School will be out at noon on Friday, Oct. 22, and all day Monday Oct 25. Cindy Grass and her committee planned and presented an assembly on Thursday, Oct. 14. It featured imitiation of both seventh and nineth graders, imitations performed by Bob Camara, and a high school "pounding group" led by Nathan Carrol and Evan Kofford. I wonder if the drums servived. Most of the students liked it very much. The students wish to thank Cindy for the good assemblies she has presented this year. The P.T.A. and Student Council are planning a Halloween dance and party at the Junior High School Friday, Oct 29, 1976 from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. The dance will feature radio disc jockeys from station KPGR. Ad-mission is 50 cents each. Refrishments will be sold and it should be a fun time for all. Tues, Oct 19, 1976, the seventh grade students had a real initiation. They took Mental Maturity tests. Now they probaly all feel extra smart of like "mentals". The tests were conducted by Miss Lendt, school counselor, with the teachers acting as helpers. Most of the lawn around the school has finally been planted. It's getting so cold though some may never come up. It was covered by sheets of ice early this morning (Oct. 19). It will be nice when the lawn has grown enough so the students can play on it. We are proud of our new junior high school and hope the students will take good care of it. INTERVIEWED Von Keetch, Vernon Romney, John Gourley, and front, Tammy Ellis, Mark Bonham. Mr: Romney was interviewed by Debate Club officers. Vernon G Romney, At-torney General, who is running for governor of Utah stopped at Pleasant Grove High School to see the Viking football game with Spanish Fork be interviewed by the debate students, and toured KPGR Radio Station. Mr. Romney used to work for the FCC and was very impressed with Pleasant Grove High's radio facilities.

Black Talks 'Bats' Hal Black from the B.Y.U. Zoology Department came to Lindon kindergarten and took the children on an imaginary bat hunt. A real bat net was stretched across an imaginary stream to snare the bats coming down for a drink. The lights were turned out to create a night background. Dr. Black put on his hip boots, his miner's hat with a light and a pair of special gloves for handling the captured bats. Because hats are generally hibernating at this time, Dr. Black brought a dozen stuffed bats that he had previously caught. As the children closed their eyes to help realize the necessary darkness of night Dr. Black cast a bat into the net and then all examined their newly captured animal. Along with the realistic imaginary excursion many facts were related and many questions answered. The children were amazed to know that bats can be found in the attics of older buildings as well as caves and old woodpecker holes. The Kindergarten teachers both testify that they never have had a visitor that kept the children's attention as Dr. Black did. All agreed that children need more exposure to this kind of experience.

A young fellow stopped by the other day and had a really great deal for me. I was to give his wares to our customers, free of charge to me of course. I stated that I wasn't in-terested. "You mean you don't want $1,000 worth of merchandies free?" I said, "Hey, fella, if you get something for nothing you just haven't got- - : ten the bill yet." He was indignate and said he didn't know what I was talking about. i This is the same way that I feel about all the things that are promised in the election campaigns. If we get something it's going to cost i us. When someone says I j want to help the poor and the needy, they are in reality saying, "You're gonna help me help the poor and the needy." I was reading an article the other day from a California paper. The author said that he felt that we are already giving our all and then some. Probably the greatest problem in this country is our own greed. We can be com-pared to being caught in the monkey trap. A jar is filled with goodies, but the opening to the jar is only large enough for the hand to go in and out unclenched. Get the picture? When we grasp for the goodies and hang on, then we can't struggle free from the jar. When we strike for higher wages we get caught in the trap. Price increases on the product offset the wage in-crease thus we are struggling constantly to rid ourselves of the trap. If we as Americans weren't so greedy and self indulgent we might be able to shake the trap. Cut back on the luxuries that we feel we owe our-selves. Try to pay cash when we can. We have become a society of borrowers. A friend of mine says, "borrow all you can, live on someone else's money." But I can't find anyone else to make the payments. I don't believe in promises, we (each and every one of us) When we strike for higher wages we get caught in the trap.

