The Park City High School Boys! tennis team, undefeated undefeat-ed in its first f 15 league matches, got a rude awakening awaken-ing last Thursday afternoon. The Miners lost all three singles matches en route to a 2-3 loss to the visiting Dugway Mustangs. It was the f jrst time that Dugway had ever, beaten Park City in boys' tennis. Each of Park City's three singles players lost in straight sets. "A couple of them had bad days," Miner Coach David Chaplin agreed. "I think Paul (Dyer) definitely had a bad day.... ; : , ,- "It does happen to people," he smiled. "Particularly "Parti-cularly tennis players." On the other hand, the Park City doubles teams were at the top of their game, losing only one of five sets. The closest match of the day was in number one doubles, where Mike Jarosz and Ted Bird outlasted Dugway's Joe Mohammad and Sam Lediard, 7-6, 6-7, 6-2. Both the first and second sets were decided by tie breakers. 66EDWlt!icla Start with the books, the linens, the silver. Then go on to the big stuff: the stereo, the TV, the furniture.

"Ted got his serving at a much higher level of accuracy, and it's a really good serve when it's in. "And Mike's short game has improved a lot. It's a result of a lot of good hard work on his part." He gave credit to Dennis Bird and Ronn Cooper of the Park City Racquet Club for their work with the Jarosz-Bird Jarosz-Bird team. In number two doubles, Collyn Adamson and Scott Pirraglio knocked off Kevin McMinn and Steve Lundy, 7-5, 6-2. "They played a typically very strong, very smart, effective match," Chaplin said. "They made very few mistakes." But Park City's singles players were not so effective. ef-fective. In number one singles, Dugway's John Bate managed man-aged to throw Darrick Olsen off his normal game plan. "Darrick was trying to do things he doesn't normally do," Chaplin said. "He was trying to hit reai hard and win by pressure rather .than placement." Bate played an exceptional first set, winning 6-1, then held off Olsen in the second set, 7-5. Olsen had two set points in the second set but couldn't take advantage of them. "Darrick has a real good record with three-set matches," match-es," Chaplin said. "I think if it had gone into the third set, he probably would have beaten Bate." In number two singles, Dugway's Steve Bruce coasted coast-ed past Shawn Glieden 6-4, 6-2. Bruce attacked the net at every opportunity, keeping Glieden in the back court. "All Shawn could do was stay back there and hope Steve made some mistakes," Chaplin said. Steve Bruce made very few mistakes. In number three singles, Park City's Paul Dyer dropped drop-ped a 7-5, 6-2 decision to Troy Carney. Dyer had a 5-2 lead; in the first set, tnen lost cavon ctraitfht cramps "Things just stopped work ing for him, things he" normally does well," Chap-", lin said. ; The Miners will have the-chance the-chance to redeem theni-5 selves Friday when the!

''I'm all right, don't nobody worry about me Why you gotta give me a fight? Why don't you just let me be?" And the reason for this kind of madness is you're on the way to Southern Utah for the annual burst of early spring. Zonk City. An annual Rite of Passage. , As usual, I was with Smeryl Bemish, who was glad to get out of the mountains for a change and make it to the pure serenity of the red an ochre canyons of Capitol Reef ; places like Capital Wash and the Orange Dome that reigns supreme in that neck of the world, a miracle of architecture fashioned by wind, rain and Lost Gonzo Missionaries. Bemish and I didn't have a Ferrari. It was the usual sort of transportation now that we've stepped up (or down depending on the way you live your life) into the Thoreau Truth Merchant Express Co-op. We had the Volkswagen Camper. And never mind that there was that ugly death rattle lurking in the engine; the sound of a car about to breathe its last. We ran onto Joe Hickman the Younger when we hit torrey, which happens to be the metropolis of Wayne County. We're talking about 50 to 75 families top, and Hickman has about 500 acres out near a rock formation known as the "Cock's Crown." It happens that Hickman is the nephew of Old Joe Hickman, who helped put together Capitol Reef National Park. It's a whizbang sort of place, not unlike the great formations you find in Arches and Canyonlands. "I was hoping they'd put that power plant in and the dam on the Fremont River here, and then the whole thing would be under water," Hickman said. "Then I got to thinking about it, and I decided I wasn't for it after all." One of the nice things about living in the Grover area, which is near Torrey, Hickman explained, is you don't see too many people.; "If I had to live in the city I'd go nuts," he ' said, spitting a string of tobacco onto a piece of land he owned. He's recently started, raising Charolais cattle, and as he spat on the ground, he looked out at 25 head that he was, considering taking to market in Salina the" next day. "Here in the country I can raise everything I need to eat and nobody bothers me," he said. "The city is a crazy place. People are nuts." Later, when we'd hicked up Capitol Gorge to take a look at the petroglyphs and the Pioneer Register high on the walls of the canyon, Hickman's words started to make a lot of sense. It seemed like the San Diego freeway in there. People all over. Everybody scratching their names on the walls just like they were Father Escalante. Hickman comes from a long line of sportsmen sports-men who live and die over a good horse. Hisr uncle, Don Frank, shot himself in the arm while duck hunting once, and a good horse, saved his life. "He just hopped up on his horse and kicked him in the flanks and the horse got him back to the house. By the time he got therehe'd lost so much blood that he was unconscious. He just fell off his horse there" in the fr&ril yard. . Aunt Jule, his wife, ran out and they rushed him over to the doctor." So, Hickman explained, that's one reason he still had those three horses out there in the pasture, rearing up and 'down, hopping around like big rabbits. "I don't ride that much anymore," he said. "The other day. some guy told me he'd give me $2,000 for that" Tennesee Walker. I told him I'd take half that; much if he'd pay me right now. But he didn't." So many of these guys are just talkers. They come in here from California and buy land and talk about settling down and becoming, ranchers, but they don't know shit about horses or cattle." convention and Visitors bureau May Convention Cast Dates Name of Group 51-53 Cypress Credit Union 54-58 Northwest Pipeline 54-58 Brigham Young University 57-58 Utah SpeechLanguage & Hearing Assoc. 57-59 Utah SocietyMedical Technologists 58-59 Utah Fire Incident Reporting System 510-522 IBM . 514-516 Heating & Air Conditioning Contractors 515-516 Utah Assn. of Marriage & Family Counselors 525-528 Utah Innovations Center 531-64 Frederick Atkins Corporation People Property 45 Holiday Inn 30 Prospector Sq. 50 Prospector Sq. 125 Holiday Inn 150 Prospector Sq. 175 Holiday Inn 50 Prospector Sq. 100 Holiday Inn 100 Prospector Sq. 250 Holiday Inn 50 Holiday Inn The Irish Camel Ltd. is still open!
