UTAH COPPER PAYS ' PROPERTY TAX Utah Copper Division of Kenne-cott Copper Corporation paid in property taxes for 1959 last Friday, but the hug fig-ure was $39,614.13 less than it paid last year. The tax payment handed the Salt Lake Treasurer's office by Stephen S. Waldron, administrative accountant for the division, was compared to $9,809,448.06 paid by the state's largest copper producer in 1958. The 1958 property tax bill was the largest single payment to be made in the history of the state. Division officials explained that the decrease was due primarily to a drop in the property valuation of its huge ore body in Bingham Can-yon. Property valuations on ore bodies in the state of Utah are bas-ed on net proceed of the three previou years. Net proceeds were down for the Bingham Canyon mine for the years 1956 to 1958. This lowered the computed property valuation of the mine. This year's property tax pay-ment by Utah Copper was based on a total company property valua-tion of $194,164,811. This was compared to $255,453,576 in pro-perty valuation in 1958. Actually, the Utah Copper Divis-ion's total Utah tax bill, including franchise (corporate income) sales and severance tax will be $12,030,-00- 0 thi year. Largest share of the tax payment some $7,595,800, will bo to pub-lic schools, officials said. O - CHARLES R. COX NAMED CHAIRMAN OF HEART FUND Charles R.

' FOR AND ABOUT TEENAGERS By C. D. Smith What Does A Girl Stand To Lose? iHAD NOTHING I TO LOSE BY I GOING... fT? ker father continues to be dis-pleased with her because the made a mistake. But, she is very wrong when she says that she has "noth-ing to lose." If she continues to be friendly, with these boys or goes riding with them, she will certain-ly lose forever the chance to win back her father's trust and con-fidence. All of us make mistakes, at one time or another. And we gen-erally must pay for these mis-takes- in one way or another. But when we recognize that some-thing is wrong, and then continue to do it, we are no longer making a "mistake." We are deliberately doing something that we know is wrong. There is a big difference. We think the young lady can win back her father's confidence if she keeps the right kind of company and proves by her ac-tions and attitude that she is striving to be the type of daughter that he wants her to be. She must not let that one "mistake" turn into a habit.

I This week's letter: "Ever since I started high school, my par-ents have been strict with me. Maybe it's because I rode home from a ball game with three boys that were pretty wild. Nothing happened, honest, but someone started stories about me. When my parents asked me about rid-ing home with these boys, I lied. My brother said he heard some-one say they saw me with them. Finally, I told the truth that I did ride home with them. I have tried to make friends with nice kids so I could win back my par-ents' confidence. I won back my mother's, but not my dad's. Be-fore all this happened, we were pretty close; now he acts like he hates me. He says I should forget all about boys. Recently, some wild boy's asked me to go riding with them. I refused. Afterwards, I asked myself why I didn't. I had nothing to lose." This young lady is apparently very much hurt by the fact that LIONS CLUB TO MEET MONDAY NIGHT, DEC. 7 Bingham Canyon Lion Club will hold a regular business meeting Monday night, Dec. 7 at the Civic Center at 6 p.m. according to C.
