Show WEEKLY -- REFLEX-DAV- NEWS JOURNAL, OCTOBER 28, 1976 IS Mb ?ig Ml fill Mn By DAVE WIGHAM With the season behind them the coaches of Region Two must now sit down and try to figure out who from the schools should be rewarded for their efforts and name their All Region team. NOW THIS isnt an attempt to tell the coaches whom they should pick. They know more about it than this reporter, but after speing all of the schools and talking to all of the coaches here is a list of some of the players that should appear on the elite list. The quarterbacking posi- tion will probably come down to two players, both of whom are only juniors. Clearfields Brian Johnson is as good as anyone in the region in mov- ing his club and putting points on the board. BEN LOMOND has an excellent QB in Rich Moore. He is probably the better of the two in throwing the ball, but then he has to be. He doesnt have the running backs that Johnson has. It could be a tough decision but give the inside track to Johnson, his Falcons are in State while the Scots arerfit. RUNNINGBACKS for the squad are some of the best in the state. There are three in the region that should all be named to the team. Robbie Clearfields Richeson, Laytons Curtis Page and Bountifuls Mark Dickerson have all proved their worth to their individual teams and all are college prospects. RICHESON is the best of the three. Last week against five tbuchdowns-Robb- ie has it all, size, speed Layton-- - attitude. Clearfield coaches claim hes the best in and the state. Page is a hard nose type of runner. If you doubt his ability just call the Ben Lomond coach. Hell tell you what he thinks of Curtis. the Scots, Page Against rushed for 285 yards. DICKERSON is somewhat of a combination of the other loam? two, he doesnt have the speed of Richeson but he is fast. He doesnt have the brute Page but he likes strength to run over people as well, so Mark combines both speed and strength to get the job of done. Seldom did a game go by that Dickerson wasnt the leading ball carrier and near the 100 yard mark. VIEWMONT should have a shoe-ifor the team in tight-en- d Tim Eden. Mr. Eden has been called the most consistent ball player for the Vikes n by his coaches. When the Vikes needed a big play they went to Eden. Tim also played well from his defensive end spot. These above mentioned players should be on the squad and each school has others that will be considered. THERE is the backfield, which even a novice fan should be able to pick out the best. The line and defense is tougher to tell and select the best, so lets just leave those decisions to the coaches. One thing for sure, with Johnson at quarterback and Richeson, Page and Dicker-so- n in the backfield, thats a great team. Region Two fans have seen some of the best players in the state this year.

Granger is known for their explosive and imaginative offense. When they have the ball, look for them to run anything and everything at the Eagles. on the other hand, Skyline likes to run the ball right at you and physically beat a Three champion Skyline team. A REPORTER would have to be crazy to try and pick this one. Im crazy, but I like Granger. Next week well look at the semi-fingames and see who many of my picks are in there. against Region Four runner-u- p Granger. SKYLINE has been ranked first all year with the Lancers from Granger right behind them. The Layton versus Provo matchup will pit two teams that know relatively nothing about each other. The Bulldogs won their Region by downing previously unbeaten Granger so they have to have a Vouth Soccer good squad. THE LAYTON team has been up and down all year but if Curtis Page is in full stride then the Lancers have a shot, but if Provo stops Page, then they should walk away PJJeef with the game. Rate Provo the favorite. Roy High made it to the semi-finalast year and were embarrassedby Bountiful, this year the Royals are back and want to take the whole ball of wax. With quarterback Jim Machanon they just might do it. First obstacle in the Royals way however is a big one in ls West High. THE I ANTHERS have only lost ope game this year, 10-- 7 against Skyline, but their quarterback Danny Mangum Davis Mies Saturday, Oct. 30, will be an exciting day for 240 area soccer players, as Kaysville and Layton host the Division VI and IV fall playoffs for the American Youth Soccer Organization, AYSO. Clearfield did win the region with a perfect 0 record. The Falcons did have a few scares throughout the season though, as both Bountiful and Ben Lomond gave the Falcons a good game as well as a scare. Remember Clearfield had a lot of returners off of last years team that went to the state quarterfinals. LAYTON also had a lot of returners from last year rating them high in polls. The Lancers suffered a big setback in the first week as they were upset by Ogden. The Lancers did lose another contest, to Clearfield, but by virtue of their victory over Bountiful the Lancers go to state as the number two team from the region. Layton showed a lot of pride and courage in coming back after that loss to Oeden. A TOTAL of 9 points is 5-- Its most a shame that Granger and Skyline have to play each other in the first round, but , pre-seas- keeping the Braves from another appearance at the state tournament. The Braves lost to Clearfield by a score of 7 and then to Layton These two losses are what are putting the Braves into the stands at Rice Stadium rather than on the field. Thats what makes the life of a coach so exciting. Try to put yourself in Coach Waites shoes, knowing that a mere 9 points is keeping you from taking state. 13-- 17-1- 4.

The experts, however, should stand up and take a bow. At the first of the year it was predicted that Clearfield would be the team to beat and that Layton and Bountiful would be right behind the Falcons. THE OTHER schools were picked to be very competitive and have a definite say in the season so when they met the second time Bountiful was mad and Roy was over con- heavies against each other right away.

By EZRA T. CLARK President Davis County Bank The nationwide immunization program against the swine influenza is underway. officials mmmmmrnmmmmmmmmmmm Health will attempt to vaccinate 200 million Americans to avert a fees. epidemic possible since the identified newly swine virus, designated ANew Jersey76, broke out among recruits at some Fort Dix earlier this year. Many people, following the advice of their doctors, are getting the shots. Many others are not. And this is, of course, a decision that the individual has to make, based on medical counsel. However, because I dont think most people are aware of the devastation caused by the great influenza epidemic of 1918, I believe its important to explore the possible costs of toi many Americans ignoring the swine flu shot. . . the costs in terms of human life and. secondarily, money. First of all. recognize the fact that the swine flu virus is unlike any other flu virus you may have experienced unless you were alive in 1918. It's a potential killer. In the last week of October. 1918, 21.000 Americans died of influenza in the United States, the highest death toll ever recorded in the nation during any week, for any cause, including fire and Nearly ten times as many Americans died in a few months of the epidemic as were killed in the last 18 months of World War . I. One major life insurance company alone paid out over $18 million to beneficiaries of 85,000 policies. Millions of Americans lost weeks of work, income and livelihood. The worldwide death toll was more than 20 million. According to the U.S. Public Health Service, testing of the blood of individuals who were living in 1918 shows almost all have antibodies to a swine-lik- e virus. "This suggests that a virus of this sort may have caused the 1918 pandemic." says ' the Service. The 1918 influenza "pandemic (as the Public Health Service calls it) was different from other outbreaks of the flu because of its high mortality rate - and because so many of the fatalities occurred ' among apparently healthy young men and women. Vaccines, not available in 1918, are now an effective way to prevent the disease. And antibiotics, also unavailable in 1918, are important factors in treating the complications of influenza, thus reducing fatalities, according to Public Health officials. The United States has never before at- tempted an immunization program of such scope and intensity as this campaign . against swine flu. There have been prob- lems meeting deadlines. There has been some controversy about the effectiveness : of the program. But why take a chance? If yoUr doctor . recommends the shot for you or members . of vour family, dont ignore it. Remember the terrible costs of the 1918 pandemic. -- -- -- |
