Consider The Lilies:
They Saved Utah Twice
SALT LAKE CITY. (/P)—Twice
have the people of Utah been
saved from starvation by the state
flower, the abundant sego lily—
once in legend, once in fact.
In 1848, a year after the Mor
mons entered the Salt Lake val
ley, their crops had not matured
and their provisions had been ex
hausted. The settlement survived
principally by outing lily bulbs.
In another instance, a Ute In
dian legend would have it, the
survivors of a great battle were
saved from famine by lilies which
miraculously sprang up on the
bloody field.
Teacher—And what do two
ducks and a cow remind you of?
Little boy—Quackers and milk.

Development Of
Oil, Gas Resources
Liberalized
WASHINGTON, UP) — Liberal
ized regulations governing the ex
ploration and development of oil
and gas resources on federal pub
lic lands were announced today by
undersecretary of the interior Os
car L. Chapman.
The new regulations are based
on amendments to the mineral
leasing act passed by the last
Congress.
Overall, they set new standards
for acreage holdings, rates of
rental and royalty, and terms of
leasing public lands for all de
velopment.
They were described by Chap
man as marking “in a real sense
. . the beginning of a new era in
oil and gas development in the
west in which the government and
both large and small operators
in the industry can work in closer
cooperation and with greater in
centive than before in the produc
tion of an adequate supply of this
vital national asset."
He said they would be put into
immediate effect "in order that
the benefits which they afford
may be available to the industry
at the earliest possible moment.”

Eskimo Family
To Tour Slates
ANCHORAGE — Following the'
season south this week for their
first trip beyond Nome, are Mar- j
tha, Toby and Herbie Anumgazuk,
Ezkimo family from Wales, Alas
ka. Wales is a native village just
below Point Barrow, and neither
Toby and Martha nor their par
ents before them have come so
far south as Anchorage before.
Accompanied by 15-months-old
Herbie, the Anumgazuks left on a
Northwest Airlines plane for Seat
tle last Sunday. At the southern
city they transferred to another
plane which is to carry them to
Baltimore, Md., their ultimate
destination.
The family is making the trip
Outside under the auspices ol the
Explorer’s club which plans an
18-month tour for them. The pair
will lecture and conduct demon
strations of Eskimo craftwork.
The trip already has given the
Anumgazuks their first plane ride
and their first glimpse of a large
city, for Anchorage is far bigger
than any settlement they have
ever seen before. They spent a
week sightseeing along the streets
while waiting for favorable flying
weather.
Martha wears a knee-iengtn
1 parka of gingham lined w'ith
1 squirrel fur and she carries young
Herbert on her back in the hood
1 of the garment. Toby, her hus
oand, dresses more conventionally
in a khaki Filson suit and blue
ski cap. The baby is wrapped in a
parka of rabbit skin.
The family has been looking
j forward with eagerness to their
1 first trip Outside, but the week’s
delay in Anchorage made Martha,
4 l
who is expecting a second child
in December, a little homesick for
Wales.
