Holly. He began by saying that they have enough snow at the present time so that skiing is very good to excellent but seem to be having some trouble getting the word out to the people in town and in the service stations and cafes. He reported that he has been told, by customers, that Mt. Holly is not open, that the road is almost impassable, that the lifts are not working - all manner of untruths which tend to keep people from going to the resort. He said that he cannot understand the attitude behind this since he feels that successful operation of Mt. Holly will bring an entire new dimension to the commercial life of this community. No longer will the end of the hunting season mark the end of the commercial life, now we can look forward to a busy winter season, Mr. Koning said that they have tried but been unable to arrange for proper telephone service at the resort and so have decided to use recorded messages to answer questions. By calling 2618 you can get the latest information as to snow A call to 2488 will also get a report conditions. as to snow, also what services are available and you can make reservations. The coming few weeks are going to determine whether the first season for Mt. Holly is a success or failure. The sooner it becomes a successful operation, the sooner we will begin to feel an impact from it. It is unfortunate but it is a fact that the snowfall this year has been less than we are used to. That seems to be the case all over tms established locations such as Alta, Park City, Brighton, etc. are all suffering from lack of the White Stuff. We have, according to Mr. Koning and I might add this was also reported by a number of people I talked to at the resort tat Sunday, enough of the white stuff for good skiing.

In the November 5, 1974, election, Mr. Stanley Roberts was elected County Commissioner over G. R. Jefferson by seven votes. Since then, Mr. Jefferson prepared an action to present to the District Court to ask for a recount. On the basis of the evidence presented to Judge J. Harlan Burns, he rejected Jr. Jefferson's plea and ordered Mr. Patrick Fenton, counsel for the defense, to prepare documents for his signature to show that Mr. Roberts was elected and denied the request for a recount. Mr. Jackson put all of the counting and election judges on the stand to ask if any ballots or votes for Mr. Jefferson had been rejected or discarded. It was shown that two ballots had been rejected because they were improperly marked. One write-ivote was discussed which might have been for Jefferson. However, the count of the votes in that race was 998 for Mr. Roberts and 981 for Mr. Jefferson. Even if the two ballots and the one vote were counted for Jefferson, he would still have lost by four votes.

As we all approach the Christmas Season, busy personal concerns often divert our attention from some of the "special" things which have become almost taken for granted as being part of the Holiday Season. Specifically, I would like to recommend to every school patron that time be taken to enjoy the Christmas programs being put on by each school. In addition to this recommendation, consideration could also wisely be directed to the tremendous extra time and effort that students, and particularly teachers, devote to these public displays of talent and 16-2- WEATHER carter-gunne- Member.
