The faculty governing body ruled -Saturday that Denver muot abide by Its contract and meet I 'tan in Salt Lake City, October J9, 19M. By LOIDON KELLY DENVER, Dec. 4 UP) Tho "big seven" completed work on its 1938 football schedule early today, but left soma strained feelings between two of its most powerful members, Denver and Utah universities. The faculty representatives "supreme court" of the new league formed when the seven schools withdrew from the 2S-j 2S-j par-old Rocky mountain conference confer-ence ruled Denver must adhere, ad-here, to the schedule drafted last spring, which billed the D. I".-I I".-I tan game for October 29, 1SS, at Salt I.a(? TTty; The two schools met at the Utah capital this season. A Denver spokesman said, 4Our only recourse ia to take the matter mat-ter up with our athletic committee, to see what can be done." The university uni-versity representative made it clear they still are opposed to playing the game at Salt Lake City for the second straight year. Play at Laramie The faculty group also announced the Utah-Wyoming 1938 game will be played at Laramie November 19. This completes the round robin aspects of the schedule, under which each school abides by "big seven" regulations by scheduling a game with every other member. The five schools left in the R. M. C. drafted tentative schedules for next fall. These colleges have no round robin provisions. The "big seven" was expected to reach a final decision on an official name today. One official said: "It doesn't much matter what name we choose, since the circuit now is known as the 'big seven,' and probably will continue to be called that." The coaches recommended to the faculty group that a training train-ing table for football players be set up at each of the seven schools. It appeared certain, however, how-ever, the proposal will go. no farther. Ve can't have training tables as long as we are members of the North Central Association of Schools and Colleges, since the association bana them, one athletic ath-letic director said. Coaches and athletic directors agreed to meet this morning in an effort to map out a grid schedule for 1939. Virtually every school in the new league has signed up for at least one intersectional game in addition addi-tion to its conference slate. Denver leads with three Iowa State, Hawaii Ha-waii and New Mexico. I Play .Missouri j Colorado will play Missouri, Utah 'will meet Idaho and at least ona other nonconference foe to fill ona of its open dates on the first three Saturdays of the season. Utah State will play Idaho, Wyoming Wyo-ming will meet Texas Tech and Brigham Young will tangle with Arizona Teachers of Flataff and Portland university, and probably another intersectional foe on Thanksgiving day. A significant trend in mountain college athletics was shown in the failure of Denver to schedule two traditional foes, Colorado Mines and Colorado college. Both of those schools almost certainly cer-tainly will be left off the Colorado univeristy schedule also.
