Show RECREATION I CENTER ACTIVITIES by Delmar Schick, Mike Zdunich 5 The second half got underway in all three leagues with the favorites fa-vorites coming through with expected ex-pected victories except Spuds Gang who fell to defeat at the hands of the mighty Hawks from , Copperton. , The Senior league went along as expected with the first half j winners, the Cougars taking the j feature game from the Pirates. j Phil Martinez and Mike Gonzales Gonzal-es helped the Cougars come from behind to take the Pirates down to defeat in a well-played ball game. The Pirates had the lead for the first three quarters and finally had to give way to the ! scrappy Cougars. Tommy Lovat and Norman Bianchi led the Pirates Pir-ates in scoring with Joe Costello sweeping both boards for the losers. ; In the other games the Rangers Rang-ers trounced the Bingham Min- ers, while the Navy Jrs. were ! coasting by the Copperton 8th. j Leading the Rangers to a easy victory over the Miners were Pat Gonzales and Roger Valdez. The i Rangers are the new team in the league this half and it looks like ( trouble for some teams. The t scoring for the Miners was by ! Dick Kubota and Dick Montoya. j The Navy Jrs. who had to go all . ! out to beat the Copperton 8th were led by Gilbert Pando and Ronnie Boren in scoring while Tommy James was doing a masterful mas-terful job on the boards. The Copperton 8th was doing a good ' job in holding the Jrs. down and the credit goes to Jerry Crellin, "Ink" Jacobson and John PouU , son. Copperton 7th coasted on a bye. The Junior league has a new leader this half. After winning five games in a row the Spuds Gang fell prey to a good bunch of boys from Copperton. The Hawks who had the lead all the way had to work very hard to ; get by the zone defense, of Phil Compagno's boys. With George Rekoutis and David Butt sweep- ' ing the boards and Mike John- ' son doing the scoring were just too much for Spuds one man gang of Dallas Hakanson who is one of the outstanding boys down here. In their other game the Hawks trounced the . Bingham Bees. Fred Pando did the scoring for the Bees. While Spuds Gang in their other game downed the Copperfield team. The Copper-field Copper-field team was led by LeRoy Ivie, while Louis Susaeta led the Gang. The other big team in the league is the Bingham Mustangs who was the top scorer in the league. They are tied for first place with the Hawks by victories vic-tories over Copperfield and the Copperton Cats. The Cats were led by Stillman and Colyar but are no match for Davies and Archuleta, Ar-chuleta, the latter getting 12 points. In the PeeWee league it is still the Princess Midgets who are in the lead. They were undefeated un-defeated until they met up with the Copperton Seagulls. The Seagulls won game this past week while the Princess won one and lost one. Copperfield lost their only game played this week. George Sluga is the leading lead-ing scorer m the league and is also the mainstay on his team. Helping him are Floyd Trujillo and Lee Sturgill. Two Donnies' lead the Seagull team. They are Donnie Wright and Donnie Mar- kovich. Tim Thayer and Henry , Adachi are leading the Copper-field Copper-field team, which is just getting organized. The Salt Lake County Recreation Recre-ation furnished the Civic Center with two nice new mats, and the boys are really thrilled because they can now add wrestling and tumbling to the activities at the Center. The swimming pool that every one in Bingham has long waited for is really taking shape, and should be ready to go in the near future. Elwood Johnson and "Banker" Kelly were showing us their basketball bas-ketball form. After seeing that Tommy was way too much for Elwood, we got the idea of having hav-ing an "Old Man's" night. What do you say "old men"? Would you like a night set aside to get rid of that table muscle? Volley-Bali Volley-Bali and basketball could really do the trick. |
