City council members Tuesday night heard a request to restrict parking on a portion of First West street at Main to only a few hours a day, then decided that working with merchants to encourage their employes to park off Main street might be a better solution. DeWayne Falk, manager of Cowleys department store, met with the council and asked that one stall now used for parking of interstate buses, be allowed usp , by the public. Falk said buses only park in the area, which is directly in front of a west entrance to his store, about two hours out of a business day. He said there isnt enough parking for customers to downtown Tremonton and indicated allowing use of the one spot would help out.

The lights went out in Brigham City but reportedly stayed on in Tremonton, Deweyville and as far north as Portage areas. Box Elder county Commissioner Ted Burt of Corinne said the power was disrupted at his home, but his dairy operation about a half mile away and on a different line still had power. Commissioner Reid Neilsen said Portage was not bothered by the outage. Little Trouble Local law enforcement agencies said they had little trouble with the outage. Brigham City police said the city hall generator was started less than IS minutes after the lights went out and operations continued without a hitch. No serious problem with blacked out traffic lights were reported either. The Box Elder county sheriffs office said its emergency generator kicked in immediately and business continued as usual. At Cooley Memorial hospital, the hospitals generator failed to start automatically and it was about an hour before it county-wid- e was repaired and in business. A hospital spokesman said no problems arose from the malfunction. It was also reported that television channel four went off the air but the other two major channels, five and two, continued to operate. Western Wyoming also experienced black- outs that lasted up to six hours. - WE ARE g LOOKING FOR AGENTS a M Xi FOR INTERVIEW $156 for Fireworks In other business, the council approved a $150 grant to the chamber of commerce to purchase additional fireworks for the July 24 celebration.
