Show A' avv v V Volume 5 wy No. 43 SAUNA, UTAH, FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1923 Thin Ice For Lilt M Sim Entertainment features for s to the big Intermountain Live, stock Show to be held in Salt Lake, April 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, are not being overlooked committee in by the The announcement has been charge. made that one part of the entertain, merit program will be a boxing card that will bring together two of the classiest boxeis in the intermountain country. lliey are Spug Meyers, fistic idol of Pocatello, claimant of the intermountain welterweight title, and Frankie Darien, the Utah favorite visi-toi- from Logan. Meyers and Darren attempted to settle the welterweight supremacy of the intermountain district when they battled ten rounds to a draw before several thousand people in the Bon. neville pavillion at Salt Lake, a few weeks ago. The bout was generally admitted to be one of the best ever staged in Salt Lake, and Darren and Meyers supporters were equally loud in their claims that their man should have had the decision. Visitors at the Livestock Show will have the opportunity to see the two boys meet again on April 6 this time for fifteen rounds, a bout long enough that it is considered certain that one will pile up enough of a lead to get the referees decision. Special reservations will 'be pro. ivided for exhibitors and visitors at the Livestock Show by the committee in charge. .Besides the Darren-Mey-er- s bout, five preliminary matches have been arranged by Hardy K. Downing, promoter of the Manhat tan Boxing Club of Salt Lake, whe will be in charge of the fight pro gram. Continued reports made to the Livestock Committee of the Salt Lake Commercial Club have dispelled all doubt, but that the Live-stoc- k Show will be the biggest ever held both from point of exhibitor? and from spectators, according to R. N. Mead, Secretary of theAgri. culture and Livestock division of the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce and director of the Livestock Show. Stockmen all through the north-wes- t are evincing great interest ir the show, and entries already made indicate that all the states of the district, particularly Oregon, Idaho Montana and Nevada, will be wel1 Sheepmen are taking r represented. than in former years interest greater and will have a large number of rep resentatives on hand, both as tors and purchasers. exhibi- George t.

Make Inspection Trii the appeal made by the citizens of Salina, made to the members of the school board at Richfield last Friday, announcement is made that the board will make a trip ol inspection and ascertain the needs ol the several districts throughout the county. S. M. Jorgensen, local member of of the county school board stated that a special meeting is call, ed for tomorrow and that definite action will then be made as to the building program for 1923. Generally speaking the citizens ol North Sevier favor a building program. The high school at Salina is sorely in need of a gymnasium. The school has been running for nearly twenty years, and the citizens, faculty and students feel that it is high time that something was being done to encourage athletics.

That Leland Bastian, Ernen Peterson, Heber Rees and Hicks Taylor, four young men aged between 17 and 18, escaped instant death last Sunday morning when a. northbound train hit the car in which they were n riding, is a miracle. As it was was rendered unconscious and The badly bruised and scratched. car, a Dodge touring, war demonishi ed and was made ready for the scrap J j heap. The young men were going north on State Street from Salima, and vere destined for the Bastian home, t short , distance east of the main raveled load. According to. statements made by both the railroad row and otheis who saw the accident when the railroad crossing was reached the boys barely escaped being hit by the train. Supposing that the car was headed north, instead of turning, the engine crew continued. Just at the moment that the signal was given by the trainmen to go ahead, the automobile turned at the point where the road leads to the Bastian home. Another crossing is maintained ovtpr the railroad about 400 feet from the crossing on the state toad, and just as the automobile struck the tracks and was nearly over, the engine died, leaving the car in the track of the train. The boys were unable to escape as the curtains of the auto were all closed and made immediate esBas-lia- i cape impossible. When the train hit the car the lat- ter was dragged for some 50 feet, ut fortunately the train was mov- ing slowly and when the cattle guard vas reached the auto was thrown from the track and was turned half way around, and landed on its side. None of the boys were pinnioned be- neath the wrecked auto, the injuries being received when the car was thrown from the railroad track. When the auto was headed north, according to reports, the on coming train gave the usual signal for the crossing at the state road. The boys in the car, however, declare they failed to hear the signal and narrow-- y escaped being run down at that mint. The tiain again gave a signal vhen the engine crew discovered that the car was headed for the side crossing. Had the engine not died, as the driver of the car said it did, it would have been able to beat the train at the point where the accident happened. The auto was thrown about fifty feet when the cattle guard was struck. Leone Humphrey, a witness to the eeident, huriied the boys to the .ilina hospital where a close was made by the attnd-- g physicians. Taylor was unconcerns Sunday night, but Monday he egaind sufficiently to he able to go o his home. It was feared at first Rees bad received internal ,hat All the boys, however, are progressing nicely. on IMPRESSIVE SERVICES Impressive funeral services for Thurman Shepherd, the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Shepherd, Jr., were held at Aurora last- Sunday afternoon, many from this city attending the last obsequies. Dewey Mason and President M. Laznby gave a brief address at the services. Special music was rendered by the choir and the floral offerings, which were profuse, made the funeral of the little boy most impressive. Thurman died as a result of an attack of pneumonia last Friday night. - MAKING FAST PROGRESS Harold Crandall, son of Mr. and Mrs. II. B. Crandall of this city, and who is attending the leading dental school at Los Angeles, is making a record for himself. In a recent examination, and in which more than 100 students contested, Harold led the crowd. with the highest percentage in studies and other requisites. Mr. Crandall, who spent ten days visiting with his son at Los Angeles, returned last Friday, and he reports conditions on the coast as being Miss Faun Madsen, who was call to Salina on account of the death of her father, left for Salt Lake Tuesday.
