SPORTSMANSH|P
AND COLORADO
Is 1t Not About Time Utah
Should Be Given Credit for
Athletic Victories?
BY WILLIAM D. RISHEL.

Isn't it about time for the press of
Colorado and coaches of the various
schools in that state to give Utah credit
for what Utah does in athletics? This
state has walloped some of the best teams
they have in Colorado on the gridiron
and on the track, but in accounts pup
lshed of the games and comments by the
coaches and sporting writers in general
Utah has never yet been given credit 1or
her work. Colorado has in turn wallopeo
Utah on several occasions, both at SAT-
Lake and in Colorado, but the teams
from the Centennial state have always
been given full praise for their VICTORIES.
The most recent attacks on TINS stdle
have been the remarks of the coaches anu
the sporting editorials on the games OF
the Denver university and the Colorado
School of Mines, which claim IL was rop-
berry pure land simple when gave tne
school from this state a victory over the
Colorado teams. Is there anything in the
general makeup of the men from Colo
RADIO that gives them license to beat
Utah men in athletics2 Why should the
Colorado coaches be any better in their
business than the men are in this state?
Why should the Colorado football Of
ficials be more honest than those who
act here? Let's see. In Utah we have
Coach Maddox of the u. of U. and
Coach TeetzeI of the B. W. Both of
nous Yost team, which all must admit
was as strong as any football organiza-
ton that ever trod gridiron. We have
Coach Walker of the A. c., Coach Babe
noch of the B. Y. c. and Coach Tobin OF
All HallOwS. This trio learned the game
under Stagg and each wears, through
right, the big c of Chicago.

Not a Questionable Decision.

There is no use ''howling'' about being
given the worst of it by the officials, be-
cause there was not a single questionable
decision made in the game that in any
way affected the final result. The score
should have been much larger in favor of
Utah, as it was this team that lost at
least three touehdowns within Its grasp
and a fourth one by the call of time
Goldens single touchdown was a fluke
pure and simple.
The press of Colorado seems to think it
strange that Utah objected to Foote as
an official FOote, it is understood here,
is an assistant coach at Boulder, and the
writer would like to ask Mr.. Foote and
the gentlemen of the Colorado press if
they consider it sportsmanlike for Mr..
Foote to even consent to act as an Of
fetal in d game which would give him
an insight into the plays that would be
son. A Utah coach would not do this.
Boulder has sent men to Utah before, or,
to be more explicit, men from Boulder
interested in the Boulder team have come
to Salt Lake with Colorado teams and
tried to get on as officials before the
Utah-Boulder game
All that Utah asks from Colorado is a
square deal Utah will go to Boulder
next month and the writer does not be-
lieve Coach Joe Maddox will insist on
taking officials from Utah to officiate in
have a chance to see the team which
honestly and fairly beat both Denver and
Golden, and if Utah is defeated the men
will accept the defeat like gamesters.
Between now and the time that game is
played Utah will not send men to Boul-
der to try to learn the plays of the Colo
RADIO team.

Say Victories Are Robberies.

Yet, with all this talent, to say nothing
of the other good men teaching athletics
in this state, who probably have not such
records as the above mentioned, but who
know their business, Colorado insists
Utah victories are robberies and the Of
ficials are dishonest This is not sports
manship, and Colorado should be too big
to permit of such things
The writer stood on the side-Iines of the
Utah-Golden and Utah-Denver games and
saw every play that was made by either
team On the side-line were several root
ers from Colorado. who were constantly
finding fault with plays and decisions
they knew nothing about. These rooters
called the game Rugby" spoke of a goal
from a place kick as a Princeton" ana
made comments on the center rush"
These same rooters returned to Colorado
and raised the cry of robbery, and it
seems to have been accented. judging
from articles in Denver papers.

Why Utah Has Won.

The Denver university was beaten by
Utah simply because Utah completely
outclassed the Methodists There was no
robbery and Utah was severely criticised
for not making the score double what it
was. The football critics in this state to
a man declared Utah did not play any
where near the game it was capable of
playing and the game it would have TO
play to be in the running for the cham
cisive victory for the home team, the pub
lie was far from being satisfied with
Utah's playing and the team generally
was taken to task for the poor showing
made in beating Denver by the small
score of "a to T.
The victory over Golden was surprise.
And in this. II must be admitted. Utah
fans were as much surprised as Colorado.
Owing to the poor showing in Utah's vic
tory over Denver, it was not thought pos
sible that the team would defeat the
strong Golden bunch. And Golden is
strong. 1t Is one of the best teams that
ever trOd a local gridron. and if Boulder
and Colorado college figure on an easy
Utah-Golden game, they had better forget
it and get down to work.
Golden was beaten because Utah was
urged to a point of desperation by the
taunts thrown at the team by the Colo
RADIO press and the Colorado coaches. The
men fought like demons and completely
carried Golden off its feet. Utah played
with a spirit that never wavered for the
full two halves.
Golden was first surprised, then mad
dened at the fierceness of the attack,
and although Golden did not know it, 1t
was beaten in the first five minutes play.

Nine Die Of Measles.

The people of Marshall county are
becoming greatly alarmed over the
epidemic of measles which now is pre-
vailing at Marshalltown. There have
been nine deaths up to the present
and more than 200 cases are reported
in that vicinity. The epidemic is
growing more serious daily and 1t is
feared that 1t may become necessary
temporarily to close the schools. Two
deaths occurred in the same house
from the disease within twenty-four
hours, the victims being the infant
son of G. w. Morgan and the five
year-old son of j. W. Cook. In both

To meet death in the same horrible
manner in which his vivid imagination
had pictured a sad end for himself in
order to arouse the sympathy of his
sweetheart, was the strange experience
of Harry L. Collins of Troop u.
Eleventh United States cavalry, at
Camp Columbia, Cuba. Collins peo-
pie live in Chicago. Collins had
sweetheart in Des Moines who Tilted
him. He disguised his hand April
and wrote letter to her, which he
igned "A Friend" In his letter he
stated that Harry Collins had been
thrown from his horse, struck on his
head and lay dying in the army hos
pital, where he continued to talk Of
her Exactly one week later, on April
IA, Collins was thrown from his horse
and injured as he had described in his
letter. He lived but few hours.
When Collins left Des Moines several
weeks ago he was on the best Of terms
with his sweetheart. She wrote to
him breaking off their relations. In his
letter describing his accident he at
tempted to make up with her.
