Show 1 . ; i - "in: ' Stop, Look and Listen n s ) Familiarity breeds contempt, according to the old saying, and undoubtedly this is true, judging from the alarming number of recent crossing accidents in Box Elder county, all along the seldom used Union Pacific branch line to Malad. i In a period of four months, four crossing accidents have been reported on this line resulting in four deaths, two injuries and property loss of nearly $5,000. , The.first was at Garland on Oct. 14, resulting in an injury. The second at Tremonton on Nov. 15, also resulting in an injury. Then death struck at Portage on Dec. 12 and again on Feb. 16 when three lives were snuffed out in a grinding crash near Bear River City. All were familiar with the crossing used, they were aware of the uncertainty of the train schedules. It looks vllke a clear case of failure to heed the warning, Stop, Look and Listen." Cars and trucks always come out second best in a crossing accident. If hit, the driver is to blame because by y law, trains have at all crossings. ; Where blinking red signals are used to protect crossings, motorists by .law are required to come to a full stop just as they are at any other red signal, proceed only after making certain the way is clear. That rule applies on Brigham Citys West Forest street as well as all other crossings. Engineers complain road crossings are their biggest headaches . . . and heartbreaks. They never know when they see an approaching car whether its going to rush up to the crossing and stop on a dime, whether the driver is going to try to beat the train across or whether he intends to commit suicide. ' Regardless of the drivers intentions, there is little the engineer can do. Its seldom he could possibly stop the train in time to avoid a crash and he would probably have a tough time explaining how he flattened all of the wheels on the train if he threw it into emergency stop. So he has to depend on his whistle and pray for the best. But motorists can do better than that. All it takes is a little caution when approaching a crossing. Most of them are open and an approaching train can be seen at a great distance. If it has an obstructed view, then common sense would dictate even greater caution. . Just because you have crossed these same tracks only a short time before, is no reason for relaxing your vigil. Remember, the life you save will be your own. , . : right-of-wa- t . , Senior Class BSSHRE- POTHR. - gef More For Production By Wendy Foster the After one postponement cast of the annuai senior play is to present .My Three Angels on March 7 and 8 in the Box Elder High school auditorium at 8 p. m.

But that only tells part of the story. Actually, the season was a great success. It will always be just that, win or lose, if the boys put up a good lesson of good sportsmanship. fight, learn the Of course winning also is important. It is conducive to better gate receipts for one thing, to say nothing of , school spirit. But school spirit at Box Elder couldnt be higher with a state championship team and for that we pay our respects to the cheer leaders, the BEttes, the pep band and the entire student body. For teaching sportsmanship and team play as the highest rewards of the game, we pay tribute to Coach Grant Moser and his staff.
