j)nme Basketball Plays Sorority Relay Mentor Recounts His ‘ By JIMMY HODGSON Varsity and alumni Rriddors from the University of Utah will clash on May 2 in the fourth annual football fiesta battle There are several ideas back of the fiesta plan but the most important is to secure funds to help carry on the work for the crippled children at the L D S and Shriners’ hospitals here The spring grid contest also gives Mentor Ike Armstrong a chance to show what he has (or what he has not) in the line of grid material for the fall season and provides a great opportunity to slip aome fundamental information to the fans on how the game is played and what goes on in a contest that many fans miss Drills Delayed The fiesta game usually tops off the varsity spring practice program but with the drills delayed already -- ' ' than more two weeks by bad weather it is expected that the football work will continue after the game this season Coach Ike Armstrong expects to have his charges out for regular work Monday so that they will have four full weeks to learn their grid lessons and get in shape for the fiesta contest The Utes have been able to get in only one day's work thus far The alumni squad will be headed by Frank Christensen and Jack Johnson former all - Americans from the Utah university and now members of the world professional championship Detroit Lions grid (quad The two pro

heavily favored to take the much depleted university squad into camp Teams Train The fiesta games have been made Interesting in past years because the alumni squads have really trained for the contest Two well conditioned teams are expected to fight it out again on May 2 Besides the grid game Coach Armstrong expects to stage his usual demonstrations of offensive and defensive formations passing kicking and other fundamentals of the game The annual sorority relays race will be staged between the halves This race of the football game brings practically every member of the ‘U” track squad into action and interesting proved an intensively part of the program last spring Some mass demonstrations on the field by the L D S primary association and the Shriners will also be featured so that a big
