Of UTAH STATI M DAY AFTER ELECTION Just wondering what happened Wed. to the IM morning large, BACKIN BRACKEN sign Earl Dillman was displaying in his front window of his office? Funny thing about elections they are a good deal like a horse race. Very often a long shot, or dark horse enters the race and upsets the dopesters big bucket . . . The impressive defeat of Governor Lee by George Clyde is, no doubt, among the major, political upsets of the 1956I political arena. - - c o - - THE SOOAIlOa PRAISE DUE THOSE WHO SERVED Spe.ce difficulties last week delayed editorial comment of those who served so faithfully on the Duchesne county fair board and on committees, to again, make our county fair the fine sue- cess it was. Never have people worked more in harmony than the 1956 Fair Board. Although the number of entries in the various exhibits were less, in most categories, than other years, judges expressed opinions that the quality was far above other fairs. This is a healthy sign that a county fair and those assigned to train rural people in the art of farming, stock raising, home and FFA club work, are getting results. making, Too much praise can not be directed toward Weston Bates of the 1956 fair board and comand Max Hartman, mittees. These men spent long, hard hours following up small details, which had they been left unattended, would have resulted in failure of some parts of th fair. Because Weston was located at Duchesne, much of the burden fell upon his shoulders, thus a special pat on his broad shoulders is very much in order. The full story of finances hasnt been told, but it is believed this will not be a problem. It is a hope of the committee and the board that er too long Duchesne county will be able to raise enough money through natural tax cbanels to finance the fair without worrying the board about how ithe bills are going to be paid. As the curtain fell on another successful fair, you who had anything to do with its promotion can individually feel a bit of pride in knowing that you helped perform a service to your fellowmen. You should also resolve now that when next year rolls around, you will be on the job helping with the 1957 Duchesne County Fair. cat-egori- One of the ways to get the Russians to smoke the peace pipe would be to let em think they invented tobacco. 4-- - - c o DEMOS . AT THE LOCAL LEVEL With more than 33,000,000 pupils an increase of a million in the last decade returning to the nations classrooms this fall, the pressing needs of our schools again are accentuated. Where there is a shortage of classrooms, more schools must be built immediately. Teachers are underpaid, and there are not enough of them. School officials and administrators deserve the recognition and financial rewards commensurate with their responsibilities. Businessmen are being urged by the National Association of Manufactures to spearhead a nationwide drive to help school systems obtain locally the funds they need to meet all legitimate requirements. Their needs can and should be met at the local level, to avoid the dangers inherent under any potential control and direction under federal bureaucracy. 30 Thru The Files Of The Record YEARS AGO 5 Melba Park and LaVar Sprouce, bank employees, are contemplating counting a dishpan ful of coins presented for deposit at the new Duchesne office of the Commercial Bank on opening day, August 8, by Lu Ann Cole, Rae Donna Cole, and Ro Jean Cole, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Cole of Duchesne.

A Wonderful Story Aobut three weeks ago Mrs. Odekirk went with her son and his family to Laketown to look over his school and to find residential quarters. She was thrilled with the beauty and modern conveniences of the new school building., but was more impressed with the story that was told to them about the athletic department having a Godfather. He is owner of a large sporting goods store in California, and keeps the deoartment well supplied with the best of equipment, including suits fqr the teams. When this generous, kindly godfather visited the school last year he informed the senior basketball team that they were to hand down their suits to the junior team as he would be sending them new suits in the fall. Wouldnt it be wonderful if every high school could be privileged or just lucky enough to find a godfather? Wonder how it happened? ond for the teenagers-'why not put an extension in their own room.
