Creedon After fifty years of serving the Catholics of our community, Holy Rosary Church in Carx Fork will cease "to be after February 23rd. The church was new when I first came to Bingham in Octo-ber It) 11 and it has taken care of all the spiritual needs of my-self and family since that time, so its roots are deep in iny heart and I feel sad to see the old church go. I remember vividly by first Holy Communion and Confirma-tion, with the first class con-firmed by Bishop Joseph S. Glass ii Bingham Canyon, December 12, 1915. A public reception was held in his honor at historic Canyon Hall, witih Mayor F. E. Straup and Dr. J. F. Flynn the principal speakers. More than thirty priests have administered in the parish as pastors and assistants in the past fifty years and each one left some part of himself with us. I rememiber Father Timothy Brinnan, pastor when we came to Bingham Canyon, as the ab-sent minded one. He wanted to welcome our new family to the pariah, so one day invited us to dinner, 'but he forgot to tell the housekeeper and when we ar-rived at the appointed hour it was her night oft. My mother took over and saved the day. Father Markham, who taught me my Catechism in preparation for First Holy Communion was a saintly man. He was always sending out letters for donations to the struggling parish. The ba-zaars he held were gala events in the social life of the church. He put in the first stained glass windows, for I carried the water for the paste that put the paint-ings on the glass, as the water in Carr Fork at that time had too much mineral in it. I hauled the water from the B & G on the tram. I remember going on sick calls with him, especially one call to the Doty home in Highland Boy. We waded through drifts of snow almost to my armpits. Father Henry Wicntjes was a master carpenter and cabinet maker and he put in the cup-boards in the sacristy. He had no housekeeper and had his meals at our home at the B&G. In the early "20's" Father John M. Ryan came to Bingham Can-yon, and he was so different from the others. He was a great ath-lete and outdoor man. He took over the management of the Utah Copper Baiseball Team one sum-mer and helped start them on the road to victory. After Father Ryan we had a great number or priests that were with us only a year or two each and they had the great task of caring for our needs during the depression years and then in 1940 Father Daniel E. Leahy was sent to Bingham and he remain-ed until 1948. He had the foresight to buy valuable property for the church, namely the old Society Hall, which will now serve as our church and parish hall, the con-vent at 299 Main and the ground for the Copperton church. He was a tireless worker and left us in a state cf broken health. His mark on the parish, will long WV 11.41, In 1946 he was sent an assist-ant, Father Francis. They made quite a pair Father Leahy, five foot six and Father Francis about six foot five. Father John LaBranche suc-ceeded Father Leahy and car-ried out the work of the parish began by Father Leahy by com-pleting the Copperton church and making many improvements in the church in Bingham Can-yon. Father John J. Sullivan, our present pastor, a real fighter in the true sense of an Irishman named Sullivan, has built up the church in the face of a mass mi-gration of our Catholic families to the valley. He has stood firm in what he has thought best for his flock Over tnc years I recall the faithful, who would be at Mass every Sunday and carrying the burden of support of the church: Mrs. Anna Stephan from High-land Boy who walked to Mass every Sunday, rain or shine. Mrs. Patrick Hyland, of Copperfield. The Culletons, Caulfields, Steel-e- s, Looneys and their families were some of the regulars I re-member. Also Mrs. Anna Mc-Guir- e, who always dressed the same and occupied the same pew. One Easter Sunday, Paddy the Priest, an eccentric character from Highland Boy, resplendent in his cutaway coat and spats and flower in his lapel, had oc-cupied Mrs. McGuire's pew and when she arrived sire managed to squeeze in beside him and gradually and firmly shoved him to the middle of the pew. I remember the two pot bellied stoves at each end of the church, Vou roasted near them and froze in the middle of the church in the cold winters. That was be-fore the ceiling was lowered and insulated. I remember the many services I attended as an Altar boy for nearly ten years the baptisms, the confirmations, weddings, .funerals and in later years, the missions, the novenas, the May processions and Midnight Masses. Some of my friends have made the complete cycle from baptism, confirmation, marriage and fun-eral services all in Holy Rosary Church. Soon the building that shelter-ed the Blessed Sacrament so long will be no more, but the many memories and blessings received there will be with me forever.

