But he wasnt the best, Saturday, at Falcon Field. Larry R Read passed for three touchdowns and a conversion to nail down the Clearfield victory. His favorite target was big tight end, Roger Vincent, who caught passes for 10 and 15 yards to score, and he also lofted a ten yarder to Doug Hamblin for six points. Mike Arrant was his target for the two-poiconversion. The Idaho crew looked bigger than the Falcons, especially with that 68 250 pound tackle anchoring their line, but Clearfield executed well, and played rugged defense to cut them down to size.

Name has been withheld. Ed.) I am writing this letter to clear my conscience, not because I have broken the law, but because I lied to one of your officers. On Saturday, Aug. 26, I saw three does and one buck on the road. It was 8:30 p.m. and since I didnt know what time sunset was, I shot an arrow at the buck. When a wildlife officer inspected me later I had the proper permits and licenses. He told me that hunting was perhour after mitted for only one-hasunset, which I knew; but being scared, I told him that I thought it was until dark. This has nagged me ever since, and I must clear my conscience.

Each coach was asked to disqualify his own team, and list the top three finishers in the league. Layton got the nod for the top spot, followed by Bountiful and Roy in that order. The Lancers received five votes for first place, and two for second. Bountiful cornered two first place votes, and three for second place. Roy got the only other first place nod, and received a second place and two third place votes. Bonneville got one second place, and five third place votes.

BOUNTIFUL : (Coach Paul Waite) We have nothing back," lamented the Braves coach. Our quarter back was hurt in baseball and wont see action for a few more weeks, so we are starting from scratch.
