Dec. 30 r-- PfcESS By UNITED Holiday - bound Americans started on their New Year's outing Saturday and the national safety council predicted that mora than 350 of them would never return. An appeal was made to the public to drive carefully. For the most part they traveled In pleasant weather although northern New England had sub zero temperatures and there was some snow along the upper Great Lakes region, into Minnesota and the Rocky Mountain States. Driving conditions, in many locations were bad because of recent heavy snows and this was expected to contribute to highway, deaths which tha safety council said would reach 350 between 6 pjn. Friday night and midnight Tuesday. The accidental death toll over the recent Christmas holiday set new records of 555 persons killed in traffic accidents and 301 deaths due to other causes. However, the holiday lasted four days compared with only tnree days during wnicn the prei vious record was set. 3 Crash Damage Springville : Without Power Suits Filecfv Two crash damage suits, one and the During Storm seeking a total of were filed otherasklng : Fcr $165,000, In Evanstcn Wreck NEW YEAR'S EVE MIDNIGHT SHOW PLEASANT GROVE-lThlev- es broke and entered a back window of the Three-Wa- y Motor company and escaped wih $175 in night cash- according to the sheriff's office.

In fifth ranking in the opinion of the editors was the selection of CoUeen Kay Hutchins, a who was a beauty queen at both Brigham Young university and University of Utah, as Miss America of 1951. Queen Colleen,, who was promoted from the less-glamourous spot of Miss Utah, still reigns at the year's end. Lee-Ba- te man Fend feud between The year-lon- g Gqv J. Bracken Lee and Supf. of Instruction E. Allen. Bateman was voted the sixth story of 'SI 'in Utah. It, too, was far from over as 32 loomed over the horizon. Seventh story of 1952 in Utah was a grim one the firing squad execution, after a five-ye-ar legal battle to escape death, of Eliseo J. Mares ifor a hitchhike slaying. and the similar rifle death three weeks later of an Ogden sex slayer; Ray Dempsey Gardner. The special session of the legis lature, which in some ways was an aftermath of the battle but primarily a result of economy, driving by the governor, was not spectacular, but was of enough merit to rate an eighth place in the poll. ' Grand Jury Ninth was a basically local story for Provo but one that had statewide implications: the Utah county grand jury sessions, its report. and the blasting of the report by Lee and. other officials as based on politics. Reverberations of it will continue next year. Last among the top ten stories was a yarn about Indians the uprising down in the Four Corners country oi xsavaos who were fired up with whiskey and unhappy over grazing rights.; Also associated "with this development was the "payment . a few months later of thousands of dollars to Ute Indians in partial settlement of their claims against the govV . ernment. Each editor selected 10 stories. In ranking them, United Press allowed 10 points for a first choice, nine for second; and so on- down the line. By this method, the prison hassle voted tops ,by three editors and at least fourth" by theother seven received 88 points. The Evanston wreck was 10 points behind at 78. Smith's death rated 71 points, two more than the polio epidemic and experiments. .Hutchins Story , e From there down, there was a wide gap. Miss Hutchins' Vise to national fame received 32 votes, the feud 31, executions 25, legislature 22, grand jury 14 and Indians 13.; In addition to the top 10, there were 18 other stories mentioned in at least. 10th place by the votorder of ranking ing editors.
