LOGAN, UTAH, MONDAY, JUNE 2, 1958 49. NO. 130 and Dr. Melvin C. Cannon. Mr. Morris was recently made a member of the High Council of the new Utah State University stake. Dr. Cannon has been granted a sabbatical leave from the USU and will study during the next school year at Cornell, Ithaca, N. Y. President W. Loyal Hall, in the absence of any member of the general authorities, presided at all of the conference sessions. The Sunday morning session attracted 1,203 persons or 27 per cent of the stake population, while about 600 or 13 per cent were present in the afternoon session. Stake and ward welfare workers were instructed at a special session Saturday evening by President Cecil Kenner, head of the Cache Regional Welfare committee, and Dewey Petersen, coordinator of the regional committee. The ward and stake priesthood leaders were reminded and instructed of their duties by President Asa L. Beecher in the Saturday evening priesthood session. The congregational singing at the two Sunday sessions was directed by Mrs. N. W. Christiansen, with Prof. S. E. Clark at the organ and Mrs. Don W. at the piano. P r e 8 t o n Nibley, assistant Church Historian, recalling that the conference was held on the 157th birthday anniversary of Brigham Young, paid tribute to the great pioneer leader. Brigham Youngs mother died when he was 14 years of age, said Elder Nibley, Since it was impossible for his father to take care of the eleven children, they were farmed out to different families in the neighborhood. Although Brigham Young had but eleven days of school, he early learned the important lesson to spend less money than he made. Dr. W. W. Richards, director of the Logan LDS Institute, emphasized the fact that the Institute this year graduated the largest class in its history. He Van-derbe- Logan Wins National Safety Award stressed the importance of religious teaching along with the acat demic studies provided by the USU. Those who are anxious to travel lifes highway in safety, said President A. George Raymond of the Logan Temple, should adhere to the doctrines of the Church. He urged church members not only to be regular Temple attendants but also to study the Gospel principles and to be active in genealogical research. Bishop Edwin Haroldsen, formerly of the River Heights ward, told of attending a medical convention recently at which a visiting doctor spoke on the relationship of cigarette smoking to cancer. As the speaker continued the attending doctors gradually put aside their cigarettes. Bishop Haroldsen reminded his hearers that more than a hundred years ago the Prophet Joseph Smith had told the world of the evil influences of tobacco. Dance Fest Draws Praise By JENNIE CHRISTENSEN Perhaps the largest, most elaborate dance festival ever presented in Logan delighted hundreds of onlookers Saturday evening at the annual Division 4 MIA dance extravaganza held in the USU Stadium. It was a colorful production g from the ceremony to the grand finale, with the 3,000 dancers exhibiting skillful dancand exceptional ing technique sense of timing. The theme, Say It With Music, was carried out effectively, with the entire script recorded by Preston and Logan flag-raisin- quartettes. Star Valley, Wyoming brought the most dancers and also travelled the greatest distance to participate in the 1958 presentation. Their 250 dancers stage number Boulevard of Love, was one of the outstanding numbers of the evening. Impressive stage numbers were also presented by the newly created University Stake, entitled "Land of Beauty and The Dummy Dance. Party-pin- k dance dresses with full, whirling skirts were as eyecatching as the pink pom poms carried by the 864 girls, dancing against a background of deep green grass and the deep blue of the evening skies. In the final pattern, an exhibition waltz the Gay Paree girls showed real finesse in their star formation, making oblong flower petals in each of the four corners of the stadium. Mr and Mrs. Albert Packer, district dance supervisors, who were general chairmen of the festival, express appreciation to Utah State University for allowing them to use the whole facilities of sound systems and lighting effects to help make the festival outstanding. Special guests at the evenings entertainment were Virginia and Bud McDonald of Salt Lake Logan City today received a Certificate of Achievement for its traffic record in 1957, being ranked by the National Safety Council. This is the highest rating a city can earn for highway safety. Chief of Police Eli Drakulich was advised that of the 1255 American cities competing for safety council awards, only 78 recorded the full year without a traffic death. Matter of fact, Logan went more than three years without a fatality within city limits. The State of Utah won honors for its program of traffic safety education in public schools.

The deputies voted 322 sup- to 231 to allow De Gaulle to run France for six months without parlia- mentary interefernce. But the Assembly completely rewrote the bill to limit sharply the areas in which he could rule by decree. Earlier, it had quickly passed, 337 to 199, a bill extending the governments emergency powers in Algeria powers that had been given routinely to a succession of French cabinets. A third bill to permit changes to be made in the constitution by the people rather than by the Assembly was still up for consideration. And it could be the stumbling block to De Gaulle's success. The general has Insisted that he receive approval for all three measures before he acts to solve the crisis that almost provoked civil war. "These bills remain an absolutely essential previous condition on setting up a government, a spokesman for De Gaulle said. "It is not until after all three have been adopted by Parliament that De Gaulle will complete his cabinet and will define the functions of the ministers and secretaries of state he has named. The spokesman added that De Gaulle will not leave for Algeria until Parliament has adopted all three bills. The implication was clear that De Gaulle wanted all or nothing in his fight to have the Assembly knuckle under to him at this time.
