Show Union Captures , Pair Of Pre- ! Season Contests The Union High Cougars made it three out of four preseason pre-season wins last weekend as they trounced Pleasant Grove "day night. 36-39, and handed Moab a 32-23 the following rught. Both games werP played at Union. Coach Glen Allred still is doing do-ing a lot of experimenting with his squad that has speed to burn, but needs a . little more strength on defense especial1 y m getting the taUer men to grab the rebounds. Looking sharp oh the offense is Byrrel Lamb, the stocky little forward who hit for 15 and 17 in each of the two contests, and played a fine rustling rustl-ing game as welL Ken Nickell who is . playing his third year as a regular, and John Benson, another veteran of as many years, give Allred plenty of hustle and are strong .on defense. Johnny Perry, the 6 ft. 3 in. center, has looked impressive in spots, but must still learn how to go up on the boards and come down with the ball. He's the big hope for j a repeat performance in the . division as winners. Doyle Hu I ber and Leon Ross are battling along with Don Killian, Gordon Eldredge and Arlin Bellon for a starting spot on the Cougar Five. Again Union will be at home for a twin engagement Friday and Saturday. The first night (Friday) Spanish Fork comes to the Basin to test the Cougars, and Saturday, they are -hosts to Park City. Little Is known of the strength of either of these teams Spanish Fork plays in the Nebo district and Park City is in the Summit region: ; A preliminary game will pre cede the main affair, each night at 6:45,- with the second contest at about 8 o'clock.
