He had nothing but high praise for her contribution there. Conspicuously absent was what was once the traditional queen robe. Now might be a good time to place it and photos of past royalty in the city hall for all to share, lest it be lost as too much of our history has. I would like to take the time to examine the recent session of the Utah Legislature and particularly the new child restraint bill but it will have to wait a week or two. Pleasant Grove residents have more important tilings to attend to just now. We need to find a good candidate for the Alpine District board of Education to replace Dan Fugal. Come next January Dan will have finished his second term on the Alpine Board of Education. During that time he presided as president of the board and helped guide the district through some of its most turbulant years. During that time Dan tells me that he has gained a profound respect for the people involved in education. His voice has been one of reason amid a flury of controversy. He has followed in the fine tradition of the Fugal family in giving unselfish service for the clear benefit of those he was elected to serve. Certainly there must be someone in the Pleasant Grove area who has these same qualities and is willing to serve for the betterment of the children of Pleasant Grove. Little else affects us more than the quality of schools where our children are educated. like city government actions school board actions are what really make the difference in ultimately affecting the children in our area. Sure, federal and state educational policy affects us but not nearly as much as the votes that are made every two weeks by the board of education. The filing deadline is June 27. There is no filing fee. While Dan still has nine months to go I don't think it would be out of line to say thanks and good luck for the next nine months. tt 3nf , ; , yF K "zF r? ' ' v .
