Now, 't seems that her many years of toil may be rewarded. The National Park Service conducted a survey there last summer and the Utah Legislature, in its current session, passed a resolution asking to have the area established as a nationaal historic site. Last week, Sen. Wallace F. Bennett said he will introduce a bill to fulfill this request. He further outlines the steps which will be proposed.

And never did the frontier-blazer- s carve a more dramatic saga than the race between Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroad companies. What many persons may not know is that Promontory summit was once a hub of busy railroad activity, both at the joining of the rails and for several years after.
