Show On 11 December 1932, it was decided to ask the Summit Stake to join in a baseball league to help avoid the Sunday playing. The two stake presidencies met and agreed to call a committee of three from each stake to organize the league. By March 1933 the league was organized and ready to play. Arrangements were made to play the games on Wednesday afternoon.11 A very successful series of games was conducted which resulted in much good in both Stakes by way of entertainment and sociability among the membership of the two stakes. In 1934, The Morgan County Newstepoaed: The Mormit league will come to a very successful close this year next Saturday, Sept. 8th, with Echo the winning team in the South Half playing Devil's Slide, the winning team in the North Half, for the championship honors, at the Morgan County Fair.

After meeting with the Summit and South Summit stakes in early 1935 the Morgan Stake presidency reported that they had decided to continue the baseball league between the counties and include a junior league also.13 In 1937 another matter of concern developed, and that was the showing of movies on Sunday. It wasn't until 16 January 1938 that further discussion on the matter took place. President Randall explained that the difficulty "had arisen since a commercial picture show had started up in Morgan and were trying to close up the picture show operated by the stake." After considerable discussion it was decided that the stake would show movies two nights a week and ask all the wards to support them.14 The stake along with the help of the Morgan Ward had purchased as early as 1932 a Western Electric motion picture sound machine. The first movie in the stake was shown 1 September 1932. Ward Boundary Changes The stake presidency discussed with the high council on 23 November 1924 the matter of organizing a ward in Stoddard. It was decided that if the people in the area wanted award, and upon approval of the First Presidency, one would be organized. Enterprise would be asked to join the new ward 120 |
