CONGRATULATIONS THIS WEEK go to a bunch of kids representing the Altonah American Legion post, who Tuesday proved that hustle and fight, along with a bit of natural ability, can ascend to the heights of champions in their first year as a baseball team. . . Playing under the name of Altamont, coached by Ross Iorg and managed by Ken Bearden, a gang of kids overcame the handicap of inexperience in junior baseball, and won five out of six games in the first year they have ever entered a team in Legion baseball. . . They will now go into district playoffs, and if their luck and spirit hold out, they could go into the state finals. . . They beat three other fine teams, who along with all the Basin will be pulling for their continued success. t This months issue H.

I join all his friends in congratulating Judge Wilcken on being honored by the Fish and Game Association of Utah. GEORGE 9 ....
