BASEBALL CLUB Yniinrctrc f TrAint" veterans tor riace ' ,un iteguiar lineup The base ball season was ushered in on the local sand lot last week with a snappy ten inning game. It took an xtra stanza for a group of 1930 regulars to subdue a team of scrapping yannagans, the score was 9 to 10. The prospects for a winning team are much brighter than they were at this time last spring, the team should be stronger in every department with probably the pitching staff the only exception. The following men from the '30 squad will report for duty, Evans and Harris, catchers; McDowell first base; Height, second base, short stop; Conger, third base; Green, Cropley, Beck and Shuman, out fielders. Hook Johnson will be chucking in the Ogden City League. It is quite probable that Rex Hunsaker will not s be on the squad this summer and plans to abandon and try for a regular infield birth, he is a powerful hitter and a good fielder and will no doubt make the younger players rustle to beat him out of a position provided he takes his base ball seriously. There is a number of youthful pitch ing hopes working hard to make the mnad. the most nromisme of the lot are: Evan Green, Bert Bessinger and jLJSldon Gardner. Joe Anderson, Slim atherland and Dent Rich, veterans of many seasons, may also make a come back. There will be plentv of keen compe tition for both the infielders and outfielders before the regular squad is chosen. Ken Randall, shortstop for Centerville last year in the Davis County League will be but trying for an infield job. Jerry Morgan and Evan Green of Bear River High are also likely looking infielder rookies. In the game last week Arch Richard son and Wes Gephart both showed class at the hot corner. Bill Waldron and Lee Morgan will also be rustling for a place on the team. The new men who are going to make a strong hid for the garden posts are Fat Crop ley, Darral Heaton, Ken Cornwall, Russ Waldron, Vernal Harris and Clark Stalker. The first game of the season will be Tremonton Rough Riders April 26 vs. Alpha Delta Epsilon Fraternity of Utah .State Aggies, Logan, Utah, Wal-dro- er SPUD GROWERS n, GET WARNING Lowest Price in Years Forecast Unless Acreage Is Reduced Wat-kin- Box Elder A TIWTd) TO NUMBER TREMONTON, UTAH, THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1931 VOLUME SIX 4 TF Co.

Mr. reterson explained that there were sufficient members in the Brigham City Fire Department to man an extra Fire Engine in case the County saw fit to make such a purchase.

This would mean a yield of 430,000,000 bushels, as compared with 361,000,000 in 1930, when Teague said, "great difficulty" was experienced to sell at a satisfactory price.

Hicks Says Raise in Price of Stock Ukely Reports emanating from the officials of the Century Consolidated Gold Mining Co. are of a very optomistic nature and indicate that things are progressing satisfactorily in Box Elder County's gold mining district Recently a compressor was installed and every day sees progress and new developments in the workings. Heber C. Hicks, one of the leading officials of the company, was in town the fore part of the week and was all smiles over the way work was progressing. He stated that he thought showings and developments had been made to such an extent that they would be justified in raising the stock at least 5 cents a share at the present time. Mr. Hicks has taken a number of expert men to the mine who have been free to express their opinion that the mine is destined to be one of the big producers of the state. Hundreds of people have taken stock in justifying their belief in the mine and the men who are promoting it. Many have given their second and third order of !' stock. The people generally in Box Elder feel kindly toward the development of this proposition and have shown a very cooperative and willing attitude to help develop the same by the pur ' , chase of stock. Tests taken at the mine reveal the fact that there are no metals of foreign matter which would interfer and make it unprofitable to mill even at low grade ores, the fact which of itself practically insures a profitable mining proposition. . - " Musical Treat to be Given Public, April 26 The musical concert, which is being sponsored by the stake presidency and under the direction of Joseph H.
