KHS final criisis want honor For several years it has been realized by many that this area is blessed with many gifted artists. It is also a fact that they are handicapped in not having a display place to permanently their work, year round. In an effort to overcome this barrier local artists and any other interested individuals are invited to an organizational meeting at the home of Kay Button at 8 p.m. on June 22. Hopefully at this meeting an art league will be organized with officers being elected, goals set and finding ways to create public interest in art exhibits. It is noted that in some places even old barns have been renno-vate- d and made into ideal Art Barnes where art is displayed, with distinguished artists exhibiting as well as the local novice. Why shouldnt we have a place of our own instead of traveling a couple of hundred miles to an art exhibit, saiu Miss Button, in discussing the upcoming meeting. n arWe could have tists exhibit their paintings right in our own communities if we had a place for them, she said. Such a place has been a dream of local artists for many years, but only through organizing can such a goal be realized. well-know- school year With the 1969-7- 0 completed it is reported that fifteen Kanab High School students achieved a straight A record for the year.

The past president, Edna Button, received a gift from the club for her services. Deanna Glover was presented with a book with her picture in it for outstanding Club Woman. Lola Swapp gave a report on Womens Federated Club convention which she attended. Marshal Kelly was strong in stating the dangers of this type activity, and asked cooperation of parents and merchants in controlling any such activities. He stated that those using these things in order to achieve the high feeling, usually find their mouth very dry and will often try to cover up the smell of the plastic or glue with strong doses of after shave or cologne. He also asks merchants who may have these materials for sale to be aware of who buys them and how much, even keeping the names of those who may use the materials in this manner. The effects of inhaling these fumes can be extremely dangerous. In fact the state pathologist has gone on record as saying thev are more dangerous than marijuana, and that is not to diminish the seriousness of marijuana. Marshal Kelly also reported an early morning break in Monday of this week at Fenton Rexall. The glass portion of the front door was broken and entry was made at that point. However, some Indian boys, working at the Parry Lodge heard the noise and ran into the street to see what was happening. The burglars saw them and immediately left. A bulletin has been sent out on a suspected car. nothing was disturbed in the store according to Kelly. The judge handling the case is p.esently checking with the citv attorney and says the youths will be tried. She is Captain of the Margery Stewart Camp, Daughters of Utah Pioneers, the sponsoring organization.
