UTAH, JULY 17. 1925 v NO. 29 JACOBSOrj BUYS TREJELLING'S - Salt Lake Merchant Putt Faith in Bingham Canyon and Purchatei Large Stock. To Remodel ' aMM- - Mr. S. Jacobson of Salt Lake City has purchased during the past week the entire stock of gent's wearing ap-parel from Arthur F. Tremelling, and from now on the new place will he known as "Jacobson's." .Mr. Jacob-so- n needs no introduction to the peo-ple of Bingham Canyon for he has been engaged in the mercantile busi-ness. in the state of Utah for the past thirty years. Many new changes will be made at once according to Mr. Jacobson ,the first being the remodeling of the front, making but one entrance, and leaving ample space for two spac-ious display windows. The interior will also be remodeled ,and the en-tire stock will be changed around to conform with the latest methods of merchandising. ' Mr. Jacobson will be remembered as being at the head of the Day and Night Clothes Shop in Salt Lake, which made such a pronounced suc- -' cess. Mr. Aaron Jacobson ,a son, will al-so he located in the new store, and being young and full of up to date methods, will no doubt add much to the establishment. In speaking of the new venture, Mr. Jacobson said, "Yes, we like Bing-ham Canyon ,and have always wanted to get located here, but the right op-portunity never afforded itself. We are going to try and give the people of the town real merchandise at real prices, and will keep on the best the market affords." . NEW APPARATUS ARRVES HERE Latest Model American-L- a France Fir Fighting Device Makes Its Appearance on Sunday. Demon-stration Given. The much-looked-f- American-L- a France Fire Apparatus, which was purchased by the town of Bingham Canyon a month ago, arrived safely at its new home Sunday morning at 11 o'clock under the guidance of Louie A. Beierwalter, mechanic from the factory, who will remain in camp for several days acquainting the mem-bers of the local Fire .Department in its functions. That the new truck is the latest is shown in the fact that the machine was made for the Denver salesroom of the company, and was not to be delivered until the middle of August, thus showing Bingham Canyon to be just thirty days ahead of any city or town in the United States as far as modern fire fighting equipment is concerned. Mr, Beierwaltes, in speak-ing of the new truck, declared that it wa sthe highest form of fire fighting apparatus he had ever seen ,and that when it landed in Salt Lake City, the members of that fire department rav-ed over the wonderful equipment, and wanted to change pumps. A demonstration of the new truck was given last Sunday afternoon at the play grounds, and it is said to have shown enough power to convince the most skeptical. A record run was made Monday evening, when the truck was taken to Sopperton, and leaving at 9:20 it arrived at Copper-fiel- d at exactly 9:31, making the dis-tance through town and up hill in just eleven minutes. . Of course it must be remembered that Mr. Beierwaltes was at the wheel, but it is a certainty that when other members., of the fire depart-ment become acquainted with ' the mechanism of the new; truck the same results will be obtained.' FIRE FIGHTERS HOLDJIEETIIIC Joint Session of Two Companies Held at Hall No. 1 Tuesday Evening Provee to Be Best of Year. "Hey, how do jje expect me to get along side of that big hose,' yelled Johnnie Jackson ,and that sounded the keynote for the regular monthly meeting of Fire Companies Kos. 1 and 2 held at Hall No. 1, Tuesday evening of this week, . Johnnie said a mouthful, for the greater part of the evening was used in discussing the new fire truck re-cently purchased by the Town of Bingham Canyon, which arrived here Sunday morning of this week. Mr. Louie A. Beierwaltes, repre-sentative of the American-L- a France Company, gave splendid talk on the new apparatus, declaring it to be the latest model yet to be delivered by his company. He was profuse in his' praise of the machine, stating it was made as a model for the Denver branch office and that the Denver outfit would have to wait at least 90 days to get another one, as that is the time allowed for the making of new machine. . . Thirty members of the two com-panies were in attendance, and all seemed much interested in hearing of the new fire fighting machine as it fills a long felt want, and according to reports, the local firemen will now be able to compete with any in the state. - It was announced that Ross Mar-riott of Company No. 2 had been ap-pointed by the City Dads to take charge of the new truck during the ' night shift, and it is said he will have sleeping quarters in Hall No. 1 so that in case of a night fire he will be on band to start forth. Chief of Police Frank Thompson was an-nounced as being in charge of the new truck during the day. Several firemen will be taught )h mechanism of the new truck, It was two-fcgul- are . 