Show I a I I I 4 FRANK 1 K BAKER BAKER- University of Utah it appears is on the verge of breaking a moral obligation to the football fans of this territory by failing to bring a top-notch top intersectional oe to Salt Lake City during the 1935 5 season I r r I. I Such failure will wiIl be a keen disappointment to the I i gridiron fans who supported the Oregon game here last f fall ll with the understanding that that game was really j f r. a n test to see if Utah could finance major intersectional r t. t attractions here at home Not one of pf t the fans ans who went to that game will I l i. i have any particular objection because everybody more marc M fr fi j r i vu S than got t their moneys money's worth in that spectacular pert perr per- per 1 t r v won by Oregon 8 t On the other hand the record turnout of nearly j v indicated that Utah can amply support o one e good goodr t r Intersectional game at home lionie each year With the fans willing to pay the freight the university should be willIng willing will will- j 4 ing to book the game Oregon went home with better l' l I than or twice as much as Utah got for going to toI I Oregon the year before Utah likewise profited well Inasmuch as the fans are that enthusiastic about S t such games it ill behooves the university to neglect 1 I s I their desires as it apparently will do in 1935 Utes Already Booked for Eight Games Making It Difficult to Schedule More It is true that Utah faces a puzzling problem in its schedule making for the coming campaign In their own defense the athletic officials will point out that they already have eight games scheduled which represent rep rep- I 1 resent an ambitious program without need to look ook for tor more assignments They no doubt will wm point out too that Utah has already agreed to play Oregon and md the University of Hawaii at Honolulu and md explain further further fur fur- ther that these two trips offer oHer husky assignments in themselves not to toj j mention the growing ever task of trying to get back on top lop of the Rocky Mountain conference I Th The Redskin trail admittedly is not an easy one beginning with the I Denver game here October 26 The Utes meet B.

I i- i S hope to be serious competition for the Utes much less S be a drawing card It should be far more gratifying to play good ball pall balland and lose against a more formidable foe before packed stands than to roll roil up a tremendous score against the Cats before a handful The Utes have only 16 days between their Turkey t day battle with the and the Honolulu tilt and tit much of that time will be taken by travel ii I ff Light conditioning drill is all the team will need by th then n though because its it's virtually too late to start I teaching new plays and the theories ries by that time If the squad isn't properly trained at that point its it's simply too bad |
