Show Aii'ond Leamerado Day Celebration the townspeople In 1946, under the leadership of Wm. Bradficld, Pearl Harder, Rugh Finlinson and Fern Bigelow and others put on a large homecoming pany. A dinner and dance for all veterans snd their partners. It was a great success. It was held on Labor Day, 1946. In 1947, the Leamington Veterans decided to keep the celebration going. Each veteran donated S3. 00 toward the finances and a chairman for several committees was chosen. The first president of the Organization was George Evans. After holding the celebration several years, it was decided that it needed a name. Grant Overson donated S20.00 which was to be given to the person who could come up with the best name. Laura Nelson won the money when she name of submitted the "Leamarado. This year's celebration will be the 28th one, so it goes without saying that is has been a success. During World War II a number of the veterans families moved away from Leamington, and a number of the veterans themselves have moved, leaving just nine veterans left in town. To put on a celebration of this kind, h takes all the people in Leamington and they have always been willing to do what was needed. In the year 1950, we had Mr. and Mrs. Parley Elder of Oak City as the honored guests at Leamarado Day. They were the parents of Gn R. Oder who was kitted In action in Korea on July II. 1950 while serving with the Third Engineers Combat Battalion, U.S. Army. He enlisted in January, 1948, at the age of 1? years, and was in Japan for a year before going to Korea. Pvt. Glen R. Elder of Oak City was the first Utah boy to die in action In Korea. Norman Olson, ton of Fritz and Rose Olson, was born in Leamington and spent a good share of his life here. He was drafted out of Springville after his family had moved there. Norman was killed on Sept. 16, 1944. while serving with General Patton's Third Army in Germany, after being in the service less than sis monthi. The body of Norman Olson w as never brought home, but grave in the Leamington cemetery is decorated every year for him and full rites and honor accorded this spot by the American Legion Post and the Veterans of Foreign Wais. During World War II. with a national average of 15 of the U.S. towns population in the service Leamington had 24 pcrceru. Wallace Nielson's family had five boys in the service at the same time.

One of these factors, was the size of the community. Since the presentations were in ended to be a token of Britain's appreciation to the people of this country as a whole rather than particular regions or cities, and with a view to making the gesture known to as wide a section of the people as possible, it was felt that the ceremony should not take place in towns with a population of less than one thousand inhabitants. ...I sincerely hope that this explanation will remove any cause for disappointment the people of Learning-toand that they will feel that due honour and regard is being paid to their town.

Everyone quit work including the people at the quarries. The people gathered together; horns were blowing; flags were waving. There were noise makers of all kinds from tubs to sheep bells, resounding. A party was organized and a large supper was served with each family furnishing something. There was corn on the cob, roasted potatoes from the bonfire. Eveyone had all they could cat and were rejoicing. IT NEVER FAILS 5 Preliminary EScats A Main Event And Everything Goes Wipeout!
