REDUCTION WPA CREW BOON TO LOCALWORKERS According to Mayor Ed John-son, approximately 16 men who reside outside of Bingham Can-yon were laid off the Freeman drainage channel WPA project Wednesday evening. This action will make it possible to keep six local men also working on the project employed for several weeks longer. The out-of-to- men will like-ly be called to work on county WPA projects, Mayor Johnson said. Another advantage to the city in reducing size of the crew and employing only local work-ers is that the daily expense, $5.80, for a truck to transport men from outside the city is eliminated. This saving will make possible additional funds to pay wages. With a full force of 20 men working funds set up for the Freeman project would have been exhausted about November 15. With the reduction of the crew those working will be employed longer. When the c hannel is com-pleted in about three weeks, the crew of local men will be put to repairing streets. According to Claude Tibbie, foreman of the Freeman project, it will be necessary to build the concrete flume under the street instead of using concrete pipe, which has been found to be im- -. practical. The flume under the roadway will be built at the, mouth of Freeman avenue and will connect with the sewer across the street. jINGflAMOOELE MEET TODAY IN if IMPORTANT GAME The most important local grid 91 attle of the season, with the B" honors of Jordan district at 7 t ake, is that Bingham and Too-- a high school eleven play to- - lay at 2:00 p. m. at Tooele. 11 q gingham and Tooele lead the utljj division of region two, each 7! :'4ith three wins and one loss, j Tooele showed a sustained Living force in their game last ' rriday to overcome the strong filurray Smelterites.

Most counties in the state will have five days of pheasant hunt-ing: Carbon, Duchesne, Emery, Millard, Uintah and Utah; four, days are allotted Boxelder, Cache and Sevier; three days to Beaver, Davis, Grand, Juab, Morgan, Salt Lake and Weber; two days to Iron, Piute and Tooele.

Scofield reser-voir probably will be the mecca for many duck hunters, although other places throughout the state will also attract many. With such a long hunting per-iod on ducks, many persons took after the deer first, planning to leave the migratory wildfowl un-til a little later.
