Show Council Holds Regular Session Last Tuesday, Various Business Items Tuesday evening, Oct. 15 all members of the city council met at regular session. Mayor Cornell Haynie discussed the recent meeting with the Tim-panog- Planning Agency which is an organization en-tered into with the cities of Pleasant Grove, American Fork and Alpine and Lehi. He repor-td- e that the apparent prob-lems which were discussed at the last meeting had been re-solved and that the agency will continue to function as or-iginally proposed. Mr. and Mrs. Gary Carson met with the council to re-quest approval of a home de-velopment in the east part of the city near the aqueduct. To be able to develop this area would require annexation to the city and also city services to be provided. Mr. Carson in-dicated that heq would deed to the city a 56 foot street from 1400 East to the proposed home site. This would then comply with city ordinances. He was asked to meet with the planning commission to work out the details for this development. Frank Slaven and Harry Dare, representing the Pleas-ant Grove Kiwanis Club, met with the council to express support to the council in par-ticipating in civic activities. They asked if there were some areas of service that the club could assist the council during the year. Possible areas of in-volvement mentioned were as-sistance in the program, raising funds for the purchase of a new ambulance, city beautification, participa-tion in the community progress program, and the community housing program. The Kiwanis Club were then thanked for their interest, and it was also noted that they had always been active in provid-ing service and are presently working to repair the log cab-in on 100 East. Councilman Ford West dis-cussed with the council the problem of improper turning on main street. He suggested that concrete slabs be used to form islands in the center of the road to prevent turning movements and to stop cars that might roll from east to west side of the road. The council voted to review this matter and reach a decision at the next council meeting. The matter of a property dis-pute at the Wade Springs prop-erty was discussed. It was rec-ommended that this be referred to the city attorney for review. Mrs. Ed Smith and Mrs. Murlene Loveridge met with the council to discuss the prob-lem of waste water running from the state road by the Purple Turtle west to the Gen-eva Road. Prior to develop-ment on the triangular piece of property between highway 91 and Geneva Road, there was an irrigation ditch that car-ried this water to a ditch on the west side of the road. This ditch has now been covered (Continued on page 8) "Pleasant Grove, the Most Beautifully Situated City in Utah County" VOL.

Fire Restriction Order Rescinded On October 10 Paul Sjoblom, State Forester announced today that the Statewide and Wasatch Front Fire Restriction Orders were being rescinded at 12:01 a.m. on Oct. 10, 1974. The restric-tion orders have been in effect since June and were implemen-ted due to the extreme fire danger which has plagued Utah this year. Officials of the Forest Ser-vice, Bureau of Land Manage-ment and National Park Ser-vice join the State Forester in expressing appreciation to the public for their cooperation in avoiding a more disastrous fire season. The fire season for all agencies was the worst in re-cent history, but without the fine cooperation by the public the suppression costs and dam-ages to our natural resources would have been tremendous. The Statewide restriction was unique and had never before been placed into effect. The rains received recently lowers the fire danger in most areas of the State. Hunters Hunters and other outdoor us-ers are urged to be careful with open fires (because there are still some small local areas that did not receive as much moisture as others. Unattended warming fires are always a hazard and are illegal. All fire officials are express-ing relief that the dry, hazard-ous situation has been allev-iated and are pleased that out-door users can now safely use open campfires. - ' v - y;-- --I' fH , ,i ' i HANDOFF Ron Moosman (10) hands off to Fullback Ted Karren (33).

Vikings Now 2-- 2 After Springville Loss, Play Spanish Fork Here Today By Dell Young Excitement was running high in Viking land last Wednesday as the Vikes traveled south to meet undefeated Springville. The outcome was not as ex-pected: Springville 28, P.G. O. Springville kicked off and it looked as if P.G. was ready, when on the first play Dale Wright ran for 11 yards and a first down. The drive halted and the two teams exchanged punts. A "spearing" call on the Vikes gave the Devils a 15 yard boost and after P.G. had punted again, the Devils were in good field position. Two 'beautiful runs by John North moved the ball inside the five but PG's defen e held and they took over on the 15. Disaster struck as the Vikes fumbled on the first play and with the 'big break Devil Q.B. Rick Thorn hit North for the TD with 8 minutes remaining in the second quarter. After receiving the kickoff P.G.'s Ted Karren ran for 20 but once again the drive was halted and John Goodman's 51 yard field goal was short. The Devils then went 71 yards in 3:37 with Thorn again hitting North for the T.D. Both PAT's were good and Spring-ville carried a 14-- 0 lead at the halftime. P.G. showed life in the sec-ond quarter when Ron Moos-man hit first Brad Hardy then Kaylon Whiteley with 15 yard completions but a lost fumble stopped the Vikes on the 14 yard line. Springville sustained a drive but then punted. On a 4th and long yardage situation, P.G. faked the punt and Wright car-ried right end for 18 yards. Moosman was dropped attemp-ting to pass and again the drive was stopped. Thorn hit split end Bliss for a gain and then threw his third T.D. pass of th egame to move the score to 21-- The devils last score came late in the game and it was North carrying on a reverse from the six yard line. Overall there was just too much Rick Thorn and John North. Springville executed well and the Vikes did not. The Devils deserved to win this one. Statisics PI.

The 1973 Legislature, in set-ting these dates, also levied a tax of one dollar per tire or one cent per stud, to pay for some of the damage the studs do to Utah highways. The use of tire chains "of reasonable proportions" is per-mitted when required for safe-ty because of snow, ice or oth-er conditions tending to cause a vehicle to skid. Snow tires without studs may be used at any time, and use of snow tires and chains may be required under partic-ularly severe conditions. Rad-ial tires are not acceptable as a substitute for snow tires where a requirement for snow tires is posted. Public Library Hours Are Changed There will be a change in the hours for the Public Li-brary according to Mrs. Dru-cill- a Smith librarian.
