Show V ' - MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE 17 Delta, Ut., Thurs., Mar. 31.1949 New Discovery Stirs Old Utah Mining District Looking northward at Mt. Superior at Alta, and mountains in foreground, where base metals are again being mined. A once active mining district may languish into a ghost town, but it never dies in the breast of man. There is always an who clings to the hope that it will relive its former days and there is always another young engineer who works out a new geological theory for the district. Alta, where thousands of skiiers go each winter to slide down its steep slopes, was Utah's first min-ing district and for years one of the most active. Some credit the area with a production record of' $37,000,000,virtually all of which found its ways into the early build-ing of Utah. During the early days Alta sup-ported a community of 2500 per-sons, and its main street supported four saloons. Alta bore all the ro-mance and lore of any early day mining camp. But, after the rich, near the surface deposits had been mined, Alta slipped. Its buildings disappeared and its railroad was dismantled. All that remained as a reminder of its glorious past was the scars of the mine dumps on its precipitous slopes. Then came skiing and Alta slopes and snows attracted the best in 'slick slide artists" in this rapid growing sport. It became a rec-reational area of world renown and new road were built into the district. Recently renewed interest has been taken in Alta's mining pos-sibilities. A new ore body has been discovered near the line of the famous old Cardiff and Columbus Rexall properties. From this ore body, twenty shipments of ore have already been made, ore of a grade reminicent of the boom days of Alta. The ore was found by the second generation of a Pioneer Alta min-ing family. Thew "knew" the ore was there and after driving about 10 feet of new tunnel, struck the pay dirt. It had been missed by just 10 feet, an ore body the type of which some work all their lives to find. Not only in Alta, but in other mining districts throughout Utah, more prospecting and development are needed. The incentive to take the risk in mining must be restored and this can be done by hanging up adequate reward for those who take this risk. Harold Pope, paint manager of, the Brooklawn creamery in Salt Lake City, and Leo M.' Merrill, general manager, were in Delta Monday to attend a meeting of dairy men that night. Mr. Pope was manager of the Delta plant some years ago.

All I f expect from Mr. Gordon besides a i young heir is about thirty gallons t of gas to go fishing. The 1948 fishing license is valid through April 15, according to Ar- - ' mond Carr, Chief Clerk of the Utah Fish and Game Department. The licenses are made good by la,w until this date, Carr said. This permits early spring anglers to keep their tickets for use on cat-fish and other fish until the new tickets are available. The Dept. spokesman also warned that the j enforcement officers are required by law to arrest anyone fishing : without the proper license. Those !' fishermen who have lost their lie-- ' enses during the winter may ob-tai- n duplicates only from the of- - fices of the State Fish and Game Dept., in person or by mail. Cost of the duplicates is 50 cents each. Field and Stream VERNON W. SHIELDS How in the heck am I going to write a "Field & Stream'" col- -' umn every week when at this time of year there isn't much to write about . Nobody is doing any hunt-ing or fishing, or at least they shouldn't be; the state legislature is through for this year with mess- - ing around with our fish and game laws; the deer are heading back to the hills; the pheasants or ducks are no problem; nobody's' killing game out of season or if' they have Mr. Garrard hasn't cau-- 1 ght up with them lately; our state fish hatcheries are full of fish, but 'they won't be planted for a while, so all in all, things are pretty much at a standstill as far as fish and game activity is concerned. I haven't even got anything to gripe about; however, I could tell you about a royal wedding that took place here on the Shields estate recently, but then if I did someone might accuse me of using this col-umn to get in some free advertis-ing; nevertheless, this wedding was probably one of the most out-standing events of the social sea-son and may be of some interest to dog owners in this locality. In a beautiful, evening ceremony performed in the Shields' Kennel on March 23, Queeny Gordon, a lovely little Brittany Spaniel own-ed by Mr. and Mrs. LeGrande Gor-don of this city, was claimed as the bride of Teddy Shields, a hand some Brittany Spaniel belonging to the Shields' estate. The bride was radiant in a brown and white fur coat. The bashful groom was im-maculate in his brown fur with white spots. The bride's sole at-tendant was her owner Mr. Gor-don, who was beautifully attired in a gray windbreaker and Levies with shoes to match. Vernon Shi-elds performed the duties of best man and was positively in a brown, leather jacket, khaki pants and leather hunting boots. Oliver Shields, authority on such matters, officiated and also performed the ceremony. Queeny is of royal Fren-ch blood and is a member of the American Field Dog's sorority. Ted-dy, the bridegroom who has been very prominent in hunting circles in Tooele County, is also a French aristocrat and is a member of the American Kennel Club Fraternity. After a short honeymoon in and around the Little Mountain, the couple will make their .home and raise their family here in Tooele. Anyone interested in obtaining lit-tle Brittany Spaniels may contact fr. Gordon at the Conoco Service station on South Main St. This is North Tract Max Thornton, Salt Lake City, and Mrs. Myrl Garrett, Lehi, are visiting their mother, Mrs. Thorn-ton. She and her daughter May will return to Salt Lake with them for a visit. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Gray, for-mer North Tract residents, now at Great Falls, Montana, and Mr. and Mrs. Jack Gray and family, visited in church Sunday. They ' are with their dauhter, Mrs. Lee McAllister, in Delta. Clair Anderson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Anderson, was in Suther-land Sunday, and talked in church telling of his work in the mission field, from which he returned re-cently. The Bee Hive girls held a dance in Sutherland ward hall Monday evening. Mrs. Sarah Nielson, county home demonstration agent, gave a dem-onstration at Relief Society Tues-day, on beauty treatment for fur-niture, and how to oil and care for sewing machines. Mrs. Dee Sanford is convalescing in Salt Lake following a goiter operation. She was released from the hospital Monday. Among Salt Lake visitors this week were Mr. and Mrs. Gene Walker, to see Mrs. Walker's fath-er, M. O. Warnick, there in the veterans hospital, Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Hill, there on bussiness, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Foote, and--, daughter, Marjorie Needham. The Jolly Stitchers held their annual banquet for their husbands Monday evening in the Woodrow hall. Special guests were Mr. and Mrs. Ferrel Walker, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Adams and father, Mr. Chuik-shan- Mr. and Mrs. Grant Bishop, Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Bunker. Mr. Walker was master of ceremonies for the program, which included two numbers by the Sutherland ladies chorus, two readings by Mrs. Adams, and numbers on the Marimba by Mrs. Bunker. A deli-cious supper was served, and dan-cing followed ,to music from the juke box. Mrs. Clarissa Keast, who has been visiting in Delta three weeks with her daughter, Mrs. A. L. Kim-be- r" returned Sunday to her home in Long Beach, Cal. Mrs. Waiora Wallace, who has been visiting her daughter, Mrs. Lillie Gibson ,in Chino, Cal., re-turned home this week. On her way to Cal.
