One tribute bdng planned for the cagers is the annual banquet and program sponsored by the Murray City firemen. The event will bo held April 6 in the firemen's hall. William Ringrose is chairman for the function and is being assisted by Chris Glavas and Ray Lindberg. All firemen will participate. Even in their loss, the Murray team won many plaudits for the the spirited play throughout tournament. The. local cagers held tie the 13. Y. quintet to a during the first half of play, a defensive feat unmatched by any other team to face the champions. For the creat defensive play of the team, The Salt Lake Tele gram heaped praise on Coach Cleo Petty by selecting Murray as the best defensive team in the state. Captain John Wood came in is for his hare of honors, too. spirited play drew comments from opposing players as well as the exnert observers.

Openshaw, Jr., who has served as Executive Secretary of the Murray City Chamber of Commerce for the past six months has terminated his services with the Chamber as of March 15, 194H to enter a private business. At the regular mooting of the Board of Governors held Friday March 13, 1949, the Board accepted Mr. Openshaw's resignation with a hearty vote of thanks for the splendid service that he has rendered the Chamber of Commerce. Several applicants for the position of Secretary are being considered by the Board of Governors, but no o.ficial action will be taken until the first meeting of the Board following the annual meeting, April 13, 1949, at which meeting three persons will be elected to the membership of the Board of Governors. Ballots are boing prepared for the voting membership to vote for three out of the seven nominees. Those nominated and to be voted upon at the next general meeting are as follows: Earl Marshall, Don Blair, J. Leo Jensen, Wilfrid Tyler, John Dav, Frank Bromley, and Max Gilbert. At the regular meeting of the Chamber at the Teen-Ag- e Club Wednesday afternoon, the major portion of the meeting was consumed in discussing the subject of encouraging Murray and Salt Lake County citizens to buy in Murray. Pres. W. Douglas Allen related the fact that a survey on one particular commodity which sales could be particularly identified disclosed that Murray citizens purchased 600 more of this commodity in Salt Lake City than in Murray from December 1, 1948, to March 1. 1949, while at the same time 800 more, of this commodity was sold 'in Midvale than in Murray. It was further stated that while this comparison may not be a fair example of most staple commodities, it is recognized that many citizens of Murray purchase commodities in Salt Lake City which could readily bo obtained irt Murray City at equal price. The power plant will be ready the public inspection next week end, Mayor J. Clifford Hansen said Thursday. -j I n HHri .7 V tJrmh Y Shown inspecting generator in recently-enlarge- d Murray City power plant on west 48th South Thomas H.

The, city commission is ex pending considerable! time in get ting everything in readiness so the citizens and other Murray City power users can see what a modern plant the city finally has developed. The public inspection was called at this time because the recently completed project doub ling the size of the building and more than doubling the plant's power output. To make the trip through the plant interesting, the commission will assign guides to explain the functions of the various equipment, including the two new diesel engines. A point of interest and admiration is certain to be the control room, where dials show the demand and the output of each engine. To further enhance the inspection, signs will be on the machines so residents actually can trace the power they use in their homes as it is being developed in the plant. The city commission is sending an invitation to every Murray City Power user to attend the public inspection. One thing visitors are certain to marvel at is the cleanliness inside the plant. The workers e keep the plant as clean as a can almost see his own face reflected when he looks at the shining floor. Another feature to be emphasized during the three-da- y is ihc" K.aIla'Jx,n, unique at the Murray plant, which allows the city to use heavy, cheaper oil. This installation of pipelines and tanks heats tho oil so it will flow and at the same time cools the water from the big engines. The savings of this installation is estimated at $90 a day, Mayor Hansen said. pin-On- "open-Lous- c" Firemen Happy Siren Quieter Murray City Firemen, pleased over the addition of a new piece of equipment, received somewhat a respite the past week after answering a hectic series of calls the previous week. The volunteers last Friday answered two calls, one to 300 East 59th South, where the crowd gathering at a chicken coop fire praised the firemen for their quick response. The damage was slight. The fire was started when high winds spread a rubbish fire. The other call was to 241 West 54th South where a grass fire threatened chicken coops and other buildings owned by Roy Williams. The firemen reported no damage. Grass fires also were beaten out on Saturday and Monday. The Saturday blaze was at 365 Jensen Lane, and the Monday fire was at 57 West 53rd South. No damage was listed at either place. The new piece of equipment the firemen received from the " fire excity was a will a that dry powder tinguisher, enable the department to more effectively fight gasoline and oil flames.
