SAFE AND ORDERLY NEW YEARS EVE
 IS REPORTED HERE

The most safe and orderly New Years Eve Palmer has had in many years was proudly reported yesterday by local law enforce ment officials.
 For the first time in the his tory of Palmer, claimed Police Chief Bernie Bouwens, there wasn't a single fight on the street or in a bar on New Years Eve"
 Bouwens attributed this record to the extra police help added over the New Years holiday and the excellent cooperation be- tween the local agents and the Air Police from Elmendorf Air Force Base. Joe May of Wasilla and Tom Murton were deputized to help keep law and order in Palmer on New Years Eve and New Years Day.
 The Highway Patrol recorded no accidents in this area during the holiday period, although two drivers did report tangling with moose. The Wasilla record was marred by a serviceman who ap- parently wanted to get some where in. hurry. He appropriat- ed a handy jeep, ran it off the road near the railroad tracks, and ended up by being run over by the rear wheels of the jeep. Fortunately he was not seriously injured. He was removed to the Base hospital after receiving emergency treatment at Valley Hospital.
 Stan Laird of the Highway Pa- trol said that the holidays just past were the first Christmas and New Years when there wasn't "a bunch of cars piled up".. He attributed this to the recent tax increases on liquor and income. People cant afford to drink too much, he said.
 Whether or not Laird's opinion is correct, there was no damper on the gaiety which attended the New Years Eve celebration. Ac- cording to reports everyone had a wonderful time Palmer had many visitors that night from
