Coach Gickling felt that 90 of the time Emerys offense worked to perfection, and with a few adjustments will be 100 ready for Delta, Richfield, Millard and North Sanpete. Most of the explosive power was offered by Brice Williams, who once again broke loose for two 50 yard scampers as well as picking up another 52 yards the hard way for one 6 point talley. Dale Larson also showed his true value as the quick fullback helped open up the hole to spring Williams loose, in addition Dale rambled for a 50 yard TD, only to have it called back because of a holding penalty. All togethere Larsen carried 5 more times for a total of 50 yards rushing, a 10 yard per carry average, and Williams carried the ball 13 times for an 11.7 yard average; not a bad one-tw- o punch. Lwis Stilson was busy burning up the air ways with his accurate passing, complting 7 for 11 for a total of 130 yards and 3 TDs. Stilsons favoritet target is the Lean Dean Nelson. It seems like every time Nelson catches a pass it goes for a score. In the lost three ball games he has caught 5 passes, all for touchdowns, two of which were against Juab. Dale Larsen has also been on the receiving end of Stilson aerials catching one short flat pass and carrying it 34 yards for our fourth TD. Of course, whenever a Quarterback sees a chance to score he takes it and Stilson talleyd for No. 5. Part of our offensive credit goes to Kevin Tuttle who consistently catches the . babll thus keeping prssure on the defensive secondary. Kevin has caught more passes than any of our receivers, averaging 5 receptions a game for a consisten 50 yards. All totaled Emery rushed for 195 yards and passed for 130 yards for an offensive output of 325 yards compared with Juabs 257 yards total (173, 84). The defensive play of Emeiy lacked polish, however, but after receiving the game wilms and making the needed corrections, the defense is ready to tighten down and play hard nosed football.. Final score Juab 19. Emery 33 Everyone who can make it, we would like you to support the team at Richfield, October 14, at 1:00 p.m. This is on a Saturday and is Richfield's Homecoming game.

Lineman Danny Curtis Castle Dale Official Station Alvin Jensen, Observer Hi CONSOLIDATION VOLUME 68 week fcfpiper This is National Newspaper Week and a vood time to remind readers that Newspapers Get Things Done. This is the theme of Newspaper Week and its based not only on the action role played by newspapers throughout American history, but also on the accomplishments of todays newspapers in getting 'things done for their communities for education, public health and safety, religion, the arts, sports, recreation, youth programs, voter registration and and every worthwhile cause and, yes, for the economic prosperity of their communities with their substantial payrolls and their proven power to stimulate sales and sell merchandise. Early Freedom Fighters The first newspapers in America, late in the 17th century, began by protesting against colonial governors arrogant abuse of office and unendurable restrictions of cherished fredoms. For this, many newspapers were arbitrarily suppressed closely censored, or their publishers jailed. But in 1734, John Peter arZenger, a printer-publishrested for libel and imprisoned for printing attacks against the colonial administration, won acquittal in a celebratd trial which established truth as a defense in cases of libel and marked the beginning of freedom of the press in America. Until this time criticism of colonial government officials, even though true, was libelous and punishable by imprisonment. Press Guards Freedoms No nation ancient or modern, wrote Zenger in 1733, ever lost the liberty of freely speaking, writing, or publishing their sentiments, but forthright lost their liberty in general and became slaves. ion, topping 19Gg by 9' perctnt, and nearly doubling the dollar volume of television. Great Technical Advances Newsprint consumption, an inof newspaper business volume, was up 7 percent last year. Employment continued upward and outlays for new plants and equipment in the U. S. and Canada by newspapers exceeded $148 million. Weeklies spent another 150 million. In the past decade, they have spent more than $1 billion for new plants and modernization. These expenditures represent not alone replacement of obsolete and aging equipment and plants, but point to the expanding technological revolution in newspaper publishing which has seen such recent developments as computers for setting type, automatic mailing rooms, highof wire speed transmission of type news, and printing by the offset method. All these not only cut cost of production, but increase the overall quality and appearance of the product. dicator er True Christian charity is not just giving a man a dime when he is hungry.

NUMBER Lo Pr. 40 searched for on elk hunt Boys Two young Draper boys, Chad Kimball, 13, and ohn Noris, 14, spot a cool night alone in Joes Valley when they became separated from their party and spent the night wandering through Reeder Canyon. The boys were with a party of elk hunters, which included Chads father, Lloyd Kimball, who were camped at Littles Creek. They were last seen at the head of Reeders Canyon at about 12:30 p.m. Saturday. When they didnt return, the party alerted other hunters and the Emory County and Sanpete County Sheriffs departments. Sheriff Jack Leamaster, his deputies and members of the Emery County Jeep Posse responded to the call as did two members of the East Carbon Jeep Posse, Deputy Sheriff and Jeep Posse members from Sanpete, and hunters who were in the area. Ovr 76 men participated in the search. Sunday afternoon at about 12:30, the boys walked into the camp of some hunters at the head of Reeder Canyon. Both boys were in good condition and except for being a little tired, seemed none the worse for the experience. The boys stated they got through the night okay. Sheriff Leamaster expressed his appreciation to the men who responded to the call and helped in the search. He commended the men of the Jeep Posse who volunteer their time and vehicles in such times of emergency as this. Co-o- p improves in county The total emphasis on activities of the Castle Valley Co-o- p in recent years has been in trying to provide farmer-patron- s the kind of service and agronomic information mojst important to them. The cooperative and others throughout the state, will be highlighted during October as Utah and the nation observe Coop Month. A whole new co-o- p has been built in Huntington in the past few years. It began with a new bulk fertilizer storage facility with custom spreading equipment. Regular gas was the only petroleum product available at the co-o-p until new bulk storage tanks were added and the farm service truck began regular deliveries. A new farm supply store was constructed and the old one turned into additional warehouse space. Growth has been slow, but the cooperative is now making an important contribution to the g economic of patrons, fanners and the entire county. The cooperative acquired a $40,000 loan from Farmers Home Administration to add the facilities and services that were so badly needed in the area.
