Fabulous Ken Jones and the Tiger crew wasted no time in lead, and taking a although the first period was low in scoring it afforded fans some exciting moments. The game was two minutes old before Wade Coleman finally dropped in a bucket for Kanab's first score, but Jones scored eight points and the rest of his team hit six to put on a 14-lead at the first break. Kanab was playing a zone defense with Kris Glover permanently on Jones, while n the Tigers were in a defense. The Cowboys came back in the second quarter and tied the game up at 0 with 3:30 on the clock. The Pokes could have gained an impressive lead had their foul shooting been more respectable. They hit only 3 of 10 during the second period. However, as it was Ben Johnson led the Cow bos with 10 points to a intermission advantage. The third period was another disastrous one for Kanab when the Tigers outdone them 14-- 6 with Jones potting 10 counters. Kanab opened the second half with two field goals by Johnson and Coleman and claimed a lead, much to the joy of the partisan crowd. Whitney of Milford hit a bucket and Mike Skaggs countered with a then the bottom fell out and Jones hit ten straight points to give the with 45 Tigers the lead seconds in the third period. Then Atkin added another two lead pointer to take a going into the final eight minutes, and the stage was set for a real barn burner.

In many areas of the state, individuals are removing snow from their private driveways and approaches and placing it on the highway This activity, according to the UDOTs policy on snow removal from state highways, is illegal, not to mention a dangerous practice which could lead to serious conseright-of-wa- quences to unsuspecting motorists using the highway. UDOT policy states that the removal of snow by State forces, except in emergencies, shall be confined to the limits of the highway The policy goes on to state: Removal of the normal snowfall and windrows on private road approaches, both on and off the highway right-of-wa- is a responsibili- right-of-wa- ty of the property owner.... and when clearing these approaches, the property owner shall not push or pile the snow onto the State roadway. In areas where curb and gutter exist, the normal parking area off the travel lane may be used for snow storage, but If it is desired to move the snow, it will be the responsibility of the city, 52-5- A A.
