Show Park Ruggers Suffer Losses Park City Rugby Club brings a sub-. 500 record into Saturday's Satur-day's game with Salt Lake after a disasterous stint on the road which saw them lose four games. This past weekend saw the Park Ruggers travel to Aspen, Colorado for two games with the Aspen Gentlemen. Thinned by injuries and lacking sleep from the long drive to Colorado, Park City put up a valiant fight on Saturday, losing 3- 0. Sunday turned out to be much worse. Hooker Dick Meehan suffered a twisted knee in the opening minutes of play and was unable to continue. The Aspen side sprung to the attack and pushed across five scores to win, 15-0. The four losses in a row put Park City's season record at 4- 5 going into .the match against Salt Lake on Saturday. This game should be-a real contest as each team has beaten the other this year. Park City certainly cer-tainly needs a game at home to get back on the winning track as the rubgy season picks up its pace through the late summer and fall. Lineup against Aspen: Mike Jones, Prop; Dick Meehan, Hooker; Dave Mueller, Prop; Jim Patterson, Lock; Mike Knudsen, Lock; Jeff Wallace, Number 8; Corkey Foster, Scrum Half; Jim Patten, Wing Forward; Brian Carter, Stand Off; Dale Dellamas, Centre; Ken Benson, Wing; Ron Cotler, Fullback.
