Yankton Plans Return To Standard Time Use YANKTON (AP)-The Yankton Chamber of Commerce board of directors recommended to the Yankton community at its noon luncheon meeting Thursday that effective at 12:01 a.m. Monday, organizations, institutions and business firms return to Central Standard Time. A poll of the entire Chamber of Commerce membership during the past week had shown 138. member firms in favor of returning to Central Standard Time and 115 in favor of continuing on Daylight Savings Time, The 253 ballots counted were a good percentage of the 330 sent out Laddie Cimpl, Chamber president said that the board felt that the experience May 10 when the Yankton commu- nity went on Daylight Savings, Time had been adequate for business people to determine their wishes on the matter. The chief disadvantage found with Daylight Savings Time is that Yankton is the only city in the retail trade area which it services operating on DST which creates considerable confusion for the retail rural customer, Cimpl said, and according to the change of time has not been as advantageous as hoped for.

Cimple emphasized that appreciates the fine cooperation of Yankton interests in giving the time change a fair trial, and indicated that perhaps another year the entire state will go on Daylight Savings Time, including Yankton area..
