The parade begins at 600 East on Center Street and will proceed west, then turn north on University Avenue to end at the Smith Fieldhouse parking lot on 900 North.

High school bands entered include Emery County, Wasatch, Blackfoot, Idaho Valley High, and Highland of Salt Lake City. Six drill teams will also perform. "Dignitaries and special guests will ride in a large collection of old time cars from the Utah area assembled for the parade under the direction of Mrs. JoAnn Losee. Many of the classy American, European, and special cars will be from the Bullock and Losee collection, considered one of the best in America," Mr.

Wilson said. Thousands of students will work on floats this week for the parade. Floats will be judged prior to the parade, with winning float banners carried preceding the selections.

They will meet in the commission chambers as usual, she reminded. The regularly scheduled Provo City Planning Commission meeting, set for 8 p.m.

Wednesday in the Provo City Commission Chambers, has been changed, according to Sally Harding, the commission secretary. The commission has only two items on the agenda this month. The first is a hearing on a proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance to provide for a planned Industrial Commercial and Research Zone as an integrated development. The second is an interpretation of accessory solar energy units as structures which must require all front and side yard setbacks or as utilities which exempts such units from the setback requirements. All planning commission meetings are open to the public and the action taken by the commission is referred to the city commission at their next regular session for approval or disapproval.

Warmer Weather Expected to Last A Springville woman was injured Sunday night when her car left the road and hit a tree, according to Provo City Police. Lori Savage, 22, 236 S. 300 Springville, was driving north on South State Street in Provo when her car crossed the southbound lanes and hit a tree off the shoulder of the highway near 1885 South. The accident report said Miss Savage possibly attempted to avoid hitting something on the roadway when the car left the highway. The right front door of the car hit the tree.

First aid was given by Provo City paramedics, and the victim was transported to Utah Valley Hospital. She was listed in fair condition this morning. year over most of the state.

68 46 70 45 64 34 CAIRO UPI Preident Anwar Sadat says Egypt will cut Israel "down to size" unless it withdraws from all occupied Arab lands and accepts Palestinian demands. The comments were in a speech delivered on Sadat's behalf Monday by State Minister Hamed Mahmoud at a rally in Suez City celebrating an Egyptian victory over an Israeli tank column in the final days of the 1973 October war. Western observers said they believed the hard-line speech was aimed at putting pressure on both the United States and Israel to accelerate the Middle East peace contacts. Sadat said before resorting to war, the Arabs will explore all avenues leading to a peaceful settlement but the Palestine Liberation Organization must participate in the talks, the Israelis must withdraw from all Arab lands and an independent Palestinian state must be created. "If Israel wants to test us again, we will teach her a lesson more cruel than the lesson of yesterday," Sadat's speech said, alluding to what Egypt considers its victory in the 1973 war.

"We will cut her down to size." "We seek peace, but if it is not realized, then fighting will become imperative," the speech said. "Our men have not laid down their weapons and are keeping their finger on the trigger." Sadat said he was raising an "olive branch with one hand, but the other. carries a weapon." Israel opposes PLO participation at the Geneva Middle East peace talks and the establishment of a Palestinian state on its borders. And Prime Minister Menahem Begin has vowed Israel will not withdraw from the West Bank of Jordan. Sadat was in Cairo attending the first joint session of the Egyptian and Sudanese parliaments.

The two nations endorsed a "political and economic integration" program in 1974 and signed a joint defense pact in mid-1976. The aim of the pacts, officials say, is the eventual political unification of the two nations. Provo Beats Governor City money is directly involved in the resort. "But it is such a controversial issue, it would be good to know how the people feel about it," Mr. Heaton continued.

He referred to a recent poll which showed the people have mixed feelinps about the project, with the majority in favor of it. Mrs. Meecham pointed out the city is already committed to the project. "There is no proof of what will happen if it is built," Dr. Heaton said.

