Show UTAH ATHLETES ii eii Many Local Stars Will Seek Glory With Eastern East-ern Schools. Several -of Utah's best athletes are scheduled to depart soon for eastern schools and while this will retard local athletics, It is sure to put Utah on the map in eastern circles. The Uiah Agricultural college will probably prob-ably lose several of its best men, including in-cluding Maurice (Mose) SUcfel, Lester Jar-vis, Percy Hansen. Clyde Worley and I ".Hank" Gardner. At the "U" the lure i has also been thrown out, but as to i whether athletes from the school on the 1 hill will enter eastern institutions is as I vet undecided, but rumor has it that sev-I sev-I eral of Coach Tommy FiUpatriclCs stars i will enter other schools. 1 Creed Havmond. former "U" track and field man and one of the greatest track stars ever developed in Utah, Who is now attending the University of Pennsylvania, I is after several Ulahns to enter tnat institution. in-stitution. Creed is having great success. 1 He is captain-ele?t of the Penn track and field squad for the PJlit season, and won the 220-yard position on the All -American college team during the season just ended. He has stepped the furlong in 21 1-j seconds on several occasions. Brownie Wilson, former "U" track and field captain, and, one of the best ?S0-vard ?S0-vard men ever developed here and also a tsrid star of the first order, will probably complete his schooling at Penn after he returns from France. Brownie has been nought by the Penn backers for a couplt of vears and they feel confident that will land him. He is a member of Dr. II. B. Sprague's ambulance corps. Stiefel's Success Assured. Mose Sticfel. who is now a lieutenant stationed ai the 'U," is undecided as to his future course, but like other stars ih desirous of making' a name for himself in athletic circles in the east and with such a thought in mind it is highly probable prob-able that he will enter one of the schools in the middle west, perhaps one of the Big Ten. However, Mose will journey to the east coast and enter one of the larger schools. Sticfel cannot say anything fur- thet than that he intends to go east to schcol. He is one of the greatest athletes over developed in this state and in losing los-ing his services the Aggies will lose one of the strongest grid men they have bad in vears. Stiefel was the unanimous selection se-lection on the All Rocky Mountain conference confer-ence team last year by both Colorado and Utah critics, and this honor was won during his first year on a college team. He is one of the most consistent gridders ever seen in action on a western field and his line plunges, together with his end runs, have been sensational. He directs di-rects his team with great accuracy. Mose is also a star at basketball and on the diamond, and a twinkler on the track. On the diamond he Vs generally located at second base. He is a fiend with the hickory hick-ory and a good base runner. In track Mose is a sprinter. Aggies Plan Journeys. Besides Sliefel, the Aggies are scheduled sched-uled to lese Hansen, Jarvis, Worley, Gardner Gard-ner and perhaps others. Hansen was a star ii. a grid unie last year and he also showed to good advantage on the diamond, dia-mond, track and hoop fields. Jarvis has won wide reputation in this section and his work has been watched with great eagerness by local fans, who predict a great future for the former Panther. He is an all-around athlete of the Sticfel type, and. like Sliefel, would be a welcome wel-come addition to any eastern athletic aggregation. ag-gregation. Worley played on the line for the Aggies last year and was a stone wall on defense. He was a kicker of considerable con-siderable ability and scored many points for the Acgies with his toe. Gardner was a mainstay at the end position for the lxean men last year. He was fast, went down on punts like a veteran, was a clever tackier and all In all played great ball. Just what schools these boys will enter is not known, but it is known that eastern east-ern men have urged the Dogan stars, as weil as a mi mber of "LI" men, to enter the eastern fields of competition. |
