Show Utes Take Over Lead With 69-36 Cougar Win UINTAH DIVISION W L Uintah 4 0 Altamont 3 1 Union 2 2 Duchesne 1 3 Tabiona 0 4 Last Week's Results Uintah 60 - Union 36 Duchesne 57 - Tabiona 46 This Week's Schedule Union at Tabiona Duchesne at Altamont No. Sevier at Uintah (non-league) , It was rather apparent last Friday Fri-day night in the beautiful new Uintah Uin-tah High gymnasium that this isn't Union's year for basketball as the Congars succumbed to their Ute competitors from Vernal, 60-36. The first three quarters was a pretty good ball, game to watch, but that fourth and final one was an 8-minute period everyone from the Union" camp would like to forget as quickly as possible. The Cougars really fell to pieces and the Utes took advantage of their opportunity to pile up the largest score to be inflicted on a team from the' Roosevelt area in a long time. Held Eaton In Check The Cougars held the Utes' ace, Valoy Eaton, pretty well in check most of the ball game, especially the last half when he collected only on-ly one field goal and two foul shots before leaving the game for excessive fouling. Larry Ross and Clayton Huber were assigned to watch Eaton, who made 11 points the first half and four the second for 15 points. Wayne Pope is the fair-haired kid who wrecked Union in the last quarter as he contin-ue'ously contin-ue'ously went in for set-ups. His total was 13 for the night, most of them coming in the final quarter. Huber, Gordon Bascom and Jackie Bailey were the leading scorers for Union. Duchesne Beats Tabby Tabiona has the' cellar spot all to themselves this week after dropping a 57-46 tilt to the Eagles at Tabiona. This week the Cougars travel to Tabiona for the' first round of the second half of the league schedule, while Altamont will be entertaining Duchesne. Uintah will draw a bye, but has a practice game lined up with Salina, who plays under the name of North Sevier.
