Of 1" A greatly-improved Brigham Young university basketball team, turning in one of its best performances per-formances of the season, notched up its third consecutive victory Friday, smothering: Denver's Pioneers, Pio-neers, 52-37, in the Women's gym. In other Friday games, Colorado Colo-rado chalked up its SO consecutive consecu-tive conference victory in its field-house field-house by turning back Utah, 35-32. 35-32. Wyoming came through with a 41-35 victory over Utah State in a well-played afternoon grame at Logan. Fans, and there were many of them, who missed Friday's Denver-Young- U clash, missed seeing a rejuvenated Cougar team a cage crew Chat staged an excellent ex-cellent exhibition of passing, shooting and team work wallop the Pioneers. From the time early in the pa me when Don Overly, brilliant "Y" guard, swished the strings with two long shots to put his team ahead., the Cougars completely com-pletely dominated the contest. D'enver drew to within 5-9 of the Cougars shortly before the midway point of the first half and in the second half narrowed the margin to 32-26, but the Cougars managed to turn on the steam whenever a threat loomed to retain their lead. Although every player who got in the game and all but Stan Nielsen saw action for the "Y" looked good, it was Dean Gardner Gard-ner who came off the bench to sparkle in Young ITs smooth, driving attack. Gardner rustled well, passed and worked into the attack nicely, and came up with 12 points. Bob Orr, pinch-hitting for Nielsen, Niel-sen, who was still bothered by lumbago, turned in a fine performance per-formance at guard. Dale Rex turned in his best game, working the bankboards effectively and playing fine defensive tall. Frank (Skinny) Fullmer, another substitute, substi-tute, played well and tanked nine points. Although he had tough luck on his baskets, Dwane Esp-lin Esp-lin turned in a nice floor game. Coach Eddie Kimball started four sorfhomores Rex, Esplin, Orr, and Dale Hunt with senior Don Overly and the combination combina-tion clicked from the first. ! Denver was off in its passing and only the sensational sopho-moie sopho-moie center, Harold Peterson, rould connect with any frequency. It was Peterson who supplied the scoring punch for the Denver invaders in-vaders with 15 points, chiefly from hook-shots. The spindly, tow-headed soph showed the type of ball that makes him a leading candidate tor all-conference honors. hon-ors. . Both teams demonstrated shooting shoot-ing ability from the foul line. B. Y. U. connected for 16 free throws in 20 tries its best average of the season and Denver hit the basket 13 in 16 times from the foul line.

Although a host of capable performers per-formers will return for the coming com-ing season, B. Y. U. will not be as strong as last year due to the loss of several outstanding performers. per-formers. Captains Graduate Co-captain Carl Clark, ace pole- vaulter, was good for five points in every meet he entered, including includ-ing conference competittbn, and Les Cannon, the other captain, could usually be depended on for points in the weights. Both graduated. grad-uated. Also lost was Lee Brooks, brilliant bril-liant 440-yard man, and Russ Nielsen, Niel-sen, sophomore quarter-miler last year who is not in school. Alex Bland and Hafen Leavitt were also dependable point-winners in sprints and weights, respectively. Quenten Utley was a consistent scorer in the javelin event. This year, B. Y. U. will be strong in the dashes and distances, and weak in the quarter mile, pole vault, and most weights. In the jumps, hurdles, and javelin events, the Cougars' strength is questionable. mteoiio:h Doivling - Fans Three Teams from Carbon County will play a Special Match with Three Teams from Provo ...

Lamont Wilcox, transfer from Ricks, won both dashes in last year's Invitational carnival. Hank Bourne, two-time half mile conference champion, is back this year and may excell his past performances. Bourne, the other co-captain of the team, was injured during the winter while skiing but is rounding into shape again. Tony Ivins and George 1 hatcher are other 880-yard hopefuls. hope-fuls. In the longer distances, Coach Floyd Millet is well fortified. By-ton By-ton Woodland and Carl Jones will probably run In the mile, with Ted Johnson and Bus Webb in the two mile event. All four are experienced ex-perienced men. Morris Bushman is another distance hopeful. Of the running events, the Cougars Cou-gars are weakest in the 440-yard uash. Champ Tanner is good at this distance but he can yet develop de-velop speed. Ivins or Thatcher may also be used in this event. Lake and Mlemcr Jumping and hurdle strength depends on several question marks. George Lake looked fairly good last year in both hurdles and jumps but his performances were not outstanding. Fred Wiemer was ineligible last year but is all set for tne 1941 season. If he reaches the heights he is capable of, the "Y" team may surprise in this direction. Don Parduhn, sophomore, sopho-more, may develop into a good hurdler. The javelin appears to be the Cougars' strong point among v, eight events. Dick Peterson, consistent point-getter Is back this year, and Owen Dixon and Bob Orr are good prospects.

Friday was also a big night for Provo's Bulldogs who saw their chances for second place and a tourney berth greatly improved.

It was all the Wildcats Wild-cats could do to stave off a Pleas-ant Pleas-ant Grove surge in the final period.
