MINERS HOLE THROUGH IN FOUR-MIL- E TUNNEL Lark Hard rock miners driv-ing the new four-mil- e Bingham mine tunnel for United States Smelting Refining and Mining Co. Sunday junctured with the No. 3 shaft, completing the main course of a multi-millio- n dollar ore haulage development. Workmen for the general con-tractor, Utah Construction Co., "holed through" to the shaft at 6:46 a.m. Sunday. Purpose of the new tunnel is to bring all ores from the var-ious USSR&M mining phases within the mountain out of a common portal and thereby sim-plify the shipping operations to the company smelter at Midvale. Shaft No. 3, completed last October, will bring ores from drifts above the level of the new bore down to the tunnel. The tunnel also junctures with the old No. 2 shaft, which will carry ores from the phases below CITY COUNCIL Renewal of the Comprehen-sive General Liability policy through S. E. Ferneley, agent, was given approval of the city council at their regular meeting last Thursday night, reported Eugene Morris, recorder. Also approved was the regular pay-roll totaling $1443.58. Mayor C. A. Morley reported that Paul LaBounty has left the police de-partment as of April 13th. O B.D.A.A FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp Baseball Boosters Bingham, the little mining community, and perrennial hot-bed of the grand old national pastime, is out once again to make its mark in the popular diamond circles. Baseball boost-ers in the community have put forth a lot of time and effort in the past t promote and carry on this great outdoor sport. Nearly every season, our fans have helped teams in the Jun-ior American Legion, and many groups of youngsters in various leagues have been sponsored and kept active in this fine summer recreation. The Bingham high school squad, always at or near the top in prep circles, is always well supported by our local fans and very few towns are more enthusiastic about baseball than we are. Through the splendid interest and cooperation of the local mining concerns, the Jordan school district and others, the BDAA is working hard, not only to keep baseball alive, but to improve facilities for play and spectator interest. The beautiful park at Copperton, with the finest sodded field, lighting equal to most major league parks and an infield of the best soil obtainable, is receiving other improvements this season. , Construction of a magnificent change and shower building will soon get underway, and player accomodations will be at the best. BDAA Training News The BDAA baseball hopefuls have been hard at it the ' past week, with daily workouts at the Copperton jark. Manager Wilson has had the boys hitting, running and throwing all week, in an attempt to unlimber the kinks in time for the season op-ener on May 6th. Mgr. Wilson, staunch believer in conditioning, has had several local boys out, along with a few returning veterans, and has had them working hard at different posts. Just who will be playing any certain position when the season opens, is still doubtful, but if hard work helps make a ball club, then we can rest as-sured that our local crew will be right in the thick of things. Support Needed Now, more than ever before, the BDAA needs the whole hearted support of you fans and members. Baseball, along with the year round program of soft-bal- l, basketball and our various activities, is expensive, and we can continue all of these pro-grams only thru your help and interest. These programs are maintain-ed for community growth and benefit, and we would like ev-eryone to join and share the activities with us. The BDAA baseball team is ndt a private enterprise, it be-longs to and is made possible thru you members. You can help a great deal in various ways; take part, attend activities, and ask your friend or neighbor to join us. SOFTBALL SLANTS Softball interest is again get-ting stirred up around the town and indications are for another successful season of the popular short diamond sport. Already several teams have signified interest in play. A meeting will toe held the latter part of April for all Softball en-thusiasts. Keep up the good work fellows, we'll try and help make 1951 the best year yet. For further information on soft-bal- l, contact Ross Pino, Herb Babcock, or the writer. v Sports Here and There by Al Ablctt Baseball fans of the Jordan division got the surprise of this young season, when the Miners lost their opening game to the Tooele Buffaloes 10 to 0. They only got two hits, and the Too-ele boys teed off about 4 extra base hits that meant runs. One game doesn't make a season, but the Miners' weakness at the plate has Sandy worried. They play Cyprus today at Copperton. They are off and running in the big leagues, and it looks like the experts had the National league picked about right. The Giants, Phillies and Dodgers, look like the class in the older circuit. In the American league those Yankees with two rookies in the lineup won their first two against Boston. With Jackie Jensen the California Golden boy hitting like a house afire. Jackie" got $65,000 for signing with Oakland, but of course, the Yankees were supplying the money. Mantel, the boy that has been drawing all the raves this spring, is doing great for a boy jup from Class C. Will know more about' him after he has gone around the circuit and the pitchers have had a chance to look him over. But Casey still has that good pitching and a great double play combination. Cleveland has a great pitching staff and their first two games showed it. Lemon had a two hitter and Winn won his, allow-ing 6 hits. Boston hasn't got good pitching to start but of course, too early to Judge. Just put this in your book, watch those White Sox. I like the Gi-ants. The Lip has a good pitch-ing staff and speed to burn. If Bobby, Thompson has a good year at the plate, they will ne-ver head them off. I don't think the Bums have the pitching, and the Phillies don't have the bench. Too much lost when one of the regulars is out. Salt Lake looks like they have a good club. They tell me they could use a short stop. Our boy Don Gust has made the Richmond, Ind., club. Don has been going good at the plate. Don't know any more about the Bingham entry in the Indus-trial league than I did last week. Some of the veterans are out. George Slutfa and Herb Bab-coc- k, I understand, Max Payton has been signed. But up to now don't know who will pitch the opener. Utah U has what looks like the class on this side of the mountains. Max Persseto and Vic Stuckensnider pitched them to a double win over the Aggies last Friday. Bingham has be-sides Vic, Mickey Culleton, Moose Ray and Del Schick wear-ing the red and white this year. They play BYU today, Friday, at Derks field at 3:30. See you next week. AL o BINGHAM JR. AND SR.
