Culture Enjoys Musical Program On Tuesday, November Dragerton Welfare Fund has tentatively agreed to help organize an athletic club for the young boys of the community. In this area of ours where the facilities are so definitely limited for the youngsters it is a most worthwhile undertaking. This is an excellent opportunity to get started a boys club that will give play to the abundance of energy which these youngsters have. At presend they have too few places to work- - off this energy. Ned Arambula will se.rve as instructor without compensation. Included in the activities planned will be boxing, tumbling, weight lifting, all types of calisthenics, track activities such as running races, shot put, javelin throw and disc. In addition tot the above school board is working on plan to install two hand courts in the gymnasium at East Carbon school. 9 Cul- To Be Held M-M- en M-M- The plan to served by Hostesses ing fund make this an outstanding year. and Mrs Mihalik. en Guests of Rotary Club Monday Night 9 V;' fit ' Af the the ball the Prospective Members Of New Eagle Order have ture members enjoyed a program Dragerton MIA chosen for their leader, Robert presented by piano and violin students of Mrs. Ruby Mihalik Vaught.

In time it is hoped that a regular gymnasium can be built with a swimming pool adjacent to it. The unlimited coking coal in East Carbon assures this area of a permanence that few other mining communities have. It is very commendable, that individuals are looking forward to the welfare of the children, to give to them the opportunity to develop physically and with leadership in sports. It is up to all of us to see that our children have as fine an opportunity to get to the top as any group of children have in this country. The group backing this club should be commended for the advance community thinking that they are doing for the benefit of all and particularly for the benefit of the children.
