We also hope that the cattlemen planning to attend the convention have their motel reservation already made. We drove through town Wednesday evening about 9 p.m. and it looked as though the town was filled clear up from looking at the no vacancy signs looks like business is good. Last Friday some relatives from Salt Lake City talked us into leaving our much beloved workshop a few hours and iraveling to Grand Canyon. We got there in time see the sunset and then again the next morning enjoyed the sunnse over the majestic canyon a most beautiful sigh .. We talked briefly with Jack Church ai the Lodge. Jack informed us that contrary to some reports, the trail into the canyon will be open and ready for travel on July 20. Some reports had it that ihc trail would not be open at all this are not trueit will be open next week. (Well have to charge Jack for that commercial:) yeat--the- se Forace Green, in his About Town column is a little critical of the way news of the Governor's priority cur Lake Powell was released. This just goes io prove a point which we have joked about somewhat. That is We are the last to bear of anything new. We agree with Mr. Green, news of this soi t should have been released by our County Com mission to the local newspaper. Al Biain, of KSL in Sail Lake City, has lxcn in Kanab this week trying to get some stories about the movies for KSL Radio and TV. We don't watch as much TV as wc might like to, so may have missed some of his spots. But suggest you watch Channel 5 and l i us know what went on. (How about that, another commercial.) May w'c draw your attention to the letter to the editor found on page two of this week SUNews? This is really a nice tribute to ihe folks at Alton, and brings up a thought that has n . . . . bouncing around in our empty head recently. How long has it been since Kanab held a Patriotic Assembly on July 4th? We recall in years past when we had some real interesting patriotic assemblies in the old Ward Hall. We looked forward to them even as youngsters. Makes one wonder if our failure to spon sosuch meetings on patriotism may have something to do with the lack of respect for the Constitution being displayed over the country these days. In this day of flag desecrators, draft card burners, sit inners, peace walks, sit outers, and sit onners, etc, etc., it makes one wonder if we are not letting our young people forget what the Fourth of July really stands for and what the Constitution really means to us in this land of - freedom. Perhaps we are all to blame all of us who are too busy to take part in or help sponsor a patriotic assembly and so forth. Races and games are fine and lun, but do they really teach youth the meaning of freedom? We received a phone call this week from Mr. John Skow of the Saturday Evening Post in New York. He is planning to arrive in Kanab this weekend to do a story about Ka-nab- . He will be here about a week and will talking with several citizens of the area in order to get ihe materia lie wants. This should result in some very good publicity for our area. We are looking forward to meeting with him. t-- In the About Town column this week, Mr. Green lias also mentioned the It's Fun To Be In Kanab slips which are being filled out by tourists. Carol Barnson of Chef's Palace Restaurant (another commercial! brought in a slip to us just before press time to use as our "chuckle for today. In the Other Suggestions area of the slip the tourist wrote This is a beautiful city good for the nerves, very friend very quiet ly." To those of us who are trying Vo eck a living out of the desert, as it were, that good for the nerves bit might get not a chuckle but a horse laugh. However to the traveler we are sure the peaceful, beautiful surroundings of this area are most enjoyable and conducive to peace of mind. So then all we nix'd to do is be travelers right?

Of these, 580 were hired to fill rr w posts with the remaining 1,251 signed to fill vacancies resulting from the death, resignation, transfer, or retirement of existing teachers. Most of the openings for new teachers in Utah, according to the study, are filled by recent graduates of Utahs six training institutions. Of the 1,834 new teachers employed last year, 1,319, or 72' i were 1966 graduates of Utahs colleges, 295 had previous year in some other state, with the 220 consisting of to- to er teachers returning to leaching or teacher graduates from former years entering the tea. !: ing rank for the first time. taught tlie California supplies nearly o u fourth tile teachers ho taug I the previous year in some oiiief state.
