Hiya gang! Here we are with some information that will be of interest to all ol you. On Tuesday, March 23, the Dugout post, No. 3521 of the V. F. W. had the pleasure of ad-- ; ministering the oath of alleg-- ' iance to these nine men: William A. Braun, Frank CallMl, Leon-ard A Carlson, Jay Eden, John W- Holmes, Raymond E. John son, Mike Pappas, John Susaeta and Jack E. Nelson. It was in- - ' deed a thrill to see so many of the fellows present. As two of the new members said "this is just the beginning." Yes, then-ar-still a lot of Bingham veter-ans who are anxious to come ;ind join us and "start the old ball a rollin'." It is requested that all mem bers be present at the next meeting on Tuesday, April 9. There will be an election of officers. Dutch lunch and re- - ' freshments will be served fol-lowing the meeting o ; MINERS EXCLUDED FROM CITY LOOP An athletic atomic bomb was dropped in Bingham recently when the Bingham Miners base-ball club was excluded from the city school league, now known as the big seven. The big seven recently held a meeting and formed their schedule without even inviting a Bingham repre-sentative to the meeting. Liter- - ally speaking, they slammed a door in the face of the Miners. Bingham joined the city lea- - gue 18 years ago under the coach- - ing of Bailey J. Santistevan In the league were LDS, East. West, Granite, Jordan, Davis and Bing- - ham. During the 18 years of lea-gue competition one or more of the teams have dropped out of Kague play. On the other hand. Bingham has fieldel a team cv- - ery year. Why, then, should the leader of the league be exclud- - ed from the loop it helped form and the loop it has kept alive? The big seven have invited Ogden, a club that belongs in re- - j gion one, to participate, then excludes one of its oldest and strongest members. The state demands that three teams must compete against each other to form a league. Last year there were only two city schools par-ticipating in an organized lea- - gue. Bingham was the other school to enter, thus making the league possible. If matters continue this way, it is quite possible that Bing-- I ham may field a championship nine and never have a chance to compete for honors. The present condition is due to some lack of initiative on the part of state and big seven baseball leaders. Bingham team members, stu-- j dents and fans do not ask sym-- ! pathy; all they ask is a sporting chance. Special privileges and unfair advantages are not a part of the real spirit of America. The action of big seven lead-- j ers makes it appear that they do not encourage baseball. The young athletes of Utah look to baseball as a career, yet the state athletic leaders do nothing to en-courage it. The attitude of the ' orphan" Bingham team is that the big seven leaders lack vis-ion where initiative and dynam-ism should properly hold sway. Steve Smilanich. O .

Musselman, newly appoint-ed district manager. Mr. Mussel-- ! man was formerly district man-- i ager of the Smaller War Plants corporation, a war agency. As-sisting him will be John R. Pow-ell and Mrs. Rhea D. Lyon. Mr. Musselman stated that his office under the program initiat-ed by the department of com-- i merce, contemplates realistic and concrete aid to Utah business firms. This aid, although avail-able for big or little business, will be of particular value to small business. Most of Utah's business firms fall into the small business category. Some firms in various trade classifications have survived through a long period of years, through their resourcefulnes, persistence, physical effort and sheer love of struggle. In the old days, as well as now, many thou-sands of small businesses failed; they risked and lost in the con-test against variable economic conditions, competition and lack of proper counsel. The small businessman, Mr. Musselman continued, is the very foundation of our free enterprise system. He represents the ingen- - uity and native skill which, col-lectively, brought us victory. Every town takes its character from their enterprise, thrift and s. Every little business casualty is a loss to the community. The banks lose a depositor, the com-munity loses credit, othor trades-men lose a customer, someone loses employment. Multiplied, such losses can make a ghost town of a thriving community. The program initiated by the department of commerce offering information and guidance will aid materially in preventing dis-astrous business casualties. Long months of planning have gone into the shaping of this program, Mr. Musselman stated, and probably the most significant body of citizens who will be helped are the young men now coming out of the armed forces. Many of these men are establish-ing their own small business en-terprise and are in need of in-formation and guidance. The department of commerce will offer businessmen guidance and informational material on such matters as: Business Guidance General Administration; Production; Lo-cation; Capital Requirements of the Business; Type of Organiza-tio- n Needed; Buying Procedures;! Inventory Practices; Methods of: Selling; Display and Advertising! Methods; Market Sources; Se-- 1 lection, and Training of Person-nel; Legal and Tax Guidance; Material on Latest Technical Advances; Informational General State ol Business Activity; Influence of economic trends on business as a whole and on specific prob-lems; Monthly reports on latest economic opportunities within the businessman's own locality; Information on facilities for risk capital and short term credit, private and governmental; Po-tential foreign trade markets from commercial attaches in for-eign lands; Technical advice. BOY SCOUT SHOW SET FOR APRIL 10 A Boy Scout show will be gi-ven at Princess theatre Wednes- - day, April 10. The purpose of the show is to finance the repair of the scout bus.

