The other morning, Gordon was stopped at the sign at 2nd West and 1500 South in Bountiful, when he spotted a small white kitten In the middle of the busy street.

The bus had an extra passenger the rest of the way to our side of the vallev wdth passengers cat sitting. When the bus came to the end of the run, Gordon had the white kitten on his hands.

In reviewing the recent history of Sears Sunday openings in the two cities, Johnson noted that the stoies first opened for business on Sun- days about a year ago. Later, the Utah Legislature passed a Sunday closing law (the Common Day of Rest Act) and Sears voluntarily' closed again on Sundays, even before the law required it, to do so. A lower court then ruled the act unconstitutional, buf Sears remained closed on Sundays awaiting a review of the legislation by tiie Utah' State Supreme Court: Johnson observed that because of delays in the preparation of legal briefs to the Utah Supreme Court, the review of the act has been held up and many retailers have decided to remain open on Sundays. In view cf these circumstances, Sears officials have agairt reviewed the subject of Sunday store openings and evaluated evidence of customer preferences for Sunday shopping, he said.
