McMahon threw four touchdown passes to three receivers, kicked a 31 yard field goal, and kicked five PAT conversions to completely destroy the Lakers homecoming and title hopes. d 45-1- 4 Bonneville begrudgingly, yielded ground but allowed the Royals inside their 10 yard line on . their initial drive where McMahon kicked a field goal. Minutes later, the Lakers fumbled on their own 12 yard line. They put up a gallant goalline defense that almost, but not quite, stopped the Royals from scoring their first T.D. Bonneville was unable to move against the big Royal line and punted. Roy took over on their own 33 yard line, and Jim McMahon went 9 to work. On the first play from scrimmage he fired long and deep and hit Fred Fernandes at full gallop, one step behind the defender. The 67 yard bomb put Roy out in front with 1 13 left in the first 17-- 0 : quarter. By now Roy had momentum and Bonneville could do little to stem the tide. McMahon struck twice more in the first half, and once in the third quarter with T.D. passes to Fernandes, Butler and Bennington. Meanwhile Bonneville managed to get a little offense of their own. Quarterback Gary Tracy hit Mike Mathieu with a 50 yard T.D. strike, and hit him on several other occasions to set up another score in the third quarter. It was too little and not enough. Kurt Bennington streaked through the entire Bonnerville defense to score the final T.D. of the day for either team. signals touchdown as Mark Kartchner end from two yards out.

In the last month, parts of Utah have been invaded with small black bears. Rodney John, big game supervisor of the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, reports that at least 24 black bear cubs have come down from their mountain ranges into or near towns in lower elevations. Its a bit of a surprise. The cubs are young and should be with the sows this time of year. We have never witnessed such regular appearances in Utah before, but we are aware thht it has happened in other reipoirtedl states, John said. He continued, Idaho has experienced similar problems in years past. Mr. John continued, The direct effect, we believe, is that the sows, without the fat reserve or perhaps even adequate nutrition for themselves, are not able or willing to suckle the cubs. They will, in situations like this, kick the cubs off and leave them on their own. Its a instinct. strong The cubs, left on their own, seem motivated to move to lower elevations, perhaps following the water courses down. Since the situation may continue to occur, people should be aware that the cubs are generally harmless if left alone. Do not attempt to capture the animal. Notify the nearest conservation officer. He will make the necessary arrangements to take the cub back to the mountains where it is best suited for survival. is race. KEVIN GEORGE 8. OcmiaiDD DAVE COY much offense to stay in the game.

Kurt Bennington (left halfback) had five tackles and one interception. Dave Coy (right halfback) made three tackles and recovered a fumble. These deep defenders played their best gamer of the year, and allowed the Lakers very little leeway in their efforts to establish a passing game after Roy surged ahead. Because of the type of defense the Royals deploy, the deep men have their hands full when pass s their area. receivers into an exhave developed They cellent defensive secondary.
