Gund-erso- n, supervisor of training, be-fore a mining division session at the annual convention of the Am-erican Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers at St. Louis, Mo., on Wednesday, Feb-ruary 21st. In this paper Mr. Gunderson outlined, among other things, the important role training plays in the mining industry, especially now that the industry is faced with the necessity of increased production of metals in the face of a dwindling labor supply. In order to tabulate the detail-ed information concerning the various jobs within the training program, workmen and super-visors in the various departments are called upon for assistance. The actual instruction is handl-ed almost entirely by supervisors who receive special training in the method of presenting the material to their fellow workers. Equipment demonstrations, both on the job and in the classroom, are made more effective by the use of visual aids. Four major types of training are now in progress, namely: 1. Occupational Refresher-desig- ned to refresh the minds of experienced workmen training to set the job done better, safer and easier. 2. On The Job for new em-ployees and a follow-u- p to as-sure the success and application of the refresher courses. 3. Supervisory - Personnel training supervisors to be more real leaders and effective man-agement representatives. 4. Safety given emphasis in all training programs. Some of the results of the Utah Copper Division's formal training program, in operation just one year are measured by demonstratable improved safety records, improved morale, de-creased wastage, and decreased maintenance costs.. Sports Here and There by Al Abletc Basketball is in the news more ways than one. Our local team took Murray as expected, 54-3- 3, rnd this brings them up to to-night's game with Tooele with the teams tied for the top. Coach Allsop has all of his team in top shape but Hall. The big guard has a bad ankle. Johnny Erick-so- n took over for him in the Murray game and Johnny looked plenty good. Tooele is a high scoring team. The Miners took them by ten points on the Too-ele floor but had to come from behind in the last quarter to do it. The boys from across the way tell me to write that one off the book. They say they lost their two top men in that one. So it looks like a toss up from here. The game has been a sell out for two weeks. BYU and Utah split their ser-ies in Salt Lake with a near riot marring the last one. Something will have to be done about these games, and I think the sooner they bring in outside officials the sooner this feeling will clear up. With the Skyline games draw-ing 4 to 6 thousand this could be done without causing any hardship. There is one rule that should be cleared up in basket-ball, that is the deliberate foul. With a player driving in for a sure setup to be pushed delib-erately and then get only a foul shot is something I can't under-stand. Basketball in the East espec-ially is goin gthrough its tough- est crisis. Sure shot gamblers, the lowest form of animal life, has snared it in its tentacles and unless something is done and in a hurry, it will crush it as sure as the sun comes up in the east. Now they have found an easy way to get to the players because they don't ask them to throw he games, just keep the points spread right. For instance it team is a ten your see point favorite just that you don't beat hem by that much. Now I deffer from a great, many . puople, - because - I have no sympathy for the play- ers involved. They are not boys, they are men, about to be grad- uated from college, supposed to be equipped to go out into the world, and take their place as leaders in their chosen fields. Men like Sherman, White, War-ner, and Roman, with the ability that God has given to few men, athletic at least. Me who could have written their own ticket had they chose to play the game professionally. For these men to accept bribes that in the long run was mere chicken feed for them to let their family, school, and friends, and most of all, themselves down, I just can't find any excuse. As for the sure shots, well they could walk un- der a snake without stopping. But come what may in New York we will see you at the game tonight.

