Show 9 bututo-, (lut 9 JeoteX By STEVE WILLIAMS Ttd Cannon of Salt Lake City, Deseret News columnist, phoned Wednesday to express his regrets at not being able to officiate as one of the bathing beauty judges to help select a 49er queen. Ted said a previous engagement, engage-ment, which he accepted two days before receiving the invitation invi-tation from Milford, would kep him from enjoying the annual Milford frolic. So, the '49er Committee extended ex-tended Columnist Cannon an invitation to attend the 1956 49ers. Not taking any chances on any previous committments! The Old Timer says a man will go a long way to save his face, but a woman just goes to the drugstore. And Elbert Hubbard brings the Golden Rule up to date with "Do unto others as though you were the others." Mayor Kizer dtdn't win the Mayors' Milking Contest up at Logan, but he sure got a lot of good publicity for Milford. Spectators say that about every other announcement on the P A system had Kizer on it. Ray practiced up on Carlyle Gronnings cows (Carlyle says he only - milked one) before he went up, but the first cow he tackled refused to give with the white stuff. Then the next one poured it out almost too fast for hizzoner to handle, but the third cow, a cantankerous critter, crit-ter, kicked the bucket over and spilled all the milk. Ray had a black and white cowgoy shirt on, and the announcer an-nouncer cautioned the other mayors about trying to milk him instead of a cow, when , - they alternated every 40 sec- j onds. Anyway, Mayor Kizer and 1 Dorothy, and little Toni Lynn, had a lot of fun, no one challenged chal-lenged him to a boxing contest, and the Milford trio enjoyed being dinner guests of some of J th- "big shots," including Mr. Hunsaker, the chairman; Mr. King, president of the Cache County Breeding Ass'n., and . Mayor Horsley of Brigham City. J Just received a beautifully ) inscribed certificate from the Department of Labor appoint-) ed us "reemployment Rights Ad ' visor" for this area. It don't pay any salary, of course, but j we're supposed to advise re- turning servicemen about their rights to their old jobs, etc. Just in case someone has ,a ! complaint, we'll read the large handbook they sent down, and pass along our thanks to Bob j Shelby, American Legion na- j tional vice commander, lor the honor. I , I Seems Mrs. I Dunno caught a little heckling from Merrill Edwards, Ed-wards, who became a grandpa recently. We listed the weight . of his new grandson at 6 lbs 12 oz., and Merrill wants it under-! stood that he had a HUSKY j grandson, weighing SEVEN, not ! six, lbs and 12 oz. Okeh, Merrill, sorry we slighted your lineage. j Work is progressing on the foundation for the new water tank, and about July 1st they start moving it from the U P yards to its new location on the hill next to the other water storage tank. It will increase the city water storage about 126,000 gallons. |
