JMklw3MMHM Still talking about their day in the Legislature are some 52 members of the Springville high school A Cappella choir, who were invited to sing yes-terday for the second consecu-tive session for members of the Utah governing group. Glenn A. Montague is director. The invitation came from the Speaker of the House thru Springville's Rep resentative, Marvin Warren. Representative Warren said the choir did such an outstand-ing job two years ago, that the legislators wanted them to come back this year and pre-sent another program. Many of the governing body were new this session and they as well as those who heard the choir two years ago praised highly the talent and training which the students exhibited. The boys and girls were ta-ken on a tour of the capitol building and were given an op-portunity of watching part of a session, all of which proved interesting and educational to the choral group.

They offer a Daily Food Guide, available from the county home agent, on suggestions for proper eat-ing. The guide stresses a good breakfast and some meat, fish, eggs or milk in every meal. Good well-plann- meals can lengthen the prime of life and give more vigor, vi-tality and joy in living, the guide says. Proper eating in-creases the work-producti-span of years and fortifyes resistance to devitalizing di-seases and quickens one's recovery from injuries, sur-gery and illness, it states.

Volume Sixty-eig- ht THE SPRINGVILLE (UTAH) HERALD, THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1961 Price 10c Number Nine U. S. Steel structural mill start-u- p welcomed by workmen Geneva Steel's structural mill shut down since December 29 resumed operations Monday with a resultant call back to work of approximately 115 men, George A. Jedenoff, Geneva general superintendent, an-nounced. "The structural mill went back into operation to meet lo-cal customer demands and to provide structurals for an im-portant railroad construction project in the northwest," Mr. Jedenoff explained. The structural "mill, a unit of Geneva's rolling mill divi-sion, rolls structural shapes angle irons, channels, reinfor-cing rods and for use in heavy construction. Although no company fig-ures were available, it was be-lieved Geneva's total payroll before the structural mill call-back stood in the neighbor-hood of 4200 or 4300 workers. Before the national slump in steel began taking its toll, Gen-eva and Ironton were operating at a total rate of about 5500. Officials of a steel fabricat-ing firm which is planning to establish a plant in Provo, al-so reported this week that proximity to Geneva was the No. 1 factor in location of the plant; that steel from Geneva is the cheapest, "lowest base rate," to be found in the en-tire country with one exception and the difference in this case is negligible. Citizens welcomed the news of the resuming of operations at the structural mill and are hoping with the advent of spring, other activity will call back workmen who have been idled several months. U.S. Navyman is graduated Jimmy K. Lowe, son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl F. Lowe of 40 E. Seventh So., Springville, was graduated from recruit train-ing, Feb. 10, at the Naval Training Center, San Diego, Calif.

