Mrs. Lillian Anderson mailed a copy to her mother ,Mrs. Margaret Mar-garet Urie, who is the Cedar City librarian, and it turned into "preferred "pre-ferred readmg" at the Cedar Ci,y library. Seems the folks over Cedar way all figured we lived amongst nothing but sagebrush and jackrabbits and rattlers, and they thought our economy was all ranching and railroading. We're glad they are learning about Milford's wonderful agricultural agri-cultural area, and in case the copy Lillian sent Mrs. Urie is getting worn out, we've mailed her another one. And this week we're issuing a "last call" on the Milford Valley edition. If any of our readers planned to mail the edition edi-tion to friends and haven't been in to get the copies, we ask them to please do so in the next few days. We will within the next week file away the copies that have not been disposed of at that time. Wih Thanksgiving upon us, and stores puting out the Xmas merchandise, it's about time for the youngsters to be thinking about Santa Claus. As in past years, The News will publish Letters to Santa, from now until Dec. 24th. The address is Santa Claus, care Milford Mil-ford News, Milford, Utah. The pheasant hunt in Milford was just fair for most of the hunters, and the reason the kill wasn't better, according to many of the hunters, was because the birds are "getting too darned smart." Mr. James Lewis of Beaver, who trucks the mail between be-tween Milford and the ' county seat, says the hunters must be right about it the morning after pheasant season closed he was loading the mail and stood watching a hen pheasant stroll nonchalantly down Main Street past the Tri-State building. "What I can't figure out," he said, "is how the deuce that bird knew the shooting season was over." To answer a couple of hundred hun-dred questions: It seems to us that Television has not yet arrived ar-rived in Milford. Tests are being be-ing made at Jeff Merc,1 and El-wood El-wood and Norman got to see a couple of rounds of a fight the other evening, but as yet they haven't said "We've got it!" They have received pictures on occasion, but they are awfully "snowy" and of poor clarity. Tests are planned in other areas of the city, and a higher antenna is to be tried, before the local dealers start preparing to handle a heavy demand for television tele-vision sets. Alcoholics Anonymous is doing do-ing such a grand job in its field, local ladies under the leadership of Mrs. Phyllis Tracy, phys ed teacher at Milford High, plan to change "lumps" to "curves" in an "Overweight Anonymous" activity at the local gym. An announcement appears on an inside in-side page of this edition. Last week the Tigers got off to a good start in their '52-'53 basketball wars, marking up two wins in their week-end play. They were plenty ragged Saturday Satur-day night against Tropic, but woke up and played ball in an overtime period to win, 41-32. Score of Friday's game with Escalante was 57-31. Box scores on both games will be published next week. |
