The play, 'Hello Out There, by William Saroyan, is directed by Dr. Charles Metten A Young and Kenyon Olsen. The KBYU television show is being prepared for national education TV release this fall or winter. Ronald Hall of Payson plays one of the leading parts, that of the husband of a young woman who has accused a man of rape. The action takes place in the jail of a small Texas town. And why was the Payson jail chosen for the filming? It is old in style yet large enough to accomodate the crew and cameras. Provo and Orem jails were too modern, several others were too small. Paysons was just right. So, for one who has never seen the inside of the Payson jail an opportunity will come this fall or winter, when the play is aired over channel 11.

The increased use of ground water in 1969 was partly due to a dry summer in some irrigation areas. Even though precipitation for the year was above normal in most of the State, some irrigated areas received less than normal amounts of rain during the growing season. Water levels in observation wells rose throughout the State from March 1969 to March 1970 as a result of the net annual increase in precipitation.
