Salt L axe Loses Game to Freshmen
In yesterdays game between the
Salt Lake high and the University
Freshmen the latter team won by
score OF IL to s. The contest was
devoid Of feature plays and the high
school boys were enabled TO score
at all only through a fluke play.
According to the estimation OF To-
cal football enthusiasts who witness"
ed the game the S. l.. H. s. boys did
not show a marked ability In the
game at any time. They were sue
cessful In any of the plays which
tried. several attempts to use the
forward pass being hiehly unsuccess-
full. This lack OF fast work may have
been due, however. TO the sloppy con-
dition OF the field and according to
those who witnessed the game, II was
very much on the order of old style
football.
Some Former Games Of Salt Lake.
In speaking OF the two games a
former football fan who accompanied
the Salt Lake team on It's memorable
trip to Spokane four years ago re-
called the so to defeat it sustained
but he explained that the Spokane
bows were much heavier than their
Salt Lake opponents.
This same fan also accompanied
the team to Butte following the Spo-
kane game and he recalled that the
Salt Lake boys at that time complain
ed of the rough tactics empolyed by
the members OF the Butte team He
said that Butte also outweighed their
opponents at that time but the Salt
Lake team was able TO hold down
the score.
