Bulldogs Win
200 Victory Over
Scooba AT Goodman
by r. w. Almond

The Bulldogs of Holmes made
a great stand Thursday night
against the East Mississippi team
from Scooba, taking over at their
3 yard line in the closing minute
of play. East Miss. had advanced
from mid field on two long well
executed passes from G.. Sanford
to Bill Vaughn. Holmes scored
their first touchdown early in the
second period when Paul Spa
kowski passed to Laurin Pepper
from his own 40 to mid-field.
Pepper scored standing, with the
play netting so yards. Spakow-
ski place-kicked the point and
Holmes was on their way to vic
tory No. S.
Late in the second period Paul
Spakowski passed to Joe Silverii
in the left flat for is yards at the
20 and he went over without being
touched. Spakowski's placement
was good - and the half was
over following the kickoff to East
Miss. with Holmes leading l4-0
at the rest period.
The third quarter was an even
Stephen affair without either
team penetrating very close to the
others goal line. Holmes took
over on downs early in the fourth
period and marched some Sd yards
to the East Miss. 4 from where
Neil Hay, former Treadwell star
went through center of line to
register the final touch down of
the night. The pass from center
was low and Spakowski had no
chance to convert.
The Holmes defense was at its
best - the regular backs with
the assistance of Gerald Vaughn,
Frank Horn, and Walter Owens
kept the East Miss air and ground
game bottled-up most of the time.
In the first three periods the Wis
! itors tried IA passes with only 2
compilations.

Monday afternoon we took the

pointed out the fora of the area,
Indian legends and other interest

growing in great profusion in the
stream, but were warned against
picking any saying that it might
cost about $500.00 per sandwich.
Here we saw a species of reed,
called Horse Tail reed growing
several feet high. This reed is grit
ty, like sandpaper, since it carries
a large amount of silica in the
stem. 1t was used by the early
Mormon housewives to scour pots
and pans. Following this we went
back to camp, cooked our dinner,
attended a lecture on the geology
of the park, and back to camp and
a long restful sleep.
Tuesday, Bill was not feeling

feet in the cool water of Virgin

Wednesday, Bill had recovered
enough to make our trip to Bryce
Canyon possible. Having heard ru.
mors that camping facilities al
Bryce were below par (subsequent
ly proved false) and since we were
all in love with Zion, we decided
to leave our camp standing anC
return there in the evening.
Incidentally, Cana made a list o.
all the states and checked off thu
licenses on the cars as we travel

Breakfast of bacon, eggs, fruit,

After washing dishes and spruc-
ing up the camp we were off on a
sightseeing trip. Zion, we were
told by the ranger, has been form
ed by the eroding action of the
Virgin River through millions of
years, cutting it's way through the
sandstone plateau over which it
ran in prehistoric eras. Many mill
lions of years ago, so the geolo-
gists say, the whole area of Ari-
zone and southern Utah was at
sea-leYel. Great sand dunes, many
more than 1000 feet high were
formed along the shore of a great
salt water sea. The era changed,
marked by land rising through
great internal essures,
changing the sand dunes into sand
stone, with a mixture of iron ore.
These in the following ages of
weathering formed the beautiful
pink cliffs, interspersed with gran
ite rock which has retained it's
whiteness. Ages passed away with
the river eating it's way through
the sandstone rock, carrying year
ly, even today, it's yearly burden
of millions of tons of sand and
pebbles and rock down into the
valley below. Rain and frost, also
have been, and are, at work wild
ening the channel created by the
river. Water trickles down into
faults in the rock causing great
slides to fall away from the face
of the sheer cliffs. The latest great
slide in the park occurred in 1880.
A Mormon settler who had farm
in Zion returned home one day to
find his corn field buried under a
great mass of rock and rubble
leaving an arc far up the face OF
, the cliff. Now on the top of the
slide fir and pine trees grow.
The. Great White Throne, Angels
Landing, The Court of the Patri-
archs, The Watchman, The Great
Organ, Mount Majestic and Gable
Mountain seem like fanciful names
to one who hasn't seen Zion. But
once seen one is thrilled with the
awe inspiring majesty Of tt c
scene. The Empire State Building
with a six-story pent house would
still snuggle under the brow OF
the cliffs. Once seen we can un-
derstand why the Mormons called
it Zion. Then, too, there is The
Temple of Sinevava where the In

about 20 miles off our route. After
a long climb to 1O,S97 feet eleva-
tion, we arrived at the park only
to be confronted with an eight
foot snow drift. After taking pic
lures of the drift, to prove our
story, we about faced and headed
for Zion National Park. At this
elevation the vegetation was of our
April variety. Trees in tiny leaf,
grass a pastel shade of green, and
chill tinge to the whole country
side. Passing through small towns
and admiring the scenery we ar
rived at Zion at 4:00 p. m. We
drove around and through the
camp site, furnished by the park
authorities, we ceased the joint
picking a place near a water fau-
Get and not too far from the rest
rooms, a fiat area hemmed in by
towering cliffs in shades of yellow,
white and brown set off by the ev-
ergreen trees clinging precarious-
ly to the sides. While Bill and
were novices, / more than he, at
setting up tents, ETC., we soon had
tents up securely, cots and sleep
ing bags in place and gasoline
camp stove assembled. Cana and
Bill took the double bed; Clara and
I the double sleeping bag with the
air mattress and Stevie's and
Marks sleeping bag placed in the
pup tent. Incidentally, the double
sleeping bag with the air mattress,

any inner-spring affair. Soon we
cooked our cube steaks, potatoes

coffee and ate our fill.

one hundred miles to the south.
Again we climbed the mountain ov-
er the zigzag road, through Mt.
Carmel Tunnel and took our last
look at the breath-taking view of
Zion far below and at the Great
Arch of Zion on the opposite side
of the mountain. A part of this
trail was over the same road which
we had taken to Bryce National
Park, turning off Route 81 to Route
SO at their junction. Here new
countryside came into view, vary
ing from excellent farming lano
cattle and sheep (by the thousands)
to desert-like expanses with scrub

landscape. On south through Ka-

sufficient space to park several
cars OF the road. Here we had a
rich view of the valley below with
the Great Arch of Zion showing in
the face of the opposite mountain.
We learned that in building the
tunnel scaffol6ing was erected up
the perpendicular face of the cliff
and the tunnel was bored, starting
in the middle and working out both
ways.
Passing through the tunnel more
gorgeous scenery met our eyes at
every turn in the road. Checker
hboard Mountain, its gray steeply
sloping side marked by nature into
squares. Red Canyon with it's steep
sides of pink and red sandstone and
distant views adding a mysterious
glamor to the scene.
Mark, who is very much interest
ed in machinery, spied massive
road building equipment in sever
al places where roads were being
Strengthened. So while the adults
looked at the scenery, Mark saw
the "shenery."
