Im pleased with the win, but we made a lot of mistakes, Piaga said post game. We knew Bonneville was tough. We decided early we would hit them with everything we had from start to finish. 14-- 6 Our defense was sterling. Their pursuit throughout the game kept Bonneville off balance. Weve got to work on our pass defense and our defensing punt and kickoff runbacks Both were obvious weaknesses today. Were looking forward to meeting No. Viewmont. Coach (Steve) Dangerfield was my assistant several years ago. Im certain he has a fine team, Piaga concluded. But just when it looked like the Davis County Kids were out of it they came back. With Steve Anderson and Greg Day doing most of the pigskin toting, the Vikes started a dnve of their own late in the third quarter. And some people call these guys apes? And when you look at the hairy apes who haunt our city jungles, who tie up old ladies and steal their life earnings as they did recently in Salt Lake City, or who inhabit the abandoned shacks and call it freedom of soul, one must concede football is a good route to take after all. A note in the NCAA bulletin tells about a hairy football team at Yale. After giving up 408 yards to Brown, the middle linemen appeared for Monday practice wearing crew cuts. They went 72 yards to paydirt m 11 plays with Day going the final yard for the Yale line held Columbia to Tbf result was effective yards next game whereon it ws suggested all linemen cut the curls. But one wingman wailed against it on grounds he had contract. a touchdown with 56 seconds left in the quarter. A roifip by Anderson on a e situation and a facemaskmg penalty on Provo helped keep the dnve alive. 121 fourth-and-thre- Beavers, Braves, Cats, Bucks win By Lee Benson Deseret News sports writer Fudays through Moving ; . , an extra point to take the But a bobbled snap lead stilled that effort Had the game ended tied North Summit led m yardage by almost 200 yards But Stevens scored with just a minute remaining to cancel the deadlock. v preliminary bouts like so much necessary paper-worBeaver and North Summit High Schools have set up their 6-- semi-fina- l classic expected m Class conirontation football tournament. and Beavers The Beaver 53, Duchesne 0 Braves, A1 Marshall, Beavers highly successful is well coach, known around Region Eight extreme for either the understatement or the vast exaggeration. e comFriday his ment was Well, we lucked out. .same two clubs that met in last years state championship . game, will meet next weekend at a site yet to be determined by the flip of a com.

Such a one was Ken (The Hawk) Harreson, famous baseball slugger. Ken has tned three times to qualify for the PGA golf tour. At Pmehurst, N.C., Harrelson opened with an 81 m the fmal examination rounds. He came up with 305 total which was 13 strokes out of the blue-car- d bracket. Harrelson has shot some impressive golf and knows he can cut it as far as the ordinary rounds go. But under qualifying pressure he cant put his best golf on the control offense without in the first three In the fourth stanza, that changed. The Bulldogs fumbled early in the quarter and Viking Lynn Freestone jumped on the ball on the Provo 22. grounds. On one stretch in his home town of Savannah Hawk was 22 under par. Those are the times golfers remember best, of course, and which lead guys like Ken Harrelson to believe he can cut it. Four plays bier Day carried it across from eight yards for his third TD of the le game, and Kim Nelson booted the PAT. That made it for the Vikes with 9 55 left. 4 Well, hes back on the bench again for a third time, wondering, as he admits, if he should ever have quit baseball.
