According to Pleasant (Jrove Police Officer Roger Oslergaard, four of the pigeons were valued al $rlK) each. Value of I lie oilier three is unknown. The theft was reported on Oct. 22. Turnbow Says He's Qualified "I believe (he times call for a strong, determined leader with a conservative economic view," so said Richard (Dick) Turnbow, incumbent candidate for Mayor in Cedar Hills. Turnbow is a certified public ac-countant with almost 10 years ex-perience in a wide variety of businesses. He said that he has learned a great deal which will be invaluable in dealing with the op-portunities, challenges and dif-ficulties ahead. He is presently business manager and treasurer of a large Salt Lake law firm. On the issue of the future of Cedar Hills, he said that he proposes to press forward aggressively on a number of possible alternatives for the town's future. He said that he intends to seek input from as many citizens as possible concerning their feelings about what is best for all of them. "We cannot afford the luxury of pursuing the present course, the police and fire protection costs alone are intolerable," said Turnbow. He further said that the general fund of the town must be realistic about the finances, and that he is in the best position to deal with the immediate and serious financial problems. lie said that there has developed an attitude that disagreement or even a desire to discuss alternatives is somehow disloyal or destructive. "I believe it is important to foster and promote a climate which en-courages free expression, even though this is sometimes painful, the end result is highly desireable. From the Front CUP ll :j Continued from Front Page way they wanted to go." The mayors' plan suggests that ' untreated water instead of treated water be made available to north Utah County by the CUP. According to the plan, cities could use their present sources of high-grad- e municipal water for culinary pur-poses, and obtain untreated project water, if it is needed to supplement those sources, for fire fighting, irrigation and industrial use. According to Mr. Franson, the proposal "raises the question of whether we should put the Alpine aqueduct in or not," He added that the question is now being discussed. He says a major problem is the timing of the new proposal. "Now we have got things to a point where they are ready to go," Mr. Franson said. "But we are trying to be responsive to what people want to do." BOR's rejection of the mayors' plan "'Said that' "'early t ihis-- . aqueduct is critical. There is an urgent need for its completion, and any change at this time would result in a delay of several years." That claim-o- "urgent" need is disputed by several area water ex-perts, and the mayors are slicking to their guns, saying their proposal would accomplish water delivery in a much more economical fashion than current BOR plans. Pleasant Grove Mayor Cornell Haynie has said, "We feel it .can be delivered in a more economical way than it has been planned.

Having decided on the kind I can afford and which will also not be thrown down in disgust by some trick-or-treate- r, it is then a tedious task lo decide how many I will need. It always turns out that we either run out before the trick-or-treate- do or we have enough left over to stock a store. , A most delightful of all the spooks who knock at the door are the little ones about four years old who really know what candy is but haven't learned to be greedy or obnoxious about it yet. I'm not completely converted to junior high and high school students who still make the rounds but I guess if they are brave enough to knock I should be brave enough to give them a treat. I think those parents who patiently walk their little ones around the block so that they will be safe deserve a treat, too. It is the only way that tiny ones should be allowed out because there are a few bullies who will take treats away from children younger than themselves which certainly is a j shame on such a fun night. Of course, of even more concern is road safety with the children. When I ; was growing up a very traumatic thing happened in my life when two six year old boys were killed when hit i by a car while out trick-o- i 'seating. For the older childrei. 'nook alleys and haunted houses around the area are lots of fun. Most of them are designed to raise funds for a good cause which makes it even more fun. As you mothers step onto the rollercoaster which begins this Saturday night, watch for me. I'll be the one bringing up the rear, holding on for deal life, and loving every minute of it. By MARCELLA WALKER Beginning this weekend we will all jump on a giant roller coaster which wdl speedily take us sweeping right through Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years and when the gigantic ride is over we will not only be out of breath but out of money besides. It always seems to me that with Halloween and all its excitement the holiday season seems to begin to come at me so fast that it is all one big blur and I'm not sure who I am or where I'm at when it is all over. Halloween is such a fun time of year around here. Most people are delighted to have all the little spooks come to the door holding forth their bags for more goodies. It is a day that brings out the fun and good in most of us and we look forward to it almost as much as the children. The hardest thing is deciding how much "treat" to plan on. This is followed a close second by my own children who try to tell me what kind of treats I should give. If they had their way everyone would get a 25 cent candy bar or better. With limited funds, I finger bags of candy labeled "Halloween Candy" and wonder which Halloween they Sheep Killed by Dogs Pleasant Grove police and animal control officers are investigating the killing of 18 pregnant ewes by dogs recently. Cody Cullimore, animal control officer, said that the sheep were valued at $1800. They were owned by Leon Hatch, 150 W. 1100 N. Residents are reminded that dogs must not be allowed to roam the streets. It is against the city or-dinance and also leads to incidents such as this, city officials said. Investigation is continuing. |
