Volumn 31 Number 20 Sugar HouseUtah Thursday ,May 14, 1959 - S. EL Jaycees Sponsor Hi-Scho- ol Economy Run The run was not a race, Mr. Monson said. Rather it was a test of driving and auto performance. Mileage performance of the driver and car decided the win-ners. Drivers were penalized for infractions of traffic regulations. Every car in the contest had to pass a safety inspection. The run served to teach the students that the combination of regular maintenance work, safety inspections, and good driving habits result in the economical operation of an automobile, Mr. Monson said. The course that was selected was measured, certified, and posted by the AAA, Committee chairman for the event included: Jay Jensen, ob-server; Tim Whittaker, luncheon; and'Cal Ashton, scoring. lr "i t ' 1 si-- . r n I EC0,0HY RU1 : u Li 5?H:D Teen-a- ge drivers at Granite, Olympus, and Highland High were busy last week tuning up their family cars and checking their personal driving habits in pre-paration for the Mobil Gas safe-ty economy run for last Saturday, May' 9th.

Senate in a Hole Many Americans these troubled days look to Congress to solve all their pesky problems. Perhaps these Americans had better look to see how Congress is getting along with its own problems. When the Senate planned a new office building for itself, it omit-ted to include a subway, running to the Capitol. Later, it appro-priated $3 million to build this private railway line. It set up a couple of commissions for Capitol Hill projects, and divided the res-ponsibility between them. Today , the new subway is near completion. Imagine the footsore Senator' horror when they dis-covered that their subway doesn't go anywhere. It ends in a hole in the ground 300 feet from the Capitol, and across the street from it. And so there will have to be a new appropriation of $4 million to run that railroad on into the Capitol basement to save 100 Sen-ators a few steps everyday. The blame is put upon the commissions and the divided authority. v Of course , multiple comm-issions and divided authority are nothing new in our government, and this kind of result is nothing new either. 1 S. El ICiwanis Rifle Club Awards For the past several years, the Kiwanis Club of Sugar House has sponsored and directed a Junior Program of the National Rifle Association at the South High School rifle range under the super-vision of the Military Dept. of the Junior ROTC. This program has proven an invaluable aid in the instilling of necessary habits in our youn-gsters, such as sportsmanship, fair play, manliness, self-cont- rol and cooperation so essential to success in life. Kiwanis Club members active in this project include: Ralph Flitton, Chairman of the Rifle Club, Chuck Kelly, ah official NRA instructor, Doug Langton, sec-tary, Dr. Max Davis, Dr. Emery Frank, and LaMont Hunt. "JIMMY JUHLIN TROPHY" . On March 6, 1957, the Kiwanis Club of Sugar House established what is known as a "Jimmy Juhlin Trophy" inhonor of Jimmie Juhlin, son of Lois and Cliff Juhlin. Jimmie was a member of the Junior Rifle Club and an outstand-ing member. He passed away on February 26, 1957 from an acci-dent received while playing basket-ball. The trophy is furnished by the club and each year a member of the Rifle Club receives a min-atu- re replica of the large trophy and the winners name is inscribed on the large trophy. Any boy who wins the trophy three times dur-ing the term of his membership in the Rifle Club will gain permanent possession of the large trophy. An unusual circumstance de-veloped this year as there was a tie right down the line between two boys. Stephen E. Butler, 12, 2832 S. 20th E., and Craig Da-vis, 12, 1701 Fieldcrest Lane, it was announced Tuesday, were the joint recipients.
