Pic. shows only part of area. Bayly Manufacturing Com-pany is just completing its 7th year in Pleasant Grove. The company, which manufactures men's, women's and boy's leis-ure apparel, started producing pants in Pleasant Grove in February of 1963. This plant is the latest and most modern of the five plants which make up the production facilities of Bayly. Other plants are located in Visalia and San-ger, California, Yakima, Wash-ington and Greeley, Colorado. Together Bayly plants pro-duce nearly 10,000,000 pair of pants yearly. The Pleasant Grove plant manufactures the top line for Bayly and ships garments thru-ou- t the United States. It will account for over 1,000,000 pair tills year. Individual employee earnings have grown at a rapid pace. The average sewing machine operator is now earning 45 more than she did in 1963. The figure will reach 65 in 1972 with additional increases in wages between now and then. In January of this year Bayly's employees and their depend-ents were provided with one of the most comprehensive life, health, and major medical in-surance plans available in the industry. Bayly is duely proud of the skills and attitudes of their 230 operators at the Pleasant Grove plant. The recently ad-opted motto "People Are Our Most Valuable Asset" stems from managements realization of the vital part its employees play in their company's suc-cess. It was computed that the av-erage sewing machine operator at Bayly's uses up 7,000,000 yards of thread, and handles approximately 180,000 garments each year. Bayly is also re-garded in the industry as a quality producer. Many of their garments are sold in J. C. Penney stores throughout the country. The management and em-ployees at Bayly would like to extend an invitation to inter-ested groups in the area to visit in their factory and observe one of the most interesting in-dustries in our nation, in action : If A . .. r k l - Hi' H PRESSING PROBLEM Pants pile up ready for pressing after being sewed and inspected at Bayly Manufacturing.

I 'A V .N : "BANK OF PLEASANT GROVE BURNED" Rampag-ing demonstrators, protesting the 'capitalistic establishment' burned Bank of Pleasant Grove to a skeleton last Tuesday night, while outnumbered pol-ice and firemen watched help-lessly. Police from other North Utah County communities and High-way Patrolmen were called in as about 500 protestors added fuel to the holacaust by throw-ing Molotov cocktails into the raging flames. Then a solid phalanx of 100 helmeted officers swept thru-ou- t Main Street and the ad-jacent community. Retreating protestors threw rocks and bottles at oncoming officers, injuring several and hospitalizing four. The demonstrators said they were protesting America's in-volvement in foreign wars and the "capitalistic establishment" which financed them. And also police repression of student dis-sent. One demonstrator said that the bank was under siege "because it was there and that it was the biggest cap-italistic establishment around." Police said that the arson-ists were largely outside agi-tators and students from North Utah County high schools and older students from Alpine Jr. College. The outbreak and resultant fire, followed a Junior College campus speech Tuesday after-noon by Mike Kerensky, de-fense attorney in the recent University of Utah riot trials. Following that trial Kerensky was sentenced to 29 months jn jail for contempt of court. He is currently free on bail. Does that sound absurd, un-likely and ridiculous, ladies and gentlemen? Well sirs and mad-ams, the foregoing is exactly what could happen in the not too distant future, unless all Americans individually and col-lectively, apply the brakes. And not that we have not had warning. About 15 years ago, a national president of the American Legion was speaking at a convention in Atlanta, Ga., The theme of his speech was "The Encroaching Menace of Communism." He told of how the master plan of the Moscow hiarchy in cluded infiltration of all Amer- - ican institutions, includjng lab-or, industry, education, com-munications, government, reli-gion, sports, and recreation. He pointed out that the Com-munistic infiltrators would con-centrate principally on the youth jn the areas of immoral-ity, drug abuse, campus and educational institutional upris-ings, anti-militar- y dissent and so on. And not forgetting the adults, the Master Plan includes infil-terni- g and debauching the courts and undermining the Amerjcan free enterprise and capitalistic system, he said. All one need to do in order to realize how far the ideals of the Master Plan have been achieved, is to read a current daily paper, watch television or listen to radio. The Commun-istic project to "take over Am-erica by force and violence " is well advanced. Let me remind those who stjll believe that "It can't hap-pen in Utah," that it is hap-pening. Only a few days ago, the President of the University of Utah gave tacit consent to Jer-ry Rubin to address a student assembly on campus. Mr. Rub-in, bearded and bare-cheste-was then out on bail as a de-fendant in the "Chicago--7 Trial" for. inciting riot at the 1969 Democratic National Con-vention. During his U of U address, Rubin reportedly called Presi-dent Nixon a "pig" and referr-ed to the Salt Lake City jail as a "pigsty." He was invited to speak on campus by the Students for Democratic Soc-iety and other far-le- ft groups. Don't know how many young American people have been ar-rested during recent years for participating actively jn riots. Don't know either, how many of them have been given more than a slap on the wrist by our weak-knee- d courts. However, something must be done. This column suggests sending the young criminals to U.S. La-bor Camps, like their Commun-ist masters maintain, when they destroy property, injure or murder persons or resist of-ficers in the performance of their duty. Let the punishment fit the crime. Seem harsh? The space in this column is open to anyone having a better plan to suggest. So long 'til Thursday. Industry develops in Pleasant Grove Area "Chance versus planning might well be the key by which we develop our community," according to Harvey Smith, lo-cal businessman member of the Industrial Development committee. Mr. Smith went on to say if we develop the idea that we will get our share when industry and related bus-iness comes to Utah, we are taking a chance. But, with the establishment of an industrial park and a functioning business development committee, we are following the idea of pro-gressive planning. Two new industries have been built and located in the park during the year. Despite such progress we can't say the econ-omy is booming or that we should relax our efforts to at-tract more new industry and new jobs. Now is your opportunity to contribute individually to the financial fund for further de-velopment of our facilities. In March, someone will call on you to collect your contribu-tion. Make sure you are on the side of progress. The business development committee has received a let-ter from a local farmer and his wife expressing their en-dorsement of this project. They stated that if at some time in the future this would give one of their grandchildren a job opportunity, they would be most happy. A check for $50 was enclosed. Our mayor and city council endorse and support this indus-trial development and express that our future somewhat hing-es on our ability to grow and develop under a planned pro-gram. Pleasant Grove has a repu-tation of being conservative with its money and progress-ive with its ideas. Let's com-bine the two and invest in our future. Fireside Postponed Due to conditions beyond the control of those responsible for organizing the special fireside originally scheduled for Fri-day evening, March 6, at the Timp Stake House, this fireside wil be postponed until a later date. William Koerner was the speaker scheduled, and if plans work out, he will be scheduled for a later date. Viking Wrestlers Take Fourth Place in State Meet Last Week ,- -'' V'i ( V A.

City Attorney Noall Wootton presented amendments to the city dog ljcense ordinance, whereby late license payers would be charged an extra $5 The changes will be reviewed at the next meeting. Police Chief Mike Ferre re-ported on the February activ-ities of the police department. He reported on several break-in- s and burglaries during the month. Chief Ferre and Attorney Wootton suggested changes in several of the city traffic ordi-nances. The councjl authorized Mr. Wootton to proceed with the suggested changes.
