Show V FOURTEENTH YEAR SAUNA, UTAH, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1931 Aurora Man Meets Death In Accident J. Bulkley, a prominent and service station operator at Aurora, was instantly killed about 11 oclock Tuesday night, and Jesse Scovell, an operator at the Western Clay & Metals company at Aurora, was dangerously injured in an auto accident. The bodies of the men were discovered about 5 oclock Wednesday morning near the state highway, just below Sigurd, by Royal Buchanan and a company of Gunnison. Buchanan was on his way to Monroe for a truck load of apples, and in passing along the highway observed a car standing alongside the road with the lights burning. Seeing the car had been wrecked, he investigated and found Scovell in the car with shoes and stockings off and talking incoherently. Unable to get any knowledge ' Buchanan as to what then made a search of the surroundings when he made a discovery of ' the prostrate form of Bulkley. At' who . this time Leo Camp of Richfield, was headed north, was hailed and Scovell was loaded in the Camp auto and rushed to Richfield for treatment. Sheriff yem Fairbanks 'was 'noti. fied and he immediately went to the scene and on examination he found Bulkley dead. The left part of the .face and forehead of Bulkley was crushed, and it is believed .that death was instant, having contracted with the frame of the car .when the fatal ' plunge was made. Scovells condition, according to re- ports received from Richfield yesterday, was regarded as being dangerous. He had partially regained his . senses, but was unable to give an account of the accident, which laid low his riding companion. Bulkley and Scovell, it 'is reported, were driving along the highway at about 11 oclock Tuesday night. Track marks of the car wheels indicated ' that it was going at a good rate of speed. The car traveled along the shoulder of the highway and then cut sharply across, hitting the cement head of a culvert, turning over three times and then settling back on the four wheels. The auto, a new Pontiac, owned by Scovell, was almost totally wrecked. The first arrivals at the scene of the fatal accident stated that both doors of the car were open and that Scovell was inside and had suffered a great deal from exposure during the cold night. Injuries suffered by Scovell, it is believed, consist of a fractured ' right shoulder and broken ribs, and possibly internal injuries. Mr. Bulkley, who met the sudden death, was 30 years of age, and had been a resident of Aurora for some four or five years, where he conducted a service station. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mariam Watts Bulkley, four small children, Bert, Una, Ralph and Max Bulkley of Aurora, his mother, Mrs. N. C. Sorenson, Richfield, and a brother and sister, Dewey Bulkley and Mrs. Eugene Hansen, of Delta.' L. well-know- n . had-happen- BIRD FAMILY ATTENDS FUNERAL FOR RELATIVE Mr. and Mrs. D. M.

The regular primary was set for Monday evening, and anticipating a big assembly, the meeting was held in the recreation hall of the Second ward chapel. More than 175 turned out Monday, and when the preliminary business had been finished, nominations for mayor were called. Heber C. Williams, Reed Thorpe and Bishop G. M. Burr were nominated for the office of mayor. On the first ballot. Burr was eliminated, having received only 15 votes, as against 40 for Williams and 39 for Thorpe. On the second ballot, Williams beat Thorpe, winning by two votes, the finals being Williams, 48, Thorpe, 46. A revote was called for, and the count resulted the same as in the second. It was at this point that Jas. C. Jensen got the floor and he declared the actions of the primary would be invalidated by law, if it went over. Jensen declared the day a legal holiday, it being Columbus day. A motion was then made and carried that the primary be postponed until Tuesday evening. On reconvening Tuesday evening, the chapel was filled and standing room was at a prenjium. Old stormy petrel was again in evidence. The presence of many who had taken part in the republican primary a week before aroused suspicion, and before balloting began, the house waa divida ed for the purpose of avoiding dual performance of the previous primary, when republicans, democrats and socialists all took part. Chairman Frank Herbert, who presided at both the Monday and Tuesday primaries, before starting 'to nominate and ballot, asked that in fairness to all, that all republicans or democrats who had participated in the selection of candidates at the republican primary, refrain from taking part at the democratic primary, and he pointed out the law governing this act. Jas. Jensen, a candidate for mayor two years ago, took exceptions to the request of the chairman and put over a motion which would ' allow all to cast votes, irrespective of party affiliation, or whether they had voted at either the republican or democratic primaries. Business then had proceeded until after Williams been named the choice of the primary for mayor on the democratic ticket, when the question of legality of tho less. primary was sprung, and the primary One thing that was especially noadjourned. ticeable this season with the WolverBefore nominations were started Durines was their reserve strength.

Dern Appeals to Local Chapter Governor Geo. H. Dern, sensing the fact that the depression is and will create further want in Utah, is urging that the annual American Red Cross membership drive be further stimulated by activities of the local chapters, and has forwarded the following communication addressed to Mayor Conrad E. Peterson. Governor Dern is backing the annual drive throughout Uath, and in the following appeal he urges all local chapters to plan an intensive drive: Utah has several times been the beneficiary of the humanitarian work of the American Red Cross, and consequently we are under a special obligation to maintain a complete and efficient Red Cross organization throughout our state. off-tack- le Park Popularity Increases Yearly well-know- No community knows when it may be visited by a disaster too severe to be handled by local means. The American Red Cross is chartered by Congress to meet such emergencies wherever they may occur in the United States. Its trained representatives promptly respond to every legitimate call from a stricken community, and provide those necessities which will restore the victims to a basis. The Red Cross also helps alleviate disease through its nursing men, promotes activities, assists in rehabilitating disabled and develops a spirit safety through first aid and life saving services, of service and friendship between our youth and those of foreign nations through the Junior Red Cross. . ' therefore, invite your attention to the activities of this great national organization and to its possibilities to serve your community in time of need. I solicit your active cooperation in building up and strengthening its local chapters and branch organizations throughout the State of Utah, in order that it may function quickly and efficiently when called upon to do so. In this time of economic depression, unemployment and drought, the aid of the Red Cross may be required more frequently than in normal times, and therefore it is particularly important that an active Red Cross Chapter be established in every community. I, The Red Cross depends upon the annual Roll Call of members to maintain its program. This membership appeal which is made each year between Armistice Day and Thanksgiving Day merits your heartiest support. Del-m- ar half-hou- Lu-ci- Ruth-Peters- on. le n |
