The entire surface of the grounds will be covered with as-phalt. A gutter and iron railing will be constructed from the principal's home along the side-walk to the lower end of the grounds. Leland Tuft has a contract for removal of about 500 yards of dirt at the rear of the upper grounds, completion of which will give approximately 350 more square yaras oi playing space. Complete cost of the entire project, to be finished November 1, will be approximately $6000.

O CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNORSHIP SPEAKSMONDAY No additional taxation meas-ures are necessary to run the state government, Herbert B. Maw, now Democratic nominee for governor, said in a run-of- f election eve talk at Society hall Monday evening, declaring he would refuse to sign new taxa-tion measures, if elected. Dr. Maw said that during his ten years in the state senate he 1 n fl rnnn vr rrnlnvlit f mines and mining, and that ru-mors he would favor taxing the mining industry out of existence were entirely untrue. By elimination of waste of state commissions and bureaus, much money can be saved, Dr. Maw said. "The thing Utah needs most is to creaje employment. We need all the industries we have and new ones must be developed to raise the level of average family income. The federal government has expended twice as much re-lief per capita for Utahns as in other states. 3000 young people leave the state every year in search of employment, he said. A grape industry in Utah's Dixie; gilsonite products plant in Vernal; development of silica beds in Juab; exploitation of Car-bon's coal and asphalt; advertis-ing of Utah's beauty spots: these present opportunities for Utah's growth, Dr. Maw said. Lambert Gibson was chairman of the meeting. Other candidates making speeches were Charles Spencer and Ed H. Watson, nom-inated Tuesday as Democratic candidates for the state senate; Gwynne Page, nominated for county commissioner on the Democratic ticket, and Judge Allen G. Thurman, Democratic attorney general candidate. Unofficial Results Precinct 10 Run-Of- f Primary DEMOCRATIC Dis. Dia. Dis. Dis. Dis. Dis. Governor 333 334 335 336 337 338 Tot.