1 iidl4?jMS not afhand there will always be some one ready to take the" wheel The meeting was featured by i get-- . . eral discussion, with everyone taking part, and the boys went home well satisfied that results had' been ichiev- - ' ed. PEOPLE SMILE I ATJREJOKE County Commissioners Promise to Start Road Work Causes Consider-able Hilarity Among Those Who Know. "Just hold your shirt on, and you wilt see that the Bingham Canyon road will be straightened before fall," said a county commissioner once up-on a time, and it has become a sort of standing joke with the natives of Bingham Canyon. Not so much a joke, because of the fact that, the straightening out process has not started, but because the people of this vicinity allow county commissioners to kid them along, and continue to be-lieve all that is told them. Perhaps the county commissioners feel they can do the work in a few days, but it is the consensus of opin-ion that they will have to get busy pretty soon or pass it up. Speaking of the speed with which the county commissioners think their men work, it may not be amiss to tell the following: Old Zeb was operating on his barn with a brush somewhat the wore for age. The squire pass-ing by, suggested, "Zeb, if you had a brush with more bristles in it, you could do twice as much work." After turning the matter over in his mind for a minute, Zeb re-plied, "Mebbe so, Squire, mebbe so-o-- o. Only you see, Squire, I ain't got twice aa much work to do." There is a possibility that the com-missioners feel that way about it, and bein' as how "they ain't got twice a much work to do" they do not have to start so soon, but nevertheless the people of this community would like to see a little action, just enough to let the natives of this camp feel that they were not fooled, and that there will be a little work done this sum-mer toward straightening .the last stretch of toad leading-- ttftf the can: yon. Of course there is a possibility the commissioners will wait until next summer, because there will be another election in 1926 ,and there is usually plenty of road work done when an election looms. TEACHERS HOMES i GREATLY NEEDED Living Conditions for Those Who Teach Children of Camp Are Poor-est in State, Time to Get Busy. ' Where will the teachers, who will soon arrive in Bingham Canyon to teach, live during the coming winter? Where will all of them find accom-modations that befit their vocations? This question remained unanswered last year, and according to reports will remain the same this year for all that is being done. It is not a ques-tion of whether a teacher has a room or not, but has she a place she can call HOME? It is alleged that nothing has been done thus far this summer to relieve the situation, and with school but six weeks away it behooves the powers that be to get busy, and get busy at once. It is a disgrace to even think of what is expected of a teacher who devotes her time to teaching the youngsters of Bingham Canyon. First, she is expected to live in a public rooming house, second she must eat at a restaurant; third, if she is teach-ing in Copperfield or Highland Boy, she must either take her chances on getting a room in these districts, or else have the privilege of riding back and forth. Last year, according to those who know, teachers who taught in High-land Boy were forced to leave as early as seven in the morning to be to their schools in time. This condition should not exist, and yet it did, and will again. As has been said, ground for a new building at Highland Boy has been offered to the Jordan School District for the building of a home for the teachers of that section, and it has been said that although the local rep-resentative of the board was notified, the other members of the Jordan Dis-trict have not been told. Surely there can be no secret at. tached to the offering of .a place Jo a home for Highland Boy teachers, then why the secrecy? Why haven't the .board members been notified of the fact? If there is to be anything done to relieve the situation, it must be done at once, for winter will soon be here, and then it will be impossible to 'get action. Will the members of the board of education of the Jordan school dis-trict get busy, and give the teacher? of Bingham Canyon suitable places of residence during the coming win-ter? How old is Ann? ARTHUR UNARY APPOINTED HEAD j OF JAN TOR SERVICE AT MEETING Board of Education of Jordan School District Votes to Uphold Choice of Local Representative, and Offering of Petition for of Benjamin Barrett, Incumbent, Has But Little Value. j Arthur