This could influence the outcome of the Young-Burkcontest for county commissioner. And it is not unusual that the canvass would also alter the final tabulation. There was an indication that planning and zoning, stubbornly resisted in some rural areas of the county, was a factor in the commission races. Both of the incumbents, Young and Holmgren, seemed to suffer negative effects from the backlash in some smaller communities. e But while Holmgren overcame that with substantial city strength, particularly in Brigham City, Young had a tougher time n since in Burke he was opposed by a figure in Brigham City. well-know- Many Voted Republican It was obvious also that many independents and some Democrats voted the Republican ballot, possibly because it offered more primary contests. about Some 3,584 persons cast ballots (Continued From Page One) device in a city park.

MACK STODDARD art festival 305 N. Main at the A look non-winne- rs Judging the 95 entries in the annual Peach Days Art festival was a tough assignment, not only in making the decisions but also with the fact in mind that the public seldom agrees with art judges. Most of us make our art on what appeals to our own preferences, while professional judges at work make note of color, light, perspective, quality, texture, values and even the suitability of the frame to the total effect of the picture. So, its a good thing that the decision of the judges is final or they have to keep switching ribbons as each visitor went through the gallery. Since winners were already listed in the announcement of awards, a closer look at the nonwinners can be taken without casting any aspersions on the judges selections, although some of the winning entries can be looked at in another light-tha- t of history.

Colleen Bradfords North of Town isnt so detailed, and its lush mountains green wisely leave carefully and out the development and building boom that is stretching north of the city.
