Tall, virile Bruce Yarnell is six foot 5 inches in his western boots. He admits to feeling right "at home" in western attire, even though from childhood a musical career was his goal. At 26 years of age the affable young man has made a terrific impact on stage, television, night clubs, opera and recordings. Singer, dancer, horseman, fencer, and swimmer, Bruce Yarnell is now at the peak of his career. His first professional engagement as a young man was with the Roger Wagner Chorale. In addition to pursuing a concert career, h? then began a series of highly successful engagements as sing-ing actor. For his portrayal on Broadway of General Kinesius in "Happiest Girl in World," ha. won the Theatre World Award for the "most promising person-ality of the 1960-6- 1 season." In the or'ginal cast of the Broadway success Camelot, he d the way in the Jones Beach summer production of Hit the Deck and other major musica1 shows in the country. Yarnell is currently being seen as Hippolyte The Ox in Irma La Duce, opposite Jack Lemmon and Slrrley McLaine. Charming Shirl Conway, now known by millions of teWis'on buffs as Liz Thorpe, R.N., the head nurse on the top ratd Thursday evening TV show "The Nurses," flies into the Beehive state Friday evening slightly more than 24 hours before she joins the Defenders star Robpr1 Reed in the March of Dimes Telerama. With noticeable anticipation in her voice, Miss Conway, tall, slender, brown haired and blue eyed, said, "I'm happy to come to Utah for this Telerama which will benefit the March of Dimes fight against crippling diseases like birth defects and arthritis." Wednesday Deadline Nearing for Tax Payments Deadline for paying the final installment on estimated federal income tax returns for 1963 is Wednesday, according to Roland V. Wise, Director of the Salt Lake City District Internal Rev-enue Service. If you have previously filed an estimated return and events occurring in the last quarter of 1963 indicate that your income will be substantially more or less than your original estimate, you may be required to file an amended declaration by Jan. 15. This declaration, he added, should be marked "amended," and filed with the same District Director of Internal Revenue who received the original decla-ration. A blank amended decla ration is printed on the back of the notice of payment due which the taxpayer received by mail or Form 1040-E- S (Amended) may be obtained from any In ternal Revenue Service office. Mr. Wise said an original dec-laration of estimated tax for the year 1963 should be filed by Jan. 15 on Form 1040-E- S by tax payers who first became liable for filing an estimate during the fourth quarter of 1963. However, he said, a taxpayer who is required to pay an in-stallment, or who first becomes liable for filing a declaration, or finds it necessary to amend his declaration in the last quarter oi 1963, need not meet the Janu ary deadline provided he files his 1963 income tax return and pays in full the balance he owes on or before January 31, 1964 Also, farmers and commercial fishermen have different dead-lines. Writer Says Federal Aid Creates Additional Problem for Colleges credits. A taxpayer could in effect pay part of his income tax up to $100 directly to a college or university of his choice. Many schools now maintain Washington offices or represen-tatives to seek grants. John A. Howard, the young president of Rockford College, in Illinois, calls the clamor for federal funds a "stampede to disaster" and insists that the federal pro-grams destroy institutional ini-tiative, sfitle diversity and exert undue control. His college is pushing an ex-pansion program without federal funds. For similar reasons, Brig-ha- m Young University at Provo, Utah, has rejected more than three million dollars in federal aid in the last five years. The University of California leads in federally supported re-search with almost 200 million dollars' worth. Wisconsin re-ceiv- ss some 28 million a year, one fourth of its budget, from Washington. At the University of Illinois, federal grants have jumped from $3,900,000 ten years ago to 25 million dollars this year. Princeton, Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology receive a large part of their income from Wash-ington. Federal agencies are support-ing colleges and universities to the tune of two billion dollars a year with more than 90 per cent of the money going to about 100 big institutions. Most admin-istrators say this aid is on the whole beneficial and must in-crease. But others believe just as strongly that "federalization and centralization of education are destructive and must be halted." Paul Friggens discusses the situ-ation in a January Reader's Di-gest article, "Federal Aid to Col-leges: Boon or Bane?" He finds most of the money ?oin? for "costly, mushrooming government-sponsore- d research" that "lures many of our best teachers away from the c'ass-room- s. . . . Thus undergraduates rooms. . . . Thus undergraduate education is devalued, and a good many youngsters are short-changed in their education." Faculty members receiving grants switch full- - or part-tim- e to the federal payroll and report on their project to somebody in a government agency. "A uni-versity's control over its own destiny has been substantially reduced," says President Clark Kerr of the University of Cali-fornia. "Projects are duplicative and uncoordinated," writes Friggens, "extravagance and waste abound . . Since the great bulk ... is being poured into research for national defense, health and space, this is creating dangerous imbalance in our academic pro-grams." To withstand the dangers im-plicit in federal involvement President Robert F. Gohen of Princeton warns, we must have greater private support of educa-tion. One proposal is for tax Locomotive Firemen Protest Action By Copper Firm The Brotherhood of Locomo-tive Firemen and Enginemen are registering a protest against the Kennecott Copper Corporation for unilaterally removing the hauling operation from their jurisdiction and awarding such work to the Mine Mill and Smel-ter Works in disregard of the existing contract between the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire-men and Enginemen and Kenne-cott Copper Corp. The Brotherhood claims that this unilateral action by th company would place 84 work-ers on the unemployment list, some of whom have been em-ployed by Kennecott for more than 20 years. The Union fur-ther contends that this action is a complete disregard for con-tractual responsibilities. Action was filed under Sec-tion 301 of the Labor Manage-ment Relations Act asking for a declaratory judgment for the judgment for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and En-ginemen which was followed by a motion by Kennecott Copper Corp. to dismiss the action. The motion for dismissal is to be heard before Chief Judge Willis W. Ritter of the United States District Court January 17. Utah Bond Sales Si crease for Year Utahns invested more savings in United States Savings Bonds during 1963 than in any year since 1946, following the close of World War II. So said Clem S. Schramm, State Director of the Treasury's Savings Bonds Division in a year end report to State Chairman Fredrick Champ and other bond volunteers. "Purchases of Series E and H bonds reached the 17 year mark of $21,579,179, besting 1962 by $2.2 million and representing 107 percent of our state's quota," the director said. Nationally, sales of E' and H bonds for the year were $4.76 billion, up $482 million over '62, and the highest since 1956. Re-demptions were two per cent '")! than last year, and with the ception of 1961, the lowest since 1954. The cash value of outstanding bonds of both series reached a new record level of $47,106 billion. Reasons for Utah's sales in-crease are varied, according to State Director Schramm. "For instance, 9,252 new participants in the Payroll Savings Plan are recorded during 1963, or 243 per cent of our assigned goal, and the automatic, continuing pur-chases by payroll savers mainly in the $25, $50 and $100 denom-inations, helped account for the 13 per cent increase in the E-bo- nd sales total. This achieve-ment was made possible by the outstanding cooperation of man-agement and employees in busi-ness and industry, defense and federal agencies, public employe groups. "Sales of larger denomination bonds also showed an increase, indicating that many investors took advantage of the deferral of federal tax and freedom from state income tax which are the features of the E bond. "In addition to outright pur-chases of over $1 million in the current income Series H bonds, Utahns acquired $664,500 more by taking advantage of the E bond exchange privilege. (The amount so exchanged is not in-cluded in the annual sales total. "The School Savings Stamps program, which teaches children Americanism as well as thrift, is being conducted in 112 schools an increase of six per cent over a year ago."