LrawCTgaaft ifSSieMR?tl afeWfll J WEEKLY PAV CUeCKS jU&mII JV$ j Sports Here and There by Al Ablett (Monday night Gene Fullmer meets Milo Savage in a 10 round-er that the people of Utah have been waiting, lor a long time. Gene's manager, iMarv Jenson, says he didn't want the fight but Gene told him to take it. Jenson wanted to take on a boy from the East, in fact there were two men, neither one has any more piestige than Savage and I am sure that Savage will draw more of a crowd than a fight with any 'other unranked man could pos- - sibly have in Salt L.ake. Jo Irom la financial standpoint Savage is the logical man. But fiom the standpoint of bettering his po-s.ti- cn in the middleweight rat- -' ings, Gene has everything to lose and nothing to gain. But the fact remains he must get some action if he is to keep sharp. So from that standipoint I think, he has made a good move. Savage has a style that Gene is familiar with, they have worked out together a nun ber of times, so he should be able to protect himself. For Savage and his manager, Jack McCarthy, this- fight could be a great break, because even if Mllo doesn't win and he makes a good showing, it should open up the iui.d to some1 good paydays. Now to answer a question that I have been asked about by ev-eryone that has talked to me ut the fight. I am not going to referee it. I have been a friend cf the Fullmer family for years, and the same goes for Jack Mc- Carthy, Savage's manager. So I have no desire to get in the middle of anything that might jeopardize that friendship. I jwj.nt to thank everyone for the nice things they have said about me, as a referee, but this fight, no thank you. There is, contrary to what you might hear, some good seats left. So if you are planning on seeing it, get tin em as soon as possible. Our high school basketball team continue's to be a surprise to the so called experts that 'picked them to finish near the .bottom of the Jordan Division. !They revenged their early sea-son loss to Cyprus by taking the Magna boys into camp on their own floor, 63 to 52 with little Larry Dehlin scoring 31 points, They now have a chance to make the Class A tournament their first year in that division. You just can't sell that Miner fight short. Doesn't look much like base-ball weather at the present, but the season is just around the corner. Next week is going to be a big week for the Salt Lake entry in the P.C.L. This is the week they are going all out to sell Bee stock. It is selling for .$5 a share, and what could be a more enjoyable present to your boy than a share in a Class AAA ball club. So if you can see your-self clear at all buy the boy a share, and let him be the wearer proud of a button saying I am a share holder in the Bees. Was a nice spring while it lasted wasn't it. See You. next week.

FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp MINERS AT TOOELE TONITE; MEET OLYMPUS TUESDAY The local prep hoopsters, after a convincing win over the Cyprus Pirates last week, go all out the next two games to try for their first Class A tourney berth. The Miners travel to Tooele tonight, and next week's game with Olympus has been set up from Friday to Tuesdav to allow for any play-of- f games that look certain to arise. Last Friday night, the Miners downed Cyprus (53 to 52, to even jthe score against the Pirates and also even their league standing with four wins and four losses. Larry Deblm was the big gun-jn- er against the Pirates, as he racked up 31 points to gain prep lienors for the week. The Miners will be favored the first time this season as they take on the Tooele Buffs tonight, and a vic-tory could keep them in the lunning for a tourney spot, as Jordan plays host to Cyprus. Olycpus, in second spot, could run into trouble with a rejuven-ated Murray quint, and if to-night's games turn up an upset or two, the .Region Four stand-ings could really be scrambled. Bingham's games with Olym-pus next Tuesdav night will be-gin at 6:30 and "8:00 p.m. Don't forget this game has been chang-ed from next Friday to Tuesday night, March 4. Baseball Wealher? It leaks like baseball is a long way off right now, but let's keep in mind the boys baseball plans, and roust out some volunteers to help put this program over. The program will be in cooperation with the Salt Lake County Re-creation Dept. where the young-sters will get plenty of practice with adequate equipment. The actual games will be play-ed later mi the afternoon or. ev-ening, and these games are where we will need a couple of hours help each week from volunteer managers and umpires.
