In addition to the usual generous representation from local organizations there will be added features coming from Salt Lake City on the north to Richfield on the south. American Fork, Provo, and Nephi cities have preserved several outstanding units for participation in the Payson parades and other surrounding communities are cooperating with hands, national guard, and other features.

World Wide Publicity Given to Payson Boy The grim tragedy last week ichin the Artie Circle when the beloved Will Rogers and Wiley w Post met death when their plane crashed near Point Barrow, Alaska, brought world wide publicity to a Payson boy. Staff Sergeant Stanley R. Morgan of the U. S. Army, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Morgan of Payson in charge of the Armys radio station at Point Barrow was the person who heard the faltering story of the mishap from an Eskimo who had run the entire fifteen miles from the wreck to Barrow to tell of the tragedy, three hours after the crash. After repeated) questioning he found out enough to know that Rogers and Post had crashed. He quickly assembled a crew of 14 Eskimos and departed in an open whale boat with a small gas motor. Hamjiered by ice floes, adverse current, fog and darkness they finally reached the wreck and returned to Barrow with the bodies and then flashed the news to the world. Sergeant Morgan has served for almost 12 years in the signal corps and for a number of year has been at Point Bartow, the northernmost white settlement in America. His son, Barrow Morgan, 5, was the first white child bom In the settlement, Joseph C. Morgan returned home last September from a visit of 18 months with his son and family in Alaska. Official recognition for service given by Sergeant Morgan in connection with the crash was accorded Monday by Major General Paul Malone, commander of the ninth corps area. lie praised him very highly for the way in which he handled the situation and commended him in the highest terms for the excellent judgement and initiative displayed. For his efficient work, the war department at Washington on Tuesday promoted him to the rank of master sergeant, highest noncommissioned grade in the U. S. Army. Thomas C.
