Show Page Four SOUTH HIGH SCRIBE Friday, September 18, 1942. Cubs, Granite Tangle i .Tonight : in Scrimmage Cubs Appear Well Drilled Ryan to Eye Material Under Fire The first touch of competitive football for South's Varsity' squad will take place tonight at Granite High School. The meet will be a scrimmage and will be of no great importance, but it will enable coach Pat Ryan to see better what kind of material he has. "A" gridders journey to Bing-ham on Sept. 25th and are expect-ed to have practice games with several other schools before the opening of league play, October 14th. Coach Ryan has been drilling the fellows largely on blocking and whether it will be effective re-mains to be seen. In comparing East's and South's "A" squads there is no great difference. Mickey Oswalds brood has a slight advan-tage over South in weight, and numbers, but, no advantage that can't be overcome. West has a more decided advantage, having 6 first stringers returning and that in-evitable weight. The squad as it now appears follows: Brown L; Lignell L, Bott L; Marchant L; Birdsall L; McGie L; George L; Moss L; Child L; Can-non L; Dods B; Neeley B; Newman L; Empey L; Gempler B; Pater-so- n B; Graehl B; Oborne L; Grang-er B; Parker B; Paul L; Shaw L; King L; Spjut L; Lund B; Kil-bour- ne B; Leake B; Lythgoe L; Stoll L; Eskelson L; Terry B; Walkingshaw L. fC SQUAD SETS WASATCH TILT Long Confident; Won't Predict Tussle's Score Coach Nate Long's midget squad will contend with Wasatch Academy next Friday, September 25 on the Cub field. This first bit of competition will show Coach Long the strong and weak points of his "C" squad. In comparing Harold Johnson's Ecide "C" team, there is no im-mediate advantage. Although Coach Johnson's team is fast and accurate, the Cub gridders have an advantage in weight and num-ber. Dick North, Cal "Wee Wee" Hathenbrook, Russel Mears, and Clyde Oliver will decidedly give the Cub grid machine an advantage on the other squads this year. Other men to watch in the game against Wasatch are Howard Niel-so- n, Rex Ballard in the backfield and Bob Story, Harry Erskine, and Bob Nielsen on the line. These men were outstanding on the "B" squad last year and will definitely give South a winning team this season. Coach Long expects to win from Wasatch next Friday, but as yet has made ito predictions as to how the score will run. Here is the ,C team roster: C Oliver, L.. Hartman, B. Van Ry, S. Schoenfeld, K. McLaren, D. Dean, B. Dell, ends. R. Myers, B. Nielsen, H. Erskine, B. Story, G. Funtas, S. Fivas, R. James, R. Schofield, B. Dubbeld, H. Scott, P. Poules, E. Johnson, B. Spencer, M. Hansen, E.

CB' Squad Drills to Dislodge Weight ofTen Straight Losses Heads PC9 Squad V 111 Coach Nate Long This year's "B" team is con-fronted with the opportunity of winning their share of games, thereby completely upsetting the pre-seas- on pessimists who remind the Cubs of their ten straight loss-es. The Cubs will undoubtedly be the underdogs, but it has long been known that the underdog is often vastly underrated and can cause an upset with amazing ease. It is difficult to foretell the quality of the junior team, but those boys do possess an abundance of spirit. This spirit can well result in vic-tory, according to onlookers. Recently a visit to East by the Sports Staff gave a conception of what the Leopards have to offer in the way of competition. One thing was noted in particular. Scribe found it difficult to dis-criminate the "B" team from the senior squad. That gives a fairly clear con-ception as to the size of the Red and Black "B" team An often used saying, "The bigger they are, the harder they fall" may well be the Cubs answer when East and South meet on the gridiron. Time will tell. Early season observations show that the Cub backfield although not hefty has speed to burn. Should these observations become realities in actual play, Southern-ers will have plenty to shout about. While interviewing Leopard players, it was apparent that a majority had heard of a certain Hawaiian lad named Morris Wat-ers who is displaying much ability in practice sessions with the Cub "B" team. Just how talented Mor-ris is can only be revealed m league play. Coach Gilbert has a squad which is admittedly green, but boasts of potential stars. No one can tell who's who on the "B" team until the Cubs have performed. The "B" squad, numbeing 36, follows: Ends: Keddington, Adam, Mill-e- n, Carabine, Howick, Thompson. Line: An'derson, Thomas, Nagle, Brimley, Gillmar, Angelos, Hintze, Richards, Wright, McGarry, Raf-fert- y, Sandberg, Ipsen, Ostler and Sorenson. Backs: Barnhurst, Long Nichols, Weed, Gregory, Christen-se- n, Adams, Wiscomb, Waters, Averitt, Johnson and Larson Here's Correct South Grid Schedule Yes, students, there will be en-counters on the Cub gridiron this fall. The schedule printed in Scribe's first edition omitted the location of each game and gave the reader the idea that there would be no games played at South. Following is the correct schedule. West "C" at South October 15 South "B" at West October 15 West "A" at South October 16 South "C" at East October 22 East "B" at South October 22 South "A" at East October 23 South "C" at West Nov. 5 West "B" at South Nov. 5 South "A" at West Nov. 6 East "C" at South Nov. 12 South "B" at East Nov. 12 East "A" at South Nov. 13 In order to assist transportation facilities, all "B" and "C" games will be played on the same after-noon during this season. This does not necessarily mean that Southerners should not sup-port the team that performs on the opponent's gridiron. It mere-ly suggests that those Cub fans who have cars of their own might attend the away from home en-counters, while those who cannot could attend games at South. surging with joy at every South touchdown. That's the formula for victory! Frank James Says . . . Yep! PEP! South High's student body has for years upheld the reputation of possessing an abundance of vim and vigor in support of their ath-letes, win or lose. This vociferous form of expression is commonly known as PEP. Southerners don't lose that spirit! Cub gridders have been putting in long and hard practice sessions in preparation for clashes with East and West. Let's reward their efforts by every one being on hand at the opening game of the season. Every Southerner, juniors in particular, should practice all school songs and yells, especially the school song. The apparent lack of knowledge as to the wording of "On South High" has been notice-able at recent assemblies. A few HEP rallies ishjould correct this condition. TrUOpine Sports Scribes Cry For Pep, Support From Student Body By the Sportsdesk Frank Allan Says . . . "A" and "B" Support is Needed! It seeems that we of South are inclined to praise and glorify the "Mighty Midgets" and ignore the "A" and "B" teams. In my opinion, the only thing that our two heavier teams lack which East has is the entire support of the student body! We've heard that phrase "The 'A' and 'B' squads? well, we've a mighty good 'C team." Instead, why not get behind all three teams ? It is fine to praise the "C" squad. They're doing great work! But why not make that 10 straight loss load the "B" team is carry-ing lighter by some encouraging words. Maybe the weight of those past defeats is all that keeps the team from winning. Vaughn Hendricks says . Formula for a Championship It is true that South has had trouble in winning a football championship. We say, "So what!" With the looks of our cub grid-ders this year, everyone agrees we have a bunch of fighting men. Yes, they fight, but the team with a high spirit can't win the game alone. The student body has to be in there pitching also. East and West have the idea that we can't win that we give up too soon. Are we to let that stand unchallenged you and I who sit on the bleachers without giving our heart and soul to the cause of victory? If you have school spirit, you'll be out at every game cheering your lungs out with the cheer-leaders dying with the boys on the field at every opponent's score j Sports a la Femme Hockey Highlights Gals' Gym; Tennis, Softball, Showers Also Claim Femmes' Interest By Marge Wallin Hockey one, hockey two, hockey three.
