West Kearns Students Await Flight Most of the 5th grade Coombs Mr. in students class at West Kearns are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Oct. 3rd. This will be a red letter day in the lives of many. Whats the occasion? Their first airplane ride. As a cumulative activity to a unit of study about airplanes, Mr. Coombs has arranged with Frontier Airlines for a trip around the Salt Lake Valley in a DC3. This is a passenger plane which will carry 24 persons plus the and stewardess. crew; pilot, The class has been talking about what makes an airplane fly and how it is controlled.

SILVER WINGS two-engi- ne co-pil- ot Kearns Lions Club Meets The Kearns Lions Club held a business meeting Monday evening at 7:30 p.m. in the basement of the Medical Center. Topics of the evenings discussion were to urge all residents of Kearns to register and vote. Following along this theme the Lions y watched the televised debate to enable members to form opinions of the candidates. A report that was prepared on Sight Conservation by Dr. T. O. Chelpas, O.D., chairman of the Kearns Lions sight conservation committee, was also given During the month of October, the Kearns Lions will strive to increase their membership, according to Bert Gaillard, president of the club. He said, I feel a small club cand do small projects pnd a large club can do large projects. Kearns needs a large Lions Club to help accomplish the large projects Kearns needs.

My stance was right, my grip was right, I addressed the ball right, I kept my head down but such a slice you never saw. An unfortunate motorist happened to be driving towards me at the time and consequently lost a headlight. Not the big headlight, you understand, but the small parking light that isnt much bigger than the golf ball itself. This was a remarkable feat Ill have you know. When you take in consideration the speed of the car, the trajectory of the ball and the timing, its a thousand to one that anyone could put out a small parking light of a car. But I did it. And I wasnt penalized a stroke either. The car happened to be owned by the University of Utah so I argued that it was in reality a part of the golf course. I won the argument but I still took a ten on a par four. The rest of the game was just as bad and the only consolation was that I heard a few good golf stories which Id like to pass on to you now. It seems that a golf pro taught a gorilla how to play golf. After a few years of teaching him how to stand, hold the club, address the ball, swing, follow thru and so forth, he was finally ready to let him play against competition. He talked Sma Snead into playing with him and the arrangements were made. On the day of the game, an immense crowd had gathered to see which was the better golfer, Sam Snead or the gorilla. Sam Snead teed up and blasted into the ball. He drove the ball straight down the fairway, two hundred and fifty yards. The owner let his gorilla out of his cage and handed him a Number One wood. The gorilla, showing exceptional form, drove the ball a remarkable four hundred and thirtv five yards down the fairway. The gallery watched in amazement as it landed one inch from the cup. Snead walked up to his ball and with a beautiful shot put the ball about a half an inch from the cup. But even with this he would still be shooting three to the gorillas two for the hole. With the gorillas ball only one inch from the cup, it was a foregone conclusion that he would put it in the cup, but in tournament play there are no "gimmies. The gorilla approached the hole and took his stance, putter in hand. He measured carefully, took his time and wham, he hit the ball another four hundred and thirty five yards. The other story I heard concerns the overly avid golfer. Every Saturday and Sunday he played golf and nothing, but nothing, could keep him from his game. As he was putting on the ninth green, a funeral procession went by and our golfer doffed his chapeau and stood in reverence as it drove by. Later in the club house, his partner remarked how surprised he was to see him voluntarily interrupt his putting for a funeral. To which our friend replied, Its the least I could do. Next Tuesday we would have been married twenty years.

To The Citizens Of Kearns We still have an obligation amounting to $675.00 for paper, supplies and printing of committee reports during the study phase of the Kearns Community Development Program. In May of this year we had a door drive for funds to clear off this debt. We know there are still some collections somewhere in the community that have not, as yet, been turned in, perhaps because the collectors do not know where to turn them in. Any funds collected or any donations may be turned in to the following: Farrol Lambert, 4976 So. 4460 West, Town Council chairman; Noel Payne, 5567 So. 4270 W, C.D. chairman of district structure, and Mrs. Sybil Barton, 4083 W. 5415 g So., chairman. g Other projects are now being planned to take care of this debt. We ask your support in this obligation. fund-raisin- fund-raisin- Mrs. Eddie Madrigal and clown Vincent Keith admire just two of the dolls to be used in the doll booth at St. Francis Fall Festival to be held two big nights Sept 30th and Oct. 1st.
