A girls team and a boys team flew to California this week to participate in the four-da- y tourney. The purpose of the tournament is not so much to crown a champion, but to expose soccer players from all over the USA to different styles of the game. Mixed-teagames will be played to acquaint the many players to various styles of soccer play. The boys and girls are scheduled for a free day at Disneyland as part of their tournament trip. The young athletes must pay only $23.00 each for the trip, and the tourney sponsor pays the rest. The youngsters will be housed with families of the Orange County soccer players. The interesting thing about the Pepsi Cup Tournament is that no champion will be crowned. The American Youth Soccer Organization planned the tournament just for fun and experience. League All Stars are issued uniforms for upcoming tournament. Row (I. to r.)

According to Arnold Bangerter, fisheries biologist with the DWR, over 150,000 three-inc- h brook trout were stocked by plane. Later in the summer, about 100 lakes will be stocked with more than 200,000 cutthroat fry. Bangerter says that the Uinta lakes r are stocked on a one- - to cycle. Frequency of stocking depends of a number of factors. The lakes with poor heavy fishing pressure, reproduction, or other factors, get stocked each year. Others, like lakes farther in the backcountry, get stocked every two to five years. Fishing is expected to be good this summer in the Uintas. The DWR has maps available for those driving or hiking into the regions many lakes. five-yea- handle the pitching chores for the Clearfield Little League are David Gardener, left, Jeff Parry and Phillip Peterson.

As in the past, this tourney guarantees a minimura'of atlpast four games to all teams entered and a maximum of fun apd excitement. Consolation tournaments and consolation-consolation tournaments will be held in classes that have enough entries. Last year, the team that finished second in the consolation Mens Class A Slow Pitch tournament played 12 games spread over a two week ' , period. ,y t A new Class B classification is being started this year. To be eligible, the team could not have played as a team in any Class A or Major tournament this year, must be composed of players that have not played in any State or Metro Championship tournaments either this year or last year and if the team played this year in an organized league not classified by the Commissioner as a Class B league, the team must have finished in the lower 67 .

Roster forms are available from the Commissioners office. Competition will be available in all classes in which we receive at least five entries. Entry deadline in 6 p.m. on August 23rd, no exceptions. The Utah State Amateur Softball Association reserves the right to accept entries or reject entries for any reasons it thinks may be in the best interest of the Utah State A. S. A. Beacuse of some problems created in the past, we have divided the Co-E- d Class in to two separate divisions; 18 and under and 19 and over. All games will be played with the three major rule changes in effect. In Fast Pitch classes the designated hitter rule will be used, and in both Fast Pitch and and Slow Pitch a player will be allowed to return to the game in the same batting order position once after being substituted for by another player, and the pause for pitchers will be used. All of these rules will be in effect Internationally on January 1, 1979. Entry fees are as follows; Adult Fast Pitch Classes $85. Adult Slow Pitch Classes $60. ' Youth Classes $50.

Nici, as her friends call her, joined ' the team at the request of two good friends, whose fathers happen to coach the Red Sox No. 2 team. Nici, Todd Wilson and Scott Jacobsen are neighbors and the best of friends Todd and Scott knew that she could play ball as well as boys her age because they often played sand-lo- t baseball, and she was good. They went to their father-coache- s and Nici was given the green light to play.
