Because of the new ownership, the Lehi Post Office is undergoing changes with more to come. The Lehi Post Master, Kathy Morgan tenatively plans for a new roof, "hopefully we'll have that before the snow flies." Also hoped for Marvin Christensen, a resident in the Sunset subdivision, asked the council what was being done to correct drainage problems that exist in the development. "I'd like to tell you there's something going on," said Mayor Bill Gibbs, but did not indicate that action was being taken. Another area resident suggested that the problem lies with the higher subdivisions, where runoff brings sand into the Sunset gutters. No formal action was taken on the matter. are a new heat and air conditioning system and new lighting. Two hundred and ninety new residents have been added to the rural route area," commented Charlie Wright, Manager of Post Office Operations in Salt Lake County, "that is a whole third more in just a year." In order to service the new growth, one postal carrier has been added to the staff. Customers are on a waiting list for the post office boxes but not for the first time in Lehi Post Office history. The first of the month usually brings a turnover and those on the list will be first in line. As part of the improvements, Morgan has moved the street mail box from Main Street. In cooperation with First Security Bank next door, they have set up a drive through system using part of the bank property. There are now three boxes; one for metered business, out of town, and local mail. Employee Handbook Committee named The following citizens have been named as members of the Employee Handbook Committee: Councilmember Wayne Carlton will chair the committee, with Councilmember Carma Johnson, Woody Berry, Tink Lewis, Carolyn Player and Russ Peacock. Asphalt program introduced, funding dubious Councilmembers Reed Sunderland and Dee Ray Russon made a motion an a second, respectively, to enhance the curb and gutter efforts throughout the city. For existing homeowners who install their own curb and gutter according to city standards, Lehi City will extend the asphalt to the curb, as funds become available, which the council said could be as long as three to five years. The vote was unanimous. Funeral leave put on ice Although the council was to have voted on changes in the Lehi City Employee Manual regarding funeral leave, Councilmember Dee Ray Russon made a motion to table the matter until the entire manual could be reviewed for possible changes. It passed unanimously. Bullock Continued from front page andputtyingwereunnecessary. But his success in the highly specialized art form was cut short by tragedy in 1989. He suffers from a medical condition caused by an adverse reaction to a vaccine and no longer is able to use his skill because of muscle deterioration and weakness. Doctors have decided that his condition will not improve, although he hopes someday to return to the ancient art of marquetry. Unable to resign to defeat, he has had to turn to another, less taxing medium . . . oils. "Even though he can no longer dohis chosen craft, Neldon ate, drank, slept art; he couldn't quit thinking art; it was tearing him apart; he needed some other means to create his art," reflects his wife, Jewel Bullock. "Our whole life has changed; the focus is now on his oils and prints." Although the change has not been easy, Jewel is quick to point out "where one door closes, another one opens up." That door has been opened through Art AccessVSA, an affiliate of the Kennedy Center for perform ingarts in Washington D.C. The dark winter of his illness can be seen in his portraitures of that cold season. A particular oil shows three black steers in the foreground, looking for roughage under the snow, with a bare desolate tree behind them. The image is one of quiet suffering and endurance. Fortunately Bullock's humor as well as his artistic perception has survived. A building just off the 6th South off ramp of in Salt Lake City sports the letterhead of the MidWest Casket Company. Its neighboring billboard advertised "Leisure Living" with a woman in a bikini; although the contrasting scene was later removed, the juxtaposition was caught in time on Bullock's oils. His dry country humor is also found in his painting of Lehi's roller mills with a semi pulled up to the loadingdock. Advertised on the side of the semi is the Palomino Club, one of the largest exotic nude shows in Las Vegas. Art Access is having a joint showing Bullock's and Christensen's 11 of 1995 at work on July the Art Access Gallery, 339 West Pierpont Avenue, in Salt Lake. A national organization, Bullock's predicament became instrumental in the development of a local program called "Partners." His partner and mentor was Larry Christensen, a fine arts instructor at Brigham Young University and Utah Valley State College and a professionally respected artist throughout thestate. Christensen taught as Bullock's strength allowed, one on one, the techniques and skills needed for the new art form. "Bullock is very competent; since he has been an artist for years, all that I am teaching him is mostly technique," explained Christensen, "Neldon is a very affable person, we have taught each other. His unique style, his point of view has crossed over mediums." Bullock's style in oils is impressionistic, creating the same movement of form with his brushstrokes as was found in his previous marquetry with small cuts of wood. Although a different medium, his paintings have the fingerprint of his personal Americana flavor and his singular perception. 21-Au- g. fluence; two were booked into the county jail. One of the women was already stopped and had the emergency flashers activated. The investigating officer noticed that one of her front tires was straddling the curb, and then he noticed the odor of intoxication. A broken down car led to the charge for the Salt Lake woman. She, too, rated fair on the field sobriety tests, butblew .136 on the breath test. She was also charged with an open container violation and not having a Utah driver's license. The woman from West Jordan received both DUI and open container citations before beingreleased to a responsible adult. A Salt Lake City man was booked into the county jail for drivingunder alcohol. Accordingto theofficer, the woman did poorly on field sobriety tests, and later refused to continue with the breath test. The Orem woman was stopped for an erratic traffic pattern and faulty equipment. Although she did well on the field sobriety tests, she registered . 10 1 on the intoxilyzer. A passenger was also charged with 0 income. 8. Continued from front page suite of the Ross Building(80 West Main). The group became inactive during World War I. The successor to the Lehi Commercial Club was the Lehi Business Men's Club, which was organized in March 1922. The group's purpose, accordingto its constitution, was to "promote the interests of Lehi by giving personal and united support to every legitimate business in Lehi, to secure new business and industries if possible and to provide social recreation." The organization's slogan, formulated by Dr. F. D. Worlton, was "Never mention our drawbacks but mention only our good qualities." Initially the group considered becoming a unit of the Kiwanis Club, but they instead opted to remain independent. Charter leaders ofthe group included J. B. Watson (president), M. S. Lott Frank Gaisford (secretarytreasurer), Dr. F. D. Worlton, E. L. Chipman, R, J. Whipple, Edward Larsen, and E. N. Webb (directors). The group remained active for approximately four years and was succeeded by the Lions Club. Lions Clubs are associations of business and professional men and women who seek to recognize and meet the needs of their communities. The international organization was founded in Chicago in 1917. Today, with 28,000 franchises and more than one million club members, the Lions Club ranks as the world's largest service club organization. Objectives of the group are To create and foster a spirit of generous consideration among the peoples of the world through a study of the problems of international relationships from the standpoint of business and professional ethics. To promote the theory and practice of the principles ofgood government and good citizenship. To take an active interest in the civic, commercial, and social and moral welfare of the community. To unite the members in the bands of friendship and mutual understanding. To provide a forum for the full and free discussion of all matters of public interest, partisan politics and sectarian religion alone excepted. To encourage efficiency and promote high ethical standards in business and professions; provided that no club shall hold out as one of its objects financial benefits to its members. The Lehi Lions Club was chartered by the international organization on 15 March 1927. Charter members of the group included C. B. Adamson, W. E. Berry, E. W. Booth, Bernard Bradshaw, E. C. Chipman, W. D. Christensen, James Comer, T. A. Cutler, J. F. Cutler, W. A. Ford, Robert S. Fox, E. B. Garrett, Richard T. Gilchrist, H. H. Glover, J. M. Goodman, LeoHansen, Felton Hickman, Thomas F.
