Excelsior, men's social organization, is using no end of ingenuity to make this dance one that will amaze the colored folks "down Souf," who originated f.'uckin'. They's goan' to be theah, them moanin', singin', Danein' darkies. The ballroom has had its face turn the color of a half dozen hotcha-hotcha quadroons: brown, rod, orange, and black. Gay and lively as a niggah in a melon patch. The dance stand is to be covered with pumpkins that pump, pump, pump 'sard as they kin.

This year saw Coach Davis and his worthies climb to the top and share the throne with Westminster and Albion for the first time since 1932. On successive afternoons W e b e r's husky Wildcats tied B. A. C. and won from Dixie 15 to 6. Then they proceeded to romp over Regis of Denver 19 to 7, Mesa 5 to 0, and Ricks 6 to 0. Not until they went down f'ghting on a snow-covered Westminster gridiron was the purple and white victory chant silenced. Notwithstanding this, Bob, Captain Thomas, and all the fighting mol-skinners came back fighting to climax a perfect homecoming day with a 3 to 0 victory over the touted Albiorites from Idaho. Although outweighed by nearly every team which they met this year the Wildcats just wouldn't give up. They have had bigger teams, rotten weather, and bad breaks, and they've came through with colors flying high. They are worthy champions. Their names can well be listed with the best in Weber's gridiroi! history. Carl Warden and Boner Johnson, ends; Cactus Peterson ana Don Hatch, tackles; Deb Nye and Frank Hudson, guards, and fCaptain Jack Thomas, center, proved to be a line that gave couted opponent backs many a loss and headache especially Albion's quarterback. They proved themselves worthy of all honors with their smart play analysis and hard tackling and blocking. Dee Whitesides and Sam Burton at halfback, Glen Clarke, kicking fullback, and Kenny Reed, small but smart field general, composed the backfield which amazed the most skeptical.
