RED AND WHITE
WAVES IN GLORY
Boulder Goes Down Before the
Valiant Sens of
Utah.
SCORE OF GAME 10 TO o
REMARKABLE FOOTBALL VIC
TORY UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES.

Utah's greatest football victory was
recorded on the battle ground of many
famous gridiron struggles at Cummings
field yesterday afternoon. The mighty
Boulder team. which for years haF
marched up and down western football
fields with the naughty air of an ever
victorious army, met its fate at the
p hands of eleven Utah boys, inferior in
weight, but superior In ali those quail
ties that make the great college game
the sport of modern educational insti-
tutions. During the two short hours
of terrific struggle in mud and snow,
Utah did more to place herself in the
front ranks with other great western
schools and within the hearts of the
mass of estern people, than years of
overwork by a hard working faculty
could accomplish.
Utah Steps to the Front.
Utah had placed other states behind
in the struggle TO lead and now Colo
RADIO has met the same fate. For years
Boulder has been the thorn in Utah'S
side and yesterday Captain Fred Ben
Mon and his band of trained athletes
gave notice to the world that no longer
need there be any fear from this source.
.Utah's greatest school and it's thousand
students have waited long and patient
ly for this one Gay, when the cOlOrs OF
the red and white should wave by right
of might over tine yellow and white OF
a sister state. Last night Utah's fair
est daughters and Utah's manly young
men waved the red and white tri-
umphantly in the face of a pleased peo-
pie TO let them know victory was theirs
IL was a sweet victory, it was an an
ticipated victory, il was q victory that
the We win win" spirit of the state
university can claim full credit for.
That spirit overcame the thoughts of
past defeats. That spirit made the re-
ports Of the proves of Boulder sink
into insignificance in comparison with
che confidence in Utah.
Thousands Braved the Storm.
Those who attended the struggIe-and
there were thousands who braved the
storm-saW a sight they Will long re-
member. solid bank of red and white
lined the side lines of the field and with
trained college yells and cheers urged
Utah on TO win. Now and then a
small band of Boulder adherents would
Try TO rally the visitors. but these wells
were almost instantly drowned by the
deep decorating sound of the practiced
yell masters of the red and white. Now
aud then fallen player would find his
waning strength return as if by magic
rs he heard his name sung with praise
upon the lips of a thousand fellow stu
dents To the ordinary person this
strange sight and wild cheering may
have seemed a remarkable exhibition OF
college loyalty, to those who took part
il was their way OF helping their alma
imater win a victory.
Score Fails to Tell the Story.
When one comes to take the score. as

seem to be so great. To those who know
football and watched the unequal strug-
gle, il only shows what might have
happened had not the elements been en-
tirely on Boulder's side. With a team
trained with only one thought-speed-
Maddock's men were greatly handi-
