Development committee holds meeting Board members of Tintic Development Corporation held their regular meeting this week, to further plans for the improvement of Eureka. The members were greatly encouraged by the support and collaboration given by Mr. Leonard Weitz, president of Chief Consolidated Mining Company, who visited Eureka recently from his headquarters in New York City. Presently, several opportunities are being studied and other authorities in the field, consulted. These individuals are more than willing to give a hand, since they realize that the residents of Eureka are trying to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. I w lost control of the car as it careened on the treacherous, undetected ice. The vehicle left the highway and traveled 75 feet down an embankment, rolled over on it's side and then rolled back up on it's wheels. When it came to rest, it was still leaning at quite a sharp angle, pressing Erma against the door, unable to get out of the car. LeRoy was able to open the door on the driver's side, with some difficulty, and pulled himself out of the car. He made his way up the embankment and waved down a haulage truck from the Trixie Mine. The driver, Charlie Larson, helped extricate Mrs. Gourley from the vehicle, and then brought both of them back to Eureka. Miraculously, the only injuries sustained were to Mrs. Gourley and they were superficial-- a bruised arm, other bruises and minor cuts. Damage to the automobile was slight. Later in the day, the Gourleys ixjrrowed their daughter and truck, and made the trip to Tooele they were trying to make when the accident occurred. son-in-law- 's ..Santa Claus will be on hand to greet the youngsters of Tintic District next Friday evening, December 15. at 6:30 p.m., when the annual Christmas Party will be held at the Tintic High School Auditorium.

Snowmobile enthusiasts should check in advance with local park areas to determine if registration is required for their vehicles and to learn of current snow, conditions, hazards and any special requirements. Because many of the designated snowmobile trails are in remote and otherwise inaccessible areas, park officials caution snowmobile operators not to travel alone, for safety purposes. In Yellowstone, oversnow machines may operate on unplowed roadways throughout the park. In Grand Teton, machines may operate on the unplowed roadways of the park, in the Potholes area and on the frozen surfaces of Jackson and Jenny Lakes, and west of the Snake River in the John D.
