A pair of walks were added then with two down, Gray reached safely. A single drove him in with the final run. Hunt then went to work on the Ogden line up, but he walked a pair of batters before retiring the side with help from his infield. He struck out 13 in the game. With a pair of games scheduled this week by the prep-sterthe regular season winds to a close and a double elimination tourney begins Saturday in Ogden with the winner heading to California.

The Peaches hold a hard-luc- k record this season, losing five one-ru- n ball games. Smith-fiel- d did the latest damage in a 2 game Monday night at Pioneer park. The Cache crew jumped to a 0 lead in the first inning on a pair of home runs off Steve Valentine and the Peaches couldnt quite overcome that initial bulge. Valentine bore down and gave up no more hits the remainder of the game, striking out 15, including the entire side in two innings and two batters an inning in four others. The Peaches, meanwhile, were outhitting their nemeses but not putting enough runs across. Scott Cottam scored in the bottom of the first on a single by and a pair of wins against the two Roy teams would assure them first place the northern division, according to coach Harold Anderson. Pending the outcome of these two games, the Box Elder bunch will play either at 1 or 6 p.m. Saturday at John Affleck park in Ogden.

And the performance of his existing explayers there plus 1977-78 citement over the cage campaign has him bubbling with enthusiasm. Even as a couple of cagers walked by carrying footballs for some time on the grid field, the hoop mentors eyes shone with anticipation. The WSU experience obviously had served to whet his appetite. There were 450 prepsters at y the school, described by the coaching staff as the strongest ever. vational talks, played three games daily and had special sessions on jump balls, plays and free throws. Coach Stewart said emphasis was on defense, different phases of passing and rebounding. And after it was all over, the local contingent of Bees had reaped a generous share of honors. For example, seniors Marlin Jensen, Clark Andersen, Bob Day, and Kline Adams and junior Mike McCarron were named Two others, Dale Money and Kevin Farnsworth, played on camp championship teams and all-star- s. Steve Yagi received a trophy for being the best ball handler in camp. Three other Box Elder players received the Commissioner award for attitude, hustle and Malcolm Reeves, Denspirit nis Munford and Tom Jones. But as much as these forms of recognition were satisfying, Coach Stewart said the local boys were singled out by staff members also for their conduct and appearance. Was Gratifying And that was very gratifying to me, he commented. The coach got involved as a member of the camp staff. But players, Rex Adams, went as a driver. What was the highlight or outstanding feature of the camp? It depends upon whom you ask. Andersen said he liked the lectures and motivational talks, an opinion shared by Jensen. I liked the competition with the other players, Yagi said in future reference. Later, after much frustration and no fish, F&G decided to try LBrer Crawad on the hook.

F&G finally picked up a pair of rainbows and two cutthroats, not big but nice enough. And he was lucky. No snakes wiggled by to raise the blood pressure. Later, on the Blackfoot river, he caught another crawfish. He tried that for bait again. Big river, big fish, F&G reasoned as he bounced the bait along the bottom. Again, the bait stopped. A tug, then another. The hook was set and off went a jumbo size fish into the heavy current. The battle was deep and dogged, much as a cutthroat would give. But as 15 minutes wore into 20, F&G began to wonder. Soon a scaley side came into view a jumbo carp! Snarl, fume, cuss, glower, bluster. That beauty went 10 8-- box score: The Hollingsworth.

It was late in the day and F&G was tired. He sat with his pole loosely grasped. Suddenly, WHAM. A strike of gigantic proportions. A struggle and the line became tangled in the rocks.
