The officers, all re-elected, are William Carson of Weiser, president; Herbert A. Tiegs of Nampa, vice president, and Harold Henigson of Nyssa, secretary-treasurer. President Carson and Everett Taylor of Ontario, a director, were chosen to attend a meeting at Salt Lake City January 9, when a beet labor hearing will be held. T esti mony on the scale to be paid for beet labor in 1950 will be taken by the sugar section of the department of agriculture. At the Tuesday meeting the di rectors expressed concern regarding the possible effect of the high con sumption estimates on the price of sugar and in turn the ultimate price * of beets. Whereas the secretary of agriculture placed the estimate at 7,500,000 tons, the growers wanted the figure set at 7,200,000 tons. The growers feel that the estimate will depress the sugar market. Fourteen men attended the an- ual meeting. Nyssa Fighters Defeat Adrian J The Nyssa high school boxing team defeated Adrian in nine ex citing bouts in the Nyssa gymnasium Wednesday night.
