Skyhawk Coach Adapts New Formation Fox River Refuge in Johnsburg Sophs Beat North As Team Loses To North Boone The Johnsburg Skyhawks, ,who have been roaming the cellar of the Shark Conference and hoping to field a completely healthy team, were forced into a strange position last week. Because of the injuries that contihufe to destroy the Skyhawk season, Coach Mike vfleimerdinger adapted a new formation. The double slot formation was picked basically because of the lack of halfback Bill Hovseth. The double slot formation puts one runner in the back field and four eligible receivers on the line of scrimmage. According to Heimerdinger this formation would allow for several passes and „ it can be very difficult to cover. North Boone took the opening kickoff and fumbled the ball on their first offensive play. After recovering the fumble, Johnsburg put together a very impressive drive and drov^ the ball down to the Viking one yard line, but couldn't place it in the end zone. The first quarter was an exchange of power as the two teams out- defensed each other to keep the game scoreless. A second quarter drive by the Vikings gave a quick touch down and a 7-0 lead. Johnsburg couldn't quite get their offense generating and trailed at the half time, 14-0. North Boone picked up a couple more touchdowns in the third quarter, one off of a fantastic punt by Jake Breit and the other off of a 35 yard pass for a 27-0 lead. North Boone added a field goal in the fourth quarter and rounded out the final score 30-0. This wasv the Skyhawk's fourth defeat "to no wins. However, Coach Heimerdinger is pleased with this week's performance. He feels the team played well and this new for mation should work. Scott Valentin, quarterback, was 11 of 20 for 97 yards in the passing department. Valentin also suffered a slight con cussion, but he is expected to be ready again for action this Friday. Wisconsin Closed To Hunting In 1979 Boone 15-0 For 2-2 Record j A 641-acre parcel of the Fox River National Wildlife Refuge in Marquette County Wisconsin will be closed to hunting throughout the 1979 season, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) announced today. The parcel, known locally as the Fox River Sandhill Crane Marsh, is the first tract acquired for the new refuge as part of an acquisition effort by the FWS. Since the prea becomes part of the national wildlife refuge system, it is automatically closed to hunting (for now) until opened by a regulation process. The FWS must determine through an established plan ning process whether hunting would pose conflicts with the prescribed purpose of the refuge. The area was acquired under the FWS Unique Wildlife Ecosystem Program. The Wisconsin unit will be evaluated under criteria established for the develop ment and management of national wildlife regues. This will be done sometime before the 1980 hunting season. The public will have an opportunity to provide input during the planning process, FWS officials said,. Meanwhile, the refuge will be closed to hunting.
