It might seem in some minds rather early to beat the drums for community beautification, landscape improvement, litter control, etc. But with last weeks county kickoff, we consider it an appropriate time for sounding off about the subject. Now is the time for planning and laying the groundwork for activity when spring arrives. At this early date there appears to be a ground-swel- l of interest, probably spawned in part by the governors crash program to create a more attractive Utah in 1970. WE SEE SOME exciting things ahead. For instance: Box Elder High school student leaders gave assurance the school is sincere about protecting the cleanup title it won in state-wid- e competition last year. As a county, Box Elder is in the beautification business for the first time with Dr. Robert Poulson leading the way. Brigham City will complete Special Improvement District No. 16 this year and is making preparations for another district. Additional park improvement, highway entrance lighting, stepped-udisposal of cars, introduction of a home and yard improvement contest plus continuation of existing efforts are on the Brigham enthusiastically But Mom didnt notice it until we were walking down David Call, local cafe entrepreneur, is a man who wants to see credit paid where it is due.

He noted that these students listened with rapt attention to every piece and expressed their appreciation through a tremendous ovation. For two years the Utah Symphony played for the Indian students under a grant from the Bureau of Indian Because federal funds were not forthcoming this year, KSL and the arts department agreed to assist in the sponsorship of these concerts. Distinguished guests at Wednesdays concerts will include Utahs first lady, Mrs. Calvin L. Rampton, and a former U.S. commissioner for Indian Affairs, Arthur V. Watkins. 21. They will give two back to back concerts for the approximately 2,000 Indian students, beginning at 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. concerts are jointly Wednesdays sponsored by KSL, the Utah Symphony and the Intermountain School Cultural Arts department, headed by Joseph K, Webster. For 20 years it was the dream of Maestro Abravanel to play for the In. dian school. That dream finally came true two years ago on Sept. 22, 1967, when two concerts were given before the entire studentbody. Says Industrial Aide Industrial promotion is everybodys job including city officials, real estate brokers, and all kinds of businessmen in the community. to work together. InWe have dustrial promotion is your business as well as our business. These remarks were made by Jack H. Alston, director of the Utah Industrial Promotion division, during the annual Brigham City Chamber of Commerce banquet at the BPO Elks lodge Wednes-da- y night. William L. Packer gave a presidents report for the past year and surrendered the gavel to Robert C. Coleman, the new chamber of commerce president for 1970, during a banquet ceremony. President Coleman then presented the former president a plaque with a gavel attached, and his name and tenure in. scribed . on it. The new president introduced Presi. t Gene Henderson and members of the board of directors; Max Hamilton, DeVon Breitenbeker, Richard Hadfield, Paul Morrell, D. D. Billings, Tuff Lee W. Tauferner, G. A. Nebeker and Farrell Jensen. Boyd E. Newman is this years treasurer. Packer summed up the year by commending the work of the s chamber of commerce and told 130 at the banquet, the importance of the chamber. The past president said an example of the fine work done by the chamber was plainly seen in the Golden Spike promo. tion. He said Frank Coppin, secretary, manager, did 100 percent of a good job for Brigham City and Box Elder county during this time. The guest speaker at the annual din. Clay-baug- h, s. Past-Preside- cul-tur- per-son- -- ner, Alston, gave the Brigham City businessmen and idea of the activity of the UIPD in promoting Utah as the ideal place for business to settle. Even though Brigham City recovered quite well after the 1963 decline of em. ployment at Thiokol, industrial is still important to the city. He said Brigham City showed a school enrollment increase, telephone sub. scribers were up and Thiokol showed an Increase in employment, all in past n dent-Elec- Signs Master Agreement With BEEA The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-daSaints, and in for abuse the persecution target 1800s, is of revival criticism which a experiencing appears to be growing in its intensity. in their Opponents, although discriminating attacks based on group interests, have managed to assail the church on virtually all fronts.

But there are 1,850 persons in Box county driving daily to Weber coun. ty for work, and most likely these people would like to work in Box Elder county. Alston explained that this was one reason industrial promotion was Important to Brigham City and Box Elder county. He said the promotion is an effort by the state to provide certain facts for companies interested in Utah for a pos. Elder sible site. Emphasizing the importance that promotion is everybodys job, Alston, said companies usually make from 40 to 50 contacts before making up their minds. He said they talk to state agencies, community agencies and other industries about the benefits of an area theyre interested in. Once the industry is in the state we turn it over to the areas they wish to go to, said Alston. You people on the local level have to provide the community information, and take over after we get them in the state, he emphasized. Backing up the importance of the in. dustrial promotion division, Alston said, Utah relies too heavily on government employment and should go after com. mercial employment. y Box Elder School Board Elects Warren E. Hansen as President A veteran member of the Box Elder Board of Education, Warren, E. Han. sen, has been elected to head the panel as president this year. The action came at Wednesdays regular board meeting. Hansen, now In his third term and 12th year as a member, succeeds Eberhart Zundel. Elected vice president was Delorls Stokes of Bothwell. The new board president who resides at East Garland represents District No. 1 which includes Garland and the western county area. He served as board presi. dent once previously.

Promontory in Spotlight Editor: Some of your readers, especially out in the Promontory area, may be interested in knowing that their area is the subject of the "train segment of the premiere Johnny Cash shop to be aired on ABC Jan. 21. Cash does a dialogue about the men who toiled on the transcontinental railroad and then he breaks into a ballad which has Promontory, Utah in its chorus. He discusses the 100th anniversary of the joining of the rails and does a fine job. Utah couldnt get a better tourist promotion event if the tourist commission hired a Madison Avenue adversising firm. This is strictly opinion, but I believe its one of the finest performances that Cash has made. Rose-Mar(my wife) and I attended the taping of the premiere show here in Nashville last week. Nashville and Vanderbilt may lack some of the scenery and color of Box Elder and Cache and Utah State, but the entertainment is fantastic. Best of all-i- ts free. Talking about scenery and color back there reminds me of something Kristine (my daughter) said to me recently. We were walking to the campus when she looked up at me and said, "Dad, I sure miss Utah. I looked down and asked her what it was that she missed, and she replied, "I miss the sky, and the can eat the snow mountains, and the clean snow-y- ou in Utah, Daddy. "Its always clean. As we walked, she continued, "And the clouds are always white. "Theyre not red, and brown, and dirty like they are here. Children are sensitive beings. They take notice of changes in their environment that go unnoticed by and I dont plead ignortheir parents. Rose-Marance, however. As soon as we finish graduate school, well be back to eat some of that clean snow.
