Show -' 'Utah 3% B. Y. U. 6 The "U" gave one big leap back into the conference running by lacing Brigham Young to the tune of 35 to 6! Little did we dream that such an overwhelming success was to be ours. Dopesters pointed with professional pride to the "Y" 's victory over Colorado College and the latter's win over Utah. A gambler's set-up, although the odds were more than scarce. The dealers in chance, however, failed to take into consideration that old "Utah fights" slogan. Half-back Jewkes guided his team like an ideal captain should, on October 25 he looked like that old Jewkes that threw fear into the hearts of the opponents two years ago. Members of the Provo squad agreed that they could get just as much pleasure out of tackling a post as they did in bringing down the Utah leader. Although every backfield man was eel-like and speedy, each one getting his man with a sacrificing spirit, mention is due to that steady improvement of the forward defense. Coach Regan had taken a relative green line and molded it into a charging unit that bowled over the opposing wall on every lunge. Perhaps the difference between the two elevens was not the score, for after Dixon's removal in the fourth period, the visitors' defense weakened perceptibly. Still you can bet that Boulder was mighty uneasy about their next game, or we missed our guess. Page Two Hundred Fourteen |
