Lori Lyon, daughter of Gary and Marilyn Lyon of Sterling, is second attendant. Runners-u- p in the competition were Laura Wakefield, daughter of James and Charlene Wakefield, Fairview, and Christine Brewer, daughter of Lonnie and Patricia Brewer, Spring City.

Cass Edmunds and John Christensen both told the council their personnel wanted to help keep costs from continually rising to all the citizens. City employees received a 6 percent raise last year, the first in a few years, though the index rate for adjustments last year was 13 percent nationally. Many budget meetings and hearings will be held by the council before the final budget is adopted June 30. Carolyn McNeil and Ned Wilson of U.A.M.P.S. (Utah Association of Municipalities Power System), of which Mt. Pleasant is a member, explained why the present electrical power source is the best deal the city is ever going to get. The C.R.S.P. (Colorado River Storage Project) water lower lease (from Lake Powell and Flaming Gorge) is expired, so the only sources of power now are the Hunter II plant operating in Emery, and future plants still in the design stages, the Bonanza owned by Deseret G. & T. in Vernal, and the Intermountain power plant in Delta. cost-of-livi- Students of month get Chamber awards MT.

Dr. Ellefsen said, David is one of those students who constantly produces. He is the type of student every teacher wants and is an example of the very best kind of student the district produces, he said.

Costs per kilowatt at present estimates show the increases: C.R.S.P., $1.66 per KW; Hunter II, $18.92 KW; IPP and Bonanza, $29 more per KW. Its expensive, but a better dealin the long run, to have your dwn municipal power department, Wilsqp said. He said the city already has reached its maximum-allowepower a couple of times this winter and that with future growth, the 1,208 kilowatts available by contract to the city from Hunter II will be constantly used, and power from y other plants will be needed. The only alternatives, he said, are to buy power from Utah Power & Light 5 Co. without the benefit of cooperating with other cities, or to have brown-outwhereby power would be cut off in A, different sections. of town for shortly times to keep power costs down, tftp6v having to buy less power as growth requires that more be bought The council rejected both ideas. McNeil said interest rates raise the costs of power more than any other factor, and U.A.M.P.S. is dissatisfied with the present cost of coal for the plant, which mines its own, and is putting pressure on them to become more efficient. She said Mt. Pleasant is lucky, to have a plant that is up and running!, with fixed costs per kilowatt that can be budgeted for, and that the city no longer will be charged for the full allotmenLof electricity even if it is not used. d s, JOIN THE IVlllS 8: Lessons will be given by Diane Chiever volleyball, drama, choir, as a cheer David is the son of leader, and serves on the Robert and Ruth Graham committee of Spring City. disciplinary made up of students and faculty.
