Show UTAH COPPER CO. RUNE IS CONTEST SUBJECT An excellent air photo of Utah Copper company's Bingham mine was the picture to be identified in a contest begun during March by Desert magazine, published at El Centro, Cal., by Randall Henderson. In the May issue announcement an-nouncement was made that John Bigelow of Salt Lake City was winner of the contest for his less than 500 words' article identifying identify-ing the air picture and describing describ-ing the "greatest single mining operation in the world". Factual information contained in the writeup includes latest statistics on production of Utah Copper company ("a great act in the nation's war drama"); and tells a little of the milling operations opera-tions at Magna and Arthur. The product as it comes from the mills, Mr. Bigelow wrote, "is smelted into blister copper at the nearby Garfield smelter, biggest copper smelter in the world. Writer Bigelow is to be congratulated con-gratulated on his ability to telescope teles-cope no inconsiderable amount of information in a few words and yet manage to keep interest of the reader. |
