an end last week is sure to recognize the names Ray Graham, and R. L., or Bob Wright. Ray Graham is a concerned citizen who spear-headed the petition that led to last weeks' election. He was concerned with inadequate funding fun-ding in the district which did not allow for enough textbooks and school supplies sup-plies which he understands to be a fundamental part of a solid education. Bob Wright is also a concerned citizen who saw the other side of the coin. Wright focused on the "taxpayer point of view" perhaps at the expense of the educational point of view. Both men spent time and effort to make their opinions known among the general public. Now that the polls are closed, and the ballots counted, the media debate between the two is over, but the two sides of this coin may never see eye to eye. "During the campaign we operated oper-ated from the mistaken assumption that aU we would need to do to win the , election was present compelling evidence evi-dence of the need for additional funds in our schools." Graham claimed, "C'We feel that with the cooperation of the mass media in the valley, such evidence was effectively presented. , tm Accident Fatal For Couple 1 An elderly Orem couple died from injuries sustained in an accident Thursday morning at 1600 N. State when their car was struck broadside by an Alpine School District bus. According to Orem Dolice spokesman Gerald Nielsen, the bus had just dropped off its passengers at Orchard Elementary and was returning retur-ning to the district bus garage when the accident occurred.

Greenwood believes in orderly growth and development. While serving as County Commissioner, he helped do away with sprawled urban growth and since that time, County ordinances have encouraged residential development within city limits. Leeway Debate Continues What we tailed to do was understand the anti-education sentiment that exists ex-ists in this valley. Graham sensed a real need for financial support for the schools in the four areas prescribed by the leeway; textbooks, supplies, teacher aides in large classes, and maintenance of existing ex-isting buildings. Wright, on the other hand, made his opinion clear; that the district officials are irresponsible in spending the funds they receive, and claimed that the monies provided by the leeway would be used, in the end, to over-pay teachers. Wright, who claims he was "lamblasted. . .for daring to present a different view point" claimed that the whole campaign was a hoax, and that district officials were trying to "paint as bleak and dismal picture for the parents as possible." At a school board meeting September Sep-tember 23, Wright went before the board and pointed out what he saw as problem areas in the district with calls to economize, and generously offered of-fered his services to assist. But Wright's blatant accusations that the district officials were fabricating the "need" for more supplies, answered by the school board pointing out some of the "inaccuracies" used as fact in some of Wright's publications, turned turn-ed the meeting into a heated discussion. discus-sion. Doug Forsyth, 352 E. 150 N., Orem also was involved in the accident. acci-dent. His car struck the rear of the bus after it collided with a vehicle drive by 82-year-old Dave Jenkins and his 81-year-old wife, Adra May Jenkins. They were taken to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center where they later died. Forsyth and a school-aged son were not injured.

A long-time sports enthusiast, Greenwood chaired drives to build the Smith Fieldhuse and original football stadium at BYU and at one time recruited Eddie Kimball and Stan Watts. As a Utah County Commissioner, I will establish a CityCounty Recreation Deoartment. " Greenwood was instrumental in beginning the "Headstart" program and also to reorganize the County Health Department.

He will help establish ritv rwe-sentation rwe-sentation on the County Civil Defense Board and County Health Department. As a County Commissioner, Greenwood will form a committee to meet monthly with representation from cities, school district, BYU, Utah Technical College, State Training School, Chambers of Commerce, public utilities and churches. Greenwood's slogan, is: "Vote Experience." "This District Administration had lied, and perpetuated a hoax." Wright claimed. The fact remains, however, that children are sharing textbooks, and or using out-dated texts, and that teachers cover supply shortages out of their own pockets. According to Graham, "We are in for a long educational drought in this district. We have yet to reap the long term effects of the large class size and limited educational materials in our elementary schools." Perhaps the leeway is not the solution to the problem, but money, where it is needed, may be. Some concerned con-cerned parents have donated extra money to their child's teacher for needed supplies, and as Jim Thomas, a teacher who was present at the latest school board meeting reports, even volunteering to hire teacher aides for their children's over-sized classes. Community involvement may be the key to public education in the years to come. into his lane. He said he was unable to avoid the collision because of the wet roadway soaked by a rainstorm. Immediately following the impact Forsyth ran to the passenger vehicle and turned off the ignition. Lee Gillman, Alpine School District's route coordinator came to the accident scene shortly after.
