Cyprus Wallops Two Class A Teams In a contest played at Cyprus Wednesday, the Pirates downed and the next day Logan, traveled to Box Elder and defeated the northern aquad, The Pirates had the game with Logan all the way. They were never pressed, as Logan let the Pirate defense push them out to long firing range, and then hurry any shots they got.

The whole story, nevertheless, was Cyprus' strong defense and even balanced offense. This time the high scorers were Bob Grant with 15, and Wayne Thomas with 13. 54-2- 7, 49-3- 8. P.
