Mr. and Mrs. Nick Chournos and thejr son, Johnnie and his wife, Sherrie Ann, of Tremonton recently returned from a California visit where the veteran sheep rancher met his cousin, Angeliki Zampathos, whom he hadn't seen for 65 years.

Chase allayed district fears of being left out by noting: "If we haven't spelled it out in the application, I'm sure that this can be ined. "We found it to be from some relatives in California that we had lost track of and they of us." It seems the relatives had read an article written about Chournos and published in the April issue of the National Geographic magazine as part of a spread on Utah.. The article prompted the letter and a note that his would cousin "surely like to hear from him and see him if possible,". Mrs.. Chournos affirmed. ,' The two cousins finally met after exchanging letters and telephone calls. ;; "They enjoyed the treat of talking over old times and reminiscing over growing up together in the same village, almost like brother and sister," Mrs. Chournos said. ,The cousins gjew up in a village known as J)a via in Greece where they herded a few head of sheep and goats GENERAL ELECTRIC I; INSTANT SPRAY STEAM IRON together on the sparse vegetation that existed on the hills around the village.

He promised to bring the subject up at the next BRAG meeting. Tingey noted that in only one of a number of other approved 208 programs in the state have Soil Conservation Districts been included in the process. "There is a great concern because of the agricultural nature of this county," he said. In a letter to commissioners read by Allen, the group asked that "some SCD supervisors" be appointed to the governing body administering the 208 study if the county commission "does not elect to designate districts as the lead agency..." "As Soil Conservation District Supervisors, wo feel we have much experience and to available information contribute to this planning process,' the letter noted. 'Districts have been involved with controlling erosion from all sources for the past 35 years ; no other organization, either private or governmental, has the experience and recdrd of accomplishments that districts have..." Floyd Bailey, district conservationist, said farmers concerned" are "vitally about the types of corrective measures that will be mandated after the study. They obviously want a say in those measures. "And I don't know who would be better qualified," Chase said. Commissioner Ted Burt when the original application was submitted said he didn't realize it affected anything other than the Bear River and the Malad..."but it includes everything." The study will include everything from the problem of sediment being washed into the rivers off of farms to animal waste seeping into rivers from nearby feedlots.

Present besides the notables already mentioned were E.E. Monson, sec. of state; Grover C. Giles, attorney general; Reese M. Reese, state auditor; Oliver Ellis, state treasurer; Charles H. Skidmore, state school official; Captain R.V. Miller, U.S. Navy; Brig. Gen. Ralph Talbot Jr.; H.A. Dixon, President of Ogden Chamber of Commerce as well as president of Weber College; E.J. Fjelsted, seci of the Salt Lake City Chamber of Commerce as well as many other prominent men and women. William Warner, the oldest living pensioner of the Union Pacific, was there by special invitation. The county camp of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers was represented by Mrs. Dan Petersen, Carl president and Mrs. Hansen, secretary. Many of those present possessed no special titles but were important citizens nevertheless. In attendance were farmers and ranchers from central and western Box Elder county. .They were possibly the least enthusiastic of the hat wavers. They could well remember that over the years, millions of bushels of grain had been hauled from their dry farms to the train and on to market. They could also recall the numerous winters when the trains hauled feed which meant the difference between a total loss and the salvation of large herds of cattle sheep, horses and huddled along the right of when ten miles way-tim- es of snow blanketed desert might as well have been a thousand miles except for the relief the train afforded. They could hardly be blamed for not being 100 percent happy with the event of that September day. There were others present who had argued that keeping the old line intact was a j j safety measure should espionage during the war deCutoff. stroy the Lucin These views were labeled overly pessimistic and ign- ored. The "last rail" of the old line, the one the golden spike had helped clamp in place, was secured by Ed Ward of the Box Elder Junior Chamber of Commerce on behalf of that organization. That rail is now on display on the retaining wall of the court house grounds at Brigham City. Adjacent to the rail is a granite stone inscribed with an explanation of the significance of the historic relic line-4h- e of the old east-werail which served where the golden spike was driven and later removed. There is usually someone around to cast doubt on things people wish to believe, so a question surfaced as to the possibility of "any" rail surviving 73 years use on the railroad. That doubt is substantiated by a quote from Appendix D, "History of Union Pacific Railroad" which in turn is quoted in "The History of Box Elder County" compiled by Daughters of Utah Pioneers. It is as follows: "Immediately after the ceremonies ( 1869), the laurel tie (and the spikes of precious metal) was removed for preservation, and in its place an or- ft. 1AND WX MlttER Awcado sL00f 6 speed n olished, and a new one substituted, this too, shared the same fate, and probably within the first six months, there were many new ties used. It is said that even one of the rails did not escape the grand battery of knife and hack, and the original had soon to be removed to give place to another." At any rate the one on the courthouse grounds served in the same spot as the last or not. rail-origi- nal colors U 2.00 relief of simple For mixer. I j Reg.
