Ruggers past and present. Photo: Pat McDowell Steered by the unflagging : enthusiasm of Father John Hart, the Park City Foun-. Foun-. ders held the Park City Muckers at bay for the first seven minutes of Sunday's j Founders Match. Even though the latter-day I ruggers showed the polish ! and conditioning of their I current season, they couldn't ; begin to hold a candle to the Founders' never-say-die spirit. i The first twenty-minute ; period was punctuated by f two unanswered Mucker trys, both on backline movements which featured good handling and pace, j Between scores the Foun- ders scrambled after the ball with a fire and intensity which recalled the reason of 1 1971 when the first P.irk City Rugby side was ablr t i i ' it : " fcome a massive lack m ex-,1 I perience by thru nig f caution to the winds. Prior to the game UiC . Founders had rounded out their side with several hit- chhikers and spectators-i spectators-i also reminiscent of that first 5 year. Coming off the j touchline ' to bolster the lineup were Ron Schultz, Mike Cooper, Danny I Christensen, Billy Groves S and Pat Brennan, all of a whom caught the Founder I fever and raced around the pitch like a pack of terriers. Gary Knudsen resumed S his familiar spot at Number 1 8, Rick Ford locked the scrum with Christensen, Evil Jeff Wallace played his game at Flanker, and Norm ? Hall, Dick Meehan. and 5 Dave Mueller rounded cut S the Founder pack in the front 5 row. With Meehan constan-? constan-? tly frustrating the opposing Hooker by sweeping away so much ball, the Muckers often of-ten found themselves wanting wan-ting for good possession. Meehan also was able to control the tempo of the contest con-test with his long distance sojourns to the mark from one corner of the pitch to another. The" Founder backline tackled vigorously all day, forcing the vaunted Mucker Centres into a kicking game. With Fullback Groves cutting off all threat of deep punts, the Mucker backs had to execute their kicks perfectly, even so, many times to no avail. The deep backs were coordinated coor-dinated by the reliable Ken Binatena who patrolled his customary spot at Wing. Working closely with his Centres, Binatena 's strategy , stymied the sucker moves the Muckers threw at his mates. Bill Coleman and Cooper stalled the Muckers time and again with excellent ex-cellent positioning and sure tackling. Pat Brennan covered the other wing with power and speed, several times creating breaks for the Founders with his stiff defense. The real sadness was that the Founders couldn't score in the first stanza. They were only yards from glory on several occasions, only to be thwarted by the bounce of the ball and a bad streak of luck. In fact, it was a crazy streak of bad fortune which tainted both Mucker trys in the initial period. Groves, streaking across to cover in his sure-fashioned way, slipped slip-ped on some loose gravel at mid-field and the Muckers got by to the line. O.D. shows a lot of Hart.

Tackling and running with conviction, the Founders again pounded on the gates with only dissap-pointment dissap-pointment as their reward. Incredibly, the Muckers held them out in a period which was played mostly in the visitors' end. Only once did the Muckers threaten, a situation which Winger Brennan handled with aplomb. Attempting to pierce pier-ce the Founder defense with a dropped goal, the Mucker Scrum Half had the ball shank off his ankle in a menancing arc toward the Founder line. Brennan fielded the ball under some duress and calmly touched down to gain his drop-out twenty two. The third period went the same as the first, the Muckers capitalizing on .the misfortune of Bill Groves. Groves badly twisted his ankle early in the period, but refused to beg off, chiding even his brother Carl when he encouraged him to go off. Carl, who had come on in the final period for Knudsen at Number 8, then offered to switch to Fullback, if Bill would take his spot in the forwards. "You're new here," said the gritty Fullback to his younger brother as he trotted trot-ted back into position, "Get back into the scrum." But alas, on three oc-cassions oc-cassions the Muckers chipped chip-ped the ball through for three late game trys which a healthy Groves would have most assuredly denied. The final score was 22-0, Muckers, and a humble Dick Meehan tried to sum it up by saying, "They knew they were in a game." His true feelings, however, had to question: "How did we blow that one?" Ever wonder how safe your hunting partner is? Here is a quick quiz that will give you an indication of how safety oriented he or she might be and whether or not a review of the basic hunting safety rules might be in order. On the quiz, score ten points for each question answered "always," five points for a "sometimes" and zero for "never." Sixty points and above indicate good hunter safety, 4560 points show a need to improve hunter habits and less than 45 points signals a candidate for the nearest hunter safety class. Here are the questions: 1. Is your gun on safety until you are ready to shoot? 2. When unloading your gun, do you count the number of shells you eject to assure the gun is empty? 3. Do you know where your hunting partners are at all times? 4. Have you fired at least 100 rounds of ammunition to become familiar with the firearm you are using? 5. Do you wear hunter orange clothing as required? 6. Are you sure of the background behind your target? 7. Do you unload your gun before crossing a fence or other obstacle? 8. Do you report game violations to your local conservation officer?

'"Utah has a good hunter safety record and we want it to continue," he said. Robertson, Robert-son, who is the head of hunter education activities in Utah, went on to say that the only way the safety trend will continue is for every individual hunter to be aware of and rigidly adhere to the basic rules of hunting safety and ethical field conduct. 9 o Park City Racquet Club Peterson Best Of Horsey Set A horse show sponsored by the Ridge Riders of Park City was held last Saturday and Andrea Peterson won a special award as the rider who accumulated the highest number of points in the performance categories.
