Show 4 taford Indians THE points. The next time the Indians got the ball they fought hard but had to settle for a 37 yard field goal by Steven Horowitz. The slow starting Buckeyes then got the ball and returned the kickoff 35 yards. On the next play they gained 37 yards on a Rex Kern, the Ohio State quarterback, then ground out 23 yards to set up their first touchdown by the big fullback John Brockington to make the score 10 to 7. The Buckeye defense held and forced the Indians to punt. Kern kept it rolling with a 32 yard keeper. He kept the ball on the ground with Brockington and Hayden carrying. This set Brockington for his 2nd touchdown of the game. The score at half time was 0 Buckeyes. As the third started the Indians got the ball, mixing his plays beautifully they drove to the 31 where the drive ended and Horowitz got a 48 yard field goal to break a Rose Bowl record of 44 set by George Fleming in 1961. The following kickoff saw the Buckeyes fired up as Brockington ran 42 yards before the deep safety pulled him down. It put them in position for a field goal. Fred Schram kicked one from 32 yards to make the score 3 Buckeyes. That was the situation before Plunkett brought his Indians to a wild 4th quarter which delighted the crowd of 103,889. The Indians started a 80 yard drive in which Plunkett hit for 5 passes, including a 35 yard gamble pass to Moore which paid off. With the ball lying on the 3 yard line, Jackie Brown stumbled in around the right end for the score, 20-Indians. On the following kickoff Kern, trying desperately to get back into the ball game, threw a pass which was intercepted by diving Jack Schultz. Plunkett then went to work hitting Randy Vataha for a 10 yard touchdown for Stan7. fords final score.

The Lions came into the game after a region win over Spanish Fork a week earlier. The Vikings were coming off a loss to a rough Orem team and so the stage was set. The game opened with a total of 2 points scored in the first minute. Gary Weight, a great 6 ft. 3 in. junior center picked up a free throw and then Clark Hansen a 5 ft. lOin senior guard got a free throw for P.G. and it was with 7:00 in the first quarter. Pleasant Grove took a lead seconds later on a basket by Craig Davis, a 6ft, 1 in. senior forward. This was to the the only time during the entire game that P.G. was ahead. Terry Carter the big 6 ft. 3 in forward for the Lions tied up the game with a bucket and was fouled while getting the shot off. Carter converted from the foul line and Payson took a 3 lead. The Lions now started taking control of the game as Weight dipping and diving under the basket picked up a foul shot and a field goal while Clark Hansen picked up another free throw and Stan Crump an agile 5 ft. 9 in guard picked up a goal for P.G. making the score 7Payson.

HORSEMANS CORNER By Charla Zeeman Last week we mentioned visiting with Thane Telford, President of the Nebo Cutter and Chariot Association. Thane is a comparative newcomer to the Payson area, so we thought you may be interested in knowing a little more about him. Thane was born and raised in Randolph, Utah. His father had horses and Thane picked up quite a bit of knowledge about them while he was a child. One of his outstanding childhood memories is often recalled by Thane and his father. It seems he was a curious lad and was, like most children, full of questions. Mr. Telford had some colts around the place. Thane watched one of them for a while and then asked, Dad, is this going to be a work horse or a ridin horse? Mr. Telford .answered with parental patience, I dont know, son. Well, then, came Thanes reply, if its just nothin, can I have it? F rom then on Thane became more deeply involved with his horses. He has ridden both bareback and saddle broncs in the rodeos besides training his own horses. While he was still in Randolph, Thane and a friend of his put their horses together and began racing inthe Cutter Association. This would be the seventh year for Thane in the cutter races, but he decided that serving as president of the local association would take up most of his time. Thane has been to the finals in Pocatello three times. This is an honor in itself. In 1968, he reached the supreme level for all cutter racemen he won in his division in Pocatello. In all these years of racing, he has never had an accident. The closest he has come to a crack-u- p was when his tugs came loose and the team pulled the chariot by just the reins. In telling about this, he shrugged his shoulders and stated there was really no problem. Why did this man and his family come to Payson? Thane has been interested in flat racing the past three years. He was attracted by the track in Payson. His family is used to a small town and Payson appeals to them. Horses are a family affair at the Telfords. One of the prized gifts this Christmas came in the form of a ceramic colt with identical markings to one of the colts the family has pastured. Thanes son attached a ribbon with a tag bearing the colts name, Sunday Sailor, to the neck of his gift to his father. Thane