Show SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 4, 1933. Minson-Mecham Are Outstanding Stars For Brigham Eleven Tigers Show Power In First Period, But Fold Up In Closing Quarters Ogden High's football champion¬ship aspirations were shattered com¬pletely at Brigham City Friday when the Tigers bowed before the well coached Box Elder machine, 21 to 6, on a water soaked gridiron. The Tigers, heavy pre-game favor¬ites, outplayed the Bees in the first half but were badly outplayed in the closing periods of the heated struggle. The victory places Box Elder and Preston in a deadlock for the region title with four victories and no de-feats each. The Bees decided the league en¬counter in the first three minutes of play. Maero scooped up the open¬ing kickoff and ran the ball 70 yards before he was brought down. With the ball on the Ogden 16 yard line the Bees needed just five line plays to account for their opening touchdown. Mecham hit off tackle for the first tally and Mecham place kicked for the extra point. Ogden's only score came in the second period. After a sustained drive had carried the leather to the Bee six yard mark, Burbidge, behind perfect interference raced over the goal line. A feeble attempt to convert from scrimamge failed At this juncture of the game Box Elder led 7 to 6. Ogden gained nine first downs in the first half as against only four for Box Elder. In the final half Ogden listed but two first downs and Box Elder. tallied seven. SAD MISTAKE The Tigers made the sad mistake of waiting until fourth down to punt while deep in their own territory in the third period. The punt was blocked and although Kennedy re¬covered for the Tigers, the Bees were given possession of the leath¬er on the 30 yard line. Mecham raced through the center of the Tiger forward wall for 15 yards and on the next play Minson circled the Ogden left end for the second touchdown. Three Ogden players permitted Minson to travel unmolested for the second score. Mecham again booted a perfect placement. In the closing period Ogden open¬ed up with a passing attack while deep in her own territory and this paved the way for the final Bee score. The Brighamites intercepted the leather on the Ogden 36 yard line and worked the ball to the Og¬den four yard stripe. On fourth down Minson went off tackle on one of Earl Ferguson's famous plays to score. Mecham again booted the placement. The Tigers tried frantically to score in the closing period and while they completed a number of forward passes they failed to get within striking distance of the Box Elder goal line. Box Elder, on the other hand, had the leather on the Tiger 14 yard stripe when the final gun blasted to end the game. Earl Ferguson's aggregation play¬ed heads up football all the way and deserved their victory. Mecham was the outstanding performer in the backfield for the winners. Minson also starred. On the line Warburton stood out for the Bees. LONG GALLOP Kennedy listed a 40-yard gallop for one of the thrills of the. game and was the outstanding Ogden performer. The husky back sparkled throughout the game. The Bees of 1933 are a typical Ferguson coached aggregation. They continue to use, and with fine re-sults, the off-tackle smashes that have played havoc with many an Ogden team and appear to be serious contenders for the division and state title. Ogden's gridders Friday appeared to be overconfident. The triumph of the Bees was a decided upset, but they were the better team Friday. Summary: BOX ELDER OGDEN N.

THE LITTLE BROWN JUG On Armistic day the Ogden Tigers and the Weber Warriors clash in the traditional gridiron classic for the little brown jug. It has become a bit of a custom of these schools to once a year meet in gridiron battle in defense of this grand little trophy. During the time that the Jug has been in circulation both Ogden and Weber have placed splendid teams in the annual battle, As a result this trophy has been sheltered in the cases of both schools. Because of a victory over Weber last fall the Brown Jug has been at Ogden during the last year, Now the time comes when Ogden and Weber renew their annual battle of the gridiron. From the splendid showing of our football team so far this season there is a bright possibility that Ogden will retain the Brown Jug for another year. As the members of the student- body, we encourage our team to put forth their best efforts on Armistice day when they meet Weber.—Blaine Larson. SAYINGS OF THE DAY "I forgot the lesson." "I didn't have time to study." "I forgot my pencil." "Shall we write on both sides of the paper?" "I didn't hear the question." "How shall we fold our paper?" "Do we have to write in ink?" "I lost my outline." "Somebody stole my theme." "May I borrow some paper?" —J. W. P. Note: (How many of these say¬ings have you used J. W. P.?) CARPE DIEM Carpe Diem is now proud and happy to announce its pledges who were formally accepted into the club at the Pledge dinner last week. Our two splendid seniors are Ruth Dyer and Barbara Weeks, whom we are pleased to welcome into our midst. The humble but clever junior girls are Dixie Scowcroft, Majorie Boyle, Ruth Lavin Cragun, Clara Young, Jane Davis, Emily Merrill, Dorothy Dean Hoggan, and Valine Checketts. We feel that evrry one-rftL these girls will benefit and add to Carpe Diem, while at the same time they will derive much happiness from the work and pleasure in which they participate with the club. Here's to a year plentiful witn loyal club spirit and true friendship.—Carpe Diem Reporter. CLASS ENTERTAINMENT Shaking knees! Red to the gills! Fingers tightly crushing notes! Of course, such emotions as these are now all forgotten. Instead, we listen to students who with good diction and evident self-control, not only deliver their talks well, but skill¬fully illustrate them. Just to let the outside world know what is taking place during the fifth period in room 304, I will briefly explain a bit of the enter¬tainment received therein. One girl very cleverly told of the origin of bathtubs. You would honestly be shocked to learn how unsanitary our ancestors were, for even in the late '80's only the rich could afford bathtubs, and the com¬mon people did not care enough about cleanliness to take baths. Another student skillfully made a beautiful corsage right before our very eyes, explaining each process as she went through it. (I certainly envy teacher because he received the corsage). The other talks gave information about the ultra violet ray, the microscope, modern explorers, the prehistoric world, how to start out in business, how to become a car¬toonist, how to use our library | correctly, etc. I think it would be a good plan' for the students to invite their friends and parents to visit school on "talk" days. Don't you?—Felipa Pajaro. JUST IMAGINE Mr. Peterson without his daily joke! Mrs. White's hygiene lessons without a good story! Mr. Hansen not blushing! Mr. Ed Smith not teasing some poor damsel! Mrs. Newcomb without her educa¬tion! Miss Poulter without her Unit Outlines! Miss Corless not in a hurry! Grace smiling at us when we enter the office! Mr. Merrill forgetting to call somebody to the office! Major Dyer without his uniform! Imagine "us" signing our names. —The Tiffingtuffers. |
