Show PIRIT of competition is keen in the hearts and minds of athletic contestants and spectators alike comparable to ye old gladiatorial combat. At the football games we view hundreds of individuals dominated by a common prevailing interest - to see Utah win. The scent of buttered popcorn perfumes the air .. . a little boy dribbles mustard from his hot dog ... a thermos of warm beverage is jogged on to curb the chilly Fall air ... the entire atmosphere of the out-of-door excitement adds to the thrill of seeing the game. Basketball enthusiasts share the performers' anxiety as we witness the diverse facial expressions. Spurts of emotion flare as occasional on-lookers spring to their feet and shriek in ecstasy . . . others quiesce and display a chafing countenance. Skiing, swimming, track, wrestling, boxing, baseball, tennis, and golf - besides football and basketball - shall continue their paramount attraction for the enthusiasts in the subsequent seasons, because the panorama of the sports era has established a series of contests indelibly impressed, on the memory. 5pfl| 130 |
