Reeds duties are hitting the hardest holes in the line. He hits these with precision and speed and keeps right on going when there is no hole, he makes his own. Ask anybody who knows what its like to try and stop him and they will tell you that its like hitting a diesel When it comes game-timits Reed who engine with knees head-ois the father of the team. When the referee flips the coin, its No. 33 who carries the good news that we receive or we kick off. If there is a penalty on the play, Reed is the team representative on the play. In case the guard or tackle have a complaint on their chest, they tell Papa Stalworthy, he cries with them and everybody is happy. Backing up the heavy side of line on defense, he is in on fullback from B. Y. High. every tackle.

How well do you understand football and the terms the players use? Here is the start of the dictionary on sports: Pads These consist of shoulder pads, hip pads, thigh pads, knee pads, rib pads, and a helmet. Each and every player haa these, along with his unmentionables that he wears. These give the boys an appearance of being fifteen pounds heavier (ask any player and he thinks they weigh that much), about two inches taller, and three times as tough. Snap Signal When you hear the quarterback out on the field etc., hes not trying to make everyone nervous yelling down-1-2-- 3 he knows what hes doing. In the huddle it is decided that on a certain number the ball will be snapped, thus giving everybody an even start whether they see the ball move or not. Otherwise the game would develop into a contest to see whocould be the first man across the line, as it is, Merrill doesnt worry. Water Boy To the layman this is just a honorable job for someone who has proved worthy and couldnt say no to the coach. By the time the third quarter rolls around the waterboy takes on an appearance of the third, cavalry coming over the hill to save the settlement or an angel of mercy gliding in, W releave. Water flows like wine and a chipped milk bottle looks like a fancy cut glass flask. Try looking at the all important man in time-owith knowing eyes.

A hush fell over the crowd as Principal A. John Clarke, Representative of Region III of Board of Directors of Utah High School Activities Association, drew the name of the playing teams, Lincoln vs. Spanish Fork, from the hat. Sighs of disappointment rose from the remaining schools, as victorious screams echoed from those playing. Final score of the game was Lincoln 27, Spanish Fork 7. Purpose of the Festival was to start the season off with enthusiasm, and to gain funds for the Regions Athletic Association. ON BRUSHING ONES TEETH . . . Brushing my teeth in the mornproves to be quite an exasper- ing ating task. When I grasp my toothbrush in one hand and my tube of toothpaste in the other, Im not at all prepared for the ordeal that follows. First of all, I want to get just the right amount of toothpaste on the brush. I begin this delicate procedure by taking the cap off the toothpaste. This is accomplished by twisting it gently to the left for several turns, at which time it should fall off into your hand. If it doesnt, a firm tug will do it. I then squeeze on ihe bottom of the tube until whoops!!! It slipped! Well, Ill Just pick it up and now where is it?? As I turn around to look for it, I give a sudden leap!! For there, before me is a long, thin, white snake slithering along toward he door! When my heart slows down, I look elefcer at the monster and then I very sheepishly climb down from my perch on the side of the basin, pick up the smashed tube, squeeze whats left of its contents on my brush, and proceed. From then on, all is smooth sailing as I brush up and down, around and around, back and orth, Ooooooooh!!! What is that rickling down my arm??? I dont hink there ever could be a feeing quite like that of having toothpaste, slightly diluted with water, slowly trickle down ones arm at about 8:30 in the morning.
