Show Spotlighting UTAH Utah Goes to Harvard Dr. Chas. H. Tozier, head of the visual education department, Harvard University and party of Boston, Massachusetts, are heading head-ing into Utah's Monument Valley this week. Dr. Tozier's visit to Utah is significant in that Utah's scenic attractions, her geological wonders, her rive"rs, mountains and deserts strike a greater response re-sponse in the famed doctor's heart than other scenic attractions attrac-tions in the U. S. So impressed is this Harvard professor with what he found in Utah that he is returning to set up a permanent perma-nent visual education exhibit of Utah scenes at the well known eastern hall of learning. The party was met at Zions by David H. Mann of the Utah State Department De-partment of Publicity and Industrial In-dustrial Development, who gave Dr. Tozier valuable information and direction that will enable him to enlarge the scope of his efforts. Takes His Own Pictures Dr. Tozier, old enough to retire, yet full of enthusiasm and good health, finds great pleasure in taking his own pictures. Two retired millionaries, Alton B. At-wood, At-wood, Chelsia, Massachusetts, Frank M. Howard, Winchester, Massachusetts, their wives, and Dr. and Mrs. Tozier made up the party. They were so enthusiastic about the photogenic grandeur and majesty of Zion Canyon that they started work with the first daylight and were loath to stop shooting pictures when it ended. Their $3,000.00 worth of still motion mo-tion picture equipment is all personally per-sonally owned; they paid their own expenses and the group was as happy as boy scouts on a country hike. Students to Hear About Utah The goup's enthusiasm for Bryce, Zion, the Bridges and the Arches was of the type that ppre-dicts ppre-dicts more eastern visitors for Utah. They questioned Mr. Mann for two hours about Monument Valley; its roads, inhabitiants, how to reach it and what to see. Next winter, students in the Harvard Har-vard visual education classes will see and hear about Utah's scenic and geological wonders, thanks to Dr. Tozier. as can easily be imagined, this type of publicity is the kind that can't be purchased, pur-chased, yet is of the most valuable valu-able to be secured and there is no doubt but what the future flow of tourist traffic into Utah will be considerably stimulated by Dr. Tozier's lectures, his still picture exhibits and his motion picture demonstrations before Harvard classes. Utah on Rotariaa Cover A Bryce Canyon scene, a color photograph by Fred Bond, na-toinally na-toinally known color photographer photograph-er of Los Angeles, adorns the cover of the August edition of the "Rotarian." This magazine reaches every Rotarian in the country and the cover is good promotion for Utah. Mr. Bond has told the State Department of Publicity that he is coming to Utah this fall when the reds and yellows are in the mountain forests to seek photogenic aspens or quaking asps for magazine covers. After all, one Utah cover on a national magazine is more effective than 10,000 descriptive words. Pre-Salted Celery Out The Utah celery harvest started in earnest this week at American Fork where hundreds of cars of an early variety will be shipped to eastern markets in advance of celery yet to be harvested by other states. There is no argument argu-ment relative to the superiority of Utah celery, the fact is attested attest-ed by eastern buyers without quibbling. One American Fork celery farmer, whose farm is operated op-erated by share croppers, will realize the tidy profit of $12,-000.00 $12,-000.00 from 12 acres of celery without turning his hand; nice business, this celery raising! The industry in Utah is only in its infancy. No! Utah celery raisers are not interested in growing pre-salted celery on the state's saline wastes.

Ogden Writer Hits Esquire Keith Barrette, Ogden newspaperman news-paperman and writer has an ar tide in the September issue of Esquire titled "Gunsmith to A- 5 menca." His opening sentence is significant: "When you take s down that favorite gun of yours it isn't a Winchester, Remington' Stevens or Colt that you fondly finger, but a variety of Brown-ing." Brown-ing." The balance of the finely 5 written article tells of the accomplishments ac-complishments of the late John Browning, famous Ogden inventor inven-tor who actually was "Gunsmith To America." |
