Peterson talk-ed about growth in the district and said he expects it to con-tinue at the rate of about 400 students a year. He said the district has grown at that rate for several years. An elemen-tary school holds about 400 students he said. Dr. Peterson cited a trend toward increased enrollments in grades below the fourth grade. "This is the thing that frightens me," he said. Currently, some buildings in the district are overcrowded because of the rapid growth rate and school building funds are committed for at least the next two years, he said. The superintendent has not-ed that enrollment usually falls off in the higher grades. District officials also discuss-ed the possibility of double-in- g some sixth grades into jun-ior high schools.

All members are urged to be present. Utilities Ask Change in Law for Rate Increases Sure whether or when it would pay interest, or in what amount The same is true for utilities." He said inflation was erod-ing the earnings of utilities be-low that allowed under regul-ation, that the slow process of rate hearings was further ag-gravating the situation and that the resulting low earnings "can and have rendered utiliity se-curities unmarketable to inves-tors." The new legislation recom-mended by Mr. Kastler would permit utility rate increases ot become effective closer to the time utility costs go up, "sub-ject at a later period to the review of the (Public Service) Commission, followed by re-funds to customers if any part of the increase is uniustified." PROVO New legislation to permit utility rate increases to become effective in advance of hearing, subject to refund if later procedures find this to be warranted, should receive prior-ity consideration by the Utah legislature to avoid in this ar-ea the potential deterioration or loss of utility service that is now threatening certain areas of the east. This was the thrust of a pre-sentation made by B. Z. Kast-ler, president of Mountian Fuel Supply Company, and two oth-er Mountain Fuel officials, at a meeting of Utah legislators and legislative candidates held Tuesday at Provo. A similar presentation and recommenda-tion was made to legislators several weeks ago by Utah Power and Light Co. Also speaking at the meet-ing were John Crawford Jr., senior vice president, finance, and R. P. Work, vice president of consumer and public affairs. Mr. Work cited Mountain Fuels good gas supply and rel-atively low prices, as well as the economy of natural gas as compared with other fuels, he said failure to obtain the capit-al required to construct new facilities "would reduce the supply of gas and force citi-zens of Utah to pay more for the gas they get as well as the higher prices of alternate ener-gy." He also advocated new legislation to speed up the y process. Mr. Kastler said swift regul-atory action was needed to counter a pending crisis in the utility industry "the loom-ing inability of utilities to at-tract enough money from in-vestors to continue building the utility plant necessary to serve the expanding population and to maintain adequate service for existing customers." "To be able to attract new investor dollars u'Jiities must be able to ear:, a reasonable profit or return from their util-ity 'business," he continued.

Vikings Drop Tough One Last Friday to Am. Fork by Jack Hill Undefeated American Fork put together a grinding ground attack with a swarming defense to defeat the home team Vik-ings 20-1- 4 Friday afternoon in the Region Six opening game for both fine squads. Neither team could score in the first period. The American Fork ground-oriente- d game sud-denly went to the air and Q.B. Ted Lewis found motion man Brian Hansen alone on the side-line as the Vikes were caught in a pass coverage mistake and Hansen went 40 yards for the T.D. A 15 yard penalty on the P.A.T. forced another try from the 18 which fell short, giving A.F. a 6-- 0 lead. The Viking offense failed to generate anything on the next drive and in fact produced but 24 yards in the first half. Tony Anderson, Caveman running back, scored for A.F. on a d sweep to post the halftime score of 13-- Some "words of encourage-ment" were uttered in the loc-ker room at half time and the Vikes were eager to get the ball. It was AF's choice how-ever and they elected to re-ceive and drove 82 yards for a 20-- 0 lead. Ted Lewis carried for the T.D. on a well executed option play. A short kick, returned 5 yards by Viking Kent Prest-wic- h gace P.G. good field posi-tion on the 33. Quarterbacks Ron Moosman and Bruce Mur-doc- k teamed to throw a 50 yard "flea-flicker- " pass to Brad Hardy. Six plays later, Dave Wright skirted left end for the T.D. John Goodman's kick was good to cut the Caveman lead to 20-7- . P.G. scored in the fourth quarter on a d pass play Moosman to Hardy. Hardy made a good catch and a twist-ing run to get into the end zone. Goodman's kick was good and the score stood at 20-1- 4 for A.F. Hometown fans and players wanted the ball again but it was to be A.F.'s ball game and they controlled the ball for the last 3 minutes to preserve the earned victory. Statistics P.G. A.F.
