Show CALIFORXIANS SAY UTAH IS A FRIENDLY STATE During 11 days in April, a Utah tourist information booth was sponsored by the Utah Department De-partment of Publicity at the Souhern California Sportsmen and Vacation show held at Los Angeles. During the show, more than 350,000 people passed through the gates. Thousands passed by the Utah booth, admired its attractive at-tractive and colorful picure display dis-play and received an invitation to vacation in Utah during the coming season. More than 20,000 pieces of Utah publicity literature were picked up and carried away by Californians who visited the booth. Hundreds expressed pleasure in seeing Utah represented repre-sented along with other states, and Utah road maps were in high demand. The most impressive tning tor PID officials in attendance was the fact that without one exception excep-tion hundreds of Californians voluntarily expressed their opinion op-inion that "Utah Is a Friendly State." . . "We've vacationed m Utah and we find people friendly," said many. .. . "We've hunted and nshed in Utah " declared many California Califor-nia sportsmen, "and we sure- like Utah people. They are friendly and accommodating, and we are certainly coming back this year." Surprising enough was the B fact that hundreds of Califor- nians bragged about the good fishing in Utah. As for good hunting, that was taken for granted. Many expressed a worry that the Utah deer herds might become depleted if toO' many does were-killed by hunters. |
