Monday evening, the ward members and other honored guests were invited to the program, held around the camp fire. Mrs. Naoma White gave the opening prayer. Mrs. Margery Mackerell, as the featured guest, gave a beautiful reading, "Pictures In the Flag," and Mrs. Joyce Gale gave a talk on the "Origin of the Flag."

A hike to Big Flat, Puffer's Lake, Otter Lake, and back to the Girls Home was the program for Tuesday, while Wednesday was devoted to cleaning up, packing, bidding farewell to the joys of camping, leaving for home by 2 o'clock, thus completing a occasion for all who were fortunate enough to participate. Twenty girls stayed in the home and 44 people called during the three days of the outing. Much appreciation was expressed for the courtesy of the local National Guard in taking the girls up and back, also to Beaver Stake authorities for financing the repairs on the building.

Nybarr was defeated in a feature race at Milford during the American Legion 49er celebration by Willowin, a Beaver horse. Nybarr was ridden by Junior Rollins, a Burnham Stable jockey, in his first trip around the Milford track. Rollins, a prominent jockey on many of the West's leading tracks, credited the sharp turns on the Milford track and the trailer ride to Milford, arriving two hours before the race, with a spe- cial match race Monday, July 4, as a feature of Peru's 125th anniversary celebration. CIVICS CLUBS HAVE INTERESTING MEET IN BEAVER The June meeting of the Associated Civic Clubs of Southern and Eastern Utah was held Saturday afternoon of last week at Beaver, with President J. N. Stacey of Richfield in charge. Also present were Clifford A. Magleby and O. C. McShane, secretary and treasurer, respectively, and several longtime members who have been associated with the organization over its many years of usefulness. The meeting convened at 2 p.m. in Beaver Community Center, with Martell Easion, Beaver City mayor, delivering a welcome talk. Mr. McShane, chairman of the association's legislative committee, discussed national and state legislative matters and mentioned the readiness of members of congress to investigate anything coming before them except when they concern their own expense tabs; also the speed with which they pass legislation favoring themselves, such as "sweetening" of congressmen's pensions, while dragging their feet writh other legislation. Kumen Jones of Cedar City, chairman of the organization's livestock committee, spoke only briefly, then introduced Grant Esplin, Beaver County Agent,, who gave a graphic summary of the depressed BUS Class of '35 Plans livestock situation, what with low prices and generally unfavorable 25th Reunion July weather and oilier conditions.

"The race at Ely is the one I'm really a little apprehensive pboul." Mayor Kizer said. "In lhe East lhey may surprise me by throwing a real horseman at me, but I know that lots of the Nevada mayors were 'born with a horse between their legs.' " Mayor Kizer has also offered to defend his title in a special race during the Utah Stale Fair in Soptmeber, for the benefit of Crippled Children's Hospitals. "Nybarr may not be a Whirla-waor Man O' War," the racing mayor said, "but by the time I get through winning races with her in Illinois, Ely, Salt Lake, or anywhere else that mayors will challenge me, she'll be the best known horse in the U. S. I expect to hold my championship as long as I'm mayor of Milford, and I'll race any group of mayors any place in the world." Mayor Kizer originated the Racing Mayor contest as a feature of the Milford American Legion 49er Celebration, and his appearance in Illinois is under sponsorship of Milford Post No. 16 of The American Legion. "This race has 'built up' lo where it is so important lo the people of Utah that I don't want lo take any chances on having a sliff or tired horse for Ray lo ride," Mr. Burnham told The News in a telephone conversation. "I scratched the horse from the Denver race so we could get to Peru in plenty of time to rest and exercise Nybarr, and get her used to the y track." They will transport Nybarr by trailer, stopped overnight for a rest ard to exercise the horse at the farm of I. G. Crystal at Coon Rapids, Iowa. Mr. Crystal is the father of Mrs. William (Virginia) Davis of Milford. Mayor Kizer said they would load sufficient hay and grain at Denver, to feed Nybarr for the entire trip, "so we won't be taking chance on 'upsetting' the horse by changing feed.

IN JUDGE WILLDEN'S COURTS V "7 it William Willden, Beaver justice of the peace and municipal judge, reports the following cases coming before him recently: Joe R. Dewey jr., Salt Lake City, June 22; no driver's license; fined In a letter received recently from Wilbur M. Brucker, Secretary of the Army, the officers and men of the 2nd How. Bn., 222d Arty., were praised for their performance during Exercise Big SlamPuerto Rico. This exercise was a first for many Guardsmen, since participation was with the Regular Army, Navy, and Air Force. The letter of commendation was endorsed by General Bruce C. Clark, commander of the Continental Army Command; Major General D. W. McGowan, chief, National Guard Bureau; Major Maxwell E. Rich, adjutant general, Utah National Guard; Brig. Gen. Frank S. Hummel, commander, XI Corps Arty.; and the Honorable George D. Clyde, governor of Utah. They all were high in their praise of the local Guardsmen for their appearance, conduct and proficiency in all phases of the military. Recent graduates of Army basic training at Fort Ord, Calif., who also were participants in the Puerto Rican operation, are Pvts. Nelson E. Ashworth, Eldon R. Black, Russell W. Dean, Abram G. Gillies, and Roger G. Taylor, all of Beaver, and Lloyd N. Kohlcr of Milford. These men have completed basic and now are enjoying the outdoors of Beaver County prior to participating in further training at Ft. Ord, Calif, and Ft. Sill, Okla. Information from USATC at Ft. Ord indicates that these men were of a class of among the top 20 230 enlisted men. Pvt. Kohler placed second on the rifle range, with Pvt. Ashworth placing third, to gain top honors in rifle marksmanship during the training cycle. The officers and men of Service Battery are justly proud of their record during the past fiscal year and are looking forward eagerly to another outstanding year of training. Of interest to businessmen of Beaver should be the information that $34,000.00 has come into Beaver from the local Guardsmen. This e includes employe salaries and drill pay. Purchases from gasoline distributors and coal dealers have amounted to over $1200.
