LXVIII, No. 6 PLEASANT GROVE, UTAH 84062, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1972 SINGLE COPY 10c .V v rcr:. --v-r FIND LOOT Ken Cahoon and Brent Bullock look over burglary loot found recently in Am erican Fork. Items were taken from Metro-politan Water Co. and also other places in area. Felice Recover Property Stolen $mm Metropolitan Water Co. Several burglary jobs have been cleared up as a result of the investigation conducted by Ken Cahoon, Utah County Sher-iff Deputy and Brent Bullock, of the Pleasant Grove Police Department. An American Fork man was found in posses sion of numerous items recent-ly taken from the Metropolitan Water Co. in Pleasant Grove, and at the same time other it-ems were found which tied in with several other burglaries over the past several months. After completing the investi- - gation complaints and warrants will be issued charging him with specific charges. Also found in the possession ol the suspect were apporxi-matel- y 700 blank checks from a previous burglary. The offic-ers said one of the charges to be brought against the suspect was forgery, so evidently at least one attempt had been made to cash one of the blank checks. Utah County and city police departments are to be compli-mented for their efforts in this and other investigations and fight against crime in the city and county areas. Their coop-eration with each other, and the general upgrading of their departments is a worthwhile effort. Local police are pres-ently engaged, both individual-ly and as a department in tak-ing schooling for proper police techniques and training. With the general increase of crime throughout the nation, our local police departments are trying to meet the chall-enge and curb these threats against our property and poss-essions. Cooperation with them by all interested citizens will make their efforts pay off.

Councilman Cornell Haynie served as mayor pro-te- m in the absence of Mayor Jack Cook, who had asked to be excused. Councilman Mich-ael Vicchrilli was also excused from the meeting because of his work. Art Steele, city general sup-erintendent, met with the coun-cil and gave his monthly report to the council. He stated that outside work projects had been hampered because of the wea-ther but expected necessary work to be done when the wea-- ther becomes btter. Mr. Steele stated that gravel is being hauled to make road repairs on city streets. He said that because of the weather as-phalt patches were not hold-ing and that there is a great need to make street repairs. He also asked that streets be-ing constructed by some divid-ers in the city not be accepted until they can be properly con-structed and improved. He gave examples of such roads and stated that it is best for the city if the subdivided be held responsible for the proper con-struction of these streets rather than placing the repair and construction of these streets on-t- o the city crews. Blaine Gray, street foreman, was also present at the meet-ing and requested the city a uniform curb and gut-ter and sidewalk plan. He said that advanced planning of these improvements and stipul-ated specifications of such re-sults in a more uniform and or-dered appearance than the present policy being followed by the city..

Wrestlers Drop Provo 26 to 1 4 Last Thursday Pleasant Grove Vikings hop-ped all over Provo last Thurs-day night in what was a cruc-cia- l match for the Region IV wrestling crown The Vikings, picked to lose by some, were off to a good start in the lower weights and outlasted the Pro-vo team by a decisive 26 to 14 victory. Coach Darold Henry said af-ter the meet, "some might call us lucky, but we weren't, the kids just wanted to wrestle." Before a packed house the Vikings won the first four vital matches, which both coaches had predicted would be the key to their success, or failure. Sophomore Vaugn Maxfield reversed last year's one-poi-victory by Alan Myrup, and dominated his foe with a 6-- 2 decision. PG's Keith Hooley had a 7-- 5 win over Terry Elli-son, who did put up a good battle. At 115 lbs. Viking Jon Bratt looked tough against defending region champ Kim Daley and gained a 5--2 decision. Marty Christiansen pinned Provo's Mike Last at 122 lbs. In the 129 lb match, Provo got on the scoreboard. Defend-ing state champ Craig Prete and Steve Sanderson, two of the four undefeateds in the meet, continued their personal duel for the fourth time in two seasons with Prete coming out the victor, by 8-- Kevin Christensen got the Vikings back on the scoreboard in the 135 lb. weight by gain-ing a 10-- 2 decision. Scott Ben-nett then got a 9-- 1 decision to put the Vikings farther ahead. The third undefeated grapp-ler- , P.G.'s Dave Phillips, de-fending region champ, was a winner over James Loveless in (Continued on page 6) i i. i j ,o-- GOLDEN WEDDING Mr. and Mrs. Bryant Hicks will be honored at open house Sunday, Feb. 13, for 50th wedding.

Child Pevelpn8iiTeacher Aid Mew Class at 1?. . (rligh School C.D.T.A. (Child Development --Teacher Aid) is a new class at Pleasant Grove High School designed to be relevant to the student's needs and to be a help to the community. The study of this course should lead students to a better understanding of self and others, basic needs of children, desirable attitudes to-ward children, responsibilities of parenthood, incfluences of heredity and environment on the individual. 18 scenior girls are partic-ipating in this program. They set up a pre-scho- at the high school, which is complete with all facilities including outdoor play area. The girls run the pre-scho- ol for 4 and 5 year olds of the community for 2 months - participating in all phases, creative activity, sci-ence, story time, snack and out-door activity. Each semester 22 to 25 young-sters come to the l. It has proved so popular that parents already have their chil-dren enrolled for next year. Not only does the pre-scho-program offer an exciting lear-ning experience for the child, it offers a practical laboratory for the students to study and understand human behavior and learning. By observing and working with young children, they become more aware of the learning that is taking place in social, emotional, intellect-ual and physical areas. After completing their pre-school training these students go out in the field for added experience. Six girls are student teaching at Harrington. Others are wor-king in the elementary schools (kindergarten) at Central, Lin-do- Valley View and Grove-cres- t. Some of the girls travel to work at Orem Pre-scho- and Kiddie Kollege in American Fork. A special thanks goes to the progressive administrators and teachers who are making this program a sucess.
