Keen rivalry has always existed between these :two local schools in athletics, and both student bodies were out in force to support their teams.

During the second half Sanpete San-pete resorted to line plunging and straight football, and Olson, Ol-son, Allred and Monsen broke through for long gains. Wasatch Wa-satch was outweighed and seemed unable to stop Sanpetes plunging backs, who scored four more touchdowns before the end of the game; In the last quarter Wasatch blocked a Sanpete punt and, after a penalty and k series of line bucks, pushed the ball oyer , Sanpete's goal in the last five 'minutes of play for their only touchdown. - For North Sanpete Olson, Allred and Monsen played an exceptionally good game. Euggeri, McClain and Allison fought hard for Wasatch and were their most consistent 'ground gainers.
