anything OF credit TO the state. So far
only the most disastrous defeat has
been their portion. and that, too, from
second class colleges In the northwest,
The results from the big California
teams are likely TO be heartbreaklng.
Considerable resentment Is felt I'm foot
ball circles that these men should have
been allowed to represent themselves
as champions of Utah and play as the
best thing On the state, when they put
up a game unworthy Of even a second
rate team.
On the local gudron, conditions are
lmproNngand the cloud Of doubt which
spread over the football world at the
opening OF the season Is dispeled, The
state now has six teams actively at
work In the secondary school class, and
a great many IN the grammar schools.
