Show October 12, 1932 THE WEBER HERALD Page Three Soph Outing Snappy Success The Sophomore party held at the Ogden Stake Grounds in South Fork the afternoon and evening of Friday, Scptemher 30, was a complete success. If you sophomores didn't have a good time, it'r hecause you didn't join us. Tf you freshmen didn't enjoy yourselves, it's hecause you aren't luck y enough to he Sophomores. Anyway, everyone had a glorious time. Here's how it sounded. "Well, pile on fellows; you gals get inside. We'll start anyway. Hqw many are there? Fifteen ! Oke. hut lean easy on that one side " "Purple! Purple! White! White! Weber! Weber! Fight Fight," "Oh PI! be true to thee. Oh Purple and White." "What is the sontr that the hand plays every day?' "We're Loyal to You Webei Team." let's sing it.'" You'll notice no golden si'mc reigred. We're lucky to come i' the -first car so we can see everyone get here. They can't be digni fied and arrive because we're out for a good time and besides they have to climb over, under, or through the fence. The Sophomores no sooner came than the first game of the Weber world series was underway. After about six innings of baseball they tackled "capture the flag." Tt turned out to be a tie and a handkerchief. We were hoping it would be Dee's Red Hat. Say, Steve, if you run out of football stars, just consult some of the Sophomores and they'll tell you who's who. ' While the rest of the crowd pulled themselves together, a fen ambitious souls sought an old abandoned mine "high on tlv mountain top" and saw the sim sink. After the sun sank, thing-started. Don't get alarmed, "Kim" started a big bonfire, and everyone joined in "just a songs at firelight." followed by food and a very enthusiastic political meeting. Thc food included two large bushel baskets of delicious grapes.) Following more songs, more bonfire, and more excitement, the Sophomores adjourned to the spacious dance hall. "Let's find a spot where there is some floor wax. This is slick." A quartette, consisting of about ten fellows and two girls furnished the noise until the "canned music arrived." The ballroom was illuminated by various colored Japanese lanterns. (For the Freshman's information, car lights.) The Sophomores wore the corn meal in and their shoes out, the fire and the music died down, but the pet and the spirit lingered on.

In Limelight The visitors in the limelight were Cowley, Larsen, Lunnen, and Kramer in the backfield aided b" Gooding and the other powerful Frosh linemen. Bob Van Dyke and Frankie Read played great ball in the Weber nackfield both offensively and defensively, w h i I Greenwell, Gibbs, and Paoletti, also looked good behind the line. On the line the work of Chand ler, Fowler, Wade, Cropley, at ends and tackles and Rich at center flanked at intervals by the stellar guard combinations of George Zane and Joe Johnson and Fred Ebersole and Ed Lindscy made a formidable forwardwall. The lineups: UTAH WEBER Anderson e Chandler Mecham t Wade Larsen g Johnson Gooding c Rich Hunt g J Zanc Morgan t Cropley Swan e Fowler Cowley q Pao'etti Larsen hb Green Kramer hb Read Lunnen fb Van Dyke Substitutions: Weber Lindsey for Johnson.

Gun for Parsons Hitting on all eleven men, aided by powerful reserves and backed by the student body, the Weber gridders will open their league ; competition against the Westminster footballers this coming Friday afternoon at the Ogden Stadium with a colorful kick-off at 3:00 p.m. Coach Merlon Stevenson will inject into the game a well organized team drilled in fundamentals, strong on defense and powerful on offense. In fact an all around Weber team, and that team girls and boys will make it plenty hot for the Parsons. Come on out and watch the Purple and White aggregation snoot the works. The backfield with a driving power will hammer the visitors forward wall with smashing, crushing tactics. Forward passes should go big, and when Weber takes to the air they'll be oodlet to talk about. The receiving ends can jump and catch passes with ease. The middle of the line will develop into fine blocking and holec will open as big as the Boulder Dam. The strength will not be forgotten on defense for Weber has some powerful men who follow the ball, breaking the hearts of the opposing players as they go marching through. Yep! It's going to be arip-snorting doop a doop of a game. On with the whistle, Referee.

