I
found 3 newspaper clippings that I would like to share. They are in not very good shape and will be
hard to read.
The
first one is of dad being Santa Clause. The photo could have been taken
approximately 1962 and might have been in the Magna Times. There are several children with him and it
looks like they are winners of some kind of contest. When I found the newspaper
clipping it was wadded up and torn.
The
second photo could have also been in the Magna Times and I would guess the date
was approximately 1959 – 1962. The photo caption reads: “H.E. Shields, G. W.
Alldredge and James Coulson, left to right, continue to picket copper industry
operations Friday pending ratification of agreements reached between unions and
management. Work won’t resume until after union membership votes to accept
contract terms.
The
third article is about elections in 9 districts of Magna, Utah. It could have also been in the Magna Times
approximately 1963-1968. I can remember
my dad being involved in politics for a short time, but never understood what
he was involved in.
