Local merchants, as a group, have decided to tie in with the daylight saving idea and will make no change in regular hours. Majority opinion was that at 7 a.m. Monday it was unusually dark. But nobody doubled that dawn will arrive earlier in "due season".

JAYCEES ASKED TO SUPPORT LAWS Pre-nat- al and pre-marit- al le-gislation sponsored by the Utah junior chamber of commerce and passed during the last session was discussed by B. LaMar May-coc- k of Provo, vice president of the Utah junior chamber, Monday evening at Bingham cafe. He stated that although - the bills have caused many couples to go out of the state to be mar-ried and county clerks to com-plain about loss of revenue, ju-nior chamber organizations should back the two bills and see that they remain in our state sta-tutes. Mr. Maycock added that the Utah organization is contacting Wyoming. Idaho and Nevada Jaycee organizations asking spon-sorship of similar measures in those states. In the past six months 217 Utah couples were married in Nevada, 486 went to Idaho for the ceremonies. Prior to passage of Utah's reform legislation re-quiring certificates from physi-cians for couples planning mar-riage and physical examinations of expectant mothers, out-of-sta- te marriages were' few.

C- - Gemmell Memorial club smoker last Saturday eve-ning. There were boxers who won by decisions, K.O.'s and T.K.O's in addition to a bout or two ending with a draw. Billed as the main event, the fight between Ivan Bland, 175 pounds, and Gene Pearce, 178 pounds, for the Utah state light heavyweight crown, couldn't have been filled with more ex-citement, hard punches, boxing skill and red liquid. A low foul punch was accidentally dealt Pearce in the closing seconds of the final heat, to give Pearce the decision of what would otherwise have probably been ruled a draw by Referee Al Ablett. Bland asked for a return engage-ment, which, with the OK of pparrp shnuld brine to Bingham people an even better fight, if possible, sometime next month. A group of boys from Logan came down and earned enough points to over-shadow the Bingham amateurs. All of the bouts were fast and the boys never quit punching. It would be hard to pick the best bout. All the amateurs received appreciated gifts. In the one-fa- ll wrestling match, Hy Sharman and Wildcat McCann worked to a hard, tough draw. Floyd Hanson, with his super-ior knowledge of modern (the fans asked for it) wrestling, gar-nered two out of three falls to win over young Kenny Mayne. Lloyd Elder refereed both wrest-ling bouts while Al Ablett hand-led the boxing, aided by Frank Swain, Ted Harmon of Magna and George Stringham, who were the very capabloe judges.
