Show COMPTON vs. WEBER Greatly out-weighed but never out-fought, the Wildcats bowed to the Compton (California) Junior College Tartars 26 to 0 in an intersectional contest at Ogden. After battling on even terms for three quarters, Weber withered under the barrage attack of the opponents' heavier team and disrupted what had been a closely fought game. On three occasions Weber had penetrated within Comptons five goal line, but each thrust was terminated by a stalwart Tartar defense. Compton caught Weber at the season's weakest because of injuries sustained in practice. RICKS vs. WEBER The smarting defeat by Compton prompted Weber to pound Ricks College unmercifully in an Armistice Day battle at Idaho Falls. Weber scored its first touchdown before the game was two minutes old and climaxed Littlefield Healey Page Carruth Parrish WEBER vs. COMPTON Motion picture film reveals completion of two runs. the game spectacularly with a touchdown drive that netted 90 yards in 10 plays. The final score was Weber 31, Ricks 13. ALBION vs. WEBER The championship game encountered various obstacles which threatened its materialization. Newspapers even reported that Weber had won the championship via the forfeiture route. Finally the teams got together at Albion. Albion immediately proceeded to annex the title. Weber out-classed the champions in all departments of the play, recording 14 first downs against Albion's 4, yet the 26 to 13 score indicated Albion's superiority. Clements Miller |
