His brother, David J. Jones, also trapped by the cave-in- , could hear his brother breathing for about 45 minutes but was unable to aid him. R. L. Christie, superintendent of the mine, said the men were working in a drift between the 560 and 770 foot levels of the mine. Apparently the cave-i- n occur-red behind the spot where they were timbering and the rock and muck trapped them, he said. The tragic story was told by his brother. "We were walking toward the lace when tne tail trapped us, he said. "By the luminous dial on my watch I could see the time as 9:55 a.m. "I could hear George breath-ing, but could not locate him. He did not answer to my calls. In about 45 minutes his breathing stopped," he said. A rescue crew of five men found the trapped duo at 11 a.m. and it took more than two hours of digging to free David, accord-ing to Mr. Christie. The men had to use hand shovels and picks. David suffered head injuries, an injured arm and bruises. A native of Lehi, George Ralph Jones was born June 10, 1927, son of Evan J. and Jemima Hen-so- n Jones. He was educated in Lehi schools. On October 29, 1947 he mar-ried Leonj Curtis in Provo. Mr. Jones was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints. Funeral services will be con-ducted Saturday at 2 p.m. in Lehi Third LDS ward chapel. U PREPARES FOR PRODUCTION OFJARMEN Bizet's ever popular "Carmen", tale of gypsy passion, will open Friday in Stadium bowl at 8:45 p.m. as the second feature of the annual University of Utah Sum-mer Festival. Kitty Carlisle, motion picture, radio and opera star, will sing the title role. Since her arrival in Salt Lake City, she has amazed critics, reviewers and behind-th- e scenes personnel with her dram-atic talents. In private life the wife of Moss Hart, noted play-wright and librettist, Miss Car-- j lisle brings to the role a rich voice and a commanding stage presence. Robert Rounseville, who has just completed singing the lead in "The Great Waltz," will por-tray Don Jose, jealous suitor of Carmen. Mr. Rounseville made his operatic debut in New York City in the same role and was hailed by Time magazine and countless ether reviewers as the t.f:..,j' e 4U n r ..... ville has been widely acclaimed for his role as Johann Strauss Jr. in "The Great Waltz." Theodor Uppman, personable baritone from the Pacific coast and winner of the Atwater Kent auditions in 1947, will take the part of Escamillo the toreador. A veteran of the G I entertainment unit in Europe after the invas-ion of France, Mr. Uppman has sung with the San Francisco and Los Angeles Opera companies and was heralded by one coast reviewer as the best and most engaging baritone to reach na-tional prominence since Nelson Eddy. Music for the production, to be sung in English, is under the direction of Maurice Abravanel, who has directed "Carmen" in at least 10 countries. The energetic maestro has spent many hours rehearsing the orchestra and cor-relating the chorus which is also under his supervision. Especially imported for several dance sequences which have been added to the show are Roland and Jerry Vasquez, both of the San Francisco Ballet Co., who have been touted as one of the finest brother and sister acts in the mo-dern dance theatre. Dancing will be directed by William F. Chris-tense- n, Utah born choreographer of the San Francisco Opera Co., who choreographed "The Great Waltz." Dr. C. Lowell Lees, director of the show, has converted the 120 by 70 foot stage used in The Great Waltz to the Bizet produc-tion. Carmen has more scene-chang- es than the Waltz and the stage, designed by Vern Adix, University theatre set technician, was built for rapid transforma-tion and maximum sound repro-- I duction. if Bh forkers f HERETONIGHT by Jm Abplanalp 't rtvU baseball nine will I ',;rih-.ii- first win in second vJ of the Industrial loop flht (Friday) against the len American Fork Th.' forkers, with a team over 300, led by $s top slugger, Al Tate, I lade it rough on opposing i and tonight's game may ;,ntv of action.

