Show At the semi-final- s Emery loses game but not its pride The end to a great football season came on the turf at Rice Stadium at the University of Utah last week when the Emery Spar28-tans lost to Woods Cross in the semi-finalEmery stayed close to the Wildcats early in game, but a powerful running attack and a surging defense proved to be the difference as the team from Bountiful advanced to the state championship game this week against Logan. For Emery, the season ended with a 10-- 2 record, a region championship and many wonderful memories. A tremendous group of Emery High fans turned up at Rice Stadium for the game last week, and it appeared as though there were more fans rooting on the Spartans than there were fans cheering for the Wildcats. Even with the loss, Emery proved that it can play with the larger schools and that the Spartans have built a winning tradition under coach Jim Jones that continued throughout the season.

Everyone, he said, will be sure to like the set, a castle, which has been designed by junior Tonya Israelsen. Assisting Mr. Peacock with the directing of the play is Sheryl Lake, who also has a lead in the musical and was recently named speech and drama Sterling Scholar.

Also, the broadcast comes to the school early enough so that it may be screened and edited by local school officials.

Ms. Pothen pointed out that the commercials are what pay for the systems. Reporters on Channel 1 are young, often themselves teenagers, and many broad- casts include celebrity reporters. Emery High Principal Brent Arnold said that he had previewed the system earlier and had talked to some of the high school teachers about using it in the schools. He said that the program would bring nearly 25 TV sets into the school, just about one per classroom, but he said that it might be best for the school to use the news broadcasts just in the history and social science classrooms on an ongoing basis.
