RESTAURANT MAN
HAS PRAISE FOR ZION
Salt Lake Is Prosperous, he Says;
Los Angeles Boom Due to
Loyalty.

l.. A. Mehse. member of the firm OF
Sparey & Mehse, which operates lunch
rooms In Salt Lake and Los Angeles, re-
turned to salt Lake yesterday after be-
Ing in Los Angeles since last November.
Mr. Mehse Will be here abolut six weeks
attending to business in connection with
his local restaurant.
Business conditions In Salt Lake and
Los Angeles are about as prosperous as
any in the country" said Mr.. Mehse
Both towns are showing rapid growth,
l simply cannot keep track OF the growth
In Los Angeles even while I am living
there,
1.-The boom there is due, In large
measure. to the loyalty of the residents
TO their town. I never saw it equaled
anywhere. They are always boosting Los
Angeles, and the value of 1T is apparent
in the enormous growth OF the city"
Mr. Mehse said that a short time ago
there was rumor that a savings bank
there was getting weak. and this caused
a run on the institution. When the de-
positors began demanding their money
the bank announced that II had gold
enough on hand to pay every depositor.
To prove this the officials placed about
half a million dollars in gold on a table
In the bank where the dissatisfied deposI-
tors could see It. The result was the
restoration of confidence and the sudden
termina ton OF the run.

WAS COACH OF BOTH
UTAH AND MICHIGAN
Lieutenant Wallace, Who Taught Rifle
Teams Of Both States, Com
ments on Results.

Utah g rife team, which stands
twenty-second of all the rife teams in
the United States. according to the
scores made recently at Camp Perry,
o., and sixth of tho teams in the class
rating, and which took first place
in class c, is but one point ahead OF
the Michigan team. A peculiar coin
cidence in regard to the standing of
the two teams is that Lieutenant w.
Utah, coached both teams.
Lieutenant Wallace returned to Salt
Lake last Saturday from Camp Perry,
and in speaking Of the performances
of the teams last night, he said: 1.-THE
shooting Of both teams was remark
able considering the competition, and
especially does the Michigan team de.
serve much credit, because under the
new Michigan ruling veterans or
others who had previously participated
in the national tournaments were
barred from taking part this year.
The team was entirely made up of re
cruits.'
Michigan is Lieutenant Wallace S
home state. and this year he was
especially requested by army officials
there to take charge Of the coaching
and training OF the rifle team He
has been coaching the team in Michi-
gan for the greatest part Of the sum
mer, but previous to leaving Utah he
assisted Major Williams in coaching
the Utah team, The closeness with
which the two teams finished for ma
tional shooting honors bespeaks Lieu
tenant Wallace's uniformity in coach
ing.
AS the final scores Indicate. the
Utah team had slight edge over it's
Michigan opponents hui the perform
ances of both teams were worthy Of
comment. Both teams last year were
in class C; both are now in class B