Con nary was appointed Engineer and Custodian of the Bingham Central Schoojs at a meeting of the Board of Education of the Jordan School District, held at Sandy Thursday of last week, according to W. W. Wilson, president of the Board. Mr. Connary will succeed Benjamin Barrett, who for the past seven years has cared for the heating and comforts of the school children of Bingham Canyon. , ' '' " Mr. Connary took possession of the school buildings about two weeks ago, or just one week prior to his appointment, it has been reported, show-ing that the petition, which was circulated in behalf of Iff. Barrett, was merely a waste of time, as the appointment, it if alleged, was "cut and dried" before it ever came before the meeting of the board. In speaking of the appointment, Mr. Wilson said,1 "Yes, it is true that Mr. Connary has been appointed to succeed Mr. Barrett as Engineer and Custodian pf the Bingham Central Schools, the appointment being made upon the recommendation of Mr. C. L. Countryman, your district representative of the Board," i "But didn't the board consider the petition offered in behalf of Mr. Barrett, his ability, his faithfulness, and his knowledge of fur-naces?" was asked. j "We did that, but your representative promised that he would personally guarantee the work of the new appointee, that he would personally see that the new man would do his work right, and as i a custom with the board, it rarely takes a negative stand upon any appointments which are made by the different districts," answered Mr. Wilson. j . "Do you feel then that the board did the right thing; in appoint-ing man, who has to be guaranteed, as against a man who has PROVEN for the past seven years that he is the right man for the job without anyone promising to see that he does his work?" "Well, yon must remember that we have received several com-plaints about the buildings not being as clean as they should be," continued Mr. Wilson, "and we must have cleanliness in our schools." "When were you first notified of this extraordinary condition in our Bingham Canyon schools, Mr. Wilson?" "Oh, quite a while ago, I don't just remember when it was." "Don't you think, Mr. Wilson, that if Mr. Barrett had been told of this, the ill could have been remedied?" v "Yes, I suppose it wouldn't have hurt matters to have told him." "And do you mean to infer, that there is not the least particle of politics in the operation of the Jordan School District?" "I certainly do." "Why, then, Mr. Wilson, wasn't Mr. Barrett notified of his short-comings relative to keeping the school buildings dean," and why was he not tendered a contract at the close of the school term?' "You must understand that it has been a sort of unwritten law . that cacti district .coounissloner.has right to appoint fonaie sees. . . fit, and his appointment is usually accepted by the entire' board." "Granted, Mr. Wilson, but why should a new appointment be made when the incumbent is doing his work in a satisfactory man-ner? Is that the custom or unwritten law?" "Ahem Huh, we 11, Mr. Countryman guaranteed Mr. Connary's work." "But, Mr. Wilson, we are speaking in general terms, and not about a certain condition." "We U, of course, that is, we try to keep politics out of the functioning of the Jordan School District" "Isn't it a known fact, Mr. Wilson, that the men who are em-ployed in YOUR district NOW as custodians and engineers were working in that capacity years before you were elected?" "Yes, that is true." "Why, Mr. Wilson, didn't you fire them and put in your own friends." "Because they did their work in a satisfactory manner." "But don't you think that Mr. Barrett did likewise?" "You must remember that I am not running the Bingham Can-yon district," said Mr. Wilson. "On the face of things, Mr. Wilson, wouldn't you think that there has been a creeping in of small peanut politics in the appointment of a new Custodian?" "Well, Ahem er ah that is, er, Well, of course erh'm, that is . ..Mr. Sam Jacobson, who'" recently purchased the stock of furnishing goods from Arthur Tremelling, an-nounced during the week that he will give three shirts to the players of the Utah Copper and Utah Apes ' ball teams on next Wednesday afternoon when these two dubs meet again on the home grounds. The shirts, which will be a pick of the very best in stock will be given, first to the player making the most runs during the game; second, to the player with the best batting average; and the third shirt will be given to the player making the first home run, and should the players fail to regis-ter a circuit clout, the first three bag-ger will take the prize, etc Mr. Aaron Jacobson, junior mem-ber of the new store in speaking of the gifts said, "We were not