Coach Moyle Knudson named at least ten squad members to make the trip to the Spartan's lair. Starters will be Bob Brough, center; Boyd Marble and Dale Gardner, forwards; Eldon Anderson and Cleon Summers, guards. This combination averaging about 5 ft. 11 inches in height has speed, passes well and handles the ball with a lot of class. The Bear's high scorng player in previous games was Boyd Mar ble. Other speedy floor artists on the front line are: Jay Cullimore. Jesse Archibald, Duaine Madsen and John Harding, forwards; Jim Felsted, Willard Anderson and Bob Hawks, guards. The Bears have dropped practice tilts to North Summitt and Soda Springs but have come out with considerable experience. The Spartans were runners-u- p in last year's Region One play and are expected to put another strong team on the floor to oppose the Bears. They have shown considerable power and scoring punch in turning back such teams as Mont-peliand Preston in practice games. Keith Hughes, Spartan captain, might be the man for the Bears to watch. In a recnt game he piled up eleven of the team's counters. thirty-eigNext Friday, December 29, will find the Fears playing host to the Ogden Tigers.

This committee of farmers will administer the Agri cultural Adjustment Agency in the county during thecoming year. The new committee take office Janu aiy 1st. A. V. Bishop, of Garland, was to chairmanship of the committee. Dona'd J. Homer, of will act as vice chair man of the committee. Carl Shrib er, a prominent farmer of Howell, will act as the third member of the committee. Mr. Shribor has been community committeeman for the past three years. At the same time, C. A. Hall, of Brigham City, and A. R. Buxton of Garland, were selected as alternate members of the committee to serve when regular members are unable to perform official duties, or to fill the unexpired terms of regular members of the committee, should any vacancies occur. Previous to the county convention, community elections were held in each of Box Elder County's nine communities, at which members and alternates of each community committee were chosen, together with delegates to the county convention. Community committeemen chosen by their neighbors to serve during the coming year as the representatives in the local administration of the AAA program include: A. W. Bishop, Donald J. Homer, Peter C. C. Petersen, Wm. Wood, Morris Reeder, C. A. Hall, A. R. Buxton, Dan Hickman and Jess Earl. Because the AAA organization is m?.di up of farmers and extends into every community in the nation it has been given many responsi bilities in connection with the war, besides its regular job of encour aging soil and water conservation, adjusting in the administration of price supporting measures. Examples of some o these "extra" responsibilies that have been assumed by county AAA committees and their d are assisting farm ers with their farm transportation problems include tires and gaso line, assisting farmers to obtain lumber, copper wire, farm machin ery, new and used trucks, crawler tractors and other farm supplies and equipment; assisting in deficiency areas; assisting farmers to obtain priority ratings for neces sary farm construction and for items of equioment and supplies whose distribution is restricted by preference ratings; assisting in the disnosal of surplus war property to farmers, and many other duties relating to the war effort.

A. A. committee, to consider seriously the sugar situation and plan for as large an increase of sugar beets as possible. Even though the 1915 state goal of 45,000 acres represents an increase of only 32 per cent over the 1943-4acreage, Mr. Skeen pointed out that it represents only S8 per cent of the 1937-4average acreage and is 500 less than could be planted in this state, according to production capacity studies. "Producers should keep in mind that if we expect to do well with a sugar program in future years, we will need sugar beet history on our farms," Mr. Skecn declared. In establishing the 1945 sugar beet goal, primary consideration is given to tb requirement and supply situation for the crop year beginning October 1, 1945. It is expected that the supply situation will be more critical under 1945 requirements, some beet sugar produced in 1945 can be marketed late that year, thus easing to some extent the anticipated tight situation in the fall. U. S. requirements are premised upon the assumption that no sugar will be used for industrial alcohol and that rationing controls will be continued throughout the period at approximately current levels. Statistics show that distribution to U. S. civilians during the year Which ended June 30, 1944, totaled 5,&00,000 tons. A sugar beet and sugar cane goal for the mainland. Involving an increase of about 600,000 tons of production above 1944, is proposed, Mr. Skeen said. To obtain the required continental production of about 2,200,000 tons would require a sugar acreage in 1945 of 951,000 acres, assuming cane sugar production to be at about available processing capacity. The suggested national 1945 sugar beet goal is approximately CO per cent greater than the acreage for either of the past two years, but is 100,000 acres less 4 1 than 1942. Recent developments in the ue of segmented seed, mechanical blockers and harvesting machines will result in lowering the labor requirements of the 1945 crop. Servicemen Receive Personal Christmas Grcetincr From School Under the direction of Miss Woodside and the Agenda officers, the Bear P.iver high school has sent out holiday letters to all former Bear River students now serving in the armed forces.
