With Crouch still at quarterback, the Lions moved the ball to Paysons 17 on runs by Etherington and Daley but on fourth down a high pass from center went over Crouchs head, while attempting a punt and went out of the end zone for a safety. The Lions now led 18-- 2. With a kickoff short and the ball on the Lehi 44 the Pioneers started to drive with the aid 6f penalties on the Lions. A pass interference call on Payson moved the ball to the Payson 40. A quick pass to fullback Scott Hadfield gained 1 yard and halfback Wes Innes got to the Payson 33. Cooper then ran to the 30 for a first down. John Worthen then broke loose for 8 yards down to the 22 and Innes carried for 2 more for another first down at the Payson 20. The Lions, being back to the wall had to bear down and after Worthen made a fine gain to the 13 the defense got tough and held at the 11. The Lions got out of the hole on a 3 yard run by Donnie Olson and Mike Daley bulldozed his way for 16 yards out to the 30. The Lions running attack gained steadily on Etherington, Olson and Daley and as the third quarter ended the Lions had the ball on their 48. The running continued in the fourth quarter as two runs by Daley moved the ball to the 30 and two runs by Tim Durrant went to the 17. The Lions were by no means content to sit on their 18-- 2 lead and so two plays later Mike Daley broke 14 yards through the right side of the Pioneer line for another touchdown with nine minutes left in the game. The extra point kick again was faked and Jim Durrant rolled around the right side and was hit hard at the goal line but chugged his way in for a 2 point conversion and Payson by Gary Warren The Payson Lions clinched a berth in the Class A State Playoff Tournament by defeating the Lehi Pioneers, Wednes- day. The Lions won 32-- 2. It was homecoming day, at Payson and the Lions wanted to treat the Payson fans to a big homecoming victory. The weather was cold, windy and very cloudy but the teams were ready to go and the game started with both of the teams, especially the defense, very fired up. Payson's Scott Wilson kicked off to Eric Chamberlain of the Pioneers who returned to the Lehi 30. Ron Ellison, a junior, started the game at quarterback for the Pioneers but his offensive team was stalled from the beginning when the Payson defense gave up only 7 yards in the, first 3 downs, on a pass from Ellison to the 37 yard line. The punt was taken on the Payson 44 and the offense of the Lions went to work. The Lions with Joel Crouch at quarterback ran Mark Etherington to the 49 but Donnie Olson followed with a fumble back on the 47 that Mike Daley recovered. Third down brought another fumble on the snap from center and Nick Webb of the Pioneers recovered. Wes Innes and halfback John Worthen, a 150 pound senior, moved the ball to the a squibb Payson 36 and then punted kick out on the Lion 25, The Lions now mounted their first scoring drive as halfback Mark Etherington moved around left end for 17 yards to the 42. Gary Weight then moved the ball to the 45 and Etherington got another 17 on the nevt carry to put the ball on the Lehi 38. Gary Weight on first down broke loose through the right side of the Pioneer line and went clear to the 3 before being dropped. Joel Crouch tried a quarterback keep next and went in for the score with 5:22 left in the first quarter. Craig Haskells kick for extra point was blocked and Payson took a 0 lead. Scott Wilsons kickoff was taken by Eric Chamberlain who was cut down on a fine tackle by Tim Durrant on the Pioneer 21. Worthen ran for 4 yards and a grabbing of the face mask penalty against Payson put the ball on the 38 for a first down. The free wheeling of the Pioneers ended quickly though because the Lion defense stopped the Pioneers on the 6-- Lehi 43. The punt by Lehi went out of bounds on the Payson 44. On the first play Mike Daley, the Lion fullback, took the ball from Crouch and tacklers for 56 galloped over would-b- e yards and another touchdown with 2:25 left in the first quarter. Haskells kick missed to the right and the score stood Payson 12-- 0, After the kickoff was returned to the Lehi 20 as the first quarter ended, the Pioneers on running by Ron Ellison Paul Fowler and new quarterback Kim Cooper moved the ball to the Payson 49 but a key tackle