It is the considered belief of this newspaper that adoption of resolutions by the Price city council and the Price Chamber of Commerce to make Carbon College a branch of the University of Utah is premature, and may not be the desire of the majority of the people of this area. We do not doubt the sincerity of civic leaders who initiated the idea in recent weeks, presuming, that everybody should be in favor. At first glance, the proposition seems reasonable and advantageous. Yet there are several arguments against it that we should stop and consider before turning this fine educational institution over to the University of Utah, without sufficient time to study and discuss the implications of such action. Main basis for haste has been the fact that Carbon high school will soon be separated from the Carbon College, and now that the state legislature is in session, time seems to be the essence. Proponents of the move have known this since a bond, issue was passed over two years ago to build a new high school and consummate separation of the two schools. Why the crash program all of a sudden? Carbon College was fought for and established twenty citizens in Carbon county. Only years ago by a few years ago the state legislature voted to eliminate it entirely, yet the people of Utah defeated this by referendum, presented and carried through, also by people in Carbon county and supported overwhelmingly all over civic-mind- ed civic-mind- Move Said to Facilitate Progress if Commission Votes Go-Ahe- ad Commerce Group ushcs Action )n Carbon College At a regular meeting of the board of governors of the Price Chamber of Commerce held Wednesday, a resolution in favor of making Carbon College a branch of the University of Utah was passed by unanimous vote. The new president of the Chamber, Boyd Marsing, reported that the board has extensively debated and investigated the Carbon College question. It is the unanimous opinion of the board of governors, President Marsing stated, that the advantages of Carbon College becoming a branch of the University far outweigh the disadvantages and that legislative action should be taken this session to bring this about. The Board also considered and adopted the annual budget and At a special meeting held recently, the Carbon county commissioners instructed the county clerk to secure application forms with which the county can apply for a permit from the Federal Communications Commission for the possible installation of a UIIF (ultra high frequency) translator television distribution system. The establishment of this system, it was pointed out, will be dependent upon the costs of installation and maintenance, figures which the county commissioners have yet to receive. According to Steve Diamanti, chairman of he board of county commissioners, these cost figures will returned this autumn to lead the orchestra in another Pops concert.

Representatives of the county road department, the county surveyor, Utah Power and Light engineers and an engineer from the TV survey company were in the field Saturday and Sunday pinpointing possible locations for secondary translator towers to serve those areas which could not receive a signal directly from the main towers which would be located on a mountain point above Wattis, Reports from these individuals will be awaited by the commission before any othjr action is taken. The filing for an application, Mr. Diamanti stated, was being done because it takes some time to clear such requests and it was thought advisable to have this matter cleared in the event such & system is adopted. A complaint seeking a restraining order against the Carbon county commissioners to prevent them from going ahead with any television system was filed with the district court in August but no further action in this matter has come forth. Thus the commissioners, who have not been summond to show cause why such an order should be granted, have proceeded with their investigations and in the 1959 budget mill levy set up a for recreation purposes which, it is assumed, was included with the thought in mind of installing a 8 well-know- National Forest Issues Warning About Trespassing - al -- Mesa-LaS- Price ed al three-quart- Sets county-supporte- d top-flig- o- ar ht d rs sys- Royal Arch Masons Tony Kontgas, high priest; Lew Commandery James L.
