HOLDS ANNUAL ELECTION I Women's Benefit association elected officers for the coming year at their Friday evening meeting at the home of Mrs. A. J. Ablett. Those elected to take office the first of the year are: Mrs. Ed Shaw, president; Mrs. H. R. dust, vice president; Mrs. J. J. Doyle, secretary; Mrs- C. F. Sullenger, treasurer; Mrs. Kay Harker, chaplain; Mrs. Russell Sullenger, lady of ceremonies; Mrs. V. Pe-terson, sergeant and Mrs. Peter Smith on auditing committee. New members welcomed into the lodge were Mrs. Robert Strea-tor- , Mrs. William Brown, Mrs- V. Peterson and Mrs. Nelson Smith. Mrs. Ablett was hostess at the social following business. Prizes at cards were won by Mrs. Doyle, Mrs. C. F. Sullenger and Mrs Brown. Mrs. Anthon Jacobson received house prize. Out-of-tow- n guests present at the meeting were Mrs. Isabella Murphy, Mrs. Florence Gren-ma- y, Mrs. Peter Latsis and Mrs Vaun Christensen. Sports Here and There by Al Ablett Our basketball team showed the lack of practice in their game against Pleasant Grove and they lost. Coach Allsop used almost every man on his squad and as a result is beginning to get a pretty fair line on the material-H-has picked his squad to go on the trip to the southern part of the state and I am sure when they get back we will see a dif-ferent team. The other teams in the dis-trict are playing pre-seaso- n gam-es, and some of them look pretty good. Grantsville, Tooele and Cyprus have good looking squads. So at long last the Slate High Sschool Athletic associa-tion has divided the state tour-nament into an A and B divis-ion. The B tournament will be held in Salt Lake and the A division in Ogden. The only bad feature of this set up is that they are being played at the same time. The B division starts one day ahead so it is still possible to see all of the teams in both tournaments. The decision to separate the two divisions has long been an issue, but uniil the A division schools showed such a super-iority in the last few years, they were reluctant to make the change. J for one think it is the only fair way to have the tournament, because in late years the big high schools have had a monopoly- - They still have to take care of Provo and Carbon but that shouldn't be too hard. I am sure we will see closer races in every league and the B schools showing a great deal more interest. The Salt Lake entry in the New American league is busy signing outstanding players. The last is Jim Turner, he is a all-- ! Pacific coast center with Idaho. Jim is a big boy 6' 5" and 200 pounds. Here is what looks like their starting line up. Laddie Gale 6' 3" and high point scorer in the nation while playing with; Oregon state at forward. Morse 6' 4" from Utah state or Skinny Fullmer 6' 4" from BYU at the other forward post. "Stretch" Duncan 6' 7" from William and Mary and a sensation while play-ing with Camp Kearns great team- On the guard line they will have two of the best in the Rocky mountains, Ralph Crowton 6' 6" and Alquest 6' 5". You can see they have plenty of height and most of them over 200 pounds and fast. Their first game will be against the San Diego Dons on the 18th of this month. All of the Salt Lake games will be held in the Deseret gym. A great many Bingham fans fare plan-ning on being there. The Bingham bowlers did right well in the city tournament held last week-en- d at the Ritz alleys. Bill Ablett and George Sluga won the doubles title. The Ritz Classic team won the team title of which I am lucky enough to be a member, and Bill Ablett. Frank Zaccaria and yours truly finished in the money in the sin-gles- I believe Zac had high game with a 258 in his second game in the singles. In the Gemmell major league the Bingham Merchants went in-to the lead by taking three points from Uinta Club, while BDAA was taking three from Princess theatre. Dan Delaney had high series of the week with a fine 599. Dan had a new ball and it looks like it was what he needed. Jim Ab-planalp is one of the toughest in the roll offs. When they beat Jim they are over 200. See you next week. So until then a good buy is a Victory Bond. AL CANYON LODGE ELECTS OFFICERS Officers to lead Canyon lodge No. 13, F. & A.

FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp Just 11 more days til Christ-mas and that means just 11 more clays before the Grand Christmas Ball. Last week this column stat-ed the dance would be held on Christmas eve. We wish to cor-rect that, as it will be Christmas night, December 25. Looks like the best dance the old town has seen for a long time, unless the New Year's eve ball out shines it. Gemmell club and BDAA are cooperating on these two attrac-tions. Get in the swing folks, bring your partners, your best dancin' shoes and you can't help but rhythniize. Don't forget, membership cards of both or-ganizations will be honored, but no guest cards. The BDAA will hold it's an-nual election at the next meet-ing January 7, 1946. The board of governors from the various organizations will nominate and elect new officers for the coming year. All members of the board of governors are urged to at-tend this meeting. Well the Salt Lake City bowl-ing tourney is history now, and several of our local boys helped write it. "Bowlin"' Bill Ablett and George (Strike) Sluga are the new doubles champs, as they garnered 1258 pins to beat some of the states best two-some- s. Bill also finished in the money in the singles events, along with Al Ablett and Frank Zaccaria. The BDAA ladies team suffer-ed a setback this week at the Ritz leagues, losing 3 of 4, but their still close to the top and still pitching. George Abplanalp led the BDAA men's team, with a nifty 606 series, to break even with Transportation Agency at Sugar- - house. This team is now in 3rd spot in the Southside Classic lea-gue with 31 wins and 25 losses, just 5 games behind the leaders. In the Gemmell major loop this week the BDAA entry scor-ed three wins over Princess, while the Bingham Merchants took 3 of 4 from Gemmell club. Dan Delaney copped high series for the week with just one pin short of 600. Henry Marks came through with the high game 225-Thi- Gemmell league is getting tougher and tougher, and any-thing is apt to happen yet. Got to be getting along, but let me remind you again; get set for the two grand "Swingin' Sessions", coming up. Xmas nite and New Year's Eve.