"As more non-LDS people come in, the LDS influence, would of course be reduced." Mass Transit Regarding the mass transit system between Provo and Orem, Mrs. Meecham said it needs more research so it doesn't serve one faction, but the entire community. Dr. Heaton commented, "we will need it one day." According to Dr. Heaton, the transit would be funded three quarters by sales tax and one quarter by fares, at a charge of 25 cents per ride.

"There is federal and state money available to purchase the initial equipment, and it would cost about a million dollars a year to keep running. There would be four major stops," he said, "at BYU, the Provo Temple, downtown Provo and the Orem shopping mall." "Sooner or later it will be a reality, when the people are willing to pay for it," he said. Twenty minutes would be the most any person would have to wait for a bus, Dr. Heaton stated. Traffic problems, such as at BYU in the mornings, would be reduced, he said.

Both candidates said they realize Provo's downtown businesses need help to successfully compete with Orem's malls. "I'm all for encouraging small clean industry," Mrs. Meecham said. "We don't have ground for large industry, and we need those which are good for the environment." Business Crcwth Mr. Heaton said, "we need a program to solicit business and provide space for them.

I'd like to see an Academy Square, because a mall would start to keep business in Provo. We're told the reason Orem got the University Mall is because there was no suitable land in Provo, and that we couldn't afford to offer land at the price Orem did. The city (Provo) wanted to build their own building there." Mrs. Meecham said, "Orem has its problems, too, because their develop ment is not too well organized." She commented that some of their growth was not well planned. "We must keep organized and compatible to the quality of life we want in Provo," she said.

Dr. Heaton agreed. "Provo is gradually regaining from the slump it had a few years ago," she said, referring to the time the mall was first opened in Orem. She cited Academy Square as being a future help to Provo, as well as the Garden Mall. "The Garden Mall will be built on the diagonal at 1200 North," she said.

"It is acreage the city developers own, and the new road from 2230 North into there will open that area up. This will bring a tax base to Provo that has gone mostly to Orem. There's lots of planning to be done yet, and no dates have been set." Meeting the People Mrs. Meecham said there often has not been enough communication between the city officials and the taxpayers. "I feel we need more communication.

I have the goal that the citizens are kept informed and are knowledgeable about their programs. The government is the citizens, and we WE CAN BETTER YOUR BUSIISESS By GORDON JOHNSTON Provo City Commission candidates continue to disagree on the airport's future and the development of the inner city as they prepare for their public debate Wednesday evening in the Provo City Commission Chambers Anagene D. Meecham and Israel C. Heaton are solidifying their positions and trying to refute the position of the other as the Nov. 8 election date draws near.

According to Dr. Heaton, "the airport will never become a commercial airport, because it is too close to Salt Lake City. I talked to Myron Jense, who has worked at the airport for 42 years, and he said it just does not look practical. He went on to say the airport does need to be developed, such as having more ramps for the private planes, but we could not afford the many dollars needed to commercialize it. "The city does not net money from the airport, but it is a great service to the city.

If you build more ramps, you just get enough money from rent to keep them up and to pay for personnel," he continued. Even if and when Heritage Mountain is completed, Dr. Heaton said most people would probably continue to fly to Salt Lake City. Mrs. Meecham, interviewed the following day, responded by saying, "It needs enlarging.

I have been stressing this all along. There is a vast untapped tax base there." She said air freight could be a growing tax base as well as commercial planes, and would provide more jobs for Provo citizens. "If the Heritage Mountain project does materialize, it would bring business into the airport. I would favor a small commercial airline, and feel we could accommodate one." Old Homes Mrs. Meecham also said she feels strongly about using federal funds to help restore the inner city.

"By restoring old homes as family units, we could create an economic base and sales tax base that we need. This is in addition to creating the residential charm that we need. Federal funds are available." The "funds" she referred to, she laid, are already in Provo as announced by Mayor Russell D. Grange and total "a little under $200,000." They are Community Development Block Grant appropriations, and are "set for nothing else than to purchase and restore old homes," she emphasized. Dr.

