Show Duchesne And Vernal Stay On Top In Basin Basketball Race; Roosevelt 'B' Team Remains Unbeaten The Roosevelt Rough Riders stayed on the heels of the leading lead-ing Duchesne Eagles and the Vernal Utes last week as they trounced a visiting Tabiona five in the Roosevelt elementary gym, while Duchesne was handing hand-ing Altamont their worst licking lick-ing this season, and Vernal squeaked by a determined Al-terra Al-terra team at Alterra. , The Ute-Spartan game at Alterra Al-terra was really the ball game of the week. Not given a chance to stay in the dust of the high-galloping high-galloping Utes from Vernal, those Spartans turned on the pressure Friday night and at the end of the third quarter were out front, but weakened a bit in the last stanza, allowing the towering lads from Uintah high school to overcome the 3-point deficit and escape with a 29-25 victory to remain in the tie for first with Duchesne. With their convincing 48-16 defeat of Altamont at Mt. Emmons, Em-mons, the Eagles are given a 50-50 chance to remain the only unbeaten team in the league when they meet the Utes at Vernal this week-end. With Broadhead, Harris and Brady hitting for 15, 11 and 9 points, respectively, the Eagles ran up a 27-4 score on the Long-horns Long-horns in the first half. They lead 38-10 at the third quarter. Both coaches substituted freely in the contest. His keen ability at the free throw line, where he made 9 out of 11, and hitting three from the field, gave Franklin Peter- son high scoring honors in the Roosevelt-Tabiona game. He did this in three quarters, as he was ejected at the close of the third period for excessive fouling. Scott Nickell and Gingell sunk some sensational shots to keep the fans in an interested frame of mind. For Tabiona, Moon and D. Defa were the most consistent performers. The Roosevelt "B" team won their third victory in a row Friday, as they routed the Tabiona Tab-iona five 52-20. Lamb and Hut-chings Hut-chings lead the attack with 13 and 12 points each. The week before the "B" boys beat Altamont Alta-mont 32-15. The first week they beat Duchesne 41-21.
