O B.D.A.A FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp Semi-Pro- s Set Opener The Northwest Semi-pr- o loop, at a Wednesday night meeting at Magna, set their sights on an-other successful season, with op-ening games scheduled for Wed-nesday, May 19th. The same six ball clubs, Mag-na, Midvalc, Morgan, Layton, Dcseret Chemical and Bingham, will comprise the league, and most clubs will have the same young talent they used last year. Herb Babcock, manager of the Bingham club, has not received definite word from all of his last year's squad, but figures on sev-eral returning. Most of his squad will be in condition by the time the league opens because there nearly all playing in prep or col-leg- o competition now. The BDAA club's homo games are being lined up to give our fans greater opportunity to go and we hope to make baseball the finest community entertain-ment. Wednesdays and Sundays are the days picked for play, with most of Bingham's home games being played at night on Wednesday and early afternoon games for Sundays. The nifiht games will start at about 8 p.m. and Sundays games are being slated for about 2:30 p.m. Meeting Monday The regular meeting of the BDAA Board of Directors will be held Monday, April 12, at 5:30 p.m. at the city hall. Preps Going Strong Bingham's prep baseball nine has been hard at work the past week or so, and should be fairly strong again as regular season play begins. The locals have been in several practice tilts with the strong "A schools, and have given them some fine com-petition. The Miners lost a tough 11 inning battle to South high of Salt Lake this week, but the boys are looking better every game. Let's go down and give them a boost every chance we fiet. KENNECOTT FETES : 20-3-0 YEAR MEN Approximately 1100 veteran employees and guests of the Utah Copper Division of Kenne-cot-t Copper Corp. will attend banquets Thursday and Friday, April 8 and 9, 6:30 p.m.; at the Newhouse Hotel, to honor 145 employees who completed 20 and 30 years of service in 1953. Fifteen of the employees to be honored have completed 20 years continuous service and 130 have completed 30 years continuous service. Those with 20 years ser-vice will receive a framed cer-tificate and a gold lapel emblem. Presentation of the 20-ye-will be made by L. F. . Pett, General Manager of Utah Copper Division. J, C. Landen-bergc- r, Jr., General Superintend-ent of Mines, will be toastmas-ter- . Those with 30-ye- service will be honored April 9th, and each will receive a wrist watch with insignia. Leland B. Flint, director of Kennecott Copper Corp. will make the presenta-tions. J. P. Caulfield, General Manager of Kennecott's western mining divisions, will serve as toastmaster. Among these veteran employ-ees are four ladies, Mrs. Louise Wilson, Mrs. Crystal Colombe, Mrs. Ida Stewart and Mrs. Myr-tle Bredemeyer. The long-servic- e employees who will attend these functions represent an aggregate of 33,000 man-yea- rs in the service of Utah Copper. O REDUCTION IN EXCISE TAX RATES PASSED ON TO TELEPHONE USERS The reduction in excise tax rates enacted by Congress and approved by President Eisen-- . hower will affect every tele-- j phone user in Bingham Canyon, according to Ralph P. Holding, local manager of the Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph company. Pointing out that all bills dat-- 1 ed April 1 and thereafter will reflect the tax reduction, Hold-ing emphasized that all savings jfrom the reduction go directly to the telephone user. Foi example, a customer paying $3.00 for his, regular service and using $2.00 per month in long distance ser-- , vice has been paying 95c month-- ; ly in excise taxes. Under the new excise tax rates, he saves 45c a month or over $5.00 per year, Other rates are affected propor- - tionately, the manager said. ... r LOCAL CYO TEAM ENTERSTOURNEY The Holy Rosary CYO team under the able direction of Elias Roblez, entered the annual CYO (tournament at Salt Lake City, by defeating St. Patrick's of Salt Lake 46 to 32 last Saturday-night- . Tom Lovat, Joe Castillo, dominated the scoring punch by hitting 17 and 10 points respec-tively. M. Gonzales played a very good floor game for the Bing-ham squad. Dick Susaeta, and Norman Bianchi controlled tooth bankboards which enabled Bing-ham to push in front of St. Pat's. B. Cordova and E. Martinez are two good reserves who helped their team to a hard fought vic-tory. Bingham's CYO team made it two in a row by defeating Lour-de- s of Salt Lake 42 to 29. As us-ual the fast team of Bingham was never behind, as Lovat pushed 13 points through the nets. Biajichi helped by tailing the bankboards and collecting six counters for the CYO bunch. E. Martinez, B. Cordova and Dick Susaeta played a well balanced game on defense as Mike Gonzal-es played a good floor game. Mike is the playmaker of the team. Joe Castillo played anoth-er outstanding game. He is the smallest center in the tourna-ment. His man is usually two to four inches taller but . he holds his man down to a few points. Bingham now enters in the semi finals. They play Guada-lupe tomorrow, Saturday, April 10, at 5:00 p.m. in the new Judge Memorial gym. Winner of this game meets the winner of the Midvale-Tooel- e game for the junior CYO championship. I o TEN PIN TAPS by Al Ablett Only one more week and the season will be over and the way some of the boys are shooting it should be just starting. Monday1 night again found this fellow Raymond Johnson high man with a 588 series and Mickey Callisto had a 213 for high game. Next week will be pay off week and everyone is expected to be there because at that time we will take up the shooting of the round robin, and also make arrangements for the end of the year party. Proud to say that the Gemmell A league has the high-est pay off of any league in the state. This league pays off at the rate of $2.00 a point for every win, so some of the boys have quite a sum coming at the end of the year. You can't beat bowl- - ing for entertainment. A good many of the fellows are getting ready for their trek to Seattle for the one and only ABC tournament. Frank Zac-cari- a, Bill Ablett and myself are on the Utah Motor Club team. We go on the alleys on April 29 and 30. Another team with a number of Bingham boys on it will shoot at the same time. I understand Mickey Callisto, Ken Chestnut, John Kallen and Gus Katis are on this club. So for its size, Bingham will have a nice delegation at the big one. Next big tournament on the local scene is of course the Ritz Classic and as I have told you before a number of the local shooters have already won their way into this one. But to those who have never attended a clas-sic I suggest that you make ar-rangements to see this one. It is being held on the week end of 24th and 25th of this month and at the same time you can take in the Springtime Classic being held at the Pal-D-Ma- r. This is a handicap affair and is fast grow-- ! ing into one of the biggest in the j west. Here is the line up for the fin-- j al week.
