Glad to know they made it back safely. I went to Fillmore yesterday and got my sister, Zola Lambright, from the hospital. Am so glad to have! her home again. Hope she'll be better than new in a week or so. Saturday was a real bad day for The Millard County Chronicle Published Erery Thursday at Delta, Utah By CHRONICLE PUBLISHING COMPANY R.

Ganc)danc) They just couldn't" find the handle on the a couple of years then take a look at Juab. But the. point Juab can be fairly successful in throwing, what about the future and rugged uphill battles facing, the Rabbits? Richfield is the closing league tussle for the Rabbits.

And you can toss out that 34-0 licking by Millard. The Richfield laddies just weren't putting out. Like everyone else they were impressed 'by the Fillmore reputation. Somehow Delta doesn't draw the same reaction from Richfield. They'll be fighting on their home field and will be that much tougher.

So, Delta better be prepared or they'll have to share the coveted title with Millard; Nobody wants that. If Delta tops Richfield tomorrow the school and' town can really They will be Region 9 champs and ready to take on Cedar City's Redmen -the semi-finals for the state -championship here. But let's worry, about Richfield first. The. varsity, had a natural let r-t.

"That's the president of our local going to all this trouble to boost our morale, no doubt." By Howard M. Greenwood "Put a basketball coach in charge and look what kind of score you get," chuckled Delta football coach Bob Horlacher upon his return from scouting the Richfield-Millard fracas at Fillmore. He was referring to the amazing 68-31 score between the Juab Wasps and the winning Delta gridders at Rabbit-town last Friday. After Delta settled into a comfortable lead in the first quarter, Horlacher believed it prudent of him to check on his squad's opposition for tomorrows argument at Richfield. The coach arrived in time to witness the Golden Eagles administering the coupde-grace to hapless Richfield 34-0.

After Horlacher departed, casaba mentor Allred took over. As the score mounted, Allred began putting in the reserves and finally many of the junior varsity. No use going into all those touchdowns. They were plentiful. All I saw was guys going in all directions.

Whatta' track meet. There were several disturbing things in this latest victory by the There was a large crowd out to the farewell of Elder Paul Lovell Sunday evening. A fine program was given. Those attending from out of town were his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.

Clark Bishop, Oasis, Mr. and Mrs. George Ipson and baby Ann, Mr. Ivan Ipson, Salt Lake City; Mr. and Mrs.

Carlos Bishop and six children, of Cedar City; Mr. and Mrs. Bradshaw and daughter Nadine, of Cedar City; Mr. and Mrs. Ray Lovell and Mrs.

Retta Peterson, of Oak City; Mrs. Vera Bishop, Hinckley; Mr. and Mrs. Clede Lovell of Salt Lake, and Mr. and Mrs.

Deon Gillen, Oasis. After the meeting all the family and friends enjoyed a visit at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Lovell. Mr.

and Mrs. Terry Hart had her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Pope, of Bountiful, Utah, visiting them over the weekend. T1t.

Kate Deuel. I always feel depressed after a member of our family passes away. She was a wonderful person. We as a family will miss her. Those attending the funeral from Delta were Mr.

and Mrs. Earl Willden and son Dean, Mrs. Evva Wilkins, Mr. and Mrs. Don Wilkins, Mr.

and Mrs. Al Willden and son Carl, Mrs. Richard Hare and Mrs. Neil Forster. It snowed all day long, but got home safely.

Dad, Wilford McClellan, went to Payson and visited his sister. He's having a great time, but he is going back to his home in Buckeye, Wednesday. Freda Dimmick visited Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hare over the weekend.

Our boys did another great job beating Juab. Best of luck, boys. hard-hitting underclassmen for inspiration in the coming games. Delta's future looks promising with players like Baker, Bennett, Talbot, Walker, Eppich, and the rest in the bullpen. They looked mighty good except for a few mental lapses due to inexperience.

The talent and desire is there. Delta, give it all you've got tomorrow. Your school, friends and admirers are looking to you for victory. Show Richfield that you came to play football and bring home the title. Rabbits.

The sophomore-laden Nephites could have really moved too, if their re-, ceivers hadn't left the glue at home. Their slinger had his boys zeroed in fine. He was bouncing the ball off helmets, shoulder pads, chests. Mostly his efforts were confounded by team mates dropitis. The Hinckley Precinct Republican Committee announces its candidates for office to be filled Nov.

7,1961 IB Oak City News MAE H. SHIPLEY v. LETS Rumors in the area concerning the school building needs and the proposed plans to meet those needs, are flying thick and fast. Rumors begin because of the lack of factual information. In this instance, we feel that the District Superintendent is amiss.

i4. To find the solution to a problem concerning school building needs takes long careful planning. Such planning should include looking at all sides of the question. Taxpayers are certainly one side of the question. "Taxpayers have a right to know all answers under consideration as the possible solution to the problem.

They, also1, have a right in helping to formulate the final plans. Elected and appointed officials are answerable to the electorate. We have just seen a copy of the survey findings of the Millard District school needs and the proposed recommendations to fulfill those needs. This copy is dated Sept. 1961.

A pertinent question is: "Why has the public not been informed of these survey findings and proposed recommendations?" The Millard County Chronicle would have been happy to publish these findings and recommendations. We feel that.it is our duty and OUR privilege to help inform the taxpayers on such an important matter as this. All of a sudden, we need answers to many questions. Uppermost are two. What do we want our children taught and how do we want this accomplished? De we want to know the answers to these two questions first and then build and remodel, OR do we want new buildings and remodeling programs and fit our children into what is told us that we need and therefore we should want? We need to decide just how important Delta Jr.

High and Delta High School is to the whole area. We need to decide if a child's first six years in school are more important than the last six. Or are they of equal importance. We feel that they are of equal importance. Therefore, we think that an overall program that includes a comprehensive study of our students' needs throughout their complete school years is not only desirable but necessary.

This overall program should be formulated with an eye to the future. Not only because of a probable population increase but, also, because of the changing educational picture as a whole. To quote from the survey findings and recommendations: "to receive and accept a product which is short of what is demanded cannot be a good bargain no matter how low the cost." What better way to say, "if we want cake, let's not accept a crumb." Wherever the answer lies, let's UNITE. ington. Mr.
