From the size of the skull and leg bones it appears to have been a fairly good sized person, possibly an Indian. The estimated age of the man is 60 years, or older. The teeth are quite worn. The skull was fractured either by an arrow or a bullet. There is a hole and the bone has been chipped in front. Because of the condition of the bones it is believed to have been buried in a shallow grave and the elements have finally uncovered it. N0.B0X .8 Adam S.

S. average In both written and oral English,' he said.' In this connection he recommended going back to the basic reading, writing and rithmetic, and eliminating some of, the extra activities, to conserve time and money. While expressing the desirability of the more comprehensive program, Dr. Bennion was of the opinion that when limited in funds, we should teach fewer subjects, more thoroughly, and pay enough salary to get good teachers." In summing up the recommendations for What the schools ought to do, the speaker listed the following as requirements that the children should be taught: 1. Basic skills of reading-writinand arithmetic. 2. Good health training. 3. Vocation and preparation. 4. How to spend leisure time and what to do for recreation. 5. Social consciousness. 6. Worthy home membership, 7. Civic responsibility to national problems. 8. Sound economics. , In commenting on the last point, Dr. Bennion pointed out the falacy in the system of getting "federal aid for local projects. He pointed out that Utah pays $138 millions in direct federal taxes while hidden taxes brings the total to $240 million. To get a dollar of federal aid, our own money back, we must match it with a dollar. In that way it costs us two dollars to get one dollar in federal aid, he explained. The commission recommends that a resolution be passed by the legislature, asking that 10 percent of Utahs tax contribution be kept in Utah to finance our educational program, he said. Additional recommendations included a change in- the state text book commission to include people qualified in various fields, such as mining and agriculture, to set on the committee and approve or revise references to these various fields. Also recommended was the consolidation of some school districts in the interest of econ- Youth Has Poliomyelitis omy.
