BLODGETT Sports Editor SALT LAKE CITY Skyline High Eagles soared into the Class 4-- A State Football semifinals Thursday with an easy win over the Layton High Lancers. For the Davis County grid team that won the Region One championship despite losing the last game of the season to Roy, it was a day of frustration. The Lancers didnt get on the score board until the final two nutes of the game.

Then the Lancers lost to Roy and had to struggle to defeat West Jordan in mi- lit- tle difference and Skyline was the quarterfinal winner by a score of last-plac- 24-- 6. e the playoffs.

Duties of a First Sergeant explained in humorous way ency or exercise operations. By DONETA GATHERUM While MSgt. Guest speaker at LAYTON the monthly luncheon of the Layton Chamber of Commerce was Master Sergeant David J. Tur-cott- e, the First Sergeant of the 729th Tactical Control Squadron at Hill AFB. MSgt. Turcotte told of the purpose and mission of the 729th. In an interesting and sometimes humorous way, he described the duties of a First Sergeant. The 729th Tactical Control Turcotte was speaking on Thursday, his squadron was preparing to deploy for exercises in Wendover. As the First Sergeant assigned to the 729th, MSgt.

Quarterback Troy Murray threw two long passes to the speedy wide receiver (Canterella) one to the to the 48 other and the Skyline Eagles 29. Tom Moore then ripped up the middle to the 17, and the Lancers were on the roll. After two pass incompletions, Murray faded back and then bootlegged a keeper 12 yard to the five. Murray then lofted a bulls-ey- e pass to Moore who was all alone on the two and he simply stepped into the end zone for the score. Skyline, on the other hand, took advantage of Laytons costly mistakes especially in the first half. In the first 24 minutes of play, Layton lost the ball twice on fumbles and twice on pass interceptions. Layton adjusted in the second half and played a respectable second half. But Skyline had already gone into the lockerroom at Later in the game, Widner attempted another field goal this one from 49 yards and the ball hit the cross bar and bounced onto the playing field.

Defensively, he snatched both Layton pass interceptions and ran one 53 yards to the two-yar- d line only to have it called back because of a penalty. He also intercepted a pass and ran unmolested 35 yards down the sidelines but again the play, this time a touchdown run, was nullified because of a penalty on the return.