in Bing-ham Canyon when the merchants gave the prizes a short time ago, and being boosters for everything that boosts Bingham Canyon, we decided to give three of our best shirts to the ball players. We are strong for all branches of clean sports and we don't care who knows it." BETTER SERVICE ... JElfjpiMISED Postmaster Boyd Barnard Announces Extension of Routes in Hopes of Bettering Conditions. People of Bingham Canyon will re-ceive a greatly improved mail deliv-ery it was announced by Postmaster Boyd Barnard, providing the people with him. The new plan, as announced by the local Postmaster, would include free delivery service to every house in the town. The people of Markham liv-ing above the bridge would get de-livery service ,as would the people of Freeman above the city limits, and also the people on the right hand side of the street below the Citizens Coal and Supply office. Heretofore, mail service was only given to those living within the city limits, but Mr. Barnard, with a little assistance of the residents of these outlying districts can supply regular service. Here is what the people have to do: Go to the City Hall, ask for a , . number for the house, and then erect a small mail box in front of the house, and list your name with the postmaster. This seems but x a trivial request in return for free mail service. People of these sections of the town, attend to this matter at once as Mr. Bar-nard is very desirous of adding your section to his list. Highland Boy, starting Monday of this week, is receiving two deliveries a day it was announced, thus giving every section of Bingham Canyon two deliveries a day, Copperfield hav-ing had this service for the past three months. COPPER CLIMBS' TO FIRST PLACE Rally in Eighth and Ninth Innings Paves Way for 9 to 8 Victory Over Arthur. ' ' The fast going Utah Copper base-ball team showed in a conclusive manner that the yare to be contend-ers for the championship of the sec-ond half Sunday afternoon when they won an uphill game from the league leading Arthur club, 9 to 8, after two rallies, one in the eighth and one in the ninth. . , To "Tuffy" Stillman goes the hon-or of hero, for it was his lusty clout down the third base line in the last of the ninth that sent in . the three , runners, with the tying and winning runs. . Piper started on the hilltop for the Miners, but got into trouble in the third, and Jerry Dunn took. up the pitching duties.. Jerry was hit rath-er hard in the early innings, but he tightened up, and in the last four frames the visitors had considerable trouble getting men on base. "' Elmer Burt, curve ball artist, start-ed for the Millmen, and did fine work ' for five innings, folding the Miners . s'corclesst and allowing but four scat- - ' tered hits. In the sixth the home boys got to him for three runs,' and started after him again in the seventh, when Draper took the box and stop-ped scoring in that inning. In the eighth Mr. Draper tasted a morsel of pep as released by the fighting Cpp- - . per lads, and three more runs jwere ' registered. Iii the ninth, after Jhe ' first three men to face him arrived safely at their destination, he was pulled for Gleaves.1 This .outfielder took the mound as Mr. Stillman came ' to the bat, and what happened is now history, but it might be said that Still- - man delivered, and the crowd went home in a happy frame of mind, . Arthur started to score in the ini . , tial frame when Peery walked, went , to second on Mohler's hit to left, and ,. . scored when Baty and Swensen eifed. Three tnore visiting runs were reg- - j (Continued on Page 4) . ADDIE MILLER SKIDS IN FIFTH Magna Twirler Chased from Mound at Half Way Period and Apex Play-ers Win 11 to Features Codtest. Addie Miller, pitcher for the Magna baseball team of the Copper League caved in during the fifth inning of the Apex-Magn- a game at Utah Cop-per ball park Wednesday afternoon, and before he left the mound six Apcxcrs had spiked the rubber, and before Lott, his successor could stop things, two more runners crossed the plate, with the result that the Apex emerged winner 11 to 7, and went into a tie with the Copper team for sec-ond place and chased Magna into the cellar. ' For four innings, Miller gave one of the greatest pitching exhibitions ever seen in Bingham Canyon, mow-ing the Miners down in order ,and the only man who reached first base .was Walbcck, who received a pass in the second inning. In the fourth inning he fanned Bosone, Fitz-patri-and Flciger in a row. Burrows took the box for the Apex and although he emerged a winner, he was not up to his usual high stand-ard, as the visitors annexed 16 hits, including homers by Myers and Eg-bert. Egbert also sent out a triple to the right field fence. Burrows