passed by the board contains the proviso that the contract is subject to termination on 30 days' notice by either party The contract carries a stipend of $4000 for half time on a 4-quarter basis The special meeting was called at request of the medical faculty so they might express their opinions of the policies of the medical school its administration and requirements for accreditation Representatives pt the press were excluded from the meeting Regents said Dr Cal lister addressed the meeting briefly pointing out that approximately 7514 of the recommendations for accreditation made by representatives of the American Medical Assn and the American Assn of Medical Colleges have been completed He then left the meeting corn-then ting that "since they're going to- talk about me I'd better not stay" Medical faculty members were asked to report on progress made on carrying out accreditation recommendations and their opinions of the present medical school administration All but I reportedly expressed confidence in Dr Callister's administration Dr Clay Freudenberger professor of anatomy and associate dean declared "We have always had a good school and we still have a good school" The regents expressed belief in possibilities of a great medical school and pointed out the school already has received recognition and support of government agencies in research directly

incident Reporters were refused information in military police office and photographers were barred Highway patrolmen brought the men in 2 cars and military police awaited them at the entrance ft Enm Floyd Walter Roach Missing merchant marine ott-41 V' "7 -( I '4: 4 r- 4 An opinion holding that Utah restaurants are not compelled to serve persons they do not wish to serve was handed down Tuesday by the state supreme court At the same time the court held that if a Salt Lake City ordinance pertaining to keeping restaurants open is to be construed as a civil rights measure it is invalid The city has authority to license businesses and to enforce police sanitary and similar regulations but it is entirely without authority to legislate in regard to civil rights the court ruled in a unanimous opinion written by Chief Justice James Wolfe The ordinance in question provides that doors of restaurants shall remain unlocked while the keeper or any employe is inside and "during such time no orderly person shall be refused admission thereto" The case on which the opinion was written involved a suit brought by Pearl Nance guardian at litem for Don Nance a minor against Mayflower Tavern Inc 154 Main for damages because of the restaurant's refusal to serve the boy The restaurant filed a demurrer which the district court sustained dismissing the case The plaintiff then appealed In taking the appeal the plaintiff cited the ordinance to support a contention that a restaurant must serve any "orderly person" "Neither the statute nor the constitution authorized municipalities to legislate in regard to civil rights" the high court held "If the statute which authorizes cities to tax license and regulate restaurants were to be construed as empowering the city to pass a civil rights bill regarding restaurants the section would also have to be construed so as to permit civil rights legislation by cities in regard to all businesses and occupations enumerated in the same section It is clear that the legislature never contemplated that cities could have such powers Even the most liberal civil rights statutes do not purport to embrace many of the types of businesses enumerated in this section If the ordinance upon which the plaintiff relies was designed as a civil rights measure to compel restaurants to serve all orderly persons it is invalid as being beyond the delegated power of the city enacting it" The court said a state law making it a misdemeanor for an innkeeper to refuse to receive and entertain a guest without "just cause or excuse" does not apply to restaurants It pointed out that "the duties and liabilities placed upon inns and innkeepers at the common law was not applied to restaurants" "It follows" the court concluded "that the defendant (Mayflower) has breached no duty toward the plaintiff (Nance) under either the common law or by statute or by valid city ordinance" ff 4 Mr Larson said Plans for moving the office 1 rom Provo to the

disturb its certification of Teamsters Chauffeurs and Helpers of America local 222 as collective bargaining agent for employes of tha company On March 2 the 4 employes among others designated this union as their collective bargaining agent and 6 days later a certification was issued by the board On April 14 the salesmen resigned from the union thus reducing the union's majority and the company then instituted action questioning the validity of the certification The board held that the certification would stand ''until evidence that conditions prevailing on March 8 1944 have changed substantially and that said changed conditions are working against employe interests and are depriving them of the benefits as set forth and provided by the 'Utah labor relations act" The order written by Chairman Eldred Hoyle pointed out that the basis of collective bargaining the right to which is guaranteed by state law would be weakened if employes after designating a union to represent them for a year could suddenly and "without a substantial reason therefor" withdraw their designation Repairs Cut North I Alan Wants Ban on Dogs Street Lights A meeting of thl state board of
