Show Nothing Sacred? Flag Stolen From LDS Church VAL VERDA - Who would steal an American flag, especially espe-cially from the flagpole of an LDS Church? A FLAG is missing from the Val Verda 7th-9th Ward Chapel, 100 E. 3400 S., Val Verda. The flag had flown earlier ear-lier over the Nation's Captiol in Washington D.C. and was flying under a bright spotlight when apparently stolen. Bishop Norman Angus said the flag was last seen during the day of Sept. 19 and urged all ward members to be alert for the flag. It was also sug gested that if others -- churches, chur-ches, schools or private individuals indi-viduals - have had their flags stolen to report them to the local police. "IT'S TOO bad if this thing is done as a prank," said one observer. "The American flag should mean more to all of us than to be stolen or removed for any reason from the lighted pole from which it flies." Anyone having knowledge of the flag missing from the Val Verda Ward should contact Bishop Angus at his home, 295-8187, or the Val Verda 7th Ward, 292-2161. |