by Kevin Barnett on Paul Fowler for a lyard loss and an incomplete pass to Chamberlain forced Lehi to kick again and Brad Olson returned the ball to the Payson 15 in the second quarter. The homecoming day turned out to be quite a day for Mike Daley as he, Mark Etherington and Donnie Olson made 4 downs and moved the ball to the Lehi 27 on the next drive. From the 27 Chad Smith picked up 8 to put the ball on the 19. Joel Crouch then hit big Terry Carter with a pass to the 1 yard line and Crouch scored again on a keeper. The extra point kick was faked but a pass to Carter for a two point conversion was incomplete and Payson led 18-- 0 as the half ended. As the third quarter opened Lehi kicked to Payson by the Lions goal in the left ' chances were doomed. Payson went to work quickly for one more score before the final gun sounded as Crouch going all the way at quarterback threw a pass to Donnie Olson on the left side complete down to the 1 and Tim Durrant took the ball in for the final score with 19 seconds left. Kay Riley attempted to kick the extra point but it was blocked and Payson had left. Wilsons kickoff wobbled to the Lehi 36 where Del Willis of the Pioneers fell on the ball alter fumbling. On the last play of the game Cooper gave to Worthen who handed the ball to Terry Golding who was promptly dropped as the ball game ended. Payson was victorious with a big homecoming victory 32-- 2. The win left Payson 1 game back of American Fork for the region crown and cinched a quarterfinal game in the Class A. Tournament with either the Dixie Flyers or the Delta Rabbits. Observe rules Law enforcement officials of the Utah Division of Fish and Game urge all deer hunters going afield this Saturday to observe the rules governing the deer hunt and respect the rights of others. Each year during the deer hunt, several arrests are made for violations of the deer proclamation. Laws most frequently violated are: carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle, failure to tag deer, failure to validate the tag by cutting out the proper dates and sex, and improper use of license or permit Game officials also remind deer hunters that the black bear is not legal game during the deer hunt. The entire state is closed to bear hunting from October 16, 1970 to April 15, 1971. Ignorance of the law is no excuse, and hunters are advised to become familiar with the proclamation before starting their hunt. - , . Hunting accidents Accidents involving deer hunters are generally caused by carelessness or failure to observe the laws governing the hunt. Each hunter has the responsibility to make sure of his target before he shoots, and to be sure that he is properly attired himself with the prescribed red or yellow clothing and headgear. Accidents involving hunters are reason enough for added caution during the hunt, but the accidental killing of elk during the deer hunt also indicates the need for proper identification of the target. An estimated 200 elk are killed annually during the deer hunt. This waste of game could be eliminated if the hunter was sure of his target before he shot. Deer hunters hunting on buck only units should make sure that the animal they shoot at is a legal buck. Does killed by mistake are usually wasted and the productivity of the herd is reduced. led 26-- 2. The kickoff was taken by Kim Cooper who was knocked out on the 24 of Lehi. With time running out on the Pioneers, Cooper desperately tried to mount a scoring drive calling on his halfback John Worthen who drove the ball on runs for 2 first downs to the Lehi 47. While Coach Jim Durrant shuffled the Lion players in and out giving all his men a chance to play the Pioneers continued to drive on runs by Worthen down to the 35 of Payson. But on fourth and long yardage a quick pass to Scott Hadfield was complete for only one yard to the 34 and the Lions took over. A 15 yard penalty and Crouch being dropped trying to piss put the ball on the Payson 8 and on fourth down Crouch kicked to Cooper on the Payson 45 but trying to get running room Cooper was dumped 10 yards back on the Lehi 45 by Tim Lafferty. Clipping was also called on Lehi and the Pioneers had first down late in the fourth quarter on their 30 yard line. Cooper, trying to rally his team, was intercepted on a