Show IJTAH EXPECTS 10 Team Overflowing With Exuberance Ex-uberance in Anticipation of Saturday Game. 1 SALT LAKE. Nov. 9. Their very countenances teeming with determination determina-tion and preparedness, Utah's band of fifteen gridiron caYorters left for Boulder yesterday afternoon, whero thoy aro scheduled to meet the University Uni-versity of Colorado gridists Saturday. There were a good number of students on hand to give the boys a rousing send-off and to emphasize the fact that Utah must "bust Boulder." A band of four loyal varsity students accompanied the team. They were Heber M. Sevy, president of the student stu-dent body; Leslie White, Kershaw Harms and Brent Cahoon. Their going was made possible by the "pots" held at the university yestorday and Wednesday. Wed-nesday. Also accompanying the team were Coach Norgren and Trainer Neil-son. Neil-son. Members of the team who left were Acting Captain Homer Warner, Harold Har-old Goodwin, Steve Kerr, Ed Howells, George Waroing, Jefferson Ann-strong, Ann-strong, Dave Coleman, R. Budellor, Maurice Roche, Spencer R.eid, Norman Riches, Vardis Fisher, Ralph Stewart, Russell Owens and Norman Winder. All were In prime condition with the exception of "Tiny" Roche, who is in generally bad shapo as a result of last Saturday's game with the Colorado Aggies. Important for Utah. Much hinges upon the outcome of the Boulder fracas. At the present time, both aggregations aro tied for second place in the percentage column) with two games won and one lost to their credit. Utah has won from Wyoming Wyo-ming and the Colorado Aggies, and lost to the Colorado college Tigers, while Boulder was trounced by Donver and has won from the Colorado Mines and the Colorado Tigers. Since Boulder walloped the Tigers, who defeated Utah two weeks ago, dope naturally favors the Coloradoans. However, Utah will not present tho same form of attack against Boulder as It did against tho Tigers, as In the contest two weeks ago, only straight football was used, while during the past week freak plays and forward pass formations have been taught the Crlmsonites behind closed gates. Theso forms of attack will bo used in the Boulder game, and It is believed to good advantage. Coach Norgren declared at tho station sta-tion before leaving that he believed his men had grasped tho Ideas taught during the past week, and stated that with a little headwork, Utah should be able to make the University of Colorado Colo-rado men play ball to the Imit. He predicted pre-dicted neithor victory nor defeat, as is his usual custom, but emphasized the fact that Utah may be depended upon to put up a stiff fight Boulder Confident. It is reported from Boulder that the Colorado aggregation Is confident of taking the Utahns Into camp. Newspaper News-paper reports of last Saturday's game with the Colorado Tigers, which was won by Boulder 18 to 17, gives Boulder tho credit for having a much better aggregation than the Tigers, both on offensive and defensive. Harold Goodwin, fullback, will again form the nucleus of tho Utah attack, and local fans are expecting much from him. Colorado crltlcB who have seen him In action state that he Is one of the most consistent ground gainers In the conference, and ho is already al-ready being seriously considered for all-conference honors. Norgren expects much from i-e backfield men in the coming gamo, as tho clever freak plays will gtvo them an opportunity of showing their worth. Utah's line is appearing stronger with each practice. The team will arrive In Boulder this afternoon and will leave Sunday forenoon, fore-noon, arriving here Monday afternoon. A big dance'will be given In honor of the Crlmsonites at the Boulder armory Saturday night. |
