Show The Engineers demonstrated their ability with the paddles by winning the team Intramural Ping-Pong Tournament. Although pressed by the other teams, the Engineers drove on to win with a 3-1 victory over Publications in the final match. Team members were: D. Lochtrog, B. Venable, J. Barton, and H. Coray. FRESHMEN VS. SOPHOMORES In order to settle traditional conflict between the Freshmen and Sophomore classes the annual water fight was held in South Fork early in the fall quarter. By twice pulling the Freshmen through the waters of the Ogden River, the Sophomore class of 1937 merged victorious. But not to be discouraged, the younger students demanded and received a return conflict with the victors. This contest was in the form of a sand-bag rush, and was held between the halves of the football game with U. S. A. C. Frosh. An overwhelming defeat was administered to the Sophomores, who were able to capture only one out of twelve sand-bags. FOOTBALL The final inter-class battle was on the Ogden High gridiron. For an hour the two foot- ball teams fought; the ball was carried back and forth the length of the field, but neither team was able to register a goal. The contest ended in a 0-0 tie for the second successive year. The physical display of powers which pitted the Freshmen against the Sophomores ended in a draw, each class winning one and tying the third. The activities were enjoyed by those who participated. |
