Show ORVAL CARSTENSEN MALCOLM WATSON YARD L. TANNER ATHLETICS WHILE possibly not as brilliant as last year's, the efforts of the athletic department have been decidedly successful and have maintained the standards raised in the past. In all phases of athletic endeavor, Weber has been ably represented and has held her place among the leaders of sportdom. Perhaps the outstanding feature of the year was the introduction of football into Weber sport circles. This activity, tho new, proved very popular with the fans and received enthusiastic support from the student-body. Coach Watson and the team cannot be too highly com- mended for the showing made. Tho starting with entirely green ma- terial, the team soon gained the respect of its rivals by its remarkable development and by the close of the season was rated as one of the five best in the division. The basketball team state champions for 1918-19 suffered a set- back when defeated by Davis High for division honors. Weber's loss proved a severe disappointment to all, as she was picked as a likely contender for state honors. However the defeat was no disgrace as the victory of Davis who, by the way, won the state championship, was effected only after a hard struggle. On the whole, the showing made by the basketball squad was of a very high standard. Weber was successful in winning second place in the state baseball league last year and from indications at the present writing, bids fair to supass her record. With practically the same team back in harness and going strong, much can be expected on the diamond. While no track work has been fostered, several minor sports have met with fair success. Several boxing and wrestling carnivals have been staged at which our "pugs" have displayed their wares. Girls baseball and a cross-country run, won by Ira Terry, were features of spring athletics.