In nine weeks of instruction, the "raw recruit" is developed into a Navy Bluejacket, ready for duty with the fleet. r; t j Underway March 6 Uvanians outline Red Cross drive J. Keith Robinson, president of the Kiwanis club, has been appointed chairman of the current Red Cross drive in Springville. overseas duty encountered car trouble in bringing his family to Utah county for residence. Upon arrival here, the family's funds were gone. An appeal to the Red Cross provided finan-cial assistance to the family and return transportation for the serviceman.. There are numerous cases like these each year. Someone must help and the Red Cross is called upon much oftener than many individuals realize. Keith Robinson, president of the Kiwanis club has accepted the responnibility of spear-heading the Red Cross drive in the Springville area, it was announced today by A. L. Thorpe, Springville branch chairman." ' ' The Kiwanis club as a group is taking over the drive which is expected to get underway on Monday March 6. Mr. Robinson said that one ' often hears of Red Cross ser- - vices in some far off corner of the world but seldom does one hear of ways in which the Red Cross functions locally. However, only last summer, Mr. Thorpe recalled two in-stances where families were stranded in Springville enroute from their home to some other part of the country and the Red Cross came to their res-cue; a local veteran was given 17 pints of blood by the Red Cross at a Salt Lake hospital with no charge or request for repayment; A serviceman over-seas was critically injured. Military notification was brief and the family's deep concern prompted a request to the Red Cross for help in obtaining a full report as to the man's condition. Through the Red Cross information was obtain-ed for the family and the per-iodic reports were continued until the serviceman was on the road to recovery. A serviceman scheduled for Stakes conduct blood banks for emergency In an effort to assist mem-bers of their stake as well as rs in cases of emer-gency, the Springville Stake announces maintenance of a blood bank, with the 333rd Quorum of Seventy keeping the records. When anyone needs blood, they may draw upon the bank so long as there is blood in the bank. The Quorum mem-bers try at all times to keep a plus balance of ten pints on hand. They have compiled donor cards for each donor in the stake and when blood is needed the donors are asked to complete the assignment within two weeks and report back, and in this way the plus ten pint balance is maintained. To make possible sufficient blood for any emergency in the future the quorum is urging that when individuals need blood they should contact the secretary, Rumell Cragun and when given an assignment to donate blood, the stake asks that individuals complete the assignment and report within two weeks. A similar plan ' is also carried on in Kolob stake. Sponsoring the Kolob Stake blood bank is the 51st Quorum of Seventy with President Far-r- el Ogilvie of Mapleton, di-rector. Anyone interested in further details concerning the banks may contact Mr. Cra-gun or Mr. Ogilvie. : lob seekers at new plant idvised to contact office office.

EDITORIAL Clearing the atmosphere The Springville Chamber of Commerce which includes a majority of Springville business men meeting with school repre-sentatives, the board of education member, and heads of various civic groups, are to be congratulated for getting together this week to iron out a few problems which from all indications have been building up for some time. The C of C President, Kenneth Metcalf and the committee on civic clubs, education and churches, headed by George Bird, real-ized the necessity of the meeting when businss men and civic groups received a letter from the high school band asking assistance for new uniforms. Some business men posed the question: "Why should I assist with uniforms, when the band has already purchased them out of town and that other business from the high school is also taken to n merchants?" To this George Puckett, band leader, stated that the uniforms selected by the band could not be purchased through local concerns. He reported also that the junior high school band uniforms which were not so elaborate had been purchased through the local J. C. Penney store; also that the students had raised the necessary funds for the suits. Mr. Puckett was commended for his efforts in trying to organize a school band and for his fine work in band instruction. It was felt also that it was not his duty to have to raise funds with which to out-fit the band. It was suggested further that perhaps r the town could sponsor some project to help raise the funds for the uniforms; that if the town bought the uniforms that per-haps the band could play free of charge for a July 4th or some other town celebra-tion. There was generally a better feeling between all groups on the problem of band uniforms after the problem was discussed. Another issue which had evidentally been irking some groups, came in for dis-cussion. Leo A. Crandall, school board mem-ber, was asked who is responsible for car-ing for the shrubs and keeping the grounds clean around the art building. To this he replied that it was up to the school ad-ministration to see that they are kept up and that if a problem exists, letter to the school board would bring results. A few other issues were discussed during the meeting but it was evident that every-one in attendance felt better after he had become acquainted with the other group's problem and everyone was more determined to help. What had been considered big issues before the meeting were reduced to minor problems which, with a united effort, could be solved. Someone must take the lead in calling such meetings and the Chamber of Com-merce is commended for its leadership in this initial effort. The city is in need of unity and a spirit of getting together to work for the good of the town as a whole. Perhaps such meetings will bring about that which the city needs and will make for a stronger more united city. el 1 I - k J I9c -- 29c ; ,r49c P i ! r 49 1 r 9C,g.ias Curtis, 14, son of and Mrs. Irwin Curtis Mapleton added his name the high honor Scouts of J g!s district recently when 3 was presented with the igle award at a banquet aj , onsored by the Mapleton cond ward.