Following the banquet, dancing was enjoyed to the music of Lor-e- n Allred and the Utah Wrangl-ers of the Progressive School of Music. O Sports Here and There by Al Ablett On last Tuesday night 13,000 fans gathered at the fair grounds in Salt Lake City to see the ten rounder between Remo Polodori and Jay Lambert billed for the heavyweight championship of the intermountain region. It was the largest crowd in the history of Utah boxing. They were re-warded by seeing one of the best cards ever staged in the state. From the sixth round opener to the last round of the main ev-ent I refereed the semi wind up and the main event and in the semi Rex Lane, the Cache Val-ley rock-a-by- e boy put "Cyclone" Williams to sleep in one minute of the first round with as pretty a left hook as this writer has had the privilege of seeing. The bell rang to start the fight and Wil-liams sent home a whistling left hand that must have stung Lane, and the blonde bomber went into action. Jabbing with his left he rushed Williams to the ropes and sent a sizzling left Jiook over a left lead that lit square on the button. Williams went down like a falling tree, his head hitting the canvas so hard it rebounded about six inches. He was still on uueer street in the dressing mom. In the main event the judges didn't agree with me. I had Polo-dori the winner by the score of six rounds to three with one even. A poll of the press section found all the writers having ut the same card as I had. Joe Sloan, one of the Judges, had Lambert five, Polodori three with two even. Joe Dupler the other judge, had two and two with six even. So the official verdict was a draw but I haven't found any one in the 13,000 that agreed. Remo gave the former Olympic fighter a boxing lesson. Scoring repeatedly with a long left and crowding Lambert in every round when Jay decided to take the aggressive he got nothing but second best. In the eighth round Polodori shook the big West Jor-dan boy from stem to stern with a right cross that sent Lambert's mouth piece flying and forcing him to cover up and hold on. From the fifth round on I thought Remo won every round. But if the decision didn't prove any-thing that crowd proved that the fans are here if you give them something for their money. The second half is well under-way in the Industrial league and it again looks like Helper and American fork will be the teams to beat. They have each won their first two games and they are both getting good pitching as well as timely hitting. Bingham plays American Fork at the local ball field tonight (Friday) and I look for the locals to come through this one on the long end. The league is drawing better than they have in a long time and the teams are respond-ing with a good brand of ball. See you next week, AL SUMMER PLAYGROUND by B. J. Santistevan Another week completed at your summer baseiball playground and again it ended with a house of fire. This week ended the second quarter with the same winners repeating as the first quarter. In the Senior league the Bingham team came out with a perfect re-cord. This club has many young bovs on its club with Mer. Dick Roblez, Clair Rager and "Trig-ger" LaComb keeping this club where it Is. The Junior league was again taken by the A & M after fight-ing it out with the Copperton Stars. Tommy James at 2nd, Ron Boron at 3rd, Tom Lovat at 1st and Norman Chesler gives this club a well balanced infield, with John Arritola doing the catch-ing. The Copperton Stars attack is lead by the Muhar brothers and the two Peterson boys. The Bingham Browns finally lost there first game but still took the second quarter. Tony Menna who is the manager of this club, is one of the most im-proved ball players on the grounds. During this week on Tuesday, the Magna and Garfield areas of the Salt Lake County Recreation department, visited our play-grounds and brought with them four ball clubs. In the first con-test the Bingham club of the Sen-ior league rolled over the Magna Pirates 12 to 3. Cowdell on the mound for Bingham was just too much for this club. Kay Breeze the Magna Pirates catcher, and Ronnie Thurman, pitcher, did some fine playing for their ball club. In the .second game Canyon Motor beat the Garfield Majors 15-- 0 as Bob Sanchez pitched a no hitter for the motor men.

In another game played the A & M Sky-Lark- s combined with the Copperton Stars to edge the Magna Buchiners 14-1- 5. Bob Zito and Penny Tiglson played great ball for the Buckineers. In one of the best played gam-es of the afternoon the Bingham Merchant) lost our only game to the Garfield Minors. Lynn Har-rison and Larry Wilson's bats were just too much to handle. We want to say that we really enjoyed having this group up to play us and in the near future we will return to their areas for return matches. The Bingham baseball play-ground has made arrangements through the county recreation de-partment to take the boys up to the Spruces lodge. The dates have been set for the 21st and 22 of July so if you have a boy and want to .end 'him please send word with him down to our play-ground so that we can sign him up. We will secure the transpor-tation to and from the canyon. Many questions have been ask-ed about our Huck Finn day. The date has not been set as yet but the event should take place be-tween now and three weeks. Plans are being made to hold ours after Murray holds there's so we have to wait for them. This is the end of the line from our baseball playground and the dope on what your boys are doing. In ending we want to send an invitation to any parent or Bingham resident who has a few spare moments during the day to visit our playground and see these boys in action.
