The last minute touches (xi many floats were completed, and the parade was on to the exhilarating music of the Carbon High School Band, and a standing salute to Old Glory. To the average viewer it was near impossible to say which of the floats had won the prizes. All were glorious in color and design. All showing the genious and ingenuity of the hundreds of participants who spent so many hours planning, preparing and building the floats. Each float as it passed before the viewers seemed to receive equal admiration, and the oh's and ah's of the celebrants. Yet as President David O. McKay and his lovely wife Emma came into view the crowd were estatic in their enthusiasm and applause, far beyond the viewing of other floats. The love of this wonderful couple for people everywhere was being returned a thousand fold.

The need is obvious. There is a great variety of programs available even within a given branch of the service. And each of the different branches of service offer many programs with a wide variety of options. Roughly a third of the programs are not available after the age of eighteen and a half. At this age many young men stiU have only a very vague idea of what their obligations may be and what sort of programs are available to them. The result too often is that a square peg ends up in a round hole, or that a young man ends up serving in a capacity which is his second or third choice. This is unfortunate for the young man, but also for Uncle parking lot behind the school from 8 until 11 p.m. Music will be proved -ed by the Deseret Mining Company and admission will be $1 per person or $1.50 per couple.
