Show MAY NOT PLAY AGAIN. Salt Lake and Ogdcu High Schools May Never Play Again. The football season for the High School football team is now over, which is a fact most pleasing to tho players themselves. Tho team has broke training and will not appear on the gridiron again this season. For the first time in eleven years the Salt. Lake high school cannot claim the championship champion-ship honors of the Slate. The team quit tho season on Saturday satisfied at least that if things had been right they would be the champions of the State Ogdcn will claim the honors because of tho victory which was played a week from last Saturdav, but Salt Lake claims that they will feel but little the worse for that. For six out of the eleven men this will be their last year. The six arc Morris, Dunn. Paul, Hammond, Grant, and Home which takes all of the old men off. Those who will be left are , Richardson, Sticfcl, Arnold, Shores and Wimmer. This means that next year the high school will have to fill up nearly as manv vacant places as they did this yoar. The places which will have to bo filled are the most important on the team, being fullback, ono halfback, quarterback, one end, center, and one guard. The men who will leave the school this year either through graduation gradu-ation or by dropping out will be among the weightiest that played on the squad this year. It will 'also include all the men who played on a high school I team before the present season. Coach Callahan in discussing tho matter says that to his judgment the team of tiny year was an exceptionally fast one. lie claims that had there "been a little more weight to them and had they had a little more experience they would have swept everything before them. Jle says that about eight out of tho eleven never played football before this season and that they played as well as they did was remarkable. lie feels, however, that had thoy gotten another chance at Ogdeii thev would havo won by a good margin. They wore disappointed, at not getting another chance at Ogdcn, but it was considered best under tho circumstances that they would havo been forced to play the game Mr. Callahan slates now that "Salt. Lake will never again meet Ogdeu. He claims thai it, has been a yearly occurrence for trouble to spring up between the two teams. Tt almost always results in some bad feeling betwe'en tho two schools and that rather than have that he will not play them. So tho prospects at present; are that Salt Lake and Ogden Og-den will never battle on the gridiron again. Next year Mr. Callahan savs he -will secure a long list of games 'with teams from outside of the State and refuse to play Ogden. He claims that he can do so because of the fact that Ogdcn is not this year and cannot next year play men in accordance with the eligibility rules. |
