Chris Hirning, chairman of this year's feast, said tickets salesmen will be canvassing Brigham City businesses Thursday and Friday. "However," Hirning said, "if anyone is missed or if individuals wish to purchase tickets they will be on sale at the Chamber of Commerce office and the Box Elder News Journal," The Merchants Outing is held annually and in most cases the boss buys tickets for his employees. "This gives each employer a chance to say thanks for a job well done." Hirning went on. Anyone attending the outing will be required to have one of this year's yellow tied on to his or her clothing. This entitles the bearer to barbequed beef, corn on the cob and many other delicious trimmings, plus beer and cold pop. Also, a program of local talent will be in store for those attending. Tickets are the same priqe this year as in the past, Hirning said, $1.75 each. tag-ticke- Volume 59, Number 30 Br gham City, Utah, 84302, Thursday Morning, July 28, ts Census Indicates Tuesday Next 2, Tuesday, Aug. will mark the first of three voter registration days prior to the Sept. 13 primary elec-- , tlon In Box Elder county.
