Telephone users are 100 per cent correct when they assert that they now hear those dis-couraging words more often than they ever heard them before. With 758 local persons now subscribing for telephones and using the service, as compared to the 300 who have telephones in normal times, nothing is mure certain than that telephone lines are busy. The quality of service given by the local exchange remains about the same. This is possible because there are now three op-erators, instead of one, and the manager, Eugene Jenkins, now has an assistant. Why the demand for tele-phones? More people can afford them today than in average tim-es. Also, a telephone is a popular wartime convenience. Wartime gasoline shortage and shoe ra-tioning discourage the whims of those who formerly visited in Conperficld, Copperton, High-land Boy or Lark at will. Today the inclination is to leave the car in the garage and visit via the telephone. Grocers and butchers testify that many people who former-ly rode or walked to stores for shopping are now regularly tele-phoning orders and depending on the stores to make selections and delivery. FUNERAL RITES HELD FOR SNOW SUDEJICTIMS Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon in the Com-munity Methodist church for Harry M. (Bud) Rasmussen, 28, victim of a snowslide which oc-curred about 12:30 p.m. Febru-ary 10 while he was at work for Utah Copper company. The slide, which also claimed the life of Sam Edward Seager, 33, origin-ated in the gulleys at the top of Markham gulch. According to the report of Charles W. Spence, state mine inspector, the snow slide came from a half-mil- e above an en-gineering party of four who were surveying location of a proposed dam, and was unobserved by other company workmen not ov-er 1000 feet from the unfortun-ate victims. David II. Curry, 46, and Milton J. Lancaster, 38, both of Copper-ton- , members of the party who were saved, saw the slide cover Mr. Rasmussen and Mr. Seager and ran to their aid. They were then covered by a second snow-slid- e. After being coved for eight hours by several feet of snow, Mr. Lancaster worked his way free and was able to give the alarm which brought rescuers to the scene. Mr. Curry was un-covered shortly later. It was nearly 12 hours after the slide occurred that the bodies of Rasmussen and Seager were recovered. They were under ut 10 feet of snow, and thou eh them it was futile. The body of Mr. Seaer was shipped to Brandon, Vt., his birthplace, for services. Born March 4, 1910, he was a Gradu-ate of Michigan school of Mines, Houghton. He was employed by the U. S. bureau of mines in Alaska before he entered the army. He came to Bingham as a furloughed soldier last summer. Surviving is a sister, Mrs. Bea-trice Sanderson of Hartford, Conn. A. R. Mangery, furloughed soldier, traveled with the body. The local Furloughed Soldiers organization are paying his ex-penses. Mr. Rasmussen, a son of Harry Mann and Ann Knudsen Ras-- , mussen, was born at Fairview June 5, 1915. He was employed by the Utah state road commis-sion at Richfield before coming to Bingham. On February 21, 1940, he mar-ried Charlotte Sullenger, surgical nurse at Bingham hospital. Surviving are his wife; his mother and three sisters, Mrs. A. J. Riddle, Mrs. Vincent Dug-ga- n, Mrs. J. A. Smart and his grandfather, John Knudsen, all of Salt Lake City; a brother, Pvt. Ralph Rasmussen, U. S. marine corps, Arlington, Texas. Canyon lodge No. 13, F. & A.M. directed services. Vocal solos, "When Day Is Done", sung by Joel P. Jensen, and "Ave Maria", rendered by Mrs. Meredith Smith and a talk by Paul Packard, Salt Lake City, comprised the rites honoring Mr. Rasmussen. Interment was in Mt. Olivet cemetery under direction of Bingham mortuary. Pallbearers were T. J. Rasmus-sen, Provo; Fred Rasmussen, Mt. Pleasant; Bertie Thomas, Lark; Ben Wideman, Salt Lake City; David H. Curry and Willis Sper-r- y of Copperton.o THREE BOYS' GROUPS ELECT OFFICERS Recently organized, Bingham Boys club, with 323 members between the ages of 7 and 17, met last evening for a social at the Civic Center.

O WOMEN WORKERS DO FINE WORK IN BOND DRIVE Fourteen Bingham women will receive the Surgeon General Ci-tation, which is signed by Gen-eral Kirk of the U. S. army and presented each woman who sold $5,000 or more in war bonds dur-ing the Fourth War Loan drive. The goal set for the women of Utah in the drive was four mil-lion dollars, this amount to be designated for purchase of hos-pital equipment for the armed forces. Women of Bingham materially aided the campaign by selling over 90 thousand dollars in E bonds, which they have request-ed be used to equip a 750 bod evacuation hospital. A thorough "house to house canvass" and long hours at the bond booth at J. C. Penney store and by selling bonds at both the athletic show at R. C. Gemmell club and the bond premiere at the Princess theatre were the methods by which Bingham wo-men workers accomplished their goals. Bidders at bond auctions were conscientious about keeping their pledges. At the Gemmell club smoker $8000 in bonds were sold and another $6550 was sold at the Princess show and every auction bidder backed his pledge with a bond purchase. Approximately 70 women took part in bond sales and regard-less of snow and blizzards made good on their commitments. Six-teen women worked a total 440 hours at the booths at J. C. Pen-ney, Gemmell club and Princess theatre. Mr. and Mrs. Jesus Avila and Manuel Gallegos are to be high-ly praised for the splendid work among Mexican colony of Bing-ham. These three sold over $3Uuo in bonds among their country-men. Mrs. Mike Brisk, chairman of the women's division of the War Finance committee, especial-ly thanks the Avilas and Mr. Gallegos and hopes to again have the support of the Mexican com-munity in future war bond drives. Mrs. Brisks statement is as follows: "Sincere thanks of the women's committee goes to Clair R. Mathis for help at the bond booth at Penney's; to Harold Chesler, Mrs. Sadie Chesler and Max Brisk of the Princess theatre; to Willard Nichols and Thomas Yates of the fight committee and Al J. Ablett, who was on the fight committee and also the sure fire auctioneer. "My special thanks to every woman in Bingham district who worked in any capacity, from to captains. I'm proud of every one of you and hope you feet as I do, mat our Bing-ham women may say "Well Done.'

