East High Eleven Sets Up New Record for High Scoring. I spite of the Leopards having only two letter men to start the season, their fast, well-trained team now bids fair to equal or to excel the record rec-ord of the East high school state championship team of 1917. In almost every ..game the Leopards have played this season they have been Outweighed, but owing to the fast and clever work of the backfield they have been able to make their yards In most plays. Much pralso Is due also to the strong line which has been a bulwark on tho defense since the first game of the season, which brought the Leopards a 65-to-0 victory over the Farmers of "West Jordan. In a game with the L. D. S. U.f the Leopards talliod US points, .which Is believed be-lieved to . be a state record for football i scoring, and came out victorious in a 3lS-to-0 game with the Davis County high school. Captain "Brick" Whitney, one of tho two "H" men on the squad, received a badly broken arm in the Aggie game last "week. He had been playing a heady game at fullback for the htlltoppers, and as his quick work has featured many games his absence will handicap the hopeful East high grldrters. Jewkes will replace Wh't-ney Wh't-ney for tho remaining part of tho season, anir Henderson, tho only other "H" man, has been olected field captain. Jewkes, Tamer, Livingston and Officer have' been flaying well in the backfiold. Kump and Anderson at guard, with Fap-worth Fap-worth at center, have been going strong for tho Leopards, while Gillespie and Williams at tackle, and Smith and Armstrong Arm-strong at ends go to make a bulwark on the defense and a strong offensive machine. ma-chine. Chandler, Dern, Meyers. Dyer and Parkenson have also been doing good work for tho prospective champions.
