Show Lehi Drops Vikings Last Friday, Vikings Bye on Wednesday The Lehi Pioneers bushwhacked bushwhack-ed the Pleasant Grove Vikings 72-65 in a Region Four basketball basket-ball game payed at Lehi last Friday night. The Battle Creek boys made a game of it for the first two periods, forcing the Pioneers to be content with only a one-point one-point advantage at the end of each round. The periods ended 17-16 and 30-29, respectively for Lehi. The second half was something some-thing else again. Lehi pulled away to a 13-point lead at the end of the third canto and then held on as Pleasant Grove fought back to lower the Pioneer Pion-eer margin to seven points at the final gun. Jay Hardman, Pioneer sharpshooter sharp-shooter really sank the Viking ship. He lobbed in 10 from the field and 3 for 4 from the line for 23 points. Mike Shoell countered coun-tered for the Vikings with 21 points, which included 9 fielders field-ers and 3 for 3 from the line. Third best scorer was Dave Lind, Lehi, with 17. Pleasant Grove might have made a two-point game out of it, with a little more luck in the foul pitching department. The Vikes scored 11 out of 18 as against Lehi's 11 out of 18.