sideline pass by Etherington who went out on the 25 and Lehis CLASS AA ' WEDNESDAYS RESULTS American Fork 27 Pleasant Grove 0 Orem 27 Uintah 0 Spanish Fork 8 Provo 7 Springville 27 Carbon 0 Payson 32 Lehi 2 NEXT WEEKS GAMES (Thursday) Pleasant Grove at Uintah Orem at Lehi American Fork at Carbon (night) Spanish Fork at Payson Springville at Provo Respect property A spokesman for the Utah Division of Fish and Game cautions all hunters to respect the land where they hunt. Littering, destruction of fences, buildings or other improvements, and indiscriminate use of vehicles can result in lands being closed to public access. Hunters should obtain permission before entering private property. Land ownership can be determined by checking the records at the County Clerks office. Lands posted to no trespassing should be respected, and state and federal areas that are closed to hunting should also be observed. The sportsman is the loser if lands are closed to access, so hunters should respect all lands. Your stake in the future depends on your actions today. i X THE someone know where you are Let 7 CHRONICLE Guns for hunting Tell someone where you are hunting before you leave for the hills. This message from law enforcement officials is prompted by the fact that each year they receive several requests to locate hunters for emergency messages. No one knows when an emergency will arise at home and knowing the approximate area a person is hunting in makes the job of locating him easier for law enforcement personnel.

A story of a walnut tree by Alberta C. Ferre In the spring of 1851 Benjamin F. Johnson settled on the banks of Summit Creed, in the southend of Utah County. He built a home and planted an orchard and according to all information that we can find it was at this time that he planted the walnut tree now standing on the J.H. Kay lot. This property was located in the block north of the fort which was on the Northwest corner of the block upon which the school now stands. Ben Johnson has this to say in a letter dated December 27, 1851: Our members though few are comfortably provided for with homes and supplies for the winter. Seven houses and twelve men compose our town which we call Summit City." By April 1, 1852 the settlement consisted of the following families that we have record of: Ben F. Johnson, Jonathan S. Page, Able Butterfield and James S. Holman. Everything went well with them until the summer of 1853 when the Walker War broke out in which T.F. Tindrel was killed. On July 24, 1853 John Berry and Clark Roberts while carrying mail and express from Salt Lake were fired upon and wounded near here by unfriendly Indians. The settlers located on Summit happened last weak when Mr. Harold North and his wife and boy from Harbor Gty, Calif, were traveling north on the highway south of Santaquin. A large semi-truc- k traveling south passed the North car and some unknown object passed through the windshield hitting Mr. North just missing his wife and boy and on out the back window. It left a six to eight inch hole in the windshield and broke out the back window completely A strange accident 20 gun buffs a German class. He is sporterizing Mauser military rifle, converting it from a military arm to a sport rifle which he will use in the coming hunt. According to Gene Nelson, veteran gunsmith and instructor at Utah Technical College at Provo, men who take the beginning and advanced classes learn to do practically everything that can be done with a rifle, including repairs, remodeling, adapting to various uses and virtual rebuilding. Most are gun hobbyists, but some are actually preparing to earn their livelihood as gunsmiths and plan to open shops as professionals in the field, said Mr. Nelson. With the interest in guns and hunting which characterizes Utah, it is a profitable field, the instructor said. Anyone interested may inquire at the school to enter the classes at the beginning of the winter quarter. The fall quarter is nearing its halfway mark, with about six weeks to go. ar Hilights from Goshen Phofl Mrs. Eva Cook Dinner guests last Saturday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bee Jasperson were their Mr. and Mrs. daughter and Robert Crews, and three sons; Mrs. Annie Crews, Mrs. Josephine Lux and Mrs. Eva Cook.

