Of outstanding interest were the baseball games between the boys' teams of Tremonton and Garland, and the girls' teams of Garland and Elwood. The superb pitching of Lee and Wayne Burgess of Tremonton won the boys' game by a score of 8 to nothing. Equally thrilling was the girls' game, won by Garland, with a final score of 25 to 19. These teams are now the proud possessors of the base ball trophies given by the county school board. The track events were of unusual interest because of the close compe tition between rival contestants. The dual for first place honors centered around Wayne Burgess of Tremonton and 'Whizzer" White of Garland. Both boys won 16 points for his team. Burgess took first place in the 50 yd. dash, the high jump, the relay, and third place in the broad jump. White won first place in the 75 yd. dash, the broad jump, and second place hi the high jump and the relay. The contest ended with Garland taking first place in the senior division, Tremonton second and Both-wethird. In the junior division, Garland won first place, Thatcher second, and Tremonton third.

The services were held in the Tremonton Second Ward .under the direction of Bishop James Walton. Miss Barbara Rasmussen was at the console of the organ playing the prelude and postlude, also playing accompaniments. Musical numbers were rendered by Mrs. Judith Strand, Arch Richardson, with Mrs. Jewell Steffen as accompanist; a duet by Miss Erma Holland and Mrs. Irene Nichols and the "Trail Builders. Song," by some 40 Trail Builder boys of the Tremonton Wards. Eugene was a member of this group. The opening prayer was offered Morrison and the closing by Martin Campbell. Speakers were E. IT. Cornwall, Reverend R. F. Goff, of the M. E. Church; Dean Orwin, school teacher of Eugene; and Bishop Walton, All of the speakers offered words of comfort and hope and warm tributes to the life of the boy and his family. A profusion of flowers completely covered the rostrum and side tables. Eugene Orval Nelson was born in Tremonton July 30, 1930 a son of Chester and Myrtle Johnson Nelson. His death was caused through drowning in the Bear River. The lad left his home for school at the usual hour Friday morning and during the after- noon he and three of his school companions, Reed Adams, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Alden S. Adams; Billie Goldsberry, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Goldsberry; and Darrell Gar- field, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Garfield, all of this city, hiked two miles east to the Bear River for a pre season swim, during which time the boy was drowned. Several attempts were made by the lads, according to their reports, at rescuing, but their eTforts were futile. It wasn't until the following morning that the boys told of the accident and immediately the fire alarm was sounded and a report circulated which brought hundreds of men from all walks of life, including the Tremonton and Garland fire department, CCC enrollees and officers, businessmen and farmers. Assistance also came from the fire department of Logan and for 60 hours a relentless search, which entailed the combing over and over of the river for a mile or more from the spot where he was drowned, and ended in the finding of the body up against a fence, which had been placed across the stream for that purpose, at 5:30 a. m. Monday. The body was discovered by Alden S. Adams, educational adviser of the CCC camp, LeRoy Bunnell, agricul- tural director at the B. R. H. S. and two CCC enrollees, Archie Puryear and John Smith. These men were continuing the search from midnight until 6 a. m., a shift they volunteered, in the hopes of finding the remains of the youth before the waters, which had been diverted Saturday from the river, were turned back into the river Monday morning. Previous to finding the body, the crews had used grappling hooks, and hay rakes all day Saturday without success and after the water had subsided the hole where it was thought the body might be was pumped, but to no avail. A great relief was felt from the terrific tension and anxiety of not only his parents and loved ones, but the entire community when the body was discovered. He is survived by his parents and the following brothers and sisters: Verda, 22; Elaine, 13; Dean, 7; and Ross, 4; and his grandmother, Margaret Johnson. Interment was made in the Brigham City cemetery, Bishop Moroni Lundberg dedicating the grave. Shaw & Iverson funeral directors. CAMPAIGN FLASH!
