Gas Companies Announce Merger The merger of two Southern Utah groups interested in the distribution of natural gas, has been completed, according to a joint announcement from the presidents of the two organizations. e former P. L. Jones, mayor of Nephi, and president of Citizens Consolidated Natural Gas Company, joined with Charles R. Hunter, State Senator from Cedar City, and president of Peoples Consolidated Natural Gas Company, in announcing the merger. The new company will be known as Natural Gas Company of Southern Utah. Mr. Jones is president, and Mr. Hunter, Other officers of the firm are Milton Allen, Salt Lake City, executive vice president; Elwood Correy, Cedar City, secretary, and Eugene Overfelt, Gunnison, treasurer. Executive offices are being established in Salt Lake City at 445 East Second South. Milton Allen, executive vice president, said the company is seeking a certificate from the Utah Public Service Commission to distribute natural gas in Sanpete, Sevier, Juab, Millard, Beaver, Iron and Washington Counties. The PSC is not expected to act on the application, however, until after El Paso Natural Gas Company receives approval from the Federal Power Commission to h build a pipeline from Thistle, Utah, to a point near Las Vegas. Natural Gas Company of Southern Utah plans to buy gas from El Paso at various points along the and distribute it through its own pipeline distribution system. Mr. Allen pointed out that the formation of Natural Gas Company of Southern Utah developd ed from the interest of prominent citizens in all areas of Southern Utah in establishd ing a public utility. He indicated that representatives of outside venture capital from many areas of the United States are interested in obtaining the franchise to distribute natural gas in Southern Utah. He said his group has a keen interest in the project bee cause of the industrial development potential for the area to be served. In addition to the officers, other Directors of the firm are: Dale M.

It was one of the most interesting places we have seen. It seems that Venice was first settled by people who wished to escape the ravages of barbarians who were roaming the country side, so they rowed out to the islands and built their homes. As time wore on, more people came, not because of barbarians, but because of the peacefulness and serenity of this city in the water. It now exisits, a city without automobiles, as far as I know, the only city in the world that has only boats for travel and commerce. When we drove into Venice, we entered a large square area about four city blocks deep and four long. Here were parked cars with many, many parking release slips on. I didnt find out why until later. We drove on by, and presently the road ended at a canal that was about 200 feet across. We took another road, and had the same success. There is no way, at least I found none, to get a car into the streets of Venice. After running around, we decided to park and see where we could go. We stopped the car, got out and paid the required 100 lira to park. Walking over to a sidewalk, we noticed most of the people were going across a bridge, so we joined the party. The bridge led us to the canal again, where we had our first look at the Venice we had seen in pictures. The gondolas with their pointed ends; the traffic going up and down the canal in boats, and most striking of all, no cars. The cars In the parking lot with the release slips on were owned by people who were staying in the city, and before they left, they had to clear these slips. As usual in tourist oriented cities, we had just stepped onto the bank when a man came running toward us jabbering all the time. ' I still catch only part of what is said to me in Italian, but after slowing his speech down, I understood he had a gondola, and would take us for a ride for 2400 lira ($4.00) an hour. I didnt get the hour part, and it was a point of debate later on. I had understood him to say 2400 lira total, but anyway, we said okay. This he understood, and before we could say, wait, we were off in the boat. The boats themselves are very ornate, much like old Viking ships, with large pointed bow and a sharp point on the stern. The seats were as comfortable as a sofa, and we thoroughly enjoyed our ride. As we rode along, we saw many attractions. Mostly very old buildings and churches. We saw where Casanova lived; where Lord Byron spent some of his time, and where Richard Wagner had lived. These were most interesting to us, but the most fascinating bit of scenery was a church in the Piazza San Marco, where we saw thousands of pigeons. They are fed in the Piazza at 9 a.m. and at 2 p.m. Italy is filled with large churches with huge domes on them. Inside, of course, they were very colorfully decorated. One has to see them to appreciate their beauty. Around the corner from one, we saw a sign which said, in English. Glass Factory However, I have learned to beware of these signs that are written in English, but the gondola boat ride and all had dulled by sense of caution, and we entered as a lamb to the slaughter. Before we got away, we off-sho- re had spent almost a $100 on glass pieces. To top it all, the gondola had waited, and he was charging by the hour, so, a fool and his money was soon parted." We were really happy with the beautiful glass though, and did not regret buying it. All of the glass shops in Venice do a very thriving business. They sell all kinds and shapes of glass articles: animals, birds, tea sets with gold covering, and vases of many shapes and sizes. I have never seen such beautiful glass things as we saw in these shops. We are going again as soon as we can, but next time we will leave our purse at home. tourist is a special thing, Cause with him he does always A bring A full wallet and mind. an empty The combination mentioned above, Is truly the hustlers very first love, Because of his ability to turn them around. Rodger Martin Undergoes Surgery News from the bedside of Rodger Martin, a surgical patient in the Salt Lake Veteraris Hospital, are that he is convalescing slowly from an operation for stomach ulcer, performed Friday of last week. Rodger was stricken on Thursday, and taken to the hospital by Mrs. Martin. His condition was serious, due to hemorhage, 6 hours in the operating room, blood transfusions and oxygen. Rodger is employed in the registration department at the Salt Lake post office. s Farm Census Workers Named Census takers for the Sanpete-Seviarea in the 1959 Census of Agriculture have been appointed, and will begin an intensive training course on November 4th, in preparation for the start of the field canvass on November 7th, it was announced today by Crew Leaderr Mrs. Louise B.

Cen-terfiel- d; Rock Attack Breaks School Lunch Windows long-rang- y, n; Charges were expected to be filed this week placing the blame for the breaking of 16 windows in the school lunch room in Salina. Marshall Beason Burr and the State Juvenile Country Probation Officer, Harold Thompson, were working on the case, and had uncovered several important clues that pointed to the guilty parties. The attack on the building Thursday night, when rocks were thrown through the oc-cur- 16 windows. The stones were found on the floor Friday morning, and the case turned over to police officers. A week previous, entry had been gained to the Salina Elementary School, and some damage done to books and equipment, as well as teachers desks being rifled. Destruction of public property is a serious offense, and carries a stiff penalty, stated the investigating officers. |
