I but It always has some real Toot ball learns and the Utah boys are in for a I hard scrap, as the northwest lads are always large and know how t,- play football. This team tied up for the honors in' the northwest last season und are expected to be strong again In 1922 Thanksgiving dn will find the Utah Aggies and the T tab elevens on Cum-mtngs Cum-mtngs field in what promises to bt the best battle for years.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS Utah's prospects look rather , ncour-aging ncour-aging right now. and Conch Fitzpatrick Fitzpat-rick will have to fill up two gaps in the line that have been vacant by the graduation of Mack Swan and because 1 Warren Gilmer quit school nfter last i football season Swan's place at the university will be hard to fill, as this husky athlete has been selected for the mvthlcal eleven for the three years that he plaved for Utah He has al-wnvs al-wnvs been a plugger and was always Into the battle. Swan had a hunch that No 5 wrns his lucky number and he always carried this number on his back In all of the games. The fans who witnessed Utah In action could always find Swan doing his burden of tho work In every contest, that has been played and they will miss his spectacular work Although a lineman, line-man, the real football fans could always al-ways see the wonderful work that Mark was putting over. Gilmer was another star for the Crimson and will be missed on the hill. Mickey Oswald Is on a mission and will not be back for (ho 10 22 race.