Heaton saii he also is in favor of restoring older areas, because it makes Provo a better town. However, he ad-de I that don't think restoring old homes wiii significantly increase the tax base. It costs as much for Provo to educate our kids and for other services as we pay in taxes." "I'm in favor of preserving the older part of Provo, though, because we never want to be a town of pure industry, with people living in Orem and Springville," Dr. Heaton, said. Other issues they discussed included Heritage Mountain, the downtown Plaza hotel, a proposed mass transit system between Orem and Provo, getting more business into downtown Provo, communication between the citv officials and taxpayers, lark of BYU voters and the physical demands of the Commissioner's job.

Heritage Mountain About the Heritage Mountain project, formerly known as Four Seasons, and the luxury Plaza hotel to be built in the downtown area, Dr. Heaton said, "First, I have my doubts that either one will be built. I don't think present arrangements will begin next spring, like people say." Conceptual plans for the project have been approved by the Forest Service and the City Commission for the ski-resort. We said it is up to the city to decide whether or not the issue should be on the November ballot, because no Provo Mapping Resources SPRINGFIELD, III (UPI) The state's Geological Survey will continue to concentrate in the next fiscal year on mapping and discovering Illinois' major energy resources coal, oil and gas.

Area residents can expect warmer than normal temperatures and clear skies to continue at least through Friday according to Clark Gomez at the Springville Junior High School weather reporting station. There is still no forecast of any chance of damaging frost for that same period. Clark said this morning at 8 a.m. the temperature was 45 degrees with a barometric pressure of 30.09 and rising.

Winds were from the southwest at 5 miles-per-hour. He said that yesterday winds reached 10 miles-per-hour and the high temperature was 70 degrees. The low overnight temperature was only 41, Clark indicated. The student forecaster said that for the period of Wednesday through Friday the low temperature could be expected to be in the 40s while the high temperature could be expected to be in the 70s. The National Weather Service at the Salt Lake International Airport said that there is a cold front moving across northwest Montana and north Idaho but south of that front temperatures are warm.

That service indicated that some clouds could enter northern Utah Wednesday but said that temperatures should still remain warmer than usual for this time of the EXPLORE THE NEW OFFICE WORK CONCEPT NOW AVAILABLE TO BUSINESSMEN (OFFICE OR HOME), PROFESSIONALS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND ALL OTHERS WHO NEED MORE SERVICES AT LESS EXPENSE.

Mr. Heaton expressed his concern at the lack of voters in the recent primary election, especially from the BYU student sector.

"There are 79 districts, and only 20 percent of the registered voters went to the polls, or 6,000 out of 32,000." he said. The district (No. 35) that includes all of Deseret Towers, Heritage Halls and Helaman Halls received only 29 rotes, and the Wymount district had 31." he continued. Every citizen who has been residing in the area for at least 30 days is a potential voter, he said. "Many people, especially students, are not aware of this.

Organizations such as churches and schools should encourage members to vote," he said. Both candidates said they arc equal to the task. Dr. Heaton, who recently retired from BYU. said he has full time to spend on the job.

Mrs. Meecham said, "I feel I can handle the situation in any of the departments I may take over." She said she wil! probably be over Parks and Recreation, which Is what Commissioner E. Odell Miner now oversees. Dr. Heaton explained there are 12 departments of Provo City government such as streets, power and sanitation.

Each commissioner supervises four departments. There is also a department chairman for each department, he said. "The commissioner sets the policy and the department chairman carries it out." Four years ago I said we were in an enviable position which would allow us to increase services without raising property taxes. This situation still exists. Although the other Government bodies around us have raised property taxes, Orem has had NO INCREASE for more than 6 years.

I pledge to work to continue this. The question of DOUBLE TAXATION in our country assessment is a critical one. We presently are taxed for some services only provided to residents outside of the cities. We should not have to pay for services we do not receive. Continued effort will achieve a solution to this problem, a goal we must worK to John Dean Plans Talk at on Mismanagement SALT LAKE CITY (ITll-Former White House counsel and convicted Watergate conspirator John Dean will address a Sales Marketing Executives meeting Nov.
