Show Page 2 SIGNPOST January 80, 1953 Password 1 'See You At The Game" Have you ever gone to watch a basketball game and wondered just what was going on in the mind of the player on the floor? Try putting yourself in his place, try to imagine what you would think if you were defending the honor of your school and not a single yell of encouragement came from the spectators. That wouldn't go over so solid with you, would it? You might even decide that it wasn't worth the effort for all the appreciation you were receiving and let the game "go to pot." This season, Weber has displayed some real talent on the basketball floor, but the support hasn't been all that it should be. Still, they haven't taken their ball and gone home mad. They are working hard to uphold the honor of Weber college, but they can't be expected to Bo it all by themselves. If they are to have a successful basketball season, it is up to us, as the student body, to support them, not just individually, but in force. With just a little effort on the part of each student on the campus, we can show our team that we're behind them all the way. How's about it? Let's make "See ya' at the game Friday" the password to championship for Weber. Success Requires Support As one looks around the nation at the universities and colleges that have gained considerable favor in the eyes of the educators and the public alike, there is seen the ever-present factor of the support of the school activities. The students of these universities are full of enthusiasm, and they are supporting and participating in the activities of the school. These students are the ones that are adding to the wealth of their school. During the winter quarter, Weber College is sponsoring scores of activities. Basketball games, dances, assemblies, lectures, community concerts, dramas, an operetta, and a host of other activities are open to the student for his entertainment and education. Weber college has had more than an ample seating capacity in their assemblies in the past. They have lacked numbers at the lectures, community concerts, and basketball games. If they are to hope for greater favor from others and more enjoyment for themselves, they will support and participate, with more enthusiasm, in their school's activities. Then they will receive more from their schooling. Wm.
