It will soon be a year (September 2) since he was shot while trying to stop a stolen car.

Everyone seemed pleased with the idea of building him a new home and were eager to do their part to help in any way possible when the time came. Many of these folks have put in considerable time and effort and money and are happy with the project. Many others have had good intentions but somehow just havent gotten around to doing anything yet. According to the reports from those in charge the time to do something is NOW.

Awards are given for the most improved yard, the best back yard and the best all around yard. Previous winners are not eligible, but are complimented for their continuous efforts. Judges appreciate knowing of places that should be visited, since there are many lovely yards in Payson. Anyone desiring a yard judged should contact Arch Williams, Chairman of the contest. Winners will be announced during Harvest Days. ATTENTION: Services of the Payson City mowing machine are available to local citizens at the rate of $3.50 per hour.
