Deer Count Made On Winter Range Cooperative deer counts and deer winter range condition inspections of deer management units from Oak City south to Cove Fort were recently completed, according ot officials here. It was found that the deer win-tered in good condition, generally, although utilization on most low range units has been relatively heavy. Results obtained from the counts indicated no great change in numbers. An interesting side-light noted was the large number of bucks seen still carrying one or both antlers, which is some-what unusual for this time of the year. The counts were carried on by Lloyd Davies and Eb Stapley, of the state fish and game depart-ment; Howard Bennett, of the bur-eau of land management; J. W. Lancaster and T. C. Haycock of the Forest service; Adria Ahlstrom Clark Huff and Warren Ahlstrom, of the U. S. fish and wildlife ser-vice; Judd Davies and Glen Stew-art, representing the county wild-life federations, and other inter- - ested sportsmen on various oc-casions. , Counts, made over a period of years, furnish a trend indication. This information, coupled with observed browse inspection plus more detailed browse utilization data furnished by browse study plot measurements, helps to deter mine the deer manageemnt pro-gram. Additional valuable inform-ation is obtained from computed kill data furnished by the state fish and game department and from sex ratio determination be-fore and after the hunt.

Concert Program By Famed U Band Vas Outstanding One of the finest musical pro-grams to be given in Delta was that by the University of Utah concert band on Monday night. Palomar was well filled and lis-teners will long remember the su-perb performance. The Concert Band presented the tour concert in celebration of the th year of the Univer-sity of Utah. Their tour opened Monday and ends Friday, and they will have played in ten southern Utah towns. Eighty-fiv- e band members make the trip, including their conductor, Ronald D. Greg-ory, pianist, Geraldine Schilling, and Robert Millard, calrinetist. Ten numbers .were on the pro-gram, all executed beautifully. Their printed program gave pro-gram notes that gave the story of each number and composer, two of whom were of Utah. The clarinet soloist, Mr. Millard, was exceptional, as was the piano sol-oist, Miss Schilling. Applause at the end of the program kept up until the band played Sousa's Stars and Stripes Forever, always a favorite. This was so brilliantly done that two more encores were demanded. Funds for Hospital The Delta program was spon-sored by local wonmen's clubs as a benefit for the hospital fund. At this time all reports are not in from those who sold tickets, but it seems there will be $250 or better cleared. Band members were the guests in local homes for their stay, for dinner, overnight, and for breakfast. ' The visitors all voiced their en-joyment of their stay in Delta, and appreciated the hospitality. They said the audience Monday night was unusually large and respon-sive, they had really expected a smaller crowd. They should be in Palomar for one of the basketball games is the reply. Are Grateful The sponsors of the program are very grateful to the cooperation they received in making the con-cert such a success. They thank the band for including Delta on their tour, for which they received no fees, so that all profits from ticket sales went to the hospital fund. And they are very grateful to all those families who helped so greatly by being hosts to the band members. And they thank Prin. Glen Seeg-mille- r, who again proved invalu-able for the assistance he gave in making arrangements on seating, tickets, signs and other help. He had a group of FFA boys at Palo-mar to help put up chairs and again the next day to clear them away. Also they thank all those who sold tickets, and all those who bought them, for their ef-forts have realized a good-size- d sum toward a new hospital.

Mrs. Ivie was injur-ed late in Feb. when she fell from a bicycle. She and her son were each rid-ing bicycles on the highway, when ioose gravel upset Mrs. Ivie. She put her right leg down to stop her fall and fell upon it. The leg was broken in three places, one in the foot and two above, mid-way between ankle and knee. It was necessary to use pins to align the broken bones. Her injuries are now healing, but her leg will be in a cast for some time yet.
