O FIRE UNDERWRITERS REPRESENTATIVE COMPLETES SURVEY H. S. Morr, engineer for the Pacific Board of Fire Underwri-ters, completed inspection of Bingham Canyon's fire fighting equipment and city water svs-te-on Monday of this week. Mr. Morr spent three weeks in this city making a detailed survey for the fire underwriters. With exception of a few minor parts in need of replacement on fire trucks, fire-fightin- g is in equipment good condition, Mr. Mori-stated- . The municipal water system is in good condition, Mr. Morr suid. there being only a few changes recommended. The WPA pro-ject recently approved, construct-ion of a concrete lining for the Dry Fork water tunnel at a to-tal cost of $17,49.110, will be a further asset which will be no-ted in the report Mr. Morr will make. With the next two months oth-er inspectors for the underwri-ters will visit Bingham Canyon to thoroughly inspect buildings. After this investigation all find-ings will be tabulated and recom-mendations for any possible change in local fire insurance rates will be made. Fire rates in Bingham Canyon range as high as $7.10 per $100 insurance. Following purchase of the new fire truck at No. 2 station last year, the city council requested that the fire under-writers make a new survey of Bingham Canyon and a change in fire insurance rates. Lower rates were asked, with low fire losses, competent volunteer fire depart-ments and a good g equipment cited as reasons for the reduction. TUNNEL PROJECT NEW PARKING LOT INTEREST COUNCIL Preliminary work on the $17- - 4113.10 WPA Dry Fork water tun- - nel project will he begun next week, City Recorder Eugene Mor-- : ris announced yesterday. A pro-ject foreman has not yet been selected nor the number of men in the crew set, but some work must he completed before lining of lout) feet of the 1700 foot long tunnel with concrete can be star-- I ted. Another parking lot on Main street may result from a propo-sal that ground across the road from the Standard garage be leased by the city from Utah Copper company and leveled out to permit parking space for 12 cars. Council members are studying the plan. Bingham firemen Monday put out a lire at the D&RGW railroad bridge at Dalton station. In coun-cil discussion Wednesday it was decided to contact fireman and see if they approve allowing one truck to leave the city in case of alarms in the county not too far from the city. Recorder Morris submitted a revenue report showing $1630.98 collected in April and expendi-tures totaling $2859.38. Miscella-neous bills for April aproved for payment total $895.32.

Mullins, county commis-sioner of roads and bridges, and George Catmull, superintendent of roads and bridges, were busi-ness visitors in Bingham Canyon Tuesday, inspecting the Bingham-Copperfiel- d traffic tunnel. Mr. Mullins advises that work is to begin in the near future on clean-ing and repairing bad places in tunnel. According to Mr. Mullins, the road in Dry Fork canyon from Picnic Flats to the forks will be graded before next winter. This will make the road passable to skiers who found it difficult to reach the forks in the winter. Recently the Dry Fork road has been graded and improved to Picnic Flats, where Lions club members are arranging to place tables, stoves and other improve-ments for convenience of picnick-ers. OPEN HOUSE SET BY HOSPITAL ON NATIONAL DAY Public Cordially Invited To Visit Local Hospital On Sunday, May 12 Many persons are expected to take advantage of open house to be held at the Bingham Canyon hospital and clinic on National Hospital day, Sunday, May 12, the 120th birthday of Florence Nightingale, mother of modern nursing. This year National Hospital day falls on the second Sunday in 'May, which is also Mothers' day. Being a holiday, Sunday will be occasion of much visiting, and will furnish an excellent oppor-tunity for interested persons to acquaint themselves with mod-ern hospitals. Better understanding of the important service offered by hos-pitals may be gained by a visit to one of these health centers. Each year medicine makes great strides in treatment and care of the ill and diseased. Hospitals are the battle front where science uses the knowledge gained in re-search. Any community is fortunate in having health centers equip-ped with modern instruments and machines necessary for treatment and surgery as are the local hospitals. The public is cordially invited to visit at the Bingham Canyon hospital from 2 to 4 p.m. and 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. during open house on National Hospital day, Sunday, May 12. LIONS COMMITTEES NAMED BY PRESIDENT Pins were given John Feraco and W. L. Faddis for perfect at-tendance at Lions club meetings since September 1 at the meet-ing held Tuesday evening at Sturm's cafe. Dr. Paul S. Richards, president, appointed Ed Johnson, George Bihler and George Evans mem-bers of a nominating committee to choose candidates for an elect-ion scheduled June 4. Transportation companies will be contacted by a committee, in-cluding T. II. McMullin, Dr. II.C. Jenkins and Elliott W. Evans, re-questing that sightseeing buses stop in Bingham's business dis-trict. Dr. Richards stated that A. A. Macke, chairman of the Com-munity Chest drive, had reported the first annual drive was pro-gressing nicely. O Sports Here and There By Al Ablett. ? The Industrial league got off to a flying start last Sunday with Gemmell club taking the Brigham Peaches 13-- 3. Magna out-laste- d Pinney to win 6-- 4 and Provo came out on the long end of a pitchers' battle with Helper 2-- 0. The Gemmel - Peaches game was played in Brigham before a opening-da- y crowd on the beauti-ful new ball field. Boxclder high school and the American Legion post conducted ceremonies, a real show. Mayor Anderson threw the first ball out, and the game was on. Bass was on the mound for Gemmell and he turned in a workman-lik- e job. They scor-ed a run on him in the first, but from there on until the 9lh when he was working on a big lead, he held them down. He struck out nine men and their scorer gave them 10 hits, but in our book it was seven and three of those came in the 9th when he eased up. Besides pitching a swell game, this little fellow showed them he is some one to be reckoned with at that plate. He got a single and a triple and the triple was really a hit. Frank Zaccaria put on a one-ma- n show for the fans up there. He walked three times, got two for two, and stole four bases, including home, and scored five runs. Pretty fair day's work in any man's lea-gue. Big Robby Robertson caught a nice game, and drove in Ihree runs, two of them on a triple that was hit a country mile. Occie Evans, who is playing second base, made a great play, when he dove about four feet and came up with a hard-hi- t ground ball off Al Kastelic's bat. He couldn't get Al at first but it stopped a man from scoring from second. Wilson, Gemmell's second baseman, made a couple of hard hit ground balls look like lazy hoppers, as he came up with everything in his territory. Don't let the score fool you, because Brigham is going to give somebody plenty of trouble be- - fore the season is over. Word comes that Leif Erick-so- n has a hustling ball club over at Magna. They beat Pinney Sun-day and Brigham Wednesday night. Gemmell plays them here next Wednesday. Provo has uncovered a fine pitcher in this boy Ralph Crow-to- n. He only gave Helper three hits Sunday. So, as I said before, Provo will be tough. Helper has a vastly improved team, there's no doubt the In-dustrial league fans are in for some fine baseball this summer.