I don't believe in promises, we (each and everyone of us) are the cause of what is hap-pening in our country. When we buy $8,000 pickups and $12,000 automobiles and $56 dresses I don't think there is any help. When we live out of cans and throw away half of that we prove that we have forgotten how to budget. When we buy more soft drinks and ice cream than ma caroni and cheese, how can we be saved? Do you have the answers? I don't. Needs Study . . . Joint Sewer Plant Residents of Alpine, American Fork, Pleasant Grove and Lehi will be asked to vote November 2, on a special bond election to construct a new joint sewage treatment system to serve the four cities. The Timpanogos Special Service District was recently Total cost of the project is approximately $16.3 million, of which 75 percent would be paid by EPA grant funds. The remaining $4.3 million is to be paid by bonds issued by the TimpanogosSpecial Service District. How much will this service cost individual users? This will not raise the tax levey, but will be paid from operating revenues. Average per household sewer charge would be approximately $8.00 per month for each city. This would be much higher if each individual city tried to provide separate services, since EPA funds would not be available to individual cities. Who will control the regional system? A Board of Directors composed of the Mayor and a city councilman from each of the four cities would direct and control the regional sewage treatment system. Are these four communities the only ones facing new stringent State and Federal treatment standards which will require far better treatment than the existing plants are capable of providing? No! Every community in the state will be facing this national problem. As our population increases, we simply must take better measures to take care of our wastes if our environment is to be maintained fit for future generations. In future weeks, details of the regional system will be discussed for your in-formation, organized lor the purpose of establishing a regional sewage treatment plant. Mayors and city coun-cilme- n of the four cooperating communities have formed, with the assistance of Utah County, the Timpanogos Special Service District for the purpose of creating the quai-municip- entity to construct, finance, own and operate a regional treatment plant to treat effluent from each of the four cities by contract. The central treatment plant, if approved by the voters, will be built south of American Fork, with each of the four cooperating com-munities to own and maintain their individual collector systems in each of the various cities. They will cooperatively own the central treatment plant, paying for operation on a pro-rat- a basis for metered effluent which is treated at the central plant. In order to avoid the ex-pense of a separate special election, the voters will decide on the bond issue as one of the issues of the upcoming general election to be held Tuesday, Nov. 2. Construction of the plant will be underway, if approved by the voters, in 1977, with treatment of effluent expected to begin by 1979. In order to acquaint the public with the full proposal, a series of public meetings is planned by each of the separate cities. Alpine city will meet in public hearings on Oct. 19 and 27, while American Fork City will hold a special public hearing on Oct. 29. Dates for the public hearings at Pleasant Grove and Lehi are yet to be an-nounced. A new sewage treatment plant is needed because the existing sewage treatment plants in Lehi, Pleasant Grove and American Fork are over 20 years old and are in poor mechanical condition. The population of the cities has increased beyond the capacity of the plants. Alpine city has not yet constructed a plant and can more profitably hook on to a central plant, rather than building an in- - dividual treatment plant to process effluent from that community. Each of the communities must meet state j and federal standards for sewage treatment. American Party H x s ? s I DELMAR H. REAY For the House of Representatives 1 Meet Leslie D.

EXPERIENCED - KN0WLEDGABLE - QUALIFIED t Forest Service Proposes Resort Area Proposal of resort The original 7,500 acre resort proposed by Wilderness Associates within the Uinta Nationla Forest, East of Provo has been modified. The Forest Service is proposing to permit resort development with in the 4,500 acre area of Rock and Slide Canyons. A resort development east of Provo was first proposed in 1959. A Master plan was submitted by Four Seasons, Inc. to the Uinta National Forest in August 1974, at which time a Forest Service interdisciplinary team con-ducted a deataled study and analysis of that proposal. The data obtained were used in the preparation of the Draft En-vironmental Statement made public April 7, 1976. Following a 90-da- y period of public review, which included two public meetings on May 7, the Forest Service evaluated public comment and is I modification of the riginal Four Seasons' proposal. Facilities and ski runs will be devel ;d on Maple Flat Maple Mountain, First and Second Right Forks of Rock Canyon, Dry Fork, Burnt Foil, and the Northwest slope of Provo Peak. A narrow strip of land on the west face of Maple Mountain will be used for access. Slate Canyon and historic peregrine falcon habitate hab-bee- n eliminated from the development. Among other modifications is the exclusion of the equestrian center, zoo, and areas with unstable soils. Mountain developments would involve four village sites. Maple Flat and Cascade Villages are on National Forest land and subject to Forest Service administration and control. Both the Knoll and Lion Saddle sites are on private land and subject to Utah County control. Maple Flta, the primary develop-ment site, will contain a variety of features, including (Continued on Page 3) |
