Show Whitesides Cowley Thomas Wilkins Pierson FOOTBALL The 1937 Weber College football team ended the season with both the Utah State and Intermountain Jaysee title in its possession. The Intermountain championship came through the failure of Albion to participate in three or more conference games. Weber successfully competed with three state junior colleges, but found tough competition when it met out-of-state teams. The freshmen of the Utah State Agricultural College defeated Weber. WEBER 25, B. A. C. 0 Weber College opened its 1937 football season with a smashing 25 to 0 decision over the Branch Aggies of Cedar City. The team pushed over touchdowns in all periods to win handily. The Wildcats continually had the Aggies backed against their own goal posts, and three other touchdowns were disallowed for violation of the rules. WEBER 18, DIXIE 0 Dixie's chances for the junior college championship were mired in the mud at St. George. The Weberites literally swept the Flyers off their feet with crashing line plays and open field running. The game finally ended with Weber on the long end of an 18 to 0 score. WEBER 4, COMPTON 13 After leading the Compton Tartars 4 to 0 at the end of the first two periods of play, the scrappy Weber eleven was finally defeated in a hard fought contest, 13 to 4. For this game, the second of a home-and-home series, the Wildcats journeyed to Compton, California. With a weight advantage of better than eighteen pounds per man, the Tay Brown machine opened up with a dazzling passing and running attack in the final periods to eke out their victory.
