He pointed out that everything up to this point has "When we played Arizona State, they had to pay an extra $5800 for control. You can't take this out of a tight athletic budget and survive.

American Fork's Annual Cleanup Set April 11-18 Springville From Man (Continued Page 1) AMERICAN FORK The annual Cleanup Week was set as April 11 to 18 by Councilman Rodney Turner following the first meeting of the American Fork Beautification Council.

A color slide program is to be prepared by the committee, which will show the areas of the community where special effort will be needed to bring the property un to the desired standards of beautification.

Sunday night some friends drove by the sign and happened to see it. They told one of Lonna's roommates, and she reported to "The Wild Bunch." At 10 p.m., after the report came in, all the girls piled i into a car and drove down to see their valentine. It was everything they expected it to be.

And where will all this end? When Lonna was asked if she and Capt. Clarkson were engaged, replied hopefully, "Not yet." On March 14, Lonna will be traveling to Japan and other countries with the BYU Program Bureau, and just by chance, Capt. Clarkson happens to be taking his leave in Japan at the same time Lonna will be there. Maybe then the "not yet" will be more definite. Utah Obituaries SALT LAKE CITY -Harold E.
