Black, first bishop of Deseret, gathered at Des-eret Saturday and Sunday for the Black family reunion. Family members from all points in Utah attended, with others coming from Idaho, Nevada, Wy-oming and California. Over 200 members registered for the Satur-day meeting, and around 400 for the Sunday program. This year's reunion was under the direction of the family organ-ization officers, Golden H. Black, chairman, June W. Black, vice chairman and Marion Black, secre-tary. A program Saturday afternoon drew the family together, and at the dance that night, in the Des-eret open air hall, everyone pres-ent was a member of the Black family. On Sunday a musical program was given in the forenoon with family histories of the pioneer hus-bands and wives. Dinner was ser-ved each day, by Eldon Jensen, of the Gem Cafe. Sunday after-noon cold watermelons were ser-ved to all. Officers chosen for the family reunion in 1949 are Dean Black, Hinckley, chairman; Arland Styler, Oasis, vice chairman; and Mrs. Lu-cille Sampson, secretary and treas-urer. A suggestion was made at the family meeting to make a change in the meeting place for the re-union. But this was vetoed, as it was the consensus of opinion that more pleasure was derived by each generation in returning to Deseret, where the family roots were spread. Junior League Playoff to Start On August 23 An 8 team playoof for the Jun-ior Leaguers has been scheduled to start next week, August 25, to determine which team is going to have charge of the, as yet to 'be named, trophy award. This de-cision was reached by a majority of the managers contacted. It was ' also felt that the trophy should be won at least twice before any team should have it permanentlv. Here is the playoff bracket with the first games of the series shown, and approximate dates for all games. Games start at 4:30 p. m. Wednesday, August 25 Oak City at Lynndyl Hinckley at Deseret Sutherland at Abraham Delta 2nd at Delta 3rd Winners from the first two brackets will meet Friday, Aug-ust 27, for their play off, as will the winners from the last two .brackets. That same day the los-ing teams from the first two brack ets will play, as will the losers from the last two brackets. That narrows the field to two winning teams, who will play for the championship Wednesday, Sep-tember 1st. And the Consolation game is also to be played Sept. 1, with the two high teams from the losing side of the original brackets. It is hoped that all games can be worked out so that, as many ball fields as possible can be used to an advantage. That is, each team as far as possible, will have one home game. In any case, after the first play off, it is importnat that the scores be sent in to Mer- - lin Christensen or Merritt Floyd, so that the next game schedule can be arranged. Candidates Visit Delta, Oak City Two candidates for office were in Delta and Oak City over the weekend. One was Asael Lyman who is running for Congress in Idaho this year on the Democratic ticket. He was born here in Delta, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Willis Ly-man. The other man was James E. Faust, who is running for the state legislature in Salt Lake county on the Democratic ticket. He is also campaign manager for Herbert Smart for attorney gener-al. He also was born in Delta, a son of Mr. and Mrs. George Faust. They were accompanied by Geo. A. Faust and Mrs. Faust and all of them attended the Finlinson reunion in Oak creek canyon. Last Softball Games Thursday The last games of the season will be played Thursday, when Ferrell's will play Sutherland for the championship and possession of the cup for the following year. To gain permanent possession of the trophy a team has to win two years straight. Delmart will play D. Stevens for third and fourth places at 8 p. m., with the championship game foll-owing. All managers or players who would like to carry this league in-to basketball this winter, get in touch with Merlin Christensen or Dan Davis by Thursday. Scholarship Goes To FFA Leader Joe Barney received one of the Sears Roebuck Foundation schol-arships in the amount of $100. The scholarship was awarded on his achievements in FFA work, and leadreship in school and commun-ity. He served as secretary of the FFA chapter in 1946-194- and as president in 1947- - 1948.

He has also been active in the Delta Second ward, having served as secretary of the YMMIA the past two years, and has taken part in several dramas. He plans on attending the BAC and will leave to register on the football squad the first of Sep-tember. Joe is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Virt S. Barney of Delta. Odd Fellows Enjoy Outing About 100 members of the Odd Fellows and Rebakahs held their annual outing in Oak Creek can-yon Sunday. Sports, a program and a picnic dinner formed the enter-tainment. Among the visitors were Merl Stewart, past grand master, and Mr. Neardon, grand herald, from Sandy, and Miss Edith Smith. Salt Lake City, national secretary to the Rebak- - ahs. Establishes Home And Practice Dr. and Mrs. Kendall A. Dutson are moving to Delta this week and will make their home here. Dr. Dutson is opening offices here Sat-urday in the Crest Theatre building as an optometrist. Dr. Dutson is a graduate of the University of Southern California, where he was affiliated with Ome-ga Delta fraternity. He is a mem-ber of the L. D. S. church and also a member of a Millard county fam-ily, as he is a son of Clinton Dut-son, and a grandson of Eddie Q. Dutson of Oak Citk. He has been practicing in Nephi before moving to Delta. He has been engaged this week installing modern office and laboratory And Dr. Dutson wishes to remind the public that his prac-tice, as an optometrist, is limited to the eye, only. iMcCornick I really dont have much time to loll these days, what with the se-cond crop hay and the harvesting of the grain coming all at once. Of course, if we're all as lucky as Evan Johnson (rumor has it he got 90 bushels of grain to the acre on his farm) we won't mind the rush. Nevertheless, this needs must be short. The rumble and roar caused by the Oak City boys rolling in with their tractors, rakes, balers, and combines which they brought over last week to do their fall stint, had us all thinking we were in for another electric storm like the one we had recently. I understand there were some parts of the re-gion had hail, but as far as I can see we had no hail and practically no damage. The prosperous Niels Clarkes are back after a very gratifying miss-ion in Denmark. From the looks of a new baler, a caterpillar and other various pieces of equipment Niels is going to take to the farm in a big way. Nettie is going to make her home out here with him and this person has firsthand in-formation to the effect that Niels is one guy in that thousand you spoke about, who thinks it is a good idea. Anyway Nettie we think you're what this place needs more of. The oldtimers here have spent a lifetime trying to think up a scheme to make a million dollars off from grasshoppers. Now when we have just about given up hope the Chronicle comes out with a plan wherein all you have to do is trap the pesky creatures. Well; until next week, here's to the grasshopper millionaires.
