An Independent Newspaper BINGHAM CANYON, UTAH, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1959 Oldest Weekly In Sail Lake County TELEPHONE PR 36 I 11 - ' '' I. I I NEWSLETTER ISSUEDTHIS WEEK Employment in Utak'i missile in-dustry has reached 8,100 in 1959, as compared with 3,300 a year ago, and there are also notable increases in employment in food processing, construction and financial and ser-vice industries. That is the report of First Secur-ity Bank's News Letter being dis-tributed this week, according to R. O. Chapman, manager, first Secur-ity Bank, Bingham Canyon. The News Letter is prepared by ElRoy Nelson, First Security vice president and economist, assisted by Harvey Frazier. Because of strikes, Utah's em-ployment showed major decreases in metal mining, coking coal mining and in copper and. steel. "By Octo-ber, impacts of the strikes in steel and copper were noticeable beyond geographical areas directly affected by reduced employment and pay-rolls in tho metal industries," the report shows. First Security reports that per-sonal income from agriculture in Utah in 1959 will be approximately the same as in 1958. "However, the drought in southern Utah has re-duced both sheep and cattle pro-duction, and income from livestock,' the News Letter says. Department store sales in the Salt Lake City area were 13 per cent higher during I959's first eight months than during 1958, the Let-ter notes. Automobile sales in Utah for I959's first nine months were 32 per cent ahead of last year. The accelerated building activity in the state continued through September, but striken and tight money had begun to slow the pace in October, the Letter noted. O . STRIKE TALKS SET FOR OCTOBER 26 Bargaining sessions to discuss health, welfare and insurance pro-grams, scheduled between Kennecott Copper Corp. and all but one of the striking unions, have been post-poned until Monday, October 26. They were originally scheduled for Wednesday. No other meetings between strik-ers and the company are scheduled except with the United Steel-worker- s, whose meetings are being held under auspices of the Federal Mediation Service. Kennecott officials, in announc-ing the delay, said no significance should be attached to the postpone- - ment, because the bargaining pro-blems involved are so complicated that time was needed to properly prepare proposals.O PHONE COMPANY LISTS TRANSFER OF MIDDLEMAN Arthur D. Syme of Murray was appointed Commercial Representa-tive of the Midvale Exchange for The Mountain States Telephone Company, effective October 1 2th, according to DeWayne W. Simmons, manager.

FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp MINERS BLANK LANCERS) AIM AT BUFFS TODAY 1 Bingham High's football squad fut on a show of defensive strength Thursday, as it blanked a rug-ged Granger crew 14 to 0, on the Lancers home held. The Miners held the Lancers to practically no ground gained in the entire first naif, while pushing across two touchdowns. Bingham's defensive eleven, with shaved heads and a determination that the opponents 'shall not pass', nor run either for that matter, held the Lancers in check. put on a strong show in the second half, but the Miners protected their goal line by the superb play of the de-fensive unit, dubbed the "Blue Dragons". Coach Del Schick's crew went into a first place tie with Murray in Region Four with two victories and no defeats. Today the Miners will try to ride herd on a rather weak Tooele crew, who have yet to score a touchdown in league play. Murray will have a big task in try-ing to stay on top by overcoming a good Granger team, and the Bing-ham crew could be in sole possess-ion of first place after this week's play. Bingham will take the field the Tooele Buffaloes at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon, Friday, and will be hosts to the Cyprus Pirate next Friday at Copperton.

SAVINGS BONDS "Many Utahns don't realize that the new increased interest rates on savings bonds also benefit bonds they already own," Bingham Dis-trict Chairman W. Russell Anderson said today in his monthly sales report. "A number of people are cash-ing in their old bonds to buy the new bonds because they don't un-derstand that the new 3 per cent interest rate approved by Congress last month also provides for in-creases in rates for bonds already issued," the chairman said. "This cashing-i- n actually penalizes the individual who turns in his bond because the longer a bond is held the higher the rate of interest it draws." "Talk to your banker before you cash in a savings bond," he advised. The chairman went on to report that September purchases of sav-ings bonds in Salt Lake county were $637,731, and for the nine months of the year totaled $5,395,380 or 63.5 per cer.t of the county's 1959 sales goal. Total purchases through out Utah reached $1,464,783, he announced. In conclusion the chairman quot-ed a recent statement of President Eisenhower in which he said, "To my mind there is no better way of saving, np more effective way of strengthening our power for peace, than to own United States savings bonds. To buy these bonds is to express faith in America. It helps provide the economic strength in both our government and in indi-vidual families on which our free-dom depends." " 4 ' ' V i .

In fact, the girl who ha been sheltered or re-stricted Is usually more likely to make a wrong "match" for her-e-lf than a right" one.

The problem of dating it always a serious matter for parents and their teenage children. And, for some reason. It la a difficult prob-lem for each of them to deal with.

A Minnesota teenager writes: "I have a real problem. I am 16 years old and a Junior in high school. 1 have been going with a boy for about 6 months. He is very nice and I like him very much. He is 18 years old and has been in the Navy for one year. The problem Is that he wants to go steady, but my mother says that I am too young and that 1 don't know what I want. Is my mother right, or am I? She won't let me go out with other boys, either. There are lots of nice boys that have asked me to go with them but she says that I am too young to "run around." All we do is go to a show and I think that ia okay." Our first reaction is that there is a big difference between "run-ning around" and just going to a movie with a boy. Certainly a girl of 16 is old enough to have "dates," but this does not necessarily mean that she is old' enough or wise enough to go "steady."
