Y. high school Wildcats, are wearing an uneasy crown this season. Generally Gen-erally conceded to be among the first four teams in the state this year,' they will have a Herculean task on their hands to even win a berth in the state tournament. The two main obstacles in their path toward winning the regional crown and a chance to defend their championship at the state tourney are the Pleasant Grove and American Fork quintets. At Pleasant Grove, Coach Earl Giles has a rangy aggregation that includes five lettermen and a host of sophomore talent. Bryan Bry-an Bezzant is an outstanding performer for the squad and was rated as one of the best guards in the state , last year, Other 1948 performers that are back in the lineup this year include Paul Hamand, who holds down the other guard post; John Gourley, centers, Doug Beck and Berdean Jarman, forwards. v , The Giles' hoopsters will have first-rate reserve backing from Ivan Allred, a six-foot, four inch sophomore; Art Louder, who stands six-foot, two inches, and who with Allred strengthens the pivot post; Jim Richards, Ross Brady, Del Harper, Ferrell Richardson, Rich-ardson, and Norman Hall are also al-so slated for a lot of action. The veteran quintet has turned in some well-played games in pre-season comp e t i t i o n and should give a good account of themselves when they entertain the Lehi team Friday night. The B. Y. high Wildcats with four cagers back from the championship cham-pionship squad and a new coach in the person of Rex Olsen, have been impressive in pre-league play, Harold Christensen, center; Norman Christiansen and Don Mcintosh, forwards, and Joe Ballif, guard, are the four returning re-turning regulars. A very welcomed wel-comed addition to the squad is Tom Karren, a six foot, V2 inch eager, who was accorded all-star honors while playing for Cards-ton, Cards-ton, Alberta, Canada. Paul Salisbury Salis-bury and Don Broadhead, experienced exper-ienced reserves, who with Dallin Oaks, a transfer student, Kent Lloyd, Gene Tuttle and Cliff Cor-less, Cor-less, will give Mentor Olsen a wealth of reserve strength. The Wildcats pre-season play has been, impressive enough to warrant naming them as the team to beat for the Alpine Championship toga. American Fork high with six lettermen back for the 1949 campaign cam-paign are expected to give B. Y. high a real battle for the Alpine crown. The Cavemen have a pre-season record of seven wins against two losses, and seem to have found an offensive combination combi-nation that will click. Coach Overly 's squad includes: Don Peterson, Delmar Fraughton, Loyal Iverson, and Eugene Hawkins, Haw-kins, forwards; LeRoy Griffin, Floyd Vest, and George Durrant centers; Glade Steiner, Max Smith, and Don Barratt, guards. The Cavemen's defensive play has been an important factor in their pre-season triumphs and this superiority is expected to be the decisive factor in their league games. Hunting Party Aids In Rescue of Motorists A rabbit hunting expedition by members of the American Fork Junior Chamber of Commerce ended up in a snow drift on the Cedar Fort highway Sunday night, at which time the expedition expedi-tion became an errand of mercy. Returning from a successful hunt at "the sinks" near Fairfield Fair-field the two cars in the party were stalled at 5 p. m. by a five-foot five-foot snowdrift on the highway through Cedar Valley about eight miles west of Lehi. Before long, 18 cars were stalled on the highway high-way in the heavy drifts. Some of the cars contained women and children and many were not adequately ade-quately equipped with heaters to protect the passengers from the raw wind. Leo Dickerson and Larry Lassen Las-sen set out afoot through the driving snow and made it into Lehi where they called the district dis-trict office of the State Road Commission. The district office dispatched some heavy equipment equip-ment to the drifted area but only the "cat" dispatched from Cedar Fort was able to get through to the stranded travelers on the initial try. Meantime, Richard Hunter, Stanley Dahl, Max Dickerson, J. A. Damico, and Maurice Timpson, who had stayed with the stalled cars, removed the travelers, who were endangered by exposure to their automobiles where the passengers were made comfortable comfort-able until the rescue was effected. Elwin Ault of Lehi who was stall ed in a light pick-up was not reached before he suffered frostbitten frost-bitten ears. ' The road was finally opened at 11:30 p. m. and all vehicles reached reach-ed Lehi without further mishap. Columbia River System From headwaters in the Selkirk mountains of southeast British Columbia Co-lumbia to its -Pacific outlet along the Washington-Oregon border, the Columbia system drains some 300.-000 300.-000 square miles of territory. Half a dozen northwest states, as well as Canada, are involved through a complex network of streams ranging rang-ing from the Canadian Kootenay to Oregon's Williamette, which meets the Columbia.

SAPII Come in now for IF KB) ALPINE MOTOR CO FORD DEALER 190 EAST MAIN AMERICAN FORK Weekly Paper Readership 8 Times Daily Readership of general advertising advertis-ing is seven to eight times as great among readers of hometown home-town newspapers as among readers read-ers of big city dailies, according to two surveys completed by the Department of Marketing at Brigham Young University, cooperating coop-erating with the B. Y. U. Journalism Journ-alism department. The surveys were made in Springville, using the Springville Herald, and in American Fork, with the American Fork Citizen as subject. Both were conducted under the sponsorship of the Utah State Press Association. The survey indicated, accord ing to Roy A. Schonian, manager of the U. S. P. A., that readership of general advertising in the two weekly publications averaged 40 for women and 34.37e for men. In metropolitan dailies, the average readership of general advertising is between 4 and 57o as indicated by readership studies of long standing accept ance, he declared. Average readership of small town weeklies is superior to metropolitan met-ropolitan newspapers because the tempo of life in the small town is slower, and hometown newspapers news-papers have that homey, neighborly neigh-borly spirit, which cannot be achieved by the big city dailies, Mr. Schonian said. Other readership surveys were made by the Brigham Young University departments of Journalism Jour-nalism and Marketing at Heber, Morgan and Kaysville, using local weeklies in each city as a basis for the studies. A. O. Thorne Gr Sons Progressive Concern Skating Rink Sitll Giving Recreation Head Trouble Exasperating, isn't it? Ask Vern Holindrake city recreation director, and his assistants who have labored through sub-zero weather to get the city ball park skating rink in shape. Mr. Hol indrake was at the 1 .rink late Tuesday night hopeful that the water was holding, but no, it had run off at the south end. The foentonite filler used as a base to keep the water from soak ing into the ground Is doing the joy, says Mr. Holindrake, but the embankment at the south end is too porous. In grading the site weeds and tree twigs were piled up and are causing the trouble. However, Wednesday the city trucks were able to get through the deep snow to a source of clay north of town and this material will be used to plug the bad places. So, says Mr. Holindrake, barring other complications, this rink should be in shape soon for devotees of this popular winter sport. The rink behind the Second ward church is in good shape and skaters are making the most of the freezing weather. One of the more progressive concerns in the . Provo district, and one that has received the whole-hearted support and good will of people of . this district is the construction organization operated op-erated by A. O. Thorne and his two sons, Paul A. and Grant S. Thorne.

Dove-tailing their operations into a single concrete service to home-owners and builders alike, A. O. Thome & Sons have satis factorily completed many contracts con-tracts for the construction of all types of concrete work such as foundations, walks and driveways drive-ways and many remodeling and repair jobs.