used a cross fire throughout the game, which seemed to meet with the ap-proval of the Magna batters. Miller's downfall came i nthe fifth, when Walbeck, first man up, sent a single through short. Henderson, in going after the ball, slipped and fell, the clout going for a homer. From then on there was nothing to it, every member of the Apex team hitting safe-ly until Manager Howard sent Lott to the mound, who partially stopped the avalanche, which netted the home team 8 runs. Apex cinched the game in the 8th when three more runs were register-ed. - (Continued from Page 1) ARTHUR CANS COPPER LEAD "Red" Peery in Great Form, Holds Miners to Six Scattered Hits, Al-lowing Millmen to Annex 8 to 4 Victory. "Red" Peery of the Arthur team was in great form Wednesday after-noon, with the result that the Cop-per team was chased out of first place to the tune of 8 to 4. The Arthur southpaw had but little trouble annexting the game, keeping the six hits made off his delivery scattered, and only in the ninth were the Miners, able to get more than one bingle in an inning. Glynn started on the mound for the visitors, but received a severe trounc-ing in the sixth ,and gave way to Greshner, who finished the game with-out a score being made. Arthur scored first blood in the third when they made one run. Peery sent one far into right field' for the initial tally. In the fourth they made three more. Facer started with a walk, and went to second on Webb's single to center. Baty erred on Flint's roller ,an dthen Peery cleaned the bases with a triple to left field. In the sixth the last four Arthur runs were recorded. With two out, Curtis tripled to left, and scored on Mohler's single to the same place. Gleaves singled left, and then Barrett sent Mohler home with a timely swat to center ,and Gleaves registered on Buckles' error. Barrett scored on a wild pitch. Copper's first run came in the fifth. With two out, Baty was safe on Flint's error, and both he and Mor-le- y scored when Curtis let his hit get away. - One more was added in the sixth (Continued on Page 3) WORK ON ISIS THEATER SHOWS RAPID PROGRESS That the new Isis Theater will be ready by the middle of August is made manifest by the great amount of workmen now being used on the job. Changing the original plans, Mr. J. Kerikas, owner of the new the-ater decided that it would be better to have a full sized stage, a stage large enough to entertain vaudeville or any shows that might happen to come to Bingham Canyon. The new stage,' although taking up space for eighty seats will aid mater-ially to the edifice, as it is the in-tention of the management to give the people vaudeville at least twice a week. : The shortage of eighty seats will be well cared for by the erection of a balcony .another new innovation. Al-though no definite date has been set, the new theater will have its grand opening on August IS, it is said. UTAH COPPER FIELD DA!

The Bingham Stage Lines will care for the picnickers, and stages will start leaving Bingham Canyon as early as seven in the morning, and continue until everyone is safely located in Liberty Park. Liberty Park was chosen this year according to the committee, because of its accessability ,and with the stage line giving its usual faultless service, the waiting for trains, and the leaving at a certain time will be eliminated. People may come and go as they see fit, and according to those in charge of the transportation, there will be stages handy all day long at Liberty Park ,and when a load is ready to leave for home they will be accommodated. An added feature of the day's entertainment will be the big free dance which will be held at the Cinderella Gardens, which has been chartered to the Utah Copper Company for that day, with the celebrated Fisher orchestra in attendance. Stages will also be stationed at the Gardens to care for those who attend. At Liberty Park there will be free Merry-Go-Roun- d and aeroplanes for the kiddies, while for the older folks there will be free bathing, with the proviso that you bring your own bathing suits. There will be two swim-ming pools, one for the boys and one for the girls. Free movies will also be offered in the evening. Hawkins' Band of Salt Lake City, and the Canyon Concert Band of Bingham Canyon will furnish music throughout the day. It was announced that the round trip fare on the stage would be $1.10, which means from any part of the camp, Copperfield and Highland Boy Tickets will be sold at the stage line office on August 7, and a com-mittee will be on hand to assist the Stage Line company. The executive committee of the Mines department include Clyde Brady chairman, G. B. Covey, Al Higby, Ned Gaythwaite and Jack Robertson. NEW MANAGER . Mr. E. J.
