The generous girls of the Synchronized Swim Club are in a dilemna. Their record player, which is kept at the swimming pool is missing and they need it badly. They have loaned it to so many clubs and various groups and somehow they have lost track of it. The girls are preparing for their water show and the record player which has a sound system and microphone combination is a must for their rehearsals. Anyone knowing its whereabouts please leave word at the pool and someone will pick it up. Thanks Public arm was probably tired before the float reached City Park.

Bonita Bushncll, Miss Freedom and her two attend 1956, Bit & Spur Rodeo Reported As Best Thursday noon the money received from the liberal public citizenry of Tooele had reached the $200 mark, towards the goal of $1,000 to close the gap on the money needed to finance the Tooele High School Band trip to the Seattle Worlds Fair, next month, to officially represent the State on Utah Day. The $10,000 needed to finance the band trip was $1500 short of its mark this week, with band members exerting all their power to assist in reaching the final goal. The most optimistic figure that the band member effort may reach is $500, which would leave them $1,000 short of the money needed to make the journey. The Transcript and Bulletin have faith in the thought that there are at least one hundred individuals and organizations who will each donate their little bit to reach or pass the $1,000 goal. By way of suggestion, it would take only $10 each from one hundred donors to make up the necessary amount. Here is the donor list up to noon Thursday: MR. AND MRS. TED GILLETTE, $35 MR. AND MRS.
