A huge turnout is anticipated for the AMS snow carnival today at Snow Basin. Above, a Weber coed scans the tricky slopes of Wildcat run prior to downward flight. Right, Richard Rounds exhibits to a few interested onlookers the form he will display in the races today. her Cats Bow To B. Y. Five, Topple Ricks 98-52 Weber college basketeers gained-f ample revenge for their previous loss to Ricks college by racing to a record breaking 98-52 win over the outmanned Vikings from Rex-burg, Saturday night at Weber gym. The Wildcats set a fast pace from the start, and held a comfortable margin throughout with a well balanced attack that . the visitors couldn't cope with. The Cait secondaries continued the scoring sorcery when they replaced the regulars early in the second half. Ken Barrett worked nicely a-round the bucket and topped Weber scoring with 21 points, while aggressive Wayne Cottle was taking second honors with 19 points, most of them coming on drive-in shots. Stone and Hazen repeatedly found the target from way out, showing 18 and 17 points respectively.Crafty Gene Staddard, Ricks playmaker, lead all scorers with 24 points on nine goals and six penalty points. In a slam-bang preliminary struggle with the Utah State freshmen the Weber reserves exploded out of a third quarer stalemate with a brilliant rally lead by slick-passing Ron Watts and went on to win 64-50. The late Knute Rockne told a team of his, floundering on the low end of a lop-sided score, to .show thedr opponents their press notices and perhaps it would scare them into defeat. Let's hope our Wildcats won't resort to this at Comp-ton and play their own type of ball. They'll do all right. And The Flowers Are Furnished By OLIVE and MARK Klenke Floral Member of F. T. D. Association OGDEN, UTAH 2955 Wash. Blvd. Ph. 5789 An accurate BYU freshman five turned their excursion of Ogden into a profitable trip on Friday, February 20, by setbmg back the Weber Wildcats, 56-50, in a closely played affair at the Weber gym. The junior Cougars, after a belated start, showed lots of team savvy, tight ball handling, and hit a higher percentage of their shots than the cold Cats. x The Wildcats started fast and had a 7-2 lead after two minutes of play, when Hilman of the Cougars cut the deficit with three successive baskets and from there on out Weber couldn't match the B. Y.'s thunder. Halftime found the Y'sers ahead 31-82. Weber harried the Cougars throughout the second half but never caught them. Roland Minson, a silken smooth performer, amassed 17 points for the frosh, and his running mate, Hillman, contributed 14. Huge Kent Durrant, Cougar center, threw in ten points and was a strong man on the boards. Frank Hazen played the role of floor general well and led Wildcat scoring with 14 points, while Ken Berret dominated the backboards, as usual, and put in 12 markers for a good evening's work.

C. for the past two years as assistant football coach, Well-man will perform as the main string receiver for the Greensville, N. C. club of the Brooklyn chain system.

C. spotlight is focused today on that waxy winter disease, skiing, with the running of the annual AMS Snow Carnival in the form of a giant slalom and a snow sculpturing contest at Snow Basin. The snowfest will begin at 2:13 p. m. today with the women's slalom event down the face of Wildcat run. Several top-flight female slat artists have already registered for the race and Harry Soteras, general chairman of the carnival, reports that upwards of ten femmes will be primed for the go signal today. Included in the roster at present are Sharon Robbins, Georgeanne Hedges, Rosie Peterson, Rae Jones, and Lucille Douglas. Two Classes for Men The men skiers are divided into two classes for competition in the races, classes B and C. Chosen to enter in the B class are Phil Kears-ley, Bob Van Wagenen, Dick Mitchell, John Tanner, Bud Robbins, Lou Holston, Fred Montmorency, Dugan Felt, Marv Felt and Fran Wecker. All other entries will be placed in the class C competition. Following the slalom races, the snow sculpturing contest will take place near the basin lodge. Chairman Soteras announces that an invitation is being extended to all campus organizations to enter in the sculpturing event, with prizes being given to the most original and appropriate displays. Ski Team Represented The B class slalom dash promises to be the outstanding event of the day, with several members of the Weber ski team represented in the ranks. The Wildcat hickory stars completely bowled over a visiting Modesto, California, squad a few weeks back at the Basin, taking first place in every event entered. Kearsley is the captain of the ski squad, with Van Wagenen, Mitchell, Robbins, Holston and Montmorency completing the squad. Awards for the races include trophies for the winners in the events, with indivdual medals going to the second and third place skiers. Soteras announces that assistant chairman of the event, Bob Van Wagenen, has engaged Art Roth and Corey Engen, Snow Basin professionals, to Jay out the zig-zag course down the mountain. Engen recently returned from St. Moritz, where he made a fine showing as a member of the U. S. Olympic ski squad. Soteras is in charge of the timers, with Milt Mecham acting as the official starter. AMS officers have persuaded school officials to dismiss classes at two bells in order to obtain as large a crowd as possible at the Basin to witness the events and to enter, if desired. Busses will leave from the front of the Gym building at one o'clock to catch the early birds and at two to transport the freed souls from the classrooms. Ogden high school's Tigers finally found the hoop Tuesday and romped home with a 90-54 win over their former conquerors, Carbon high. Congratulations. The Tigers have been plagued with a bit of bad luck this year. They have the material but their off-nights just seem to roll around at game time. Though it is a little too late to land a post in the state tourney in their own gym, perhaps they can regain a bit of the prestige that has been prevailing at the Tiger lair in past years.