has served as a director of the Wyuta Cutter and Chariot Association and as director and president of the Nebo Cutter Association. He and Dennis Tanner appeared on Channel 11 in an interview concerning the cutter races last March. But he doesnt plan to rest on his laurels. Thane is waiting for an opening in the Racing Association here so he can join that organization. He would like to find a place to keep his hqpse permanently, and is interested in not only training his own animals but also' training for others. We enjoyed our visit with Thane and 14-1- Anglers await Cisco run rter ended. The second quarter saw the Lions extend their lead. Parke Hansen scored as the quarter opened and P.G. was only 2 points behind. Mark Etherington scored for Pay-sand then Steve Whitehead of the Vikings 4. made the score The Lions started a raUy now that P.G. 14-- 4 in the minutes that followed. Gary Weights moves under the basket drew fouls and goals and Joe Quigley scored on a pretty move. Seconds later Curtis Burton scored from outside and then Mark Etherington got hot and scored 6 points on outside shooting. The score now stood Payson 30 and P.G. 18. Steve Whitehead scored 2 free throws and then Gary Weight scored 4 more points on his shooting underneath. Sophomore Wayne Allred picked up 2 points and Parke Hansen got 2 more just before the half ended and the score at halftime was Payson 34 and P.G. 24. The third quarter saw Terry Carter pick up a quick bucket followed by twobas-ke- ts by Parke Hansen for P.G. Curtis Burton then threw in another long shot and Gary Weight hit 3 straight free throws to make the score 8. on Several thousand anglers in Utah and Idaho are eagerly awaiting reports on the annual cisco spawning run at Bear Lake on the Utah-Idaborder. These hardy fishermen brave cold weather and icy waters to dip net the Bonneville cisco as they appear along the east shore of the lake. The cisco spawning run usually occurs during the last two weeks of January. The earliest starting date in the past 10 years was January 9; the latest starting date during the same period was January The spawning run usually lasts 11 19. to 12 days. Angling regulations for cisco are simple. A fishing or combination license is required and the daily bag limit is 50 fish. Dip nets may not have an opening greater than 18 inches in diameter. Anglers going after cisco should be prepared for cold weather. Waders or hip boots and warm clothing should be worn, and both the anglers and the nets should have long handles on. ho Game birds dont need feed After each heavy snowfall, the Division of Fish and Game receives many inquiries from persons concerned about the welfare of upland game birds. Pheasants and quail are the game birds for which concern is most often expressed. These birds have a high annual reproductive rate and also a high annual mortality. The number of pheasants or quail in a population is primarily dependent upon reproductive success during the spring nesting season, and reproductive success is usually higher when parent populations are lower. This tends to compensate for unusually high lossess from severe winter weather or other causes. Feeding of wildlife in winter is one of the oldest and most discussed problems in game management. Most conservation agencies agree that winter feeding is neither biologically sound nor economically feasible. Most game birds are able to fend for themselves during the winter if they have suitable habitat. Winter losses of game birds are always greatest in poor or marginal habitat. Winter feeding, even in good habitat, causes concentrations of birds which exposes them to predators and facilitates the spread of disease. The best evidence that winter feeding is unnecessary is the fact that the pheasant population in Utah has survived for several decades without an artificial feeding program. In localized areas, populations have diminished over the years, but this is attributable to deterioration of the 16-1- out-sco- 41-2- Parke Hansen, the leading scorer for P.G. in the game converted 2 more free throws and then Brad Olson who had been high point man for the Lions against Spanish Fork picked up his 3rd and 4th points on free throws. Roger Carson then hit a long outside shot for the Vikings and Curtis Burton countered with a long shot. The third quarter was that type of seesaw. Robert West hit 2 buckets for P.G. and then Gary Weight and Terry Carter picked up scores for Payson. Crump was fouled but missed 2 free throws as the quarter ended and the score at the end of the third quarter stood Payson 50 and Pleasant Grove 37. The 13 point lead for the Lions just proved to be too much for P.G, in the fourth quarter. Gary Weight continued his display of great moves and Mark Etherington and Terry Carter played fine games. The Lions also got a fine performance by reserve Jim Durrant who came up with 4 points. The Vikings did rally but just didnt have enough and the final score ended Payson 66 and Pleasant Grove 56. The Lions play Springville next on January 8 at Springville.
