As the gadgets float away into space the reactions from them are recorded in the laboratories at Hill Field, and the information used for various purposes involving aviation. ' Apparently the gadgets float through the air with the greatest of ease, and when the gas finally escapes from the balloon, the radio instrument drags it back to earth, to further prove the law of gravity. So if you find one of these gadgets, and you might find them anyplace, dont become alarmed its not the Commies in action, just the weathermap. . .

V 'i i t r d like to devote a bit of space this week to expressing the appreciation of the Roosevelt Standard and Uintah Basin Record for the exceptional response to our advertised subscription offer durjng the month of December . . . Approximately 79 new subscribers were added during the month, with quite a number of those being gifts from their relatives or friends. There isn't anything that pleases a newspaper publisher quite so much as when someone says, "Boy, that ad in the Gaaette sure brought me results" . . . "Boy that ad in the Record and Standard Mire brought us results - approximately 71 new subscribers and equally as many renewals." Now, our job is to make those people glad they invested $2.00 to $10.00 in their hometown paper during our special for the price of campaign. (Yep, one person subscribed for four more years and saved $2.00.) Thats our big job, and well surely try our durndest. v E v "JUST TO UNLOAD . . . . t . . .

Many citizens have voiced their opinion that this is one of the most dangerous intersections within Duchesne city, reports John P. Madsen, president of the quorum. Members of the quorum have met with the city council relative to extending the street lighting system to this corner. Survey of the project indicates that only two more light poles would be required on the north side of the street and three more on the south side of the street to make this street lighting extension, reports Mr. Madsen.

Basil Defa, Robert Michie and Rex Michle are sophomores, and that is the full roster. Tabiona knocked over Green-rive- r at Monticello in a pair of preleague games and Lillywhite expressed his pleasure by lauding the team work of his boys. He believes that teamwork will put the Tigers above the .500 mark this year. When Alterra makes the jaunt across Duchesne county Friday night to meet Tabiona, they go with new coach, Glen Allred, who is directing athletics at the Spartan school for the first time. Experience is the main thing he lacks, with only three men, Lynn Bracken, Doug Phillips, and Cloyde Wiscombe, back from last years team, which won only one game last year ip league competition. Juniors are Norman Angus. Kenneth Betts, Gwen Bodily, Bob Chapoose, Darrel Hall, Bill Harris, Brent Morrill, Marion Morrill. Elvin Rasmussen, Brice Searle and Clifton. Jenkins.

At guards. Coach Marcus Garrett will make his choice from John Benson. Scott Njckell, Dale Larsen and Russell Gingell, with the first guess being the former two. Coach Bill Smith, who has developed a smooth working crew at the Duchesne high school, is very pleased with the work done by Leo Brady, who he is certain to start at center. At forward will be either Rex Broadhead. Ron Robbins, Billy Harris, or Myron Taylor. Guards who will probably be sent to the firing line will be selected from Ted Marsing, Steve Beal, or Garth Partridge. Other squad members are Bert Young, Jack Wim-meRex Pearson and Doyle Harris. Tabiona has shown some surprising strength and their new coach, Joel Lillywhite, is convinced that his team will be tough to beat before the season gets too far along the way. He is faced with two major problems first, he is coaching at the next to smallest high school in Utah that is playing basketball; and second, he has no depth to his team. But what he lacks in size, the boys make up in determination and fight. Bennett Jose, captain. Ray- omore.

Last Sunday afternoon hundreds of relatives and friends met together to pay their last mortal respects to a man they had learned to love because of the high ideals he possessed, and the outstanding contributions he had made to his community, his state and his nation . . . Why did a man in his prime have to be denied the life he enjoyed so much? was the question asked repeatedly since the grim news was released that Lynn Orser was dead. No man knoweth the day or the hour when his Maker will beckon and he will respond to that call to come back No man knows the answer to that into His presence . But the Christian who believes in . . question a life hereafter has no fear of death, or any apprehension of the life that follows. It was not my good fortune to become acquainted with Lynn Orser I met him only once at a political rally last fall , . . But that short moment or two that I talked with d friendliness and him impressed me with his He made his desire to be a friend to all whom he met me, a stranger in this community, feel welcome. Aa I listened to the beautiful tributes paid Lynn Orser at his bier Sunday I thrilled that a man in the short space ef 27 years had achieved what he had achieved; that he had contributed so much to the lives of so many people in his betaved Uintah Easln and in the State of Utah. . . His had bean full life and at this hour he is enjoying an eternal red that comes with living a full life upon this earth. Time will never heal the deep wound that was inflicted in the hearts of his devoted wife, his aged mother, his children and his friends. . . There will always be a void in their lives . . . But, what joy must be theirs in the knowledge, that their loving husband, son, father and friend was held in such high esteem as Lynn Orser was held, by all who knew him.' Yoa Lynn Orser is dsadl . . . But the things he did here wCl live long after most ef us have passed beyond; and have earned him an eternal reward that Almighty God designs for these whose job are well done upon the earth. . It is toy humble hope and prayer that 4he bereaved that the bereaved family will take comfort in the assurance that in a short space of time they will again be reunited with the man who was such a joy and comfort to them while upon this earth. good-nature- ? 1950 ACTIVITIES REPORTED....
