Show fied, initiated a new search for a more smoothly functioning combination. Orb Childs, gangling reserve, was placed at center for the Montana State series, and the giant, replying with a total point of forty-five, led his mates to their first victories of the year. Both Miller and Kramer hobbled to the sidelines with injuries after the first night's battle.Invading Logan the following week, the Redskins, unable to match the flawless attack of the Aggies, dropped both contests, but a split series with the Bobcats at Bozeman and two games annexed from the failing Cougars in the following two weeks of play placed the Utes in the role of contender once more. In the finale, a driving Aggie quintet once again handed the Crimson a double setback, drove them deep into third place, and shattered their hopes for laurels.Easily the individual standout of the year, Kinner amassed one hundred and sixty-three points to lead the division in scoring. Callis, James, Miller, and Larsen played brilliantly. However the entire team drew commendable praise for their performances.Pointing for next year, Peterson loses only Childs and Callis. The majority of the squad having three years of experience behind them, Utah's hopes for a belated conference championship should be the most favorable in many seasons.1934-35 BASKETBALL SQUADPeterson (coach), Jacobson, Fowler, Berg, Bolic, Hulse, Pendleton, Neilson (trainer) Couch (assistant coach), Miller, Callis, Childs, Kinner, James, Larson, Jensen Boam, Wilde, Caulfield, Nielson, Bryner, SmithTwo Hundred Sixty-seven |
