Show THE SIGNPOST ALBION BATTLES WILDCATS TODAY Page 4 Charlie HctAe by Ted Collins Stay-at-homes received the word they wanted when the Wildcats handed Ricks one good solid sock. That push in the puss kept Ricks scoreless, 0 to 6. "Little brown jug, I love thee !" Nippy weather we're having, isn't it, Hatch? Don't become personal and ask me why he was benched. Weber made the one and only touchdown in the first sixty seconds of the game; fortunately, they were able to coast through the rest of the game. The attitude was terrible because of not enough meals, too far in between. This old stuff of only three squares a day has too many gaps in it. Sam Burton said the game was so slow that between plays he became acquainted with all twenty spectators. What this school needs is more Mr. Markhams and a touch of his school spirit. With the exception of the coach, the only faculty member out there was Mr. Markham, and, believe it or not, he knows the school songs. Fairly good tenor, if T may be allowed to cast opinions. I take it back. Jones, Childs, Nils-son, Swenson, Trevilhick, Hurst and Baddley traveled forty miles and back to see the Westminster muddle.Westminster Game Those students who were fortunate enough to be half Indian or had Boy Scout training were able to find Westminster's pasture, or do I flatter the plain. The theme of the day Saturday was "Here's mud in your eye." About 60 seconds before the game, dame (dam) nature let loose with a snow storm. Not enough to snow anyone in, just enough to make the Westminster backyard nice and slick and plenty gooey. I didn't see Briem there or maybe she could have used her influence with the weather man. In the first five minutes of the game every player added six mud inches to his statue. If ever vou want some fun, try walking with a six-inch mud sole and have it suddenly slip out from under you. Perhaps this would account for the ten-yard kickoff Clark made. When finally the snow quit, the temperature dropped 40 degrees B. S. A. '(below spirit of the audience). That's indecently low! It was so cold Bergland said cleats chipped skin off instead of cutting. The ball became so slick the boys flipped it between their fingers like a wet bar of soap, instead of passing. I understand Mutt Wright gave up his winter flannels to wipe off the ball. Snappy Drill to be Given at Game "The combination Whip club Weber college band drill at the half of the game between Albion and Weber will be spectacular," prophesies Irene Coombs, president of Whip. The drill will be the first appearance of Weber's band in marching order and the first opportunity the people of Ogden will have to see the band. The drill will follow the theme of the Homecoming, "Beat Albion," and the spelling of "victory" by the band and pen club should be inspiration for Weber's Wildcats. The customary salute to Albion and Weber, a special salute to the alumni, and a big surprise, which Miss Coombs promises will be outstanding, will complete one of the steps in the Homecoming climax. Student Body Sees Uniforms Mr. Clair Johnson presented the Weber college band in its new uniforms for the first time last Friday in assembly. The band opened the program with a snappy march, which was followed by a comic number, "The Three Bears." The uniforms, although not flashy, are military in appearance and will give class and dignity to the band. Student body and faculty approval of the uniformed band adds another link to the chain leading to well-dressed success. Mr. Johnson plans, a great deal of marching for the band and intends to perfect some drills and maneuvers. They will march in the parade preceding the Agricultural college and University of Idaho game on November ly, and will also do some demonstration marching at the game.

