When Gitchel; pleaded guilty to obtaining a 60-cent meal at Elliott's El-liott's cafe without paying for it in Provo city court Monday, he was sentenced to 30 day3 at hard labor. "But," compromised Judge Le-Roy Le-Roy Tuckett, "the court will suspend sus-pend the sentence provided you leave town immediately." Gitchell said he preferred the sentence. However, he probably will not complete it, for Provo police plan to take him to Salt Lake City and turn him over to army officers offi-cers at Fort Douglas. LEGISLHTUn (Continued from Page One) In the meantime, legislators came in for new criticism because the reorganization bill and more than 400 other bills introduced in both houses had not advanced beyond be-yond the introduction stages. Unofficial Un-official circles blamed "junkets" for much of the delay. They said legislators were spending more of their time running about the state in planes, trains and automobiles than they were at lawmaking. The house spent its entire morning morn-ing session debating a bill that would permit Utah to have one of the highest old-age pensions in the country. The measure would permit pension recipients to have a private income of $10 and still qualify for state and federal assistance as-sistance up to $30 a month. No final action was taken today.

In his annual message, Maw asserted engineers have reported re-ported enough magnesium could be obtained from the water of Great Salt Lake to supply the world for 700 years. "I'll do everything I can to get such a plant for Utah," the governor gov-ernor said, addine he would send a rtate representative to Washington Washing-ton to back a Utah magnesium lant if necessary.