A select program of shorts will also be shown with the main attraction. The local scout council held its regular monthly meeting Monday April 1 at the Utah Power and Light office. In at-- i tendance were Joseph Timothy, A. C. Larick, Malcolm Robert-son, Robert Jenkins, Irvin Still-- j man, M. Hettrick, L. Scorzato, Marvin Throckmorton, Leonard Miller, J.

McKay, state health commissioner, today, urg-ed that parents take every pre-caution to protect their children against the possibility of acquir-ing severe colds. With the appearance of a few sunshiny days children as well' as adults are prone to lay aside their warm winter clothes, there-by exposing their bodies to the cool chilling atmosphere. Chill-ing has a tendency to lower bo-dy resistance and may be fol-lowed by a cold, sore throat, or even pneumonia. Young children who are per-mitted to play in the out-of-do-during this season of the year should always be dressed in light warm clothing, Dr. McKay said. NEW BOOK AIDS MANYVETERANS The Bingham high school li-brary has just received a book which should be of great inter-est to everyone; especially those who are planning on entering colleges or universities next fall. The book, "A Guide To Col-leges, Universities and Profes-sional Schools In the United States" was compiled under the direction of Carter V. Good, pro-fessor of education, University of Cincinnati, and published by the American Council on Educa-tion. It contains all the latest in-- I formation being asked by rcturn-- I ed service men and women con-- l cerning tuition fees, housing ac-commodations, credits to be al-lowed for courses taken while in the armed services, and much more valuable information on all colleges and universities in the United States. It is hoped that this volume will play some small part in the more effective adjustment to the college or university envir-onment of the service man or woman and the oncoming high school student- - Wise selections of institutions should insure happy and rewarding experiences for the individual and the nation. Anyone interested in seeing this book may call at the Bing-ham high school library. Miss Virginia Ryan, librarian, will be glad to assist you with any in-formation you might need.

The recent form-ing of a league in the nearby district has caused a great deal of comment for leaving out some of the best schools- Bingham, oft-tim- e winner of the state champ-ionship, and perhaps the strong-est backer of high school base-ball in Utah, has been left ost in the cold. The Bingham lads, for some reason, were dropped from the league. Surely their past performance and keen com-petitive spirit deserve a better break than this. We hope some satisfactory arrangements can be made, whereby these boys can continue with the finest of all American sports. Bits About Bowlers To make a short story shorter, will glance over the weeks per-formance of the BDAA bowlers. The men's team at Sugarhouse dropped three games to Laura Larsen Ice Cream. After a good start of 948 the boys went hay- - wire in the second game, and also lost the three games and totals by 16 pins. All hopes for first place vanished as only one week remains with our boys four points behind the leaders- The BDAA girls won one game and lost three games to the Am-erican Linen girls .at the Ritz Tuesday night. The girls are back in fifth place again and with five more games of league play the girls are really anxious to win. The BDAA girls really did swell in the state bowling tour-namen- t, winding up in 6th place. Lenore Jones, a Salt Lake girl, bowled in the doubles with Ann Marks. Ann and Lepore are in 4th place up to date, rolling 1117. There will be a BDAA meet-ing Monday evening, April 8, at 7:30 p.m. at the city hall-Se-you next week.