Evidently the students agreed with them, for they elected Bill the next year. George Larkin we remember for his amazing vocabulary, his advanced definition of alumnus being : "The guy what discovered America." Kleon Kerr, who always showed a marked kindness to dumb animals and the faculty, was a song-writer at heart. He was in cahoots with Stephen Foster at the time and composed the chorus to the hit of the day, "Old Black Joe." (You know, the part that says, "Home coming, Home coming, for my head is bending low.") Lester we forget that Richardson fellow, who, before he came to Weber, thought the Moench building was a lunch room . . . With the advent of the Renaissance, a new student body president was put up with. He was a good-looking something that quacks, and he had the personality of a long-stemmed glass of sparkling champagne. He happened to obtain the hero's role in a certain play, and as a result, he had the ladies at his feet. He was thus elected by the simple majority. By the way, his name was Bob Polidor. Not long ago another man took the place of Mr. Polidor. He was well received by all; in fact, they even gave him the title (Sir) Housemaid's Slop pardon me, I meant Hope. That handle was much too dignified for our hero ; so he had his friends call him Merle Allen, which was the best name he could think of at the time. Maybe some day in the future, a new man will take Merle's place. (If you don't mind our waxing sentimental) I doubt that-the Freshies can produce one to come up to his standards but strange things do happen and Alabam's hidden talent program might dig something up. Oh, well, Albion my way. WINNER TO RECEIVE JUNIOR COLLEGE GRID CROWN; ALBION IS FAVORITE tteatnline4 By MARIE CHEVERS Furious readers of this column, both students and ex-students, for a moment I shall deviate from my usual theme of women's physical education, and devote a tattered fraction of mv space to the alumni of our Alma Mater, Weber college. We welcome you with all the gusto and enthusiasm with which we hope you visit us. In fact, we the student body have spent a deal of time arranging a gala reunion. You have doubtless noticed that the town is waving Old Glory and that the bands are playing? Well, that is for you and Armistice day. No fooling, chums, we hope you like our rapid growth from knickers to long pants in six vears. The new mechanic arts building and the other improvements on the old campus stand as a tribute to you, for without you slashing the trail for us to ride down, we never could have expanded as rapidly. Not to lose sight of our streamliners altogether this issue, let us look over some of our alumni who are walking the tightrope of success carrying excellent physiques. Take, for example, two outstanding SINGLE men (Don't mob 'em. gals) George Williams of Shupe-Williams snd Grant Burton, English teacher. No foolin', our "pops" could well take a lesson from them. No tendency toward the abdominous at all. No, none at all though Grant looks a bit concave. (I don't know how he feels). How about a course at the old gym, son? Men's division, naturally. We can't neglect the men who have done it. either. Such as Kent Bramwell, Clyde Beuhler, Norman Bingham and Junius Tribe. These fellas all snagged beautiful women. And how they keep those ladies streamlined on $8.00 a day is over mv ceiling. It's easy on 80 cents, I find. Nope, we haven't forgotten the rest of the fair sex. If you want an eyeful of petiteness, four-eyes, cast your lamps in the direction of the path between the gym and the Moench any week day at 8:45 a. m. and gander at Jean Danvers. You can't be mistaken ; she really is a blonde. Why doesn't Hermoine Tracy drop by some day, too? So as not to leave the faculty out of this box of chocolates, I undertook a survey of who liked what. Results : Mr. Trevithick favors a 36 bust. Now, David. Mr. Childs prefers a 24 waist, though he could handle a 48. Mr. Nilsson hobbys calves and ankles. Yeah, don't they all ! Mr. Young goes for anything. ?YvV:1,J TT i Defeat Idaho Eleven The title of the jaysee football league hangs in the balance as Weber gridders clash with the undefeated Albion Normal eleven this afternoon. The kickoff is scheduled for two p. m. sharp. The battle, feature of the college's Homecoming celebration, is expected to draw an unprecedented Armistice day crowd to the local stadium. The Wildcats, still smarting from last Saturday's 6-0 defeat from Westminster, expect to get the number of the Albion aggregation, although sports critics rate them the under-dogs in the contest. Last week Albion trounced the Idaho Southern Branch team by a 12-7 score. Boosters of the club ;ay they display power and a moderate amount of speed that will be a task for the Wildcats to overcome. All of Weber's resources, however, will be called into play in an effort to topple the league-leaders from their position. Coach Orville Hult of Albion looks for a stubborn game with Weber ; Coach Bob Davis, whose local gridiron machine resumed practice Monday, is optimistic, anticipating a hard-fought game that may very likely end with Weber on the victorious end of the score.
