Utahns celebrate "Utah Day" at Disneyland's State Fair Lt. Governor W. Val Oveson of Utah and Sophia Symko, Miss Utah 1988, were the special guests of "State Fair at Disneyland" as the Park celebrated "Utah Day" recently. Oveson was featured in the "Come to the Fair" parade, and was presented with a statuette of Mickey Mouse during dur-ing a colorful flag-raising ceremony in Town Square. Upon accepting the gift, Oveson said, "I'm delighted to be here representing the state of Utah at this marvelous State Fair." Sophia Symko, Miss Utah, was made an honorary citizen of the Magic Kingdom and also represented Utah in Disneyland's "Come to the Fair" parade. "State Fair at Disneyland" is an eleven-week celebration that features all the fun of 50 state fairs rolled into one, with parades, daredevil acts, midway games, pig races, food booths and many other festivities. Disneyland's "State Fair" event continues con-tinues daily through Nov. 13. Chapter 24 Port wandered eastward, limiting his travels to back roads and small towns. He had no idea how far the wanted poster would circulate, so he passed through the less populated areas figuring there would be less chance of being recognized. His first goal was to put a lot of miles between him and the Missouri authorities,. He wandered across Illinois, Il-linois, Indiana, Ohio and much of Pennsylvania before finally thinking about his second goal, which was to find work so he could have extra money to send home, both to his mother and to Luana, whom he thought would probably be in Nauvoo by this time. Work was difficult if not impossible impossi-ble to find, even during harvest time. While most farmers would let a man work for his food, Port could not find a single farm where cash wages were paid. After passing through the Amish farming communities near Lancaster, Lan-caster, he finally ended up in Philadelphia, where on the second "UTAH DAY" AT DISNEY LAND-Lt. Governor W. Val Oveson and Miss Utah 1988, Sophia Symko, are welcomed by Mickey Mouse and Roger Rabbit on Utah Day daring the Park's "State Fair" event on Monday, Oct 3. "State Fair at Disneyland" is an eleven-week celebration through Nov. 13 that salutes the best of all 50 state fairs rolled into one. day he found a job that paid cash and all the food he wanted. And so Port began a short but exciting ex-citing career as a dishwasher at the London Flame Restaurant on F Street Port responded to a sign in the window. The largest gray rat Port had ever seen was licking at the green jelly, jel-ly, while looking fearlessly up into Port's face with shiny black eyes. Port kicked at the rat but missed. The rodent disappeared beneath the sink. The next time the owner passed through the kitchen, noticing the broken plate and coldly reminded Port that a dollar would be deducted out of his first week's pay. Port wanted to protest about losing half his pay over one lousy plate, but he said nothing. He determined to be more careful. A minute later the boy told Port to get the lead out of his pants, that he was not washing fast enough. Port felt like tossing the little runt through the door, but didn't. He just tried to work faster, until he accidentally rolled roll-ed two glasses against each other, breaking both of them. Now he figured he would be working the first week for nothing. Ml As he was fishing the broken glass out of the sink, Port happened to look down. The huge rat was. cautiously licking the last of the mint jelly off his boot. Carefully, Port reached for a meat cleaver that was hanging on a peg near the back of the sink. The cleaver felt more comfortable comfor-table in his hand than a dishrag. With a flick of his wrist, the cleaver flashed flash-ed downward. There was a loud thunk as the blade sunk into the soft pine floor about an inch in front of Port's boot. The poor rat hadn't seen it coming, com-ing, and suddenly his head was separated from the rest of his body by the thick, heavy blade. "The new dishwasher killed Rudolph!" the cook shouted to the women, who rushed into the kitchen to see. "Wow," said the boy when he arrived. The only one not impressed with Port's quickness was the owner. All he saw was the two broken glasses, a cleaver buried into his expensive floor, and Port using a new dishrag to wipe up a pool of red rat blood. To Be Continued Next Week |