This tree was dedicated and a marker placed on it September 11, 1941 by the Camp Summit DUP. Captain Chasta Johnson presided and conducted. County officers Edith M. Powell and Ruth Brockbank were present. Isiah Holladay gave the dedicatory prayer. A splendid program was given under the shade of the tree and lunch was served to all present. This was and is the oldest tree planted in Santaquin and the only one still standing that Benjamin Johnson planted. The following poem was written for the dedication of the walnut tree. Composed by Alberta C. Ferre Ninety years ago, Ben Johnsonplantedyou A seedling small Hoping it would not be in vain He nurtured you with loving care Without a thought of reaping any gain. You were a walnut, slowest growing tree ! of aU He knew that he would never live To see you grow so beautiful and talk It seems he might have had this to say: 1 will leave something fine behind me -I may not pass again this way." And then the hated red men came With destruction and with hate, But somehow they left you standing Perhaps for a better fate. Then John and Mahalia came And made their home near by. She watered you with loving care, She would not let you die. Like birds within your branches They built their cozy nest. It was then considered very fine, This home out in the west. Now the little house is small and old But mighty and straight you stand. The ones who love you first have all on passed As youve grown more tall and grand. How long since the little house was new And grandma was young and fair That was the time her children played In the shade of your branches there. Grandma worked hard in those bygone - !' days, She knit and wove and spun She cooked and mended every day, Her work was never done. But in the summer evening She sat beneath your sahde And rocked a baby at her breast While she watched the twilight fade. She often dreamed of her childhood And of her home so far away, Of the long and terrible journey She made across the plain. In the kindly shade of your branches She lived her life complete. This place became a haven For her loved ones wandering feet. Her children were given in marriage. Death called one darling away, Leaving heartbreak and sorrow For many a lonely day. But Grandma, serene and lovely, Pursued her kindly way. t)h mighty monarch, grand and graceful Help us our stumbling course to steer. We pray for courage to go on as you have, Giving and growing year by year. May the snows lay gentle on you bosom And may the winds be kind and lovely as her tears, May you stand forever a monument To those brave Valiant Utah Pioneers. d 274-330- 2 dipping of chocolates were demonstrated by Sister Madge Thompson.

Johnson was again active and took steps to resettle on this creek. In lprc the actual resettling took rnn were Benjamin place. The F. Johnson, V. Maxwell, William ' Goddard, James s. George W. Johnson, Able Butterfit. ager and Eli Openshaw, William Head, George, William V., and Joseph Black, Issac Morley, James Rister, George D. Wilson, Thomas Morgan, David LeBaron, Charles Montrose, John Thomas, Issac Mathews, Albert Sherman, William Dowdell, John Holman, Joseph Ahlin, M. Rowe, Robert Collit and Joseph McFate. They found the original buildings destroyed by the Indians; therefore their first step was the building of the fort which was located on the northwest corner of the block where the school now stands. This fort was well arranged and enclosed all of the houses at that time. The plan of the fort was furnished by architect T.O. Angel as designed by President Brigham Young who pointed out the site of its location. The people witnessed many sad times caused chiefly by the Indians. On one occasion Able Butterfield, his daughter, Evelyn and an Indian boy named Charley, whom he had raised, were irrigating a patch of corn. The Indians surrounded the field and began closing in on them. Their situation was very desperate when Mr. Butterfield began to yell. He had such a strong voice that the Indians became frightened and ran away, afterwards saying that the ground shook under their feet. In 1859 Benjamin Johnson moved to Spring Lake and sold his property to Mart Taylor. Isiah H. Holladay gives us the following history of the walnut tree: quote when I was about six years old, my parents, John D. Holladay and Mahalia Matthews Holla-da- y, moved to Santaquin. This was about 1864. They bought Mart Taylors place for $1,000. The walnut tree was a large tree and bearing, which according to our knowledge would be about twelve or fourteen years old. There was an orchard on the lot bearing fruit which was quite a luxury then. It had been planted by Benjamin Johnson in 1852. Six children were born on this place to the Holladays, making a total of 12 children born to Mahalia Holladay. They all lived to marry and have children with the exception of one. We all played under the shade of this tree, climbing the tree, swinging on it and eating the walnuts from it. Children came from all over town to get walnuts and were never turned away. Its branches shaded us by day and protected our beds at night. Many times when we had large crowds to feed, our table was spread under the tree. All of the grandchildren went down to grandmothers for their winters supply of walnuts to put in their molasses candy. Mahalia Holladay lived on this place about 50 years or until her death on March 14, 1916." John Clark took possession of the lot at that time and sold it the following year to Thomas Chatwin, who sold it to William A. Chatwin. In 1927 Jessie E. Ferguson and his wife, Grace McKay, bought the lot and built a house on it under the tree which is now very large and overshadows the house. After Mr. Fergusons death or about March 15, 1930, J.H. Kay and his wife, Marie Peterson Kay, bought the property which is now in their possession. Mr. Kay has spent a great deal of time on the beautification of the lot and has indeed made a lovely setting for the giant tree. We the descendants of the pioneers that first owned the place are very thankful that the old home has fallen into such kindly hands. I wish to thank all who have contributed in any way on this history and PAYSON Thursday, October 15, 1970 Mr. and Mrs. Eugene (Verla) Beck of Haywood, Calif, attended conference in Salt Lake City last weekend.

Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Palmer and son, Vicious quacks Of all the ghouls who feed on the bodies of the dying, the cancer quacks are the most vicious and the most heartless, stated Dr. Milo C. Moody and Mrs. Helen Hawkins, chairmen of the South Utah County cancer drive. Most cancer patients can be cured if treated properly and in time. Lives can be saved by early diagnosis of the cancer and by prompt treatment with proven methods of surgery, radiation and in some cases combinations of these and chemo- therapy. Time is very important. Reliance on an unproven product or method promoted by the cancer quack steals away the precious time. The patient pays far more than wasted money; he may pay with life itself. lf million cured Almost one and cancer patients live in the United States today. Yet many cancer patients still fear needlessly that their cancer is incurable. Others believe they have cancer, when in truth they do not have the disease. These persons are easy for a quack to cure. What is a quack? Dictionaries define a one who boasts to have a quack as knowledge of wonderful remedies; an imposter in medicine." So a quack is a person who boasts of medical skills he does not possess. one-ha- ESCHAROTICS Escharotics are corrosive or caustic agents, usually salves, poultices, plasters etc. Some charlatans have claimed that their escharotic remedy would draw out cancers sometimes roots and all. The usual result of escharotics in the hands of a quack is incomplete removal and recurrence of an external cancer, plus needless scarring and disfigurement. VACCINE In the summer of ticles reported that 1965 newspaper ar- vaccine for cancer had been developed by the Rand Development Corporation of Cleveland. Influenced by the publicity, some cancer victims and their families asked their personal physicians to use the vaccine. The Cleveland Academy of Medicine investigated the situation. The Academy warned that experiments being conducted with the Rand cancer vaccine could not be expected to demonstrate its efficiency and that it would be unethical for Academy to use the Rand mamembers-physiciaterial on new patients until it had been proven. Interstate distribution of the vaccine had been made despite the fact that no new drug application for it had been a ns submitted to the federal government, as required by law. The Federal Food and Drug Administration sought an injunction. After a nine-da- y trial a U.S. District Court judge granted the injunction halting distribution of the vaccine, in his opinion, the judge stressed, that not only had Rand failed to conform with the law on new drugs, but also that the publicity given to the vaccine had been encouraged or condoned by the developers to help boost the market value of the companys stock. GOV'T AND MEDICAL PROFESSION The medical profession is searching constantly, under both private and governmental programs, for better treatments for cancer patients besides their concern for their patients, physicians have cancers themselves and members of their families have cancers. They would use without hesitation a product or treatment that has a scientifically demonstrated value, but they are aware of the many spurious claims made for unproven treatments. The public can help prevent cancer quackery. Persons should report instances of quackery to their personal physician to the proper legal authorities. Or to the American Medical Associations Department of Investigation, 535 NorthDearborn St., Chicago, Illinois 60610. Shane, have moved from Elberta to Glendale to make their home.
