PROGRESS "These were all right in their day, but we've come a long way since then," Miles P. Romney, secretary, Utah Mining Centennial, 1863-1963, right, tells Gov. George D. Clyde and Mitchell Melich, president, Utah Mining Association, left, as he demonstrates the "old and new" in mine lighting equipment. equip-ment. Mr. Romney holds up a miner's candle dating back to 1860's and early carbide lantern, while modeling the very latest in mining headgear with attached electric lamp. Gov. Clyde this week signaled one of the largest year-long observances in state history by officially proclaiming 1963 as the Centennial Year of Mining in Utah "in recognition of the location of the first mining claim, the preparing of the first mining laws and the organization of the first mining district in the state." More than 20 historical, religious, educational, business and government groups will participate in Centennial activities during the year. Gov. Clyde's proclamation pointed up "the vital relationship relation-ship which mining has had with the economic growth and welfare of our state and its citizens . . . impressively demonstrated demon-strated by the officially reported value of Utah mineral products reaching a cumulative total of more than eight billion dollars in 1962." ? ..... .... . A T - . v' RECORD IN ROCK - A new record in ore-waste removal lias been set at Kennecott's Utah Copper Division mine in Bingham Canyon. The company reported that 102 million tons of ore and waste were handled at the mine in 1962, compared to the old record of 98,960,411 tons moved in 1961. Of the 102 million tons, 73 million was waste, also a new record for a single year. The previous waste record of 71,103,020 was set in 1961. The 29 million tons of ore handled in 1962 is not a new mark. That was set in 1943, when 33 million tons of ore was removed from the mine. The 102 million tons would make up a railroad train 7,043 miles long, reselling from New York to San Francisco and back again.

Since the sheik was a power seeker he soon went out and conquered Leaming-dyll, Leaming-dyll, Oakville, and many road runners. run-ners. 'When he finished doing this amazingly daring feat he brought the inhabitants of these distant kingdoms into the largest Delta of the land and turned them into Rabbits. These rabbets were re-qu.red re-qu.red to attend school and soon they were the most intelligent Rabbits Rab-bits in the world. These Rabbits were also required to take, part in a vigorous physical fitness program pro-gram that was prescribed by the Chief Rabbit of the land. This program pro-gram included wrestling, football, basketball, running to the lunchroom, lunch-room, and what-have-you. The brawny and brainy Rabbits were tops in all of these fields and all opponents quaked with fear whenever when-ever a Rabbit hopped into view. The wise sheik had found an amazmg formula that kept the Rabbits brainier and brawnier than any opponent they would ever face. This formula was labeled "SCHOOL SPIRIT." This formula had to be guarded constantly because be-cause sneaky dealers from the other oth-er kingdoms often tried to steal some of the formula to sell to their schools. One day the Rabbits grew a wee bit careless as everyone occasionally occasion-ally does and an army of invaders invad-ers from other lands sneaked in and stole some of this amaz.ng potion. This army was led by a crippled eagle, a one armed red-man, red-man, and a beaver with a broken tail there were also representatives representa-tives from every other township m the general region of the Rabbit's Rab-bit's kingdom. The brainy, brawny Rabbits were very angry when they found out about this theft and all parts of the physical fitness program banded band-ed together and with the rest of the Rabb.ts behind them they went out and thoroughly trounced their foes. They recaptured every particle parti-cle of their lost SCHOOL SPIRIT even a little more than they had lost. After returning from this righteous invasion the Rabbits (and their re-captured SCHOOL SPIRT) remained in their own kingdom scaring the living day-Eve day-Eve with Mr. and Mrs. Jay Nelson. Mrs. Jay Nelson, Mrs. Louise Lovell and Mrs. Jene Bradfield spent Thursday in Tayson shopping for Relief Society supplies.

Johnny's winsome win-some smile beamed at friends and he gave out kisses all around. It was a happy affair. Yet at one time, Johnny's parents had little hope he would live to celebrate even his first birthday. birth-day. For he was born with the often fatal birth defect of water wa-ter on the brain, or hydrocephalus. hydro-cephalus. Surgical treatment saved Johnny's life when he was three months old. At that time, doctors performed what is known as. a shunt operation. They inserted in Johnny's head a plastic tube which allowed excess fluid from the brain to be harmlessly absorbed by the youngster's body. Without the operation, fluid within the brain is prevented from taking its normal course, News Reports Rabbits Romp Over On Friday, Jan, 5, in the first league game of the season the Rabbits collided with the Parowan Rams and emerged victorious by a score of 65 to 42. During the first minutes of the game the Rabbit baffled the Rams with their point inhibiting full court press. As the game proceeded all of the Rabbits on the team acted like cougars. With their twisting and snatching they crept in and stole the ball away from the Rams. A two-some came off with top honors as high point men. They were John Greathouse and Paul Pace, each man racking up 13 points for himself. We have made arrangements for you to order your magazines thru the students listed.

Today, Johnny leads a relatively rela-tively healthy, happy and carefree care-free life. Like any other little boy who lives on a farm, he loves to hug lambs, chase cows and tease chicks on the family's 100 acres near Columbus, Ohio. He is a good example of thousands of afflicted children being helped to live nearly normal lives through a unique medical care program financed by The National Foundation-March Foundation-March of Dimes.
