Murray City, Utah, Thursday, March 6, 930 1 Greater Murray League Local Mention Plan Future Activities Murray Hi Notes The executive committee of the Greater Murray League met Monday morning to devise ways and means of launching a program for The basketball season at Mura bigger and better City of Murray, ray High School, about to be con- it is hoped will merit the which sup- port of every business and professional man of the city. A full quorum of the members of the executive committee was present at the meeting and the wholehearted and enthusiastic manner in which they met the problems which confronted them is indicative of determined and united Kpirit among the members of the committee to do all in their power to perfect an organization in this city which will appeal to all thoRe interested in a business or professional way in the development of Murray. It is fully realized at the outset that the success of any plan upon the attitude of the local business men. In undertaking to build a new organization upon the ashes of the former movements of a similar nature, the committee must secure as a cornerstone the confidence of all iersons who look to Murray as their place of business. For this reason the committee is proceeding in a conservative manner, with the hope that the Iicague may Inspire business friends among the residents of Murray and surrounding territory and a spirit of cooperation among the business people of the city, which, it is confidently felt, will react for the benefit of all. It is the desire of the committee to give to the league a degree of dignity that similar organizations within the City have enjoyed in the past. In accordance with this idea a committee was appointed by Chairman A. O. Cooper to draft a set of for the Greater Murray by-la- I h 'r ft league, which will be presented to the members at the next regular meeting on March 13. The members of this committee are II. B. Smith, Clyde Tripp, Uoy Kingston and Glen E. Howe. It was decided that the League cluded, has been very successful in many ways. Starting the season with a new coach and four letter-men- , the boys were confident of success. Under the capable supervision of Coach Reed Swenson, it was predicted that Murray would do big things in the Jordan, district. Bingham, the annual champions, was favored to take the title again and at the present time they are sure of first place. Most of the teams in the leaagne are strong and Murray had the misfortune of loring two of the first three games by close scores after outplaying our opponents, Cyprus and Jordan respectively. 'lue team rallied and won a string of victories including the historic game with Bingham. That one game Is the only one Bingham has lost during the season. At present, Murray and the strong Cyprus five are tied for runner-uposition. Friday, March 7, Murray plays Bingham: Cyprus at Jordan. Naturally everyone predicts that the adds are against Murray, but the fighting spirit of the team Is expected to give the Bingham men a real battle. All we can say Is that the bey will do their liest to secure for Murray a second place position In entering the annual tournament; John Kastellc, Reporter. won first Vann Fatherlngham place In the Junior High School Oml Spelling contest which bus recently been conducted by the high school. and Is The contest Is state-wid- e sjonKorcd by the Salt Lake Tribune.

The public does not coudone the employment of officials simply to provide employment. If one man csn do the work of six, efficiently and well, Murray City will huve won the Indorsement of Its taxpayers. But there is another side to the argument. With all of Its demunds for economy, the public still wants and hois for municipal efficiency. It does not applaud financial saving which are made at the expense of public service. Six months from now, the resident of Murray should definite opinion le side to give concerning the present dejwirture. m Not alone In Murray City, but in Other sections, the public Job has been regarded ai omelhlng of a sinecure.
