Jensen, former president of Alpine Al-pine Stake in American Fork will be honored at aHomecomingTes-timonlal aHomecomingTes-timonlal on Sunday, July 31, in the American F or k Sixth Ward Chapel Cha-pel at 6:30 p.m. President Jensen and family returned recently to American Fork after completing a two year assignment in Edinburgh, Scotland, Scot-land, as head of the North Scottish Scot-tish Mission and a year's assignment assign-ment as the head of the California Californ-ia M i s s i o n with headquarters on the Los Angeles Temple grounds. President Jensen was re-assigned to the California Mission a year ago when the North Scottish Scot-tish Mission was consolidated with the Scottish Mission: He remarked that the two missions mis-sions were very different. As examples of contrast he stated that the weather in Scotland was very cold compared to the warm Southern California climate. He also stated that there was some contrast, in the way in which the people are accepting the Church. In the California Mission, which embraced Southern California, Cali-fornia, Southern Nevada and all of Arizona, 65 converts came into the Church within the past year. At the time the Jensens left the Los Angeles area, the mission was divided into two missions with the California Mission now including Los Angeles proper, up the coast to San Luis Obispo, the Mt. Whitney area, the Mo-jave Mo-jave Desert and over to Las Vegas. Veg-as. The Southern California Mission Mis-sion with headquarters at Anaheim Ana-heim covers Orange County, Riverside, Ri-verside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Di-ego, Palm Springs and Arizona. The 300 missionaries in the California Mission will now leave 150 in each of the new missions. The Jensen family are very happy to be home again in American Amer-ican Fork, it is reported. While still in the mission field, President Jensen was appointed by the First Presidency of the IDS Church to the Priesthood Welfare Committee. He will travel tra-vel throughout the Church attending at-tending conferences on the weekends week-ends in this new assignment. The family will maintain their home in American Fork. With President Jensen while in Scotland were his family, Ruth, Mrs. Jensen, Karla and Ann, Shirley, Barbara, Robert and Dorothy. In California Cali-fornia all members were together togeth-er with the exception of Karla and Ann. tw 1 , "St. , r'- i 'J. President and Mrs. PJiU D. Jensen cept Sunday. The programs begin at 8 p.m. at the monument visitor visi-tor center located in American Fork Canyon. Lecture topics are: (1) The National Park Service after 50 years; (2) Geology and history ot Timpanogos Cave; (3) Through the seasons at Timpanogos Timpan-ogos Cave; (4) National Parks and monuments of Utah; and (5) National Parks and monuments of Color ado-Nevada-Idaho and Wyoming within a 350 mile radius ra-dius of Salt Lake City. Superintendent Thomas A. Walker reports that travel to the monument is 23 per cent over that of last year. During the first five days of July over 5,000 people visited the caves. This contrasts sharply with travel in 1934, the first year Timpanogos Cave was managed by the park service. On that year 5,000 people visited the caves during the entire season. sea-son. Park officials expect that during dur-ing the next few weeks the one-millionth one-millionth person will visit the caves since they were opened to the public in 1922. A look into the future reveals a sharp rise in travel If visitation continues to increase at the current rate a million people will visit the caves during the next years. Cecil R.

LXIII' Governor Rampton Speaks at Tibbie Fork Dedication The basic answer to flood prevention pre-vention is restoration of vegetation vege-tation on range lands, Governor Calvin L. Rampton pointed out last Wednesday as he spoke at the dedication ceremonies of the Tibbie Fork Debris Basin and fishery. The dedication was the second to be held during the day. Earlier the Grove Creek Debris Basin above Pleasant Grove had been dedicated. Governor Rampton said that much terracing work has been completed along the mountains of the Wasatch front. Yet even with the best we can do, he said, there will occur serious floods when due to flash rain storms we have run-off from the canyons and from minor ravines. "The dam we are dedicating here today is an effort to meet that problem," he said. A multipurpose multi-purpose structure, it will meet three important needs of the area: (1) It acts as a storage area for late irrigation water; (2) Serves for collection of the water in the reservoir to regulate regu-late flow of the stream below, and (3) Serves as a recreation site for Utah residents. 'Water flow in these moun tains as in the past is never constant," the governor told the large group of state, county and local officials who gathered at the picturesque site. 'We have seen the wild acts of nature when the flash rains came and damaged areas like these and living areas below," Gov. Rampton said.' He pointed out that new flood control problems are developing as we cover areas ordinarily cov ered with sod, lawn or fields with roofs, blacktop, streets and driveways. In order to meet this problem, he said, it is essential that it not be complicated by run offs from the mountain areas. Governor Rampton praised the "foresight and advance planning" that have gone into the American Fork-Dry Creek Watershed project. pro-ject. Jerry Hansen, Soil Conservation Conserva-tion Service unit conservationist, conservation-ist, acknowledged the cooperation of federal, state and local agencies agen-cies in working together to com plete the project and commended the individual farmers and ranchers ranch-ers who have set up accelerated conservation programs on their own farms. He said the American Fork- Dry Creek project is well plan ned in that it takes into consideration consi-deration land treatment of each acre according to its needs and capabilities whether located at the top of the watershed at 12,000 feet or at the bottom at Utah! Lake with an elevation of 4,200; feet. I Improvement work includes an effective feasible combination of both land treatment and structural structur-al measures needed to stabilize and improve the water resources in the area, he pointed out. This work reduces water losses, loss-es, provides additional water for late irrigation, decreases operation opera-tion and maintenance on irrigation irriga-tion systems, and insures an economic eco-nomic stable agriculture in the community. As an example of land treatment treat-ment measures, he noted the terracing, furrowing, reseeding, tree planting, etc., being carried out by the Uinta National Forest officials on the Pleasant Grove Ranger District. These, he commented, com-mented, help to slow the "running "run-ning water down to a walk so it can be handled in the valley. Mr. Hansen said the Tibbie Fork structure is the final debris de-bris basin to be constructed in. the program. Others include the Battle Creek and Grove Creek Debris basins above Pleasant Grove and the Dry Creek basin above Lehl. The 56-foot high earth-fill dam at Tibbie Fork will serve to take the peak off flash floods and send the water down to the valley with a lower head for use in farm irrigation. irri-gation. Besides proving flood run off reduction, sediment Is trapped In the basin, Mr. Hansen said.
