1950 WEBER COLLEGE FOOTBALL PROSPECTUS Weber College gridders this season are hard at it, adjusting to a hard-hitting single wing formation. Head Coach Mecham feels that the material in the Wildcat Line this season is better adapted for the wing instead of the customary Weber T. Weber has employed the T formation for four years to good advantage. Mecham has some good backfield prospects in the form of returning lettermen Merrill Shupe, Rod Pollard, Ken Worton, Albert West, and Max Prescott. Some local talent from the high schools will also be unveiled. Weber has garnered its share of high school athletes this season and several of them are looking terrific in pre-season workouts. Running from the fullback spot this year is big Charlie Kalani who will be aided and abetted by Dick Faulkner and Junior Bybee, freshmen hopefuls. Assisting Shupe and Pollard at left- half positions this season will be all-state halfback Jack Andrews from Ogden high. Holding down right-half positions are lettermen Claude Mills and Freshman Judge Hawkes, also from Ogden high. Looking big and mean on the Weber line this season will be returning lettermen, Norvin Butler, Eli Keolanui, Dale Gardner, Sonny Brae, and newcomer Ray Smith. The Weber line will not be as heavy this year but it will be faster and more adaptable. The backfield will be heavier than last season and at least as fast. Weber will not be as deep in reserves as last year. At writing, the Weber team has not been affected by the Korean war. Should the Ogden national guard be called out as have the Logan, Salt Lake, and Cedar City guard units, several Weber team members will be called to duty. Weber has one of the toughest, yet most colorful, football schedules in Wildcat history coming up this year. The Mecham coached squad will take on tough little Carbon College from Price, Utah, in the opening game of the season, September 15, at Ogden. Carbon gave Weber a nip-and-tuck battle for four quarters at Price last year and the Weber men are not looking for a pushover in the form of the Carbon Eagles this season. Following the Carbon game, which is an I. C. A. C. conference tilt, Weber will match power with Ricks College of Rexburg, Idaho, in another conference game on the Ogden turf. Ricks garnered a berth above Weber in conference play last year and holds forth the promise of giving the Wildcats a tough ball game. September 29 will bring Boise College to Ogden for what promises to be one of the most colorful games on the Weber schedule. Boise has drubbed Weber for three years, much to Webers dismay. The Boise machine has plowed through two complete seasons without a defeat and has an unbroken string of thirty-one gridiron victories, an enviable record in anybodys book. Weber will point for the Boise game this year. Two colorful Pacific Northwest teams will wind up the Weber home schedule. October 6 Oregon Tech. will test Weber and October 27 Clark College will conclude the home schedule. Oregon Tech. is located at Klamath Falls and Clark College at Vancouver, Washington. In mid-October Weber will travel to California to meet junior college football giants Compton College and John Muir College. By all odds, Weber holds forth little promise of upsetting either of these traditionally powerful clubs, but California opponents usually bring out the best thats in the Weber squad and some classy football should be the result, win, lose or draw. Weber will also hit the road to play Idaho at Albion and Branch Aggies at Cedar City in conference encounters. How Weber will fare in these games will probably depend on how badly (and if) they are shaken up from the California trials. Weber will end the season with a return trip to the Golden State where they will play College of the Sequoias of Visalia, California in the Silver King Bowl game. Visalia is X, the unknown quantity on the Wildcat schedule this season. At any rate, Weber will point to give a good account for the Purple and White in the bowl.
