In the opening set Stephanie Bunn got the Buffs off on the right track by serving for three straight points. Dugways first serve was in to the net and Tooele went on a five point binge behind the serving of Lori Lawson, the setting of Bunn and Bushs spiking, and before Dugway could regroup Tooele was cruising in front After Dugway had scored three points, Lawson toed the service line again and this time the Buffs added three points to their score for a 13-- 3 lead.

Harris personally accounted for more than half of the 144 yards Crantsville ground out in its 28-1- 9 win over the stubliom Cougars of Union. And the opposition that Union placed in front of Crantsville and Harris wasnt the kind you would usually expect from a high school if team. One lineman weighed in excess of 3(X) pounds, another wasnt much lighter at 270, and four other Union obstacles tipped the scales at better than 220 pounds.

Game time in Grantsville is 5 p.m. Trouble Awaits Tooele After failing to upset West last week Tooele goes after more big game when the Buffs go to Salt Lake for a meeting with Judge Memorial at 7:30 p.m. In polls conducted throughout the state. West is ranked number one in one poll and number two in another, while Judge gets the nod as the best in one, and number two in the other. Take your pick, both West and Judge have powerThe Bulldogs are undefeated in four games and have established themselves as being fully capable of successfully defending its state championship.

At c t" I 14-0- J 4 missed the South Summit and Union night games, will also be ready for action against Emery. The return of Youngberg and Flores gives added punch to the ball only is expected to provide a stem test for the Pokes. Wasatch high school is undefeated in five games including an 18-- 3 win over Tooele, and Cowboy coach Larry Harrison is acutely aware that this same Emery ball club played Wasatch extremely tough before losing set. Both Dugway and Tooele have young inexperienced teams and Tuesdays action was fast and furious, making up in enthusiasm what it lacked in pure skill. Brilliant play by both teams was the rule rather than the exception and when the squads work out the kinks, both Tooele and Dugway will present skilled teams that are going to be hard to beat. Concerning the return of Mark Flores to Grantsvilles football team, there is good news and there is bad news. It is good news for the Pokes, because Flores is a very fine ball packer. The bad news is for Emery, because Flores is going to add another dimension to Grantsvilles already potent attack. Flores missed Grantsvilles last two games because they were night games and playing football at night is not permitted by Flores religious beliefs. West, 42-There seems to be a jinx concerning Tooele being able to win on its home field, and maybe the trip to Salt Lake will be just what the Buffs need to get back on the winning track. A win over Judge would send the Judge Pads Lead Over Tooele Golfers Tooele stock soaring. Shoot For A Win W-- Dugway, with hopes still running high, especially after playing number one ranked Park City to a 20-1- 4 point loss, will be shooting for a win when they go to Coalville to meet the Braves of North Summit. The Mustangs, under the new coaching regime of Dan Pitcher got away to a good start by defeating Duchesne 22-1- 2 in the seasons opener, but since then have fallen on unfortunate times. In a revenge battle, Grantsville knocked over Dugway. The Mustangs then suffered a one point loss to East Carbon, then last weeks loss to powerful Park City, giving Dugway three losses in aCU I dont know what it is going to take to catch those guys (Judge Memorial), Tooele golfing coach Wayne Robins said today after his team has dropped two strokes to league leading Judge Memorial Oh, I know that we have to get that little ball into the hole in fewer strokes, but we played good golf yesterday and they still picked up a couple of strokes. Robins was talking about Wednesdays match played at Rose Park in which Tooele shot a 250, two strokes more than Judges 248, giving the Bulldogs a score of 1022 compared to 1028 for Tooele. Even though Tooele dropped two strokes to Judge they did put some daylight between them and Murray who is now in third place with a score of 1044, followed by Jordan, 1048, West 1135 and South trailing with a score of 1420. Mike Criffith and Duane Gillette fired 81s, Steve Tate came in with an 83, and Craig Leonelli posted an 85 to account for Tooeles scoring. Other Tooele scores were Russ Spendlove, 86, Norman Northcutt, 88, Shawn Gregrich, and Boyd Roberts with a 98. Tooeles next outing is Wednesday at 10 a.m. at Stansbury Park. a row. The Mustangs figure that three is too many and will be out to stop that losing streak as well and come up with its first league win. Ladies Qualify Game time in Coalville is 7:30 p.m. In our guessing game, we are prognosticating at a .667 clip having been right in 8 of 12 games. We were 100 percent last week we are sorry to say, because we correctly picked both Tooele and Dugway to lose, and we would much rather have been wrong. This week we will stick with Grantsville to win it is Homecoming; Dugway to defeat North Summit Dugway is overdue; and reluctantly pick Judge Memorial to defeat Tooele. The quartet of Virginia Franches, Connie Outzen, Norma Pitt and Naomi Criffith will represent the Tooele East Unit in the Walter Hagen divisional tournament which will be held at Jeremy Ranch Sept. 27. The golfers helped raise nearly $2 thousand for the American Cancer Society, according to Dolly Gregrich, chairman and organizar for the tournament which was played on the Stansbury course. - Oquirrh Hills Prepares For State Tournament The final formal golf tournament of the year in Tooele will be held Sunday when most of the states best golfers converge on the Oquirrh Hills course for the Best Ball 15th Annual State Two-Ma- n competition.

McFarlund also announces that there will lie 9.30 and 1:30 shotgun starts for the 18 hole test.

Madsen Wins Bob Madsen, taking full advantage of his 24 handicap won the Alibi tournament held last Wednesday. An Alibi gives all the duffers a chance to win a tourney and claim some prize money. It is played this way: A golfer halves his established handicap and then is allowed that many mulligans to be used on any hole or any club the golfer desires. Low score over nine holes is the winner. Madsen fired a 24 to capture first place, Steve Hinkle with a 30 handicap Tooeles Mighty Mites Win, Cra-crof- finished second with a score fo 26, Cene Long, a 20 handicapper was third with 26, and Rich Peterson, Doug Walters and David Smith tied for fourth with scores of 29.

Deavila performed the same feat a turned a kick-of- f year ago, also against West. Tooele fans are hoping that Mike will make it a habit and do the same thing Friday when Tooele goes against Judge Memorial in Salt Lake. 19-- 0 0 with Jordan and losing to West, in their first two games, Tooeles Mighty Mites put it all together Saturday to get an impressive 19-- 0 win over Granite. Tooele did it with the offensive efforts of Angel Merino, Ricky Smith, Kelly Brown, and Brian Coodpasture running the ball behind a great line, of John Howard, Frank Anderson, Owen Curtis, Mark Proctor, and Chase Nash, doing most of the heavy work. Then the defense bolstered by Eddie Evans, Mike Hamilton, Travis Ruybal, Travis Byrd, Tony Cloward, Jeremy Kroff, Jeff Larson, Chris Graham, held the Granite team to zero points. 14-- 0 Wednesday Finale The 15-1- 8, ous opponents.
