Bingham Exceeds Quota In Fifth War Loan Drive July 8 marks official close of the Fifth war loan drive launched locally on June 12. However, closing date is no long-er of first significance to Bingham district workers as they reached and passed their goal four days before the deadline. Bingham's committee selected a TBF avenger torpedo bomber, cost $132,000, as the weapon of war which they would like their bonds to purchase. Of the $138,085 worth of bonds purchased between June 12 and July 7, women house-to-hous- e canvassers accounted for nearly half, or $00,000 of the sales. These workers were recruited and worked under direction of the Bingham junior chamber of commerce. Mrs. Bob Jimas, women's chair-man, states that while "Pass In Revue", a bond show, stimulated sales, most important factors in success of the campaign wera the steady work of women can-vassers and the fine work of the payroll deduction committee at Utah Copper company under S. W. Jacques, chairman. Other payroll deduction cam-paigns were headed by Swan E. Brynolf, U. S. mine at Bingham; and Robert Jackson, U. S. mine at Lurk, and although their sales were not included in the town quota of $132,000, the results turned in by them nearly doubl-ed former deductions at these two plants. While the drive officially ends on July 8 and the booth at Union Drug closes on that date, all bond Eurchases during the month will to Bingham's Fifth war loan drive total, W. R. An-derson, bond committee chair-man, announces. CONTEST PRIZE GIVEN VICTORY FLAG'S TREASURY War savings stamps worth $25.00 have been presented Vic-tory Flag society this week by Mrs. J. B. Thurmond, whose re-port on the waste fat program conducted in Copperfield during April by Mrs. Clarence Bullock won a contest conducted by Am-erican Fat Salvage committee at Washington, D.C. The war stamps prize, which was for third place in the na-tion, was a suitable recognition for the efforts of Mrs. Thurmond as Copperfield Minute Women's chairman. Mrs. Bullock, who re-cently moved to Highland Boy to make her home, collected 428 pounds of fat in Copperfield dur-ing June. Carl "Chicago Charlie" Zahos accepted Mra. Thurmond's gift for Victory Flag society and has turned the donation over to Jo-seph P. Scussel, treasurer. COUNCIL HOLDS BUSYJESSION Two weeks' business was dis-posed of by city councilmen in S ,,us, a,nd lonS session at City hall Wednesday. From a list of five apDhcants, Elmer Pantalone, 18, of Copperfield, was approved as the new city police officer. He succeeds Matt Yengich, now in the armed forces. Dr. F. E. Straup, city health officer, gave an oral report on his inspection of rooming houses, which were found to be, on an average, in good shape. Bedbugs were found in but a few cases. Dr. Straup said. Decision on the request of Guy P. Stevenson, chairman of dairies, food weights and mea-sures, that each incorporated city of Salt Lake county have their board of health take charge of inspection and analysis of milk, was held up until special-ists on the subject can come here to be heard. Reports from the state board of health chemist, Howard M. Hurst of Salt Lake City, reveal-ed that bacterial analysis of samples of water from Markham, Freeman and Carr Fork tanks show city drinking water to be satisfactory. Color, odor and tur-bidity (sand or clay content) were reported "normal". Samples were taken June 20 to June 22 by Councilman Ross M. Cushing. A committee of Legionnaires, Commander Howard P. Matthews, Sam Feraco and Mike Brisk, from Bingham post No. 30, asked the city's opinion on skating at Civic Center. Councilmen ap-proved their plans' of operation as outlined. Salt Lake county gave an es-timate on cost of resurfacing roads as follows: Carr Fork, $395.25; Markham, $830; Free-man, $350.49. Estimate of filling holes and repair on the above roads was $232.56. Estimated cost of the two roads, excluding Markham street, which is to be paid by Utah Copper company, was set at $975.30. The council decided that the prices given by Merrill J. Everett, superintend-ent of Salt Lake count" roads, were reasonable. FOURTH PROGRAM MUCHENJOYED Planned under chairmanship of Leonard L, Miller, the patriotic program presented in the early evening at R. C. Gemmell club was presided over by Earl T. James, who introduced two very distinguished guest speakers, Lt. Col. W. L. H. Osborne of Fort Douglas and Utah's governor, Herbert B. Maw. "Because of our efforts in World War II, freedom will come to many," Governor Maw said. "It is a privilege to participate in a great movement which means so much to mankind. The Fourth of July is the greatest holiday Americans have, because i tis then we realize what liberty and independence and freedom mean to each of us", Governor Maw concluded. Opening the meeting, the col-ors were presented by a guard from Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion under di-rection of Howard T. Matthews, commander of post No. 30 of the Legion. Joel P. Jensen led in singing "God Bless America". Beverly Zorn, accompanied by Norma Rasmussen, was enthusi-astically applauded for two vocal selections, , "Say A Prayer For the Boys Over There" and "Lonesome". Voicing a hope that from the present great war civilization will emerge greater, stronger and more beautiful than before, May-or R. A. Murano asked for 100 per cent mobilization of power and population on the home front. "The men in the armed forces are in the front lines of battle. We are producing the weapons, the ammunition, the food and other things they need. We, too, are protecting and de-fending the homeland. "A great deal depends on how well we do our job here at home. Being steady, regular and con-scientious is not enough. These days there is need for a special effort and there is need for an unusual degree of effic-iency for an unusual number of working hours. We must keep up our end of the war on the home front. We must particularly re-spond to the appeals for purch-asing and holding war bonds", the mayor stated. Lt. Col. Osborne complimented the workers of Bingham district on their fine contribution to the war effort through production of copper. Master of Ceremonies James commented that firemen were sponsoring their 35th Fourth of July program and complimented members of the committee, John T. West, chairman; Ben L. Mc- Allister, in charge of races; Ray-mond D. Marriott and A. O. n, parade; Mr. Miller, pro-gram, and Alvin Hall, dance.

Lyon gave the invocation and Miss Ada Duhigg the benediction.

SKATING RINK TO BE OPENED Opening of a properly super-vised roller skating rink for use of children of Bingham district will soon be a reality, it is an-nounced by Ken Shulsen, city councilman in charge of recrea-tion and a committee of mem-bers of American Legion post No. 30. Opening date is set for Thurs-day, July 20. It is thought likely that par-ents of children will approve of roller skating as a sport and help promote the amusement. The rink at the Civic Center will not be a money making proposition, but rather a way of keeping children entertained and off the street. Skating is listed as one of the finest of exercises and is a fav-orite recreation for children and adults alike, Mr. Shulsen says. Mr. Shulsen is of the opinion that the efforts of the American Legion and rink operators will result in provision of an amuse-ment which is as healthful as it ia popular. Wells Groceteria was closed July 1 as result of action by Utah Wholesale Grocery association. It is reported that a counter claim has been filed by George Wells, a former owner of the store, for value of stock for which he al-leges he was never given pay-ment |
