Provo Speedboat Drivers Invited To Participate In Salt Lake City Meet The annual Haynes lake regatta re-gatta will be held Sunday at the Salt Lake City course, 5600 West on 27th South, it was announced today by the Salt Lake power Boat association. The meet will probably be the last of the season for the pilots of the speedy water craft, and the Salt Lakers are issuing an invitation for all interested drivers in this area to compete. Tom Gessford, commodore of the local boat club, said today that he had received a letter from the Salt Lake group inviting in-viting any member of the Provo club to compete in the regatta. The Haynes lake regatta will probably be the final event of the power boat racing season, Mr. Gessford stated, and added that COLD See the New Post - War MOR-SUN Warm Air Furnace Before Installing Your Heating System Nothing Down Three Tears To Pay GAS OR OIL Craghead Plumbing & Heating . 56 NORTH 2ND WEST PHONE 1510 PROVO DAILY HERALD will be the first of a five game playoff series between Brigham, the second half "champion"' and Provo, the first half title-holders. The only trouble is, Brigham won their "pennant" on paper and not on the playing field, and the protest from the southern end of the league was immediate and vociferous. Provo and Helper, the two teams with most to lose by the high-handed action of loop president Hy Facer in "giving" the second half title to the Peaches, have already entered protests against the action. Facer, in explaining his action, stated that the tie game between be-tween Magna and Brigham would be given to Brigham because "Magna had hung up their suits" and hence the make-up game between . Provo and Brigham a. would not be necessary as tne Peaches would win on percent- d6ca- .... Helper, the team which has just as valid a claim to the second half title as Brigham has immediately im-mediately come iorth with the charges that Brigham was not wholly on the up and up. Ernest Gardner, president of the Helper team, immediately filed a protest with the league that the Millmcn were on the field last Friday to meet the Peaches, and Brigham failed to show, thus making Facer's ex cuse that Magna nad nung up Harold Makin, Timp president, presi-dent, called Facer, this morning morn-ing on the deal, and was told by the league president that the loop statistician had informed in-formed him that Brigham would win the title no matter how the. game with Provo came out.

Injury-Ridden Cats Primed To Start Year With Triumph By DEMAR TEUSCIIER Head Coach Eddie Kimball will take the wraps off his 1947 T-model T-model football machine tomorrow tomor-row night at 8 p. m. under the lights of the BYU stadium and the indications are there will be a goodly number cf" the football faithful on hand to see the ensuing en-suing action. Whether or not the Cougar machine starts out on all 11 cylinders, or whether it gets stymied by a fumblitis wrench thrown into the offensive workings work-ings remains to be seen. But interested In Provo is running high as to just how "dark" the Cougar machine, labeled the dark horse candidate candi-date in the Big Seven conference, confer-ence, will be. An impressive win over the crew from Gunnison, Colorado would mean the Cougar stock should get a slight boost, while another show such as last year would only convince the rail-birds rail-birds that the Cats need more grooming. Coach Kimball has not yet announced his starting lineup, line-up, but a probable roster, subject to . change, was listed by the Cougar mentor Thursday Thurs-day evening with a line averaging 185 pounds and the backfield tipping the scales at 178. Kimball listed Jim Kietzman, 185, and Thayne Stdhe. 190 at the end spots; Kimball Merrill, 195, and Gayle Holt, 205, tackles; Marion Tree, 167, and Ken Hamblin, 171; guards and Alvin Dalley, 182, center.

Pennie, playing in a foursome consisting of Gordon Crane, Mark Nilsen and Lyle Overlade, fired an eagle two under par for the par 4, No. 1 hole, first time in the history of the course that such a feat had been accomplished. The phenomenal shot was a number 4 iron from far out and dropping gently into the cup after landing on the green and rolling a short way. "It was a real thrill." the slight, he-spectacled golfer, who consistently consist-ently toUrs the local course in par. stated. "It was just as good a feeling as my hole in one earlier in the year." The hole in one spoken of came about two months ago on the number eight hole and was the second such shot on that same hole recorded, although Pennie did not make both of them. In his outgoing round Wednesday, Wednes-day, Pennie took a bogey five on the first hole and finished the round with a respectable 36. one over par. After his startling eagle to start out the second nine holes, iversity field. Calling the signal for the BYU T, and doing most of the punting and passing, will be .Rex "Icewater" Olsen, senior from Granite. , Starting at the left half spot will be the California speed demon, Scotty Deeds, whose running run-ning set the league on fire last year. At right half is rugged Glen Clark, who believes if you canH run around 'em, you run over them. Fullback duties will be handled by Big Bruce Osborne, former' Utah State line-bustcr. Another man slated to see plenty of action ac-tion at this post will be Glen OliverFon, senior from Idaho. Lyle Holier, triple -threat ace from South high, will spell Deeds off at left half and Is sure to see plenty of action. He might even get the starting nod. Koller Is the best punter on the squad. Another punter who will get into the game considerable is Cecil Lloyd, all-state halfback from Idaho, who was booting them far and high in punting drills Thursday. ' Don Bushore and Jim Eccles a,re a pair of sharp-shooting passers pas-sers from the quarterback slot who are certain to get into the tilt. Both are pretty fair punters. punt-ers. On the line, where Kimball has been hardest hit by injuries, the status of reserves are pretty undecided. Possibly only Fielding Abbot and Max Shifrer will be definitely out of the game, but Mike Mills, big end, is not due to see much action. Larry Reed, another rugged end, and Stan Stapley, big guard, are two more probables who may get into the tilt. Kimball Kim-ball is taking no cha.nces, however, how-ever, on getting any of his players play-ers hurt seriously by an injury too early in the year. According to all reports, the big Western State line hits close to 200 pounds per man, and they have some fleet backs operating behind this forward wall, so the tilt might be a stiffer test for the Sons of Brigham than most people think.
