Band Concerts .'For Rummer Nights At a business meeting of the board of governors of the Lions club held Wednesday night, the matter of sending a delegation to the district convention to be held at American Fork on Wednesday, May 28, was taken up and a communication fromtthe district governor read, in which was outlined the program arranged for those who attend the convention. This includes, a big chicken dinner and visits to all the scenic attractions, of which American Fork is a pivot. While there will be certain number of official delegates to the convention, named by each club in the district, the invitation to attend, the public functions and the scenic trips, is extended to all Lions and their families. A liberal interpretation was read into the invitation so as" to include all Lions, their wives and sweethearts; the entire families of Lions and those in prospect. It was the general sense of the meeting that every member of the club should put forth an effort to attend the convention, and so enthusiastically was this suggestion received that it is not unlikely that the delegation will be one of the largest at the gathering. Lion R. S. Calderwood, chairman of th(committee on constitution and j, submitted a suggestion to the . irVfc that a printed copy of same, siXibe placed in the hands of every mev ; of the club, and upon motion it was' decided to do this at the next Tre-mont- on by-L- regular h ncheon-moetin- on May 7. g Lion James Walton called the attention of the governors to the fact that he had a conference with Prof. George. 0.

W. Wadsworth. H. G. Scott, and Henry Rhode, were directed to take the matter under consideration and to take such steps as might be deemed necessary. The matter of the improvement of the road leading from the state highway north through Riverside and Fielding was brought up on the report of Lion Winchester, chairman, of the roads committee, but as no definite action had thus far been taken in the matter, it was referred back to the committee, it being the sense of the board of governors, that no action on their part was called for, until such as a comprehensive report had "ne i-filed by the roads committee.

The battery for Tremonton was: Johnson, Watkins and Sutherland; Ogden: Profazes and Birtoh. Next Sunday the Rough Riders will be lined up against the Ogden Sporting Goods company team. It has been reported that Lefty Manning will do the chucking for the Ogden outfit, Lefty will long be remembered by local fans as the pitcher who struck out 18 batsmen and then lost his game when the Americans met the Mutual team a few years back.

It is pointed out that in past years the city has been represented by an excellent ball club, and at the end of every season, the name of the Tremonton Bears was to be found leading the league or The right up among the Tremonton Bears was a name to conjure with, and the reputation of the team, shared in by the city itself, in variably brought ready response for games with opposing teams, and as sured a goodly attendance. It may be in the cards that the newly organized "Rough Riders, may achieve a name Tor themeselves equal to that of the Bears, but it is certain they will have a long road to travel before such a contingency will eventuate. The pur pose ot changing the name, as an nounced by the management is a desire to boost for the county fair ana rodeo, when playing away from home. well-wor- p-- cf p, . Car Goes Into Ditch Injuring Glenn Boys George and Vernon, 18, and 15, res pectively, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Walter J. Glenn, of Blue Creek, were seriously injured Sunday about 4 p. m., when the Ford car in which four boys were embank riding, went over an ment, about 9 miles west of Tremonton, on the Blue Creek Strevell Road, The other two boys in the car were, Darwin, a brother of the injured Glennsj and Glenn Jeppson of Brig-haCity. They were returning from the Glenn ranch in Blue Creek, and while making a curve in the road, just east of the Stohl ranch, something went wrong with the steering gear and the car plunged over the embank ment, rolling over twice. George received two or three broken ribs and Vernon a fractured hip. The other two boys escaped with minor scratches. The injured boys were brought to the Valley Hospital at Tre monton by .Sam Schrenk and Oscar borenson. George, the elder of the boys, is a senior student the Box Elder High School, and will graduate from that institution unless his injuries will keep him out too long a time. ot m 'f 4-- H - in, Demonstrations Held At Brigham Ctiy The first of a series of demonclub leaders stration meetings for 4-- H was held in the Court House at Brig-haon Monday afternoon, March 28th with ten leaders and officers from South Box Elder present.

He was an expert mechanic and had received recognition for his courage and ability while in service. Besides NOW COMPLETED Dr. Geddes Offers Brief Statement On Some Phases Of Work After a comprehensive study of the social contact in this community, made by Dr. Jos. A. Geddes and Alden Lilly-whit- e, of the U. 5. A. C, these men. have made a brief preliminary statement outlining some of the things covered in the study. A great deal of time and money has been expended in the gathering of the data needed. Over 300 records have been kept of individuals showing: a strict account of the time expended in labor, study, recreation and other things that occupy the time of individuals. In these different pursuits the record will indicate what benefit, or detrement and to what extent, if any, has been gained by the individual through the different contacts. This work has been followed religiously by these men and the people who kept the records, especially, will await with much interest a final r- Dort of their survpv. Tt will h Infer. esting indeed to know as a community now we live, act ana nave our oeing from those who have made a study of the same leaving nb room for chance or guess work as to the actual conditions as they exist. The following is the Rtfltpmont. re ferred to in the beginning of this art 1 1 - 1 1 a 1 - icle. Our series of five meetings held in connection with your Mutual Improvement meetings ended with the month of March and we had only begun on our program of providing supplementary materials to the Social Contact Study. Any effort to make a record of Social Contacts, soon forces attention to the nucles around which contacts Let us suppose our comconverge. munity is a live progressive one which is realizing a well balanced growth. In that event it will have e vigorous, agencies dealing with the problems of P ublic Health, Economic wide-awak- Advancement, Religious Welfare, Recreational Improvement, Library and reading facilities, Community and Physical Plant and etc. The extent to which a fine type of Leadership has developed in these fields, provides a good index or barometer of progressive spirit. If active groups are operating in such fields, the people will naturally be exposed to many Social Contacts having to do with the solution of problems arising out of economic programs, health betterment, the extension of good reading opportunities, religious training, community planning including landscaped improvements about public buildings, private houses, streets, parks, cemeteries, etc. Quite obviously if a month's record of a perron's Social Contacts shows only long hours of work supplemented with a religious meeting or two to satisfy conscience and a picture show or an automobile ride for personal entertainment, either such a person is shirking duties or the community is backward in not providing him with opportunity to serve in necessary fields. The primary purpose of the meetings was to have a committee report on what has been done in each of the principal fields during the past year and to provide a program for the coming year which was to be discussed by the group. Two of these reports were given: Economic Advancement and the Improvement of the Physical Plant. Another report on library and recreational facilities was prepared by Mrs. Jenkins' Committee but was not given because of the limited amount of time available, r I hope suitable opportunity will be found for the hearing and the discussion of this report. Five meetings were only enough to open up the subject Tremonton could well afford to spend a much longer time on her own local problems. Well! the Social Contact records are all finished now. There are 300 of them. We want to thank very heartily (Continued on page four) - his wife, Maude Miller Nelson, and two children. Norma, 4, and Odell, 2, he is survived by his parents.
