Although the Vikings lost to a very .good Clearfield team a week ago their fans went away with renewed dedication. As one put it, Thats the best football we've seen here for a long THEY TOOK their new first aid kit which they had equipped and were able to help some of the campers with minor problems such as bug bites, scrapes and scratches. They also took the opportunity to do a demonstration for the campers on what to do in certain emergency situations. anywhere. Fullback Grant Hepworth also ran well for the Vikes with his power style. Jeff Porter and Norm Parrish were the main receivers for Morrell when he did throw. Dart quarterback Lyn Lloyd showed he could pass the ball hitting on 50 percent of his k effort, two for scores to Keith McNally. The entire defense played well but Lance Hill and Troy Mecham were especially noteworthy. 4 time." 18-- 7 THE CLUB has had fun this summer preparing their own food storage area and emergency items.

Davis is trying to stay on top of things, although they will be looking at a lot of people on the line. Both coaches look at this game as a practice game, which it is since it is not a league encounter, with both looking at extra folks to see wholl be playing for them come region time. Both would like to win this contest but league is first in their minds. Cant convince the fans of that though. years between the two schools. VIKING ROOKIE Coach Wade Bender was pleased with the clubs effort on the hole. We made a couple of mental mistakes that cost us the game. You have to remember that with few exceptions none of these kids had any varsity experience before the game with Clearfield. Plus that was a very good team that beat us. He was especially pleased with the play of his linemen all of whom are new this season. People like Mark Vickers, Blake Cloweard, Brian Beck and Kelly Coy played well for the Vikes in their first taste of the big time. THE LINE play could very well decide the outcome of this battle with the Dart coaches still looking at various people to see just who will play there this season. Word from Kays-vill- e is that the coaches plan to use all three preseason games to get a good look at all the line people. Viewmont had their hands full last week trying to defend Cook of Clearfield and this week there is no let up as they must now center their efforts on Brent Hatch. This little senior is a speedster from the word go and hidden in this double wing formation. He can strike from just about any- where on the field as he showed the Murray team with a 60 yard TD jaunt last week. To Board Of Mrs. Charles F.

BUT BECAUSE of lack of county funds this year, much of the project will have to be delayed until next year and county road crews will do some of the preliminary work, the commissioners decided. County Surveyor Glenn Austin told the commission that the total project would cost about $38,000. Only $12,000 has SO THE commission gave the green light to do as much work as $12,000 will stretch. We can't open the budget this year and the only other choice is to wait until next year to do the majority of the work, said Commission Chairman Glen W. Flint. He noted, however, that the county road crews may be able to work some of the project into their schedule within the next few months. North America, known as AFNA, is a national organization.

At an average cost of $6,000, the thought of a shiny new automobile dwindled beyond most peoples pocketbooks in the early months of the year. High inflation and rising interest rates forced car dealers along the Wasatch Front to close their doors in recent months. But three Bountiful dealers say an upswing in the economic picture is finally stabilizing their future. come very restrictive on averages in all cars. They require that the cars get mpg figures comparable to other make cars of the same size. Mr. Willey said a lot of auto dealers lost import business in March and April because people were short of money in their households. He said sales were down then in every phase of retailing. IT WAS during this crucial period, he noted, that a few dealers in Salt Lake folded, many of whom had been in business ten and 20 years. He said since Bountiful and the surrounding communities are more big cars are selling better. A lot of people just want to take their family when they go somewhere, he said, emphasizing that the buyers arent willing to trade togetherness for good gas mileage. Asked if the big car market from Ford will decrease when the 1981 models are introduced, Mr. Willey said he didn't think so. He said Ford will continue to downsize, but added that they are coming out with big cars as well. family-oriente- MARION WILLEY general manager, Duff Willey said used cars have been selling the best, with the exception of one period when sales fell short due to prohibitive interest rates. He said he's excited for the new 1981 models to come in, adding that the American buying public is going to find new things on the domestic market. IN REFERENCE to the forecar monopoly, which has severely threatened American auto industrialists throughout the year, Mr. Willey said the Ford Corp. will continue to downsize its models as it has for the last couple of years. By Oct. 1, he said, Ford will release the Escort, a replacement for the discontinued Pinto with a body shape said to be the most popular in Europe and around the world.

NATURALLY, small cars are selling the best, he said, but the market for the bigger luxury cars is far from dead. He added that a lot of people want the room and arent willing to trade comfort for better gas mileage. In many cases, Mr. Willey mentioned, the bigger cars are getting competitive averages, far better than in recent years. And, he said, Small cars are higher priced and you can put someone into a big car for less. HE POINTED out that the federal government has be NEW BUYERS are looking for "economy and quality, he said, in their search for a car, but they are also more educated than they ever were before. To deal with this, cat dealerships are having to hire salesman equally as bright, Mr. Willey said, so that "people get a good displayt the car can do. Tony Price Chevrolet sales- man, Dennis Chamberlain, said television propaganda is the biggest enemy of the big car dealerships. He agreed with Mr. Willey that people just aren't aware that the luxury cars do get good mileage, because they dont take the time to check it out. HE BLAMED this on television and said people are programmed into believing that big and foreign and small cars dont compare. Chamberlain said that by 1985, Chevrolets biggest car will be the size of the current Malibu style. He added that to be rethe companys leased by April Is a combination of two things people are asking for now, roominess and economy. HE SAID room and economy are easy to manufacture, but style is a difficult element to add. People who want all three are often disappointed. He also said his dealership is selling the bigger cars to sales representatives who need the comfort and room in their business, and older people who are buying their last car and feel they can get what they want. BOUNTIFUL Motors representative, Mike Fotes, says the automobile market has changed considerably since the first of the year. In the last 30 days, booming, sales have been he said. As opposed to some of the other local dealerships, Mr. Fotes said the used car business hasnt slacked off any time. Since Bountiful Motors does sell the bigger cars, however, they too faced the worry of increased interest rates. MR. FOTES said people are still buying the big cars because they dont drive as much and the comfort is worth it to them. Gas isnt that big of a criteria for them," and he said, sales are again starting to improve. He agreed with the other dealers that high interest rates did slow down the business in the years first quarters. But while the finance rates increased. Fotes said the actual prices of the cars stayed about the same as in 1979. Import cars and economy cars went up in price, however. DEALERS ARENT ordering as many cars. he said, explaining that people cant be as picky" as they used to. He noted that the dealership once stocked $2 and $3 million worth of inventory because people did want more cars to look at. But with money so scarce, people are having to make choices on models they think they "can get by with," he added. |
