(P) Wyoming's a d-punching Cowpokes moved within shooting distance of their first Skyline Six football championship today by clattering to a 13-0 victory over Utah.

The win was doubly sweet for Coach Bowden Wyatt's rough, tough boys, for it not only gave them reasonable assurance of at least a tie for the Skyline title, but was the first they had scored over a Utah team in 45 long years. The Cowboys, who now have won six games in a row and three in conference play, can clinch a tie for the championship here next Saturday by beating last-place Brig ham Young, and that should be an easy chore. WIN IT IN FIRST HALF Hungry for the victory over the Utes for which they had waited since 1904. the Cowpokes rushed out and got it in the first half. They scored in each of the first two periods and There is no more fitting manner in which to open a sports column jlhan with a tribute to a known, local sports figure.

i It has seemed fashionable in the past few years for athletes and those connected with athletics to take two beatings whether they win or lose. 2 a beating from their opponent in the stress of competition and another beating from the pen of a writer sitting from 10 to 100 yards away. That doesnt seem rieht. 1 For a change" of fashion here is a letter tribute to one of Casper's leading; sports figures: 1602 Oak St, Abilene, Oct. 16, 1949 he Casper Tribune-Herald, Oasper, pjear Sirs Enclosing a check of $5 to cover one year's subscription to the Sunday Tribune.

We like to keep up with the fortunes of the Casper Mustangs. Would like to take this occasion to call the attention of the Sports (Editor to the enclosed newspaper clipping of a picture of our son. Bill. Bill attended Casper schools, Roosevelt, Lincoln and Casper Junior Jhigh. We attribute his present success on the football field to the early training he received in Casper from Quincy Tarter, the grade-school coach.

I Also the fine cooperation he received from Miss England, principal of I Lincoln school and Miss Nichols of Lincoln school. Wish you would call attention to the fact that the boy they helped is making good. Tribune-Herald Photo LEROY PEARCE SCAMPERS for his touchdown while four Redskins chase along behind. Ute Russell Neilson appears to raise a congratulatory arm. Don Price and Bruce War-burton, other Utah players, perform as rear guard for the TD parade.

Last season Bill was high-point player for Abilene high school, scoring a total of 35 points. This season, in six games, he has scored 36 points. This includes 12 points from placement as he has completed 12 of 17 attempted conversions. He usually plays the fullback position, sometimes alternating at left 'half, depending on the play. So if Quincy Tarter is still in Casper, would like for you to get this letter to his hands as we want him to know we appreciate his efforts in the I early training of our boy.

Former Casper residents, i Mr. and Mrs. John Calusha I A note on the picture mentioned by Mr. and Mrs. John Galusha: The cutline reads "Bill Galusha, one of the 15 reasons Abilene is expected to field one of the strongest schoolboy football teams in the i state this fall." I HABIT-FORMING Coach Bowden Wyatt's back must be plenty sore today following his Cowpokes' historic 13-0 victory over the Utah university football team something no Wyoming team has ever done before.

We like to think of Wyoming's conference wins this year as being I habit-forming, legitimate and hereafter to be expected in every grid I season. The team will now be "that-tough-one-to-beat." It looks like the Wyatt-men are heading for a Skyline Six cham- pionship. Let's hope mid-century means a reversal and more Wyoming win-column scores. Coach Bill Hileman's Casper Mustangs have scheduled a home game with the St. Mary's team of Cheyenne for next Saturday.

I MIDWEST, Oct. 22 (Special) IDespite a cold wind, a fairly large crowd was on hand here Friday Inight to watch the expected hard battle between the once-beaten Mid-Iwest Oilers and the unbeaten Lusk jTigers materialize as each team 'scored and converted in the second half to produce a 7-7 tie on an icy tfield. Thus, the Tigers carried their undefeated string through six games the Oilers added a tie to their record of five won, one lost. There is no doubt but that a dry "Ifield and secure footing would have resulted in more scoring, as both teams have exhibited powerful of-lenses and rolled up high scores in previous games.

Defense, however, was the prime factor in this game. XTJSK SCORES FIRST Lusk scored first on a pass from End Bill Kilmer to Halfback Bob Caces in the third period.

Jerry Brown, is back on the eligible list. Brown was ruled ineligible after a protest lodged before the Lander game by Lander Coach Bill Bush. Consequently, the Warriors, still unbeaten on the field of play, were made to forfeit three games to Big Horn Basin league opponents.

Oct. 22 (JP) The Michigan State Boxing commission closed one investigation today and opened another. It wrote off its inquiry into the recent ring -death of Welterweight Talmadge Bussey. It launched a probe into the Friday night fight here in which Lester Felton. young Negro welterweight, was given a questionable decision over highly-regarded Kid Gavilan of Cuba.

Floyd Stevens, commission chairman, promised a "formal inquiry" into the affair. He did not indicate, however, when it would start. Handlers of Gavilan. who chased the young Detroit Negro around the ring for 10 rounds, demanded the probe. "That was the worst decision I've seen in 30 years in the boxing game," said the Veteran Ray Arcel, one of Gaviian's handlers.

Phils, Hurt at Gate, May Cut Television PHILADELPHIA.

Oct. 22 i) The Philadelphia Phillies have made no move to renew a television contract for next season's baseball games, and the likelihood is the telecasts will be scrapped. Owner Bob Carpenter made it plain today he is not happy that his club didn't go over the 1.000.000 mark in attendance as it finished third, highest since 1917. He wouldn't commit himself on the TV situation, though. "There must be some reason why the crowds weren't bigger," Carpenter mused.

"It could have been television. Certainly there never was a more interesting Phillies' ball club to watch.
