Kent Peterson the former South high star is in training with the Cincinnati Reds and do-in- g all right. Fred Sanfors, another Utah boy from the Industrial is slated for a starting role on the St. Louis Brown's pitching staff. Ed Husser from Bountiful will be with Brooklyn this year and Leo Day I mean Dorachoer is de-pending on him for plenty of work. Chusness and Hensen with Salt Lake last year look like cinches to stay with the San Francisco Seals. Big Clarence Iott with Pinney during the war is with the Browns and in train-- i ing looks like ready money. Jim Acton, who managed the Kearns club, will manage a team in the western association this year. That's the three mark for thus week. I suppose you will be at the tournament. AL.

MINERETTE CLUB Dedicated to the centennial was the theme of the last drill by the Minerttte club this year. For the seniors it meant the end of a very entertaining and colorful phase of their high school mem-ories. Utah's state flag was carried down the center of the floor fol-lowed by a banner bearing the words "Dedicated to the Centen-nial." Next came little Kent Allsop as Brigham Young; Susan Santistevan and Richard McMul-li- n as pioneers. Following their entrance came the remaining 48 Minerettes representing the fore-fathers. The climax of the drill was when a slow-motion- square dance was displayed and a large wagon wheel formed. We feel the drill was very successful and hope it was enjoyed by all. The senior members of the club wish success to the Miner-ettes to come and we'll all be back to see you next year. Helen Drossos, reporter.
