EVANS Herald Staff Writer An application for a federal Urban Development Action Grant has been withdravm by the city and Victor Borcherds, owner of Seven By SHARON MORREY Herald Staff Writer 'The Lake Park Subdivision site plan approved by Orem City Council'. Tuesday is more than an ordinary site plan. It's a plan for a 55Vk acre recreation' area on the west side of Orem a plan that will include five softball fields, six soccer fields, four lighted tennis courts, two children's playgrounds, a mile-lon- g jogging path and a regulation rugby . 4M - v V In addition, there will be an outdoor basketball court, horseshoe pits, two picnic pavilions and parking space for 384 cars. ;City Recreation Director Jerry Ortiz explained that the property at 400 South West Geneva Road was purchased specifically for recreational use from developers who originally planned a subdivision on the land. Ortiz said the additional facilities are badly needed in Orem to relive pressure on the current fields a)id particularly needed on the west. "There are not any such facilities 4 on the west side of Orem," he said. Ortiz said the idea is to move all the adult softball play to the new fields and leave central Orem fields available for youth play. Orem currently has more than 2000 youngsters signed up for youth soccer, nearly 1000 in the youth baseball program and a growing girl's softball league. "This would definitely take a quantum leap in ininimizing the demands on our current facilities," said Ortiz. Orem isn't finished evaluating the costs or ready to propose a funding plan, said Ortiz, but the action of approval Tuesday was a positive step. "The biggest hurdle, obviously, will be to fund it," he said.

Kenneth Glen Trane. 47, also is being investigated in the robberies of three other federally Insured hanking establishments in Utah. Trane is being investigated in the 14 Top Gun armed robberies and one attempted armed robbery at small south valley businesses last winter. The robber in those cases wore a baseball cap bearing the title of the movie "Top Gun." county prosecutors to discuss those cases. g cr "After the funding options are explored and costs are locked in, then we can tie down a timetable," he added. "In my view, this is an involvement in the fitness and well-beiof current and future generations in Orem." ng cease fire, in that historical light which has lasted a year is nothing to shrug away. Axelgard spoke about "Iraq and the Gulf: One Year After the Cease Fire," at the David M. Kennedy Center for International Studies at BYU Thursday morning. The war between the two countries has helped establish a sense of nation in Iraq. The country has three strong communities, the Kurds, the Arab Sunni and the Arab Shiites, but had never had a sense of cohesiveness because of the differences in religous outlook and culture. The war also defined the role of the military in leadership with the governing body and the military each filling a role. There is still a great deal of political uncertainty in Iraq, said Axelgard. "The underlying ideolgi-cconfrontation continues." However, some change has and the government of Iraq has undergone a loosening after the war, said Axelgard. The loosening of strictures was due, in part, to a celebration of Iraq's victory in the war aini in part to a desire of the country's president to be seen as less of a dictator. Iraq suffered a major scandal, al ed still believes , the ' Approval to delay completion of landscaping until Oct. 1, 1990, to coordinate efforts with landscaping of the golf course.

Iraq is a culture where that sort of thing doesn't settle well, he said. The defense minister of the country was the brother of Hussein's wife. He was put under house arrest Then a reconcilation of the three, Hussein, his wife and the defense minister was staged. In May the defense minister was killed in a helicopter accident. It really was an accident said Axelgard. The idea among the people was the accident was no accident. In the minds of people,"perception will overwhelm reality," he said. In an effort to legitimize his said Axelgard. leadership, several reforms had been introduced by Hussein. One of those was some promise of consitu-tionreform. "June 1954 was the last time there was a reasonable election," said Axelgard. The government was holding the possibility of reform like a dangling carrot, along with wider freedom of the press. The people of Iraq have long been suppressed and their individual liberties curtailed. The government is now promising a sort of "glasnost on the Tigris." The death of the defense minister al has caused doubt. The security net-- , work is based on the family network. Now the network is open to question. Hussein is also identifying with the dynasty of the historical Iraq.. Several barriers remain in keep--; ing the peace between Iraq 'and Iran. One of those is the continued disagreement of a border which' dates to the 1600s. "The Iraqs (because of Iran) with an inferiority d complex that won't ;. quit," said Axelgard. Another problem was the 4949'i Geneva Convention dealing with the exchange of prisoners. Iraq accepted the terms but Iran did not. The disagreement remains unsolved. Another problem was the territo; ry gained in the war between the' two nations. That too remained, ' unsolved, said Axelgard. Axelgard spoke out against our : country's neglect. Our country seems to have decided, basically, to keep things as they are. "That's a sign of neglect," he said. Urgent efforts need to be made, he said, because the same political fault lines still exist. The United States government needs to remember Iraq leadership wants the country to manufacture chemical warfare. The council is considering hiring a constable to track down approxi- mately 200 outstanding warrants totalling $31,792. Until now Keetch said that the court waits to get the fines until violators attempt to renew their licenses. "We get more in that way and gotcha letters ( if someone has an outstanding warrant when his income tax return is filed, the state sends the return to the court holding the warrant) than we do on the highway," he said. Unless a constable is hired or other action is taken, Lindon to rely on the IRS and police checking for outstanding warrants. Lindon Mayor Kenneth McMillan said, "We're starting to get some complaints about speeding and run ning of stop signs." The council acted to replace one of the signs with a slow sign. Detective Tom Paul of the Pleasant Police Department recommended removing the sign whieh stops westbound traffic coming off the east bench at 400 North and Canal Drive. "You ought not use stop signs to regulate speed," Paul told the coytf Grove cil. Trane, described by police as a family man who fell upon hard times, is being held without bail in the Salt Lake County jail. Police say he is an electrical supply salesman with no known criminal record. A federal complaint alleges Trane robbed the Credit Union of $200 Wednesday. Prosecutors say he faces penalties of up to 23 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Trane appeared Thursday before U.S. Magistrate Ronald Boyce, who set a detention hearing for Monday. Trane was apprehended Wednesday afternoon by Sandy Detective Mark James 30 minutes following the credit union robbery. one-cou- Hi-La- James heard an attempt-to-locat- e broadcast stating the suspect vehi cle was registered to an Orem man. to spot the car, James drove to the 10600 South overpass at Interstate 15 and started watching traffic. The man surrendered without incident after pulling into the South Towne Mall parking lot. During November 1988, a robber with a penchant for small, strip mall businesses and d restaurants began striking between the 3 and 5 p.m. in the south valley. Before fleeing, the Top Gun robber took his victims to a back room and ordered them to count to 100.
