Show Ray Atkinson Guard The following week-end the Utes were thrown against the Arizona Blue Devils, champions of the Border Conference and always a formidable machine. Because the Arizonians boasted of a team that completely outmatched Utah's on paper, and because of Utah's admittedly inexperienced crew, the Border group was given the pre-game nod by prognosticators. A compilation of the game statistics proved that the prophets knew whereof they spoke, for the records showed quite conclusively that the Blue Brigade should have won. But the writer predicting the game had failed to consider the point of teamwork which was shown by the underdog hosts, for even though they were outgained two hundred yards during the afternoon, the Utes managed to win the game 14-6, only because of their splendid teamwork and cooperation. This game was the perfect example of eleven men working for the same goal. Bruce Balken End James Christensen Halfback Bernard McGarry Tackle |
