A sudden storm overturned the boat, leaving four people clinging to the disabled craft, while eight foot waves drove over them. One of the waves tore Mike loose from his grip, and sucked him under the boat. All were weak from exposure to the cold water, and helpless to give him aid. Mr. Bawden n last saw his son floating, in the water, and drifting away from the boat. He started to go after him, but was restrained by his wife, who by now was experiencing hypother-mania- . Her body temperature was dropping rapidly, but even in her weakened condition, she had prescence of mind to know that both would be lost, if he left the boat. When passing fishermen picked them up, some twenty minutes latei, Betty Bawden was more dead than alive. She had no visible pulse; her blood She pressure had dropped to would have been dead in another fifteen minutes. Betty and Keith Bawden experienced a lot of pain in losing Mike. They both had such great hope for his future. The $1,000 donation money was to have been his college fund. Maybe we can help a lot of little Michaels in soccer, said Mr. Bawden quietly. Many people have elected to follow the Bawdens generous gesture. In lieu of flowers for Mike, the family suggested a donation to the U. Y S A. for a soccer field, to be built in Roy. $600 has come into the fund, and its still open. With the development of the 9th ST a- - Bawden parents contribute money to classmates. He loved animals, and always ow ned a cat or dog, until it was discovered that he was allergic to their hair. He was a big kid, and strong in athletics. He began playing soccer for Dan Murphy, whose North Park teams have drawn attention throughout Ogden Valley. Mike was a seven year old, when he began soccer, team. and played on His last years Vikings went undefeated in ten games, and had only one tie. This year, the same team became the Tornados of the class, and finished with a record. Mike was one of the four-beplayers on both teams. They called him Big Gun for his kicking power. He had a leg like a mule, mused Coach Murphy. Mike was always an outdoorsman. He loved to hunt and fish with his family. His Dad works for the Forest Service, and that gave father and son a common interest for fun and enjoyment. Residents of Roy never really got to know Mike Bawden. He was a young budding athlete with a great future just waiting to happen, and soccer was his first love. Through him both of his parents became interested in the game, and learned the fine arts of officiating, only because they saw such a need for referees. Both are now qualified soccer referees in the Utah Youth Soccer Association (U.Y.S.A.) and both are still active. It was a tragic day for Betty and Keith Bawden, when Mike died.

What happens when we get more kids involved, and-o- r we football, basketball or baseball, not to mention the minor sports? ANSWER: We are a democratic society, and will yield to the dictates of the people. If a majority favors one er another, we .are obligated sport but not . to go along with their wisjies, just on a local basis. It must be on a state basis Now let me pose a question Do we drop golf and pick up soccer7 How about Tennis, Gymand others? I nastics, strongly suspect that some of the less popular sports will be dropped, in the near future, in the interest of economy. That brings up another question, How can we justify picking up soccer, if we are now in the process of dropping other activities? QUESTION: Arent there other ways of economizing, without cutting out athletics? ANSWER: I hope so. Weber School District is striving to trim its budget. Seven school teachers retired last year and werent replaced. Our ad-- , ministrators are looking into other economy measures. We want soccer, but we dont feel the timing is now.
