' inves-new-ty- pe j BAND TOURNAMENT INVITATIONS ' GO TO May LOST TO CARBON AS BILL PASSES An important source of revenue was lost to Carbon county Thursday when the Utah state senate passed house bill' No. 151, which specifies the money that is to go into the new "uniform school fund. Under this measure, Carbon countys share of coal royalties returned to Utah by the federal government goes into the state school fund. The bill which gave Carbon county a portion of the royalty rebate to the state was passed four years ago. This money represented fees paid to the government by Carbon coal mining companies in return for the privilege of operating federal lands. Other counties where this operating situation existed also benefited. The royalty returns to the county would have increased in years to come with the extension of mining activities on federal lands as the result of the inevitable depletion of the coal supply on private properties. Carbon and Emery representatives led a vigorous fight against the bill which places the royalty returns in the school fund, but le they were to muster sufficient support to halt the legislation. un-ab- During Past Week revival of marriage license business during the past week, after a dewas pression of close to three months, Clerk County reported Wednesday by B.

The junior college measure, introduced in the senate by Senator G. G. Lindstrom of Spring Canyon, passed both branches of the legislature by a big majority and was one of the first bills signed by Governor Henry H. Blood. However, the fate of the bill was in doubt until action was taken on appropriations during the final days of the session. Silas Rowley, chairman of the contact committee of the local organization that was formed several months ago to promote the college proposal, announced Tuesday that the state will make application for a P. W. A. allotment, which, it is hoped, will make a total of $272,727 available for construction of the junior college. Addoperating ing the $27,000 appropriation to this amount, the project at the start will involve something like $300,000. On their return Sunday from Salt Lake City, where they have been active in sponsoring the college bill, Mr. Rowley and County Commissioner William Engle expressed confidence that the federal funds would be forthcoming. The fact that the state will be the applicant is considered favorable in itself. Superintendent C. H. Skidmore of the state department of education indicated that action will be taken immediately on the application. Mr. Rowley said the tentative setup calls for three structures an administration building, a shop and a building combining a gymnasium and auditorium. The administration building, it is planned, would include departments for academic studies, agriculture, business and cosmetology, the latter course to be somewhat of an innovation in the Utah state educational system. Mining machinery will form an important part of the shop equipment, and a number of subjects based on this countrys chief industry will probably be offered, Mr. Rowley said. first-yea- rs New APPROPRIATION MADE FOR FETE Wednesday FOURTH ON To WILL Marking one of the most important educational advancements in the of eastern Utah, the state legislature Sunday completed action on a legislative measure providing for the establishment of a junior college in Price to serve this section of the state.

An address was given by Mrs. Viola OBerto on the history of the Price group, and talks were given by Mrs. Mae Bliss, Price; Mrs. A. C.
