Leadership Week Plans Progress The Lehl Pioneers were successful success-ful in winning their first league game last Friday night at Lincoln, defeating the Lincoln Tigers, 39-18, in a good game. Jack Mitchell, Ralph Roberts and Don Evans were the big three for the winners as they poured in 30 points between them. Only once during the game were the Tigers ahead and that was in the first minute of play, when Leo Farns-worth Farns-worth tanked a field goal to give Lincoln a 2-0 advantage. Only in the final period when Ross Nielson sent in his reserves, did the Railsplitters manage to keep even in the scoring column with the winners. But with a 34-12 lead at the beginning of the final quarter the reserves of both teams got their chance and the Lincoln bunch closed the big gap one point. The score: LEHI O. T. F. P.

New Ruling Made In Filing Income Tax Returns The Revenue Act of 1940 has made important changes with respect to the liability of individuals for the filing of income tax returns. Indi viduals under the following corcum- stances are required to file returns covering the calendar year 1940: Single Individuals, or married individuals in-dividuals not living with husband or wife, having a GROSS INCOME of $800.00 or inure. Married individuals living together to-gether having a combined GROSS INCOME of $2,000.00 or more. The net Income is no longer to be used in determining the liability for the filing of a Federal income tax return. The liability of a citizen or resident of the United States to file a return is dependent upon his status as a married or single person, and the amount of his GROSS INCOME. IN-COME. Therefore, every citizen or resident of the United States will be required to file a return for the taxable year 1940 if his GROSS INCOME IN-COME in 1940, regardless of the amount of his net income, comes within the amount specified above for his particular status. A return must be filed even though, by reason of allowable deductions from gross income and of allowable credits against net income, it develops that no tax is due. The 1940 snow survey and precipitation pre-cipitation report for the American Fork canyon area, as released December De-cember 31 by Thomas A. Walker, national parks ranger and weather observer, gives the information that the water content of the various snow covers is greater than that of any other year since measurements measure-ments started, and also that precipitation pre-cipitation Is greater than any pre-ceedlng pre-ceedlng year on record, and more than twice as great as last year. Another encouraging observation is the fact that up until now there has been an unusual amount of drifting of snow into the hollows, and numerous snowslldes.

Balanced Menus Planned For Student Lunch Lehi H. S.
