After teaching for 29 years at Orem Junior High School, Sumner moved over to Oak Canyon Junior High School in Lindon, where he has now taught for 10 years. Many years ago, Jack Sumner purchased some land on 1600 North in Orem, where he still farms nine acres. For the past 10 years, the Sumners have lived in their home at Sundance in Provo Canyon. During his lengthy career at the Orem-Geneva Times, he not only saw, but also participated in the conversion conver-sion of the traditional printing print-ing processes and newspaper newspa-per production methods from the use of hot lead type to the use of computers. He became proficient in operating operat-ing the Mergenthaller Line-o-Type machine, using hot lead to cast "lines of type," as well as later generations : 'TV ?-r -m . - i,in . .

Mountain View coach Dave Houle said, "It took her about six weeks to get back after she hurt her knee but she looks like she hasn't missed a beat." She came out big and started the season with 15 points against Alta. However, with three other starters averaging double-figures, Gillespie is not able to score big numbers in every game but she is always an impact player. In addition to her 12.1 points per game, she is also averaging seven rebounds, six assists and five steals per contest. con-test. "Some days she scores two points and some its 36. She loves her teammates and will do whatever she can to help them," Houle said. "Everybody loves Mallory. She is a great human being." The junior from "a little town in Utah" is getting a lot of attention atten-tion from universities. A fair Continued from front page McKellip, B.M. Jolley and A.H. Christensen appointed members. For nearly 70 years, the Orem Metropolitan Water Board has rendered service in procuring water rights to meet the growing needs of the community. The board operates independently of the city, except for the appointment of its Board of Directors. For 25 years, the three-member three-member Orem Metropolitan Water Board worked closely with the City Council in the acquisition and distribution of culinary water. Membership on the board was expanded to five members mem-bers in 1960. As Utah moves into its fifth year of drought, observers say the chances of getting even an average spring snow pack, are dwindling. dwin-dling. The recent meeting of the Metropolitan Water Board, held at the Orem Public Works Building, focused on prospects for enough snow to produce a normal water season. Officials agreed that if the current dry conditions continue for the remainder of January, only a record snowfall for the remainder of the winter could generate a normal snow pack. Now, comprised of Glade Gillman, chair; Bruce Chesnut, vice chair; and Vance Calder, Vern Stratton, Rick Lewis, Russell Brown and Jack Jones, the Orem Metropolitan Water Board discussed the proposal of the Provo River Water Users Association to enclose the Murdock Canal. The proposal is to build a box culvert for 23 miles of the canal and also to construct con-struct an enclosure project, all of which is estimated to cost $90 million. Bruce Chesnut suggested that several agencies would be most interested in participating partici-pating in the cost of enclosing enclos-ing the canal, if they could benefit from the water that would be saved from evaporation evapo-ration or seepage. "Since the Metropolitan Water District of Orem has substantial ownership in various water stock, which is carried in the canal, we would have a sizable obligation obliga-tion in paying our share of the cost of the project: possibly, possi-bly, $3,500,000 to $4,000,000," Chesnut said. Since work on the canal project is expected to be underway for the next 10 to 15 years, the board passed a motion for the Orem Metropolitan Water District to participate financially in its construction. Reflecting on last summer's sum-mer's water concerns, Chesnut explained one challenge the city faced. Governor Leavitt asked residents res-idents not to water during the daytime, but only at night. Thus, during the day, the city would fill up all of its tanks and run the wells to meet capacity. Then, about 7 p.m., the tanks would be sucked down and the wells struggled to keep up with the demand. Board members discussed dis-cussed prospective new sites for wells and possible locations for water storage facilities.

FORMER STEELWORKER Continued from front page to see Geneva fold." Terry Pyne, who has a B.S. in microbiology and chemistry and an M.B.A., both from BYU, started work at Geneva Steel as a chemist a few years before his dad retired from the mill. He was one of the 1,200 workers laid off when Geneva shut its doors in November 2001. "It wasn't a surprise," Terry Pyne said. "They had losses for five years before they shut down. It was kind of sad but not unexpected." Former Geneva Steel workers are doing a variety of things. Some are using federal dollars now available avail-able to train for a different occupation. Most of those workers are getting retrained at Utah Valley State College, according to Dennis Kujala, president of United Steelworkers' Local 2071. The ones who aren't getting get-ting retrained are "out beatin' the bush like everyone every-one else that's unemployed," unem-ployed," Kujala said. Terry Pyne isn't beating any bushes, but he is pruning prun-ing trees at the orchards he and his dad own. He had no interest in being retrained because he didn't want to start another career. Terry said he thought the retraining retrain-ing option was a good idea for younger workers, but he felt fortunate to have his orchards to fall back on. The Pynes' fruit stand on the corner of 1200 South and Main Street in Orem is a familiar sight to Orem residents during the apple season in the fall. They grow and sell a variety of apples, as well as tart pie cherries. Both of Max and Terry Pyne said they love working work-ing outside in the orchards. M.1U !!