She also introduced all other members and guests present. A clever poem about each of the past presidents, who were honored guests, was composed and read by Mrs. R. Nerdin, ac-companied by Mrs. Jimas at the piano and corsages of red carna-tions and gold hearts tied with red, gold and silver ribbons was pinned on each one by Mrs. Sor-enson. A delicious turkey dinner was served to 50 33 members and 17 guests by Mrs. Helen Sul-lenge- r, her daughters and her staff. A two-ti- er birthday cake decorated in the club's colors, copper and silver and two small heart cakes made by Mary Zac-cari- a, centered the head table and j1so served for dessert with ice cream with red hearts in it. Red tapers in crystal candalabra with lazy susans containing red carnations, copper and silver weeds centered the side tables. Favors were red wax hearts con-taining candy and individual placpcards marked each place. A large heart framed by red crepe paper containing names of the past presidents and years of their service was on the wall and also a large heart Valentine that read Happy Birthday Civic Club. Delicious homemade candy com-pleted the meal. Numbers were drawn from a pretty Valentine box during the evening for prizes which were four potted plants donated by 3 Kennecott Copper Corp. and won by Jean Kanniainen, Mrs. Jimas, Delilah Rasmussen and Ruth Hudson. The two lazy Susans used as centerpieces were won by Elfie Reid and Lily Timothy. The three Valentine aprons were won by Daisy Bogart, Maude Hocking and Mrs. Sorenson. The program, arranged by Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Jimas, was as follows: reading, an adapta-tion of H. G. Wells, "The War of the World", was given by Luene Jaterka; negro mammy dance by Jeniel Boren, Janice Hocking and Phyllis Sanderson; can-ca- n dance by Patsy Creedon and Miss Sand-erson; reading, "What A Two Year Old Thinks About", by Maurine Peterson, and three vo-cal selections by Kaye Abplan-alp accompanied by Inga John-son. Following the program Mrs. Jimas commended the work done by the chairman. Concluding the program was a reading entitled "Shanz's Story" given by Mrs. R. Nerdin.

J. O B.D.A.A FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp 'BUFFS - MINERS-CLA-SH AT COPPERTON TONIGHT Bingham high school's Miners will be attempting to ride herd on the invading "White Buffa-loes" from Tooele, again tonight in a crucial battle for Region Two honor, that may decide this hectic B league scramble for first place. This game, center of attrac-tion for the B prep fans, holds any number of possibilities, and will undoubtedly be remember-ed for quite some time. Several ifs, depending on this game's outcome, could arise, such as, if .Tooele wins, then the Buffs take over sole possession of first place, dropping Bingham and Cyprus, if Cyprus wins, into a tie for second place. Then in the final game between Cyprus and Tooele the Pirates could throw the league into a three-wa- y tie by upsetting the top Tooele crew, if Bingham wins their last game against Judge. Bingham could virtually clinch the No. 1 position by defeating the Buffs tonight, as ' Judge should not pose too big a prob-lem in the final encounter. Then Tooele and Cyprus could battle for the runner-u- p position. TROUNCE SMELTERITES Last week the Miners dropped a fighting Murray crew 54 to 33, as Gaythwaite, Sanchez, and Erickson kept the strings hot. Gaythwaite dunked in 20 points, and was a bulwark under both boards, aided a great deal by re-trieves byAllsop BaUamis.-aa- d Erickson. Ray Hall, missing his first starting assignment in two years play, because of an injured an-kle, should be ready for his re-gular guard berth tonight and may be an important factor in the locals' defense plans. Erick-son turned in a fine game last week in Hall's absence, and can be depended on for a good relief role whenever needed. Please cooperate with the ticket men, have your tax change ready and help avoid congestion as much as possible. B.D.A.A. League Newi Regular Monday night play was held over till Wednesday this week, and results of these BDAA games will be given next week. Last week, Copperton remain-ed on top by defeating Frogtown 33 to 25 for their fourth win in as many starts. Chick's cafe of West Jordan won a thriller from Big Four, in the final seconds 34 to 32. Highland Boy had little trouble defeating the Red Skins 43 to 25. Wednesday's games found the leading Copperton five against the last place Redskins. Frog-tow- n and Big Four met head on and Highland Boy contested the improved Chick's squad. Next Monday Big Four meets Copper-to- n at 7:00 p.m. Highland Boy plays Frogtown at 8:00 and the A-- League Ends Tuesday night saw the end of regular play in the Recreation A-- A league, and the local BDAA five .ended their first season with a lop-side- d victory over McDon-ald Heating 60 to 27 at Murray.
