Capt. Goodspeed at left half-back, besides being a power on defense, was always good for ten or twenty yards through any one of the opposing teams' lines, and his coolness and clean playing were continually in evidence; Miller at smashing end shows signs of a bright future in the football line; Tolman at guard could always account for his opponent; Warthman at end was very effective on offense; McCarty at quarterback ran off the plays with lots of snap and ginger; and Jones, Young, Titus and King also showed great ability.The scores were as follows:Granite ................................................ 5Ogden ................................................26Salt Lake High School......18Ogden ................................................... 3Freshmen .......................................¦.-.. 11Freshmen .......................................... 0Freshmen .......................................... 0Freshmen ..........................................10197 |
