The Post exchange is finished and everyone agrees that it is a much better looking "canteen" than it was formerly. The darkroom is nearly completed and much to the delight of the amateur photographers it is big enough to turn around in without spilling developer or fixing bath all over everything. The camp library is finished and it is also a bit larger. It affords a better display of books and magazines. With the completion of the reading room more classes are being started and Mr. Hamilton hopes to have a hundred percent educational program classin the near future. First-ai- d es for the new members have also started. ' ' The company basketball team has been busy the last few days. On Saturday the boys met defeat at the hands of the Provo CCC team. The score was 69 to 21. On Monday he boys again met defeat with' a score of 25 to 14. The victors were from Emery. The boys are not discouraged, however, and are eagerly awaiting the opening of the league schedule. Former Coach Cicchillo decided he could not sit on the side lines and see his team defeated so he resigned his position as coach and has turned out for practice. His place is ably taken by "Red" Almond. Red hopes to introduce some new plays that he is sure will bring home the bacon. As far as it is known the next game will be with the Ferron camp on or about the 18th of January. born and raised in Castle Dale died January 3, at Susanville; Calif., his death being attributed to exposure.

These additional thirty men will bring this company up to full normal strength again. Hy-ru- m, The men of the Ferron Camp have all recently returned from their Christmas or New Year's leave; six clays Including Satur- day and Sunday and either Christmas or New Year's day, depending upon which period of time the individual took his leave, were allowed each man for the occasion. Now that they are returned, work is going forth with renewed effort on the Forest Service projects. The construction of the Ferron canyon road is the main project upon which work is being done the present time. at v.. Monday morning not a man was sick in quarters, which speaks well for the camp In view of the much sickness that is scattered throughout the various towns and cities of the state. Educational Adviser Transferred Ernest H. Hansen, educational adviser of COC Company 959 for lf the past one and years, was transferred on January 1 to Company 561, Dalton Wells Camp, DG-3Moab, Utah. He will continue in the position of educational adviser at his new location. Mr. Hansen began his services with Company 959 on June 7, 1934, one-ha- 2, and has continued without interruption since that date, while at the Gooseberry, Mt. Pleasant and Ferron campsites. His services in general since that time has been the education of the several hundred enrollees who are or have been In the camp. He has taught or supervised the teaching of classes in forestry, mathematics, English, current events, botany, general courtesy, typewriting and a number of other subjects. He has assisted the chaplain in conducting of religious exercises in the camp. And he has not neglected the physical training either. He has coached teams in basketball, baseball, soft ball, track and other sports, and has come out with many winning teams, particularly in basketball and baseball. Minor sports infirst-ai- d, cluding boxing, wrestling, horseshoe pitching and swimming while at the Gooseberry location, all of which the educational adviser has directed. One of Mr. Hansen's accomplishments was the supervision in the construction of a log club house at Gooseberry. The boys secured the timber in the mountains, took it 'to the sawmill for squaring. The building was 40x20 feet with a 20x20 foot addition on one side all united into one room. The building was not used for a great length of time due to the early transfer from Gooseberry to Ferron, but it provided an ideal reading room, library, recreation hall assembly room, and even a small dance hall. It will be there ready for use at the beginning of the summer provided the camp moves back there another summer. The supervision of the camp paper "The CeCeYan" was also under Mr. Hansen's direction, of which around 40 weekly issues were put out during the period from November 1934 to December 1935. Everyone in camp was given the opportunity to do as much work as they desired in connection with the editing and publishing of this paper. Over fifty enrollees during this period took ad- vantage of the opportunity and gained some experience being editor, business manager, reporter, art editor and in contributing ar- ticles, editorials and poems, and other similar material, as well as in cutting stencils, typing copy, operating mimeograph machine, collecting ads., and other Jobs connected with the publishing of a paper. The company will greatly miss Mr. Hansen and all those with whom he has worked are deeply appreclatives for all the services he has rendered the company. . The direction of all educational activities will be under the supervision of Capt. Charles L. Hall, assisted by Ford Lucas, who Is at present the assistant educational . adviser. |
