Pleasant. Previously the North and South Sanpete School boards had voted In separate sessions to place the Issue of whether the two districts would be combined and thus become eligible for a state allocation of $1,800,000 before the voters of the county to decide. The North Sanpete board decided after the special session last week to withdraw its support from the proposal until the board members have a chance to hold meetings In their precincts to gain the sentiment of the public. The board would then vote whether or not to submit the matter to the people at their September session, which will be too late to place the matter on the ballot. Supt. Winston T. Gleave said that the South Sanpete Board of Education Is very disappointed that the action was reversed and that the chances are now slim that the voters will decide the fate of the consolidation. jaunt lures Six-mi- le Aug. 26 two-wheele- rs If you see an army of bicycles heading your way on Saturday morning . . . dont panic . . . its all being done in the name of fair play.

The accident took place at approximately 10:30 p.m., according to Sanpete County Sheriffs Deputy Kennard Anderson who investigated the mishap. The accident occurred about three miles north of Manti on Highway 89. According to Sheriff Anderson, the mishap took place when Lana Kay Draper, 17, of Ephraim, was headed south toward Manti in a 1964 Ford Falcon owned by Delno Draper. She apparently hit a slick spot in the highway and she lost control of the auto. It left the highway, rolling over twice before coming to rest in the borrow pit. It had rained a short time before. Sheriff Anderson noted, and the new pavement on the highway was somewhat slick. Miss Draper was rushed to the Sanpete LDS Hospital by Wally Buchanan. She was given a checkup and then released. The auto was a total loss, Sheriff Anderson reported. Assisting with the Investigation were Ephraim police officers Wan Rasmussen and Bob Rasmuson and Manti Deputy Marshal Tom Maylett. - - - Local students graduate in BYU rites two-a-d- fairgrounds on Wednesday.

The Sanpete County Commissioners voted In their regular business session held the first part of August to raise the countys tax levy from 13.50 mills to 14.50 mills. The relief to the taxpayers came In the form of the reduction In the state uniform school fund levy which was dropped from 7.20 mills to 4.60 mills. All towns and cities within Sanpete County maintained the same levy as they requested last year. The two school districts also used identical requests from last year. The levies requested by the cities for 1972 are as follows: Falrview, 18.00 mills; Mt. Pleasant, 17.00 mills; Spring City, 10.00 mills; Moroni City, 25.00 mills; Fountain Green City, 24.00 mills; Wales Town, 22.00 mills; Mayfield, 16.00 mills; Gunnison, 20.00 mills; Centerfleld, 19.00 mills; Fayette, 15.50; Ephraim, 20.00 mills; Manti, 23.00 mills, and Sterling, 12.00 mills. The South Sanpete School District requested 47.20 mills as opposed to 42.50 mills asked for by the North Sanpete School District. The Sanpete Water Conservancy District maintained its .50 mill levy and the Central Utah Water Conservancy District stayed with its 1.00 mill request. The raise by the county and the reduction In the state uniform school fund levy brought the combined mill levies up to the following point (last years figure is in parenthesis): Falrview City, 81.10 (82.70); Mt. Pleasant City, 80.10 (81.70); Spring City, 73.10 (74.70); Moroni City, 88.10 (89.70); Fountain Green City, 87.10 (88.70); Wales Town, 85.10 (86.70); Mayfield Town, 83.80 (85.40); Gunnison City 87.80 (89.40); Centerfleld Town, 86.80 (88.40); Fayette Town, 83.30 (84.90); Ephraim City, 87.80 (89.40); Manti City, 90.80 (92.40), and Sterling Town, 79.80 (81.40). The school districts are set at 67.80 (69.40) for South Sanpete School District and 63.10 (64.70) mills for the North Sanpete District. Youre invited Its a family affair Hi, Im Kayla Paskett, and Im six months old. I dont have much to say yet, but if you should happen to ask me why Im all dressed up in my Western duds, Id tell you that Im on my way to the Sanpete Fair with my eight County brothers and sisters and Dad and Mom Paskett. Ive heard them saying that years fair Is a family affair, so you can bet your this boots Im taking advantage of that and using It as a gimmick to get me to my very first county fair. Sounds to me like It is sure going to be a ball. Carnival rides, rodeo, races, livestock shows, magical acts, skydlvers and all the other fun things that go with a county fair. And boy, just think, the whole family can get In on a family ticket for $6.00. Sure sounds like a good deal to me. See you at the fair , . . V Is |
