The first speaker was Mrs. Clyde Ault, his teacher in school last year. She told of his good work in school of his fine cooperation and closed by reading an ap propriate poem. E.

Members of the family and the ward Relief Society had charge of the flowers. mendaUons. Their findings were submitted to the board of directors direc-tors j)fjhe chamber and out of this came the four projects and their order of importance. It Is generally felt that the city sewer in American Fork is a number-one- problem and both -from a health standpoint and continued growth of our community com-munity it must be hadL. City officials are of the same opinion and have been crowding the engineering of this project all year, along with a financing plan. The plans should soon be ready for submission to the public pub-lic and then actual construction work can go forward, possibly on some parts of the project this faU. . , Housing, or better, lack ' of housing, has been a draw back to the growth of this city for at least five years now and is at the present time the one thing keeping hundreds of families from making their homes here. Individuals are erecting a few homes within the city but there is no contractor building any units, either for sale or rent, and as a result the home seeker la being forced to locate elsewhere. This problem of more housing is the one most Important to the growth and development of our city at the present time many citizens believe. ? The improvement and oiling of thexalance of the Scenic Loop road is very , essential If we are to Increase the tourist travel Into American Fork Canyon, to the cave and on over the Loop road. Committees should continue con-tinue to press for this, improver ment, It is felt. , The establishment of an airport air-port in American Fork, or in the near vicinity, is quite important at this time and active committees commit-tees are still at work on a joint port -for American Fork and Pleasant Grove. However, the securing of adequite ground and the financial problem seems to have been the stumbling blocks up to date. It should be possible to work, these angles out with continued effort, however, and the Chamber of Commerce and other civic groups are pushing the matter for a successful conclusion.
