Both teams were evenly matched, because they were practically new at the game. The first half ended by a score of 9-10 in favor of the High School. The second half started fast, with Weber doing the best passing. This game seemed to be just a contest between the foul pitchers, as each team only made four field baskets. Belnap made 12 out of 20 free throws, while Fuller only made 9 out of 18. Richards played the star game for Weber, making the four field goals. WEBER. Lineup. O. H. S.

On the evening of February 18, 1914, the B. Y. C. team of Logan was victorious. Nearly every member of the Weber team was a "Prodigal" and had very little practice. They lost all interest in basketball, while the B. Y. C. team was in good condition and not over-confident. The score at the end of the first half ended with the B. Y. C. in the lead, 18-8. Weber began to get into her old form in the second half and played better ball. Each team scored ten points, which made the final score 18-28 in favor of the B. Y. C. ACORN 21 B. Y. C. Lineup. WEBER.

The ocasion was the great return game that was to be played between Brigham and Weber on the former's floor. Nearly the entire Student Body with the team left on the 5 :30 train for the beautiful Peach City, which they took possession of as soon as they arrived. The Brighamites thought it was a second Peach Day. The game began promptly at 8 o'clock, and was witnessed by more than one thousand people. "That was some game." Weber went after their heavier opponents with "hammer and tongs" and soon had those "Peach City lads" looking sick. The first half ended Weber 17, Brigham 10. In the second half Weber started in the same old way, but gradually Brigham's superior weight began to tell. Weber fought desperately to stem the tide of defeat that slowly, yet surely, crept upon them. The final score gave Brigham the decision. Weber made 8 field baskets, as compared with Brigham's 6, but lost on fouls, Brigham scoring 12 and Weber 6. The individual scores were: Field baskets Belnap 3, Layman 3. Richards 2, J. Jeppson 1, N. Jeppson 1, Josephson 3, and Jensen 1. The following are some of the remarks picked up from reporters, faculty members and others: "That was the best game I have ever seen." "It's too bad the best team can't win." "It was only their strength, and not their superior playing that won." The most notable feature of the game was the excellent guarding of Herbert and Wilde, who played the game in great style. Weber 30 Ogden High 23 Friday, February 27, about 500 Weber and High School rooters witnessed at the Weber Academy a very interesting game between the representative teams of the two schools.
