Show Page Four SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE November 7, 19'1 Caputo Has Trouble With South's Twelfth Man9 Mk tlvrac rljPjLirf ?iW RM 1 1 I Johnny Caputo of West had enough trouble with South's regular team without having to put up with the Cubs' I "mascot". The pup has been around the school for a ' number of years and seems to be quite a rabid football Courtesy Deseret News fan and "player'. He is present at every game, help-- I ing to make the life of the referee miserable. fC? Boys Out to Avenge Single Setback by West "C" team gridders will trot out tonight to play a West High team which turned the tables on the highly touted Cubs in the season's first encounter, and may be capable of doing it again. Coach Nate Long's outfit is I pointing for vengeance in their second duel with the cross-tow- n midgets. Shifts during practice sessions have been marked with crys of "beat West high school." Every member of the team is working for a win from the local "dark horses." Whether or not this battle cry can be made a reality by the bear-er- s of the blue and white depends a great deal on the success of the forward wall, which has proved itself definitely superior to either East or West's line. Loss of Jack Lowder has hit the team, but sub-stitutes have fitted well into his end position. Frank Davidson, Russ Mears, Charles Higgins, Joe Pass, Glenn McGee, and Captain Jerry Collins provide a tentative line to meet the kickoff. The backfield has been function-ing well, with all-ci- ty Stan Claw-so-n in the lineup. Glen Earl, Bill Northrup, and Dick North have been making plays click in prac-tice sessions in a way which may have thrown a scare in West's di-rection. Capable substitutes have been found in diminutive Cal Hathen-broo- k and junior Bob Story. Comparative scores do not enter into the picture of the game to-night. South soundly trounced East in their first duel, but lost to a West squad 6-- 0, while the Leo-pards really made hay against the West siders, winning a decisive victory. South's chances for a football championship may have been shot with last Friday's "A" game, but the way the "C" team fought their way to a 13 to 7 victory over East Wednesday on the Leopards' field, one would have thought that the football season had just opened. The first few minutes of play were fairly dull until Clawson's right arm pitched the pigskin into the arms of Bill Northrup twenty yards down the field. Clawson then went off-tack-le for another twenty yards to East's 24. Glen Earl added his twenty yards on the next play to move the ball to the four yard line. Clawson hit center for the score and Higgins' educat-ed toe added the extra point. Probably the most spectacular play of the game came in the sec-ond quarter when Glen Earl reach-ed behind him to pull in Clawson's pass and fight 25 yards to a first and ten for South on the Leopards 40 yard marker. From here the Cubs started another drive when Earl got away for another 35 yards, but East took over the ball on downs on their own one-yar- d line. The next play Glade drop-ped back to punt out of danger, but South's hard-drivi- ng Charles Higgins pushed through to block the kick where Grant Kelly fell on it for the Cub's second tally. The conversion was blocked. In the final quarter East took the offensive and Lyman Kearns got off to several long gains, and finally the score. Gallant Juniors Close Second Tough Season South's B team stretched its losing streak to eight straight yester-day as it bowed to the mighty Easterner? 14-- 0. This fracas was one of the hardest fought games that any Cub team has put up to this year, for the juniors were trying for a victory with everything they I had. Except for the play immediately preceding the scoring plays, the teams looked very evenly matched. f East's first score came shortly after the beginning of the second quarter when East came on a sus- - ?, tained drive from their own forty-yar-d line. Phil Gregorsen plung-ed over from the three-yar- d stripe. The Leopards scored again in the fourth stanza. It came as a result of a blocked kick. Gregor-sen again did the scoring honors. The entire first half was nip and tuck with each team threaten-ing. As the third quarter opened a good kick and a penalty put the Cubs in a hole, but the dependa-ble foot of Harry Erskine punted out of danger. Midway in the period the Leo-pard machine marched to the Cub twenty-fiv- e, but their drive bog-ged down and South took over. For East Gregorsen and Sasaki stood out, while for the Southern-ers Breeze and McClelland were in the spotlight. Midgets Carry South's Honor South's C team has been holding up South's honor for a long time now, and it seems appropriate to give them the credit they justly deserve. Many of the boys have tdayed a brand of football that! would stand up in A competition.! One of those, boys is Stan Clawson, whose exceptional play j was helpful in bringing the C team back into form after a slow? start. Stan occu--j nied a first string position last year and holds it again this year. Clawson holds the spotlight in many other activities in the school. He is a basketball player of the first rank and his tennis exploits are outstanding. South's assemblies often feature Stan in his tap-danci- ng routine. Another midget who deserves mention is Russell Mears whose great worth as a tackle has been much overlooked, except by Nate Long, who often leaves Russ in the full length of the game. Russ is a brother of Wally Mears, one of the greatest grid-ders ever to hit South high school. Also noted for outstanding play are Bill Northrup, a great blocker, Glen Earl, and Frank Davidson, is one boy who doesn't know what it is to play second string. Glen Earl is one of the fight -- ingest players that the C team has. He is a southpaw and tosses a good many of the passes. Grant Kelly, a substitute, is one who seems to be coming up. Where No Man Roams Climaxing an exciting hockey tournament, Miss Walkers fourth period senior team and third sen-ior team and third period junior team emerged the victors in the Junior and Senior Tournaments sponsored by Miss Biesinger, dur-ing the last few weeks. The two teams battled against their respective opponents, finally to win the championships. However, their opponents proved themselves difficult candidates for defeat. The games were played on the girl's gym field after school. Leader's Club was in charge of officiating the games. The teams that came in second are Miss Beisinger's 5th period for the Junior division and her 2nd pe-riod in the senior diviison. Girls on the winning senior team are Ret Boren, Elsie Hansen, Ann West, Betty Spencer, Virginia Liv-ingston, Mary Matthews, Norma Dean Stevenson, and Dorothy Scoggings, captain. Players on the junior champion team are Ruth Stott, captain; Bea- - trice Cannon, Dorothy Lewis, myi-tis Johnson, Lois Larsen, Shirley Butterworth, Ruth Gibbons, and Beverley Boisjilie. Parents participated in the square, shottish, and polka dances when attending "Back to School Night" last Wednesday. They had the opportunity or running the schedule and experiencing the same thing that their children do during a regular day of school. As each gym period began, rep-resentatives from the girls' gym department illustrated these danc-es to the parents, then proceeded to teach them the dances. These displays were given, not only that the parents might have an en-joyable period while visiting, but to learn some of the activities their daughters participated in from day to day. The gym classes will start play-ing volley ball and other indoor sports soon. The indoor game most anticipated by the girls is basketball. Probably there is no other sport that offers a more ex-citing time. This game requires skill and practice. I Seniors Hope For First Win Because of East's game with Honolulu, South's A team will not have a chance to break their rec-ord of three losses and no wins until November 21. The seniors started out like a house afire this year against out-o- f --conference teams, but East and West seemed to have just the right formula to extinguish them. The Cubs put up their greatest fight against West on the home ground last Friday. South seemed to have outplayed the Panthers but they couldn't make their play count for enough points. Of course, nothing can be taken away from the West side boys. They probably have the best high school team in the state. It seems to be taken for grant-ed by most of the spectators that Sid Faldmo was the outstanding player on the field that day. "Hard-chargin- g Sid" is as great on defense as he is on offense. . At his backing-u- p position, he makes a good line look much better. Also in the "good mention" column are Johnny and Nick Caputo of West. West made their first score on a flat pass from Nick to John. Olsen ;of West also loked good.
