And as long as there's a celebration there witt be strawberries from one source or another large, red, juicy, and delectable strawberries prepared to delight the palates of all visitors to Pleasant Grove Strawberry Days, June 16-19. i-- Fintf Arts Center on tie BYU campus.

Widely Acclaimed Acclaimed as one of the most delightful musicals ever presented on Broadway, "Song of Nor- way" is storied around the life and music of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. A member of the Norwegian Embassy, Helge Groth, will travel to Provo Wednesday for the i re performance where he will present the "Maid of Norway" and her two attendants.

According to Ramona Bern-. hard, general director of -the Supreme Court today struck down Connecticut's 1879 anti- birth control law, which forbids use of contraceptives by any one, including married couples. The vote was 7 to 2, with Jus tice William O. Douglas speaking for the majority.

Douglas based5his reasoning on the principle 'jthat "a governmental purpose to control or prevent activities constitutional ly subject to state regulation may not be achieved by means which sweep unnecessarily broadly and thereby invade the area of protected freedom." The challenge -to the Connecticut law was made by state's" Planned Parenthood1 League. It stemmed from the conviction of Mrs. Estalle T. Griswold, 63, and Dr. Lee Buxton, 59, on charges ofviolating the law by operating 'a birth control clinic.

An attempt to challenge the law was made in 1961, but the Supreme Court refused to con sider the issue then because no arrests had been made.

show, "Song of Norway" should be one of the most enjoyable shows the Association has presented in recent years. "The story holds close to the facts in Grieg's life," said Mrs. Bernhard, "and is one reason it is so appealing, especially when interwoven with his beautiful music." Mr. and Mrs. John F.

Elake MRS. FRANCES S. WELLS Christian Scientists Hold Meet BOSTON, Mass. The Christian Science Board of Directors today urged its members to find the "areas of agreement" which exist with other denominations "rather than think of ourselves as entirely different or exclusive." From the church's earliest beginnings, said the directors, it has been deeply involved in "the search for the real source of unity." The message was presented before several thousand members at the annual meeting of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. Much In Common "On the basis of its spirituality Christian Science has much in common with other demonin-ations," the message noted.

'To every honest adherent of any God-centered faith sincerely working to uplift and unify the human race, we offer our fellowship and support," the directors declared. "Today we are confronted with one of history's deepest, most divisive social upheavals," the Directors continued. New President The annual election of a new church president by the directors was also announced at the meeting. Mrs. Frances S.

Wells, San took wer as presiding officer from the retiring president, Edward Froderman of Chicago, 111. Both of them also hold positions on the Board of Trustees of The Christian Science Publishing Society. Mrs. Wells, a graduate- of Briarcliff College, N. has been an active teacher and practitioner of Christian Science in San Antonio for several years.

In reports to the meeting by the managers of various church departments, it was disclosed that the number of Christian Science branch churches had reached the, 3,300 mark with re-, cent additions in Argentina, The Netherlands, New Zealand, and for the first time, in Guatemala and Korea. By PATRICIA SEELY PLEASANT GROVE -Come frost, drouth, hail, or high water, for the past 43 years "Sir Strawbetry" has been the outstanding feature (or sub and substance) of Pleasant Grove's; annual Strawberry Days celebration. According to Junius A. West, who was a member of the first Strawberry Days committee, the initial festival was held in 1922, possibly 1921. In June of 1923 Mr.

and Mrs. A. P. Warnick. were chairmen of the Strawberry Day parade, and it was she who first came up with the idea of having a Strawberry queen to reign over the festivities.

Originally, MrsMYarnick believes, the Strawberry Days celebration was conceived as a means for the strawberry farmers to sell some of their fruit. At that time many acres in the Pleasant Grove area were devoted to strawberry production. Mrs. Warnick remembers that cases of berries were donated by the farmers to help advertise the P.G. holiday.

Thousands of Utah County residents would come to the community to enjoy a free bowlful of strawberries and cream. She recalls that women who worked in the strawberry stands have, at times, stayed up all night to wash and clean the fruit so that it would be fresh and delicious for Strawberry Day. A life-long resident of Pleasant Grove, Mrs. Warnick recollects the year that it rained continuously during the three-day festivities. Her husband had to put straw on the floor of the booth so that the workers wouldn't have to slosh around in the mud.