The Indian Leader, Haskell Institute : They acknowledge subscriptions of former students. Let's keep our Alumni interested in us with the Weber Herald. Students, all the papers we receive from the other colleges arc at your convenience in the northeast corner of the library. You are invited to enjoy them. Okay Parsons ! Yeow ! Wildcats Personnel of Squad Starting from center "Dog Ears" Manning, as big as they make 'cm is fast, a good passer and has all the qualities of an offensive center and bov ! he is a bulwark on defense. Melvin Rich also a snapper back has plenty of strength and he wil1 develop into a neat player. At guards there is a quartet of fast stepping lads in the names of "Kaboola" Zane, "The Great Dane" Johnson. "Epsom Salts" Ebersole and "Unconcerned" L i n d s 1 e y. These boys have the ear marks of battle and their ability to block and tackle will give the cash customers plenty to talk about. There is a giant standing on a foundat ion of "size 14 shoes v Edwin" "Eagle" Wade, ared-headed lad good at pawing opponents. This frerkled-faced boy is the en-vey of many an all-American who didn't have a well balanced - foundation. Watch him, folks, and watch "Grandma" Cropley the stril wart short side tackle who carries with him weight and experience He opens holes as big "as bkr" and is poison on defense. "Pop" Henderson our ball-headed player and "Farmer" Blake are two good tackles who desrve a big hand for their fine work. Weber has a double quartet of good ends. "Peaches" Chandler. "Strawberry" Woods, "Tiny" Hodgson and "Handsome" Fowler, can run, snag passes geometricall v. "Tiger" Pantone and West Lindsey are two more ends who are good, along with "Big- Bob" Stratford and "Dapper" Duncan. In the backfield where most of the fire and sensation is stored will be "Educated Toe" Van Dyke the lad who carries with him a tutored big toe. He boots the oval far and wide at every corner of the field with high twisting spirals that make safety men dizzy. He passes accurately, drives and plunges like an "fron horse," and his diagnosing and backing up the line makes him a valuable fullback. "Pullet" Paoletti, one of Mussolini's best, will be heard calling well chosen signals. He packs a mean running attack with a cut back beautiful to watch, a iwist hard to follow. At safety rte is a THE SPIRIT OF THE TEAM It's all very well to have courage and skill And it's fine to be counted a star, But the single deed with its touch of thrill Doesn't tell us the man you are. For there's no lone hand in the game wc play, We must work to a bigger scheme And the things that counts in the world today Is how do you pull with the team ? They may sound your praise, they may call you great, They may single you out for fame, But you must work with your running mate Or you'll never win the game. For never the work of life is done By the man with a selfish dream, For the battle is lost or the battle is won By the spirit of the team. It's all very well to fight for fame, But the cause is a bigger need. And what you do for the good of the game Counts more than the flash of speed. It's the long, long haul and the dreary grind Where the stars but faintly gleam, And it's leaving all sense of self behind That fashions a winning team. You may think it great to be praised for skill, But a greater thing to do Is to set your mind and to set your will On the goal that's just in view. It's helping your fellowman to score When his chances hopeless seem, It's forgetting self till the game is o'er And fighting for the team. deadly tackier and opposing runners have long respected tni ooy. "Bulldog" Read, speedy, deadly, tackier, a good passer and an average kicker is Weber's star halfback. He also takes a turn in barking signals. Yep ! an all-around player is Franklin, Mr. Read's little boy. Green, little dynamo from Idaho, Archie Richard son and Butch Bar-fus are other fine footballers in the backfield. There is another lad for the signal position and that's "Fifi" Glen Greenwell a little boy from the country. There are numerous players a la reserve and they are: Backfield Pell, Gibbs, Wiliams, Merrill, Morris, Greaves, Porter, Rosenbaum, Price, and Vaughn. Linemen Gajcwsky, Burnett, Taylor, Bodily, Sackett, K i s h i, Rollins, Maw, Smith, Spillsbury, Thomas, "Be My" Valentine, Barrett, McKce, and Sargeant. And, friends, inasmuch as Bill Baker wrote the above article, it is rTnly fair for the "Herald" to add that Bill was all-conference at center last year and his passing is so near perfect that he would be called a "mechanical man" if it were not for the fact that he also has an uncanny ability to always think a play or two ahead of the opposit ion.