A patriotic American citizen will be found where he can best- - be of service to his country," Mr. "Allsop, who ia rh"iirmnn rf Amoriranium fnr the junior chamber of commerce, told his listeners.

Sports Mere and There by Al Ablett The Miners dropped one to Tooele last week, 32 to 28. think old man Flu had as much to do with the defeat as Tooele. Durnford couldn't make the trip and several other boys were be-low par. Giving the Buffaloes credit where due, I must say they played fine ball. To prove their win over Bingham was no fluke, Tooele says they are go-ing to win plenty from here in. Murray lost their first game in league competition last week. So the race is still a dog fight. Coach Warren G. Allsop says his boys will be in shape for Cyprus to-night on the home, floor. I like the Miners to win this one. . The Salt Lake fans are in for a treat this week-en- d. Eckers plays Dow Chemical. The latter team, coached by Ev Shelton, formerly coach of the Wyoming university collegiate champions, has gathered one of the best teams in the nation. The Harlem Globe Trotters play the Logan Collegians at South high in an-other classy game. The Globe Trotters are former world ' pro-fessional champions and boast of the greatest collection of col-ored players in the country. The Salt Lake air base con-tinues on its winning way. They took Utah U in easy fashion last Saturday and got by Kamas by two points Wednesday night. This week-en- d they take a jaunt into Colprado and Wyoming, when they meet Fort Warren at Cheyenne they will be going up against one of the best in the West. The Cheyenne boys took Dow Chemical by 10 points Wed-nesday night, 51 to 41, so you know they must be good. If the air base can win this one they should be favorites in the Na-tional AAU tournament to be held in Denver next month. The bowling alleys will be open at the club tonight and everyone is rarin' to go. They are in excellent shape and some big scores should be in order. The boys are anxious to get in shape for the slate tournament to be held in Sail Lake City starling March 7. First half of the Gemmell handicap league ended in a tie between the office team and Princess theatre. They will roll it off next week. Entries will be taken for the Gemmell Round Robin all next week. It will be on a handicap basis and house men are barred. One of the most improved bowlers at the local lanes is Steve Gulich, who loves to bowl and is developing a real ball. Bill Ablett has signed with Dee's Hamburger team in the Salt Lake major league. Frank Zaccaria btfwls with Adams Hats in the same league. The Bingham Merchants are still leading the South East lea-gue at Sugar House. Ann Marks is heading the wo-men's league with a 151 average. Marion Johnson, Midge Jensen, Mabel Boberg and Maxine Gayth-wait- e follow in that order. So, starting tonight. Head Pin Louis is in for a beating. So until next week, a good buy is a war bond.

RATION TOKENS GO INTO USE ON FEBRUARY 27 Shopper and merchant alike will be saved time and effort when the new ration tokens go into circulation on February 27, Francis J. Quinn, chairman of the Bingham war price and ra-tioning board said today. Merchants, it is estimated, will be saved $3,000,000 and the handling of 2,400,000,000 ration stamps monthly. In a recent test in Chicago, a line of shoppers using the new system moved past the checking point twice as fast as the line not using ration token change. "By remembering a few sal-ient points," said the chairman, "the average shopper will have no trouble in becoming accus-tomed to the new system. First, beginning February 27, all red and all blue stamps in ration book four will take on a value of ten points, no matter what value they carry on their face. "Second, ration tokens will have a value of one point each and no expiration date. Red tok-ens will be used as change for red stamps and blue tokens for blue stamps." VICTORY FLAG SOCIETY DANCE FEBRUARY 26 Plans have been completed by Carl "Chicago Charlie" Za-h-for the vaudeville and Boo-gie Woogie dance to be held at the Civic Center Saturday evening, February 26. Several entertainment features have been lined up for the affair. All proceeds from the dance and vaudeville will go into the Memorial fund of the Victory Flag society. COOPERATION ASKED TO HELP CURB CHILD DELINQUENCY by Ken Shulsen Effective March 3. a new ordinance sponsored by Salt Lake county and passed by the city, prohibits minors un-der 14 years of age to appear on the streets and in public places after 10 p.m. unless ac-companied by parents or guard-ians and makes it unlawful for those over 14 years of age and under 18 years to be out after 12 o'clock midnight. This ordinance is going to be backed to the letter by the city and county officials. Law officers expect to meet with wholehearted cooperation of parents and children. City officials hope that there will be no violations of the ordinance and that there will not be any need for jail im-prisonments or fines to impress upon the public the fact that the ordinance will be strictly enforced. The ruling is called to the attention of all organi-zations who are urged to see that meetings and socials are in the future timed to allow minors to be at home before the 10 p.m. and midnight cur-fews. Because a few minors have employment or other lawful business which might lake them on the streets after cur-few hours, it has been made possibla for the chief of police to issue special permits. All business houses have pledged cooperation in the county-wid- e undertaking, aimed at control of juvenile delinquency. i O BIRTHS Mr. and Mrs. Norman Jacob-se- n of Copperton are receiving congratulations on the birth of a son at Holy Cross hospital Feb-ruary 13.
