IDE -- Committee We hope that you haven't forgotten that Friday night is the the annual Junior big event Prom. The Juniors have been working very hard and everything is in readiness for the elaborate affair. There has been some controversy over the formal part of the dance and the final conclusion was that the Junior prom will be semi forJunior high, mal for everyone senior high and townspeople, alike. That is, it is left up to the individual whether they wear formals or not. It is not being held down to a stirctly formal dance, so formal or not, come out and have a good time. It has also been decided by the students and the faculty that corsages will be forbidden this year because of the war. In other schools corsages are forbidden and we believ that it is our patriotic duty not to have them. The decorations for the prom this year are going to be somel, in spite of the thing fact that we have been limited The Juniors have financially. been working very efficiently and if nothing else, it will pay you to come out just to see the decorations. The Prom theme "Springtime In out beautifully in the decorations The Rockies" is to be carried out beautifully throughout the dance. Another special feature of the dance that no one will want ot miss is the promenade. Under the direction of Mrs. Redd and the of the Juniors, this is primised to be very elaborate and News of The Boys Serving The Country Theatre To Conduct Red Cross Drive During Week is reP.

Mr. Wade was taken to a Salt Lake hospital for observation following the accident, inasmuch' as it appeared that facial bones had been broken. The bicycle problem on Nephl's streets at night has been becoming increasingly critical during the past few weeks, with several people remarking sine Mr. Wade's injury that at times they have barely escaped a similar accident. The city ordinances require that on their ctfisU have lights bicycles when going at night, but the negligence of many of the younger people, together with the shortage of flashlight batteries, has prevented them from living up to this provision. It may be suggested, that those who must ride bicycles at night, either provide the necessary light, or ride off the Better still, in cases sidewalks. where it Is not absolutely necessary, the bicycles should be left at home if proper, lights cannot be provided.

Wade, manager of the Shall we get enough to eat If the war continues? What has hapWill pened to our food supply? rationing continue after the war? These and other questions Americans are asking are answered in this month's March of Time "America's Food Crisis" coming to the Venice Theatre here Sunday and Monday evenings. Besides scenes showing where our food has gone and is going, the film tells why l(ond-leashipments have not seriously cut our food supply, reveals some startling facts about our shortage and discusses the question: Can food win the war and write the peace. Britain's experinece with food rationing is shown, and the farmer's dilemma is discussed by Herbert Hoover and novelist, Louis Bromfield. Finally, the film reveals the part food will play in any post war program.

Maw vetoed SB 65, to provide a rebate of gasoline tax on fuel used In farm equipment not operated on the highways, he virtually admitted that the 25th Legislature had tied up all state funds so tightly that the governor; is unable to get his hands on even a few thousand dollars of state money. When the governor vetoed the gasoline tax rebate measure, he contended that no money to administer the act had been set up by the legislature and at the same time he admitted, at least by inference, that he could not get his hands on enough money to operate the proposed rebate system. This was a direct refutation of his earlier veto of SB 196 to allow diversion of sales tax, when he contended that he could divert the sales tax funds without legislative approval. In other words, the governor denies he can find $20,000 for the rebate system, but he believes he can find $1,600,000 for the welfare institutions, such as the mental hospital, training school and tuberculosis sanatorium. Having vetoed S. B. 196 which would have legalized the sales tax diversion. Governor Maw Is now faced with the question: "How are these institutions going to operate after July Of course, the governor Indicated when he vetoed SB 196 that he believes or at least he says that he has the power to transfer funds from sales tax revenue, but before any transfer Is made he must convince several other persons, some of whom already have expressed doubt as to the legality of such a diversion. These persons are members of the Board of Examiners Secretary of State E. E. Monson and Attorney General Grover A. Giles, and the state fiscal officers who would be directly In charge of the transfer and would be liable on their official bonds If the transaction later proved Illegal With the Attorney General already on record against the legality of such a tansfer, Governor Maw Is certain to find plenty of hurdles when he attempt to Juggle these funds.
