Championships ate grid rivalry started in 1903.

Colorado has 17 wins in the series and there have been two ties. Start Out Even The teams fought on fairly even terms for the first quarter with one unconverted touchdown for each. Utah went the lead in the second with another touchdown, put across three more in the third, period and went into the fourth stanza with third and fourth teams but stiU managed to tally 13 The most spectacular play of the game came within two minutes after the kickoff when Izzy Spector, the outstanding back on the star-studded Utah team, cut inside the Colorado left end behind perfect interference, crossed the field, then' returned to the middle of the turf and made a bee-line for the goal, which he crossed standing Colorado came back to score its six points five minutes later. The Buffaloes had the ball on the Utah 47. Quarterback Maurice ReUly dropped back to midfield and lofted a pass to End Stan Hendrickson on the Utah 23.

Hendrlckson juggled the ball, accidentally tossed it into the air but caught it before it- hit the ground and ran over for a touchdown. Kicking Duel A kicking duel between Woody Peterson of Utah and Paul Mc-Clung and Vern Lockard of Colorado featured play until two minutes before the end of the half with punting distances about even but Colorado getting the edge on returns. Just before the half, the Utah Addelt brothers' team went into action. Huck Adelt tossed a pass from his own 45 to Gay Adelt on the Colorado 27 and Gay went over for the score. The third quarter was plain massacre for the Indians.

three-period touchdowns came on a pass from Gay Adelt to Mecham on his own 13 after a sustained march, on an end-around by Mack Speedie from the Colorado 26 after a fumble by Colorado's famed Paul McClung and on a pass from Mecham to Speedie that resulted in an interference penalty to the Colorado one, Mecham going over for the score. In the fourth quarter every man. on the Utah suad saw service. The first touchdown in this period was on a pass from Huck BIG SEVEN STANDINGS W. L.

Hardly had play resumed when Orr made a one-handed interception of another Aggie pass in midfield. The Aggies held and BYU was forced to punt for the first time in the game. Dee White-sides fumbled the kick on the BYU 20 and Tibbetts recovered for the Cougars.

Orr rifled a pass to Jim Hecker who was, downed on the one-yard line as the half ended. In contrast to the first half, the third period was played almost entirely in midfield, being featured only by the Aggie lone drive which consisted of a long pass, Silcock to Wood. Wood was nailed on the Cougar 17. That was as far as the Aggies got and BYU took the ball on downs after Tibbetts, Mills and Lewis smothered Silcock's fourth down pass attempt. A 48-yard drive gave the Sons of -Brigham their final touchdown in the last quarter.

Orr faded back and passed to Mel Anderson who gathered in the pigskin on the Aggie 14 and ran to the nine. Anderson made three on a reverse, the Aggies were penalized five yards for too many times out find Jerry Marking plunged over for the score. Lloyd kicked jhe. extra, point. th fourth straightBYU conversion.

From the opening kickoff it was apparent the Cougars were flue for a field day, although they were goal shy the first three times they threatened. After one minute of play Gail Lewis recovered an Aggie fumble on the Utah State 31 and Long-hursts and Gardner drove to the six-yard line where the Aggies held. Utah State punted out but Grant Mulleneaux threw a long pass to Chipman who was tackled on the Aggie 10. George Wing fumbled and the Aggies recovered on the five. Again the Farmers punted out, but once more the Cougars drove back, Wing passing a.

long one The victory over the Colorado Buffaloes, previously unbeaten in conference play, put Utah, de fending Big Seven conference Champion, on top of the Mountain States circuit standings along with Brigham Young university. Neither the Utes nor BYU has lost a conference game, although Utah has been tied twice and BYU but once. It was the 16th victory for Utah over Colorado in an intercollegl- to Mills who was downed on the Aggie 10. The Aggies braced and took the' ball on downs on the three-yard line. After that the Cougars apparently became 'tired of being thwarted and began their second period scoring iorgy.

Chamberlain, Bird, Nflsen, Lewis and Mills were BYU standouts on the line with Longhurst stealing the spotlight in the backfield. For the Aggies, Wood, Silcock, Whitesides and Axelgard looked best. Coach Eddie Kimball of BYU, said following the game, "It -was a hard-fought game. The boys played good ball. I am happy that we came out without any serious injuries." Dick Romney, Aggie coach; "BYU had too much power for us.

I rate this team the best the Cougars have ever had. However, we were hampered by the loss of Mel Manning, Marv Bell and Bill Twitchell who were out with injuries. The BYU-Colorado game should be a beautiful one. Both teams are powerful but I believe the Cougars have more speed." Lineups: BYU Aggies Mills le.

Lincoln has only to hurdle the weak Spanish Fork team to clinch the Class title, and the Tigers showed they have the power to down the Forkers by tripping American Fork Cavemen Friday, 7-0. Provo's 32-13 triumph over Pay- son in the stadium boosted the Bulldogs nearer the league title and a triumph over Sprlngville this week will move the Green Wave into the state semifinals. Vikings Triumph Pleasant Grove remained in the running for the class title by turning back Spanish Fork, 25-20, with a thrilling last-minute touchdown victory. Lent stepped out of regional competition and was promptly slapped down by Park City, 12-0. The Provo-Payson game was a rough, slam-bang thriller, featuring long runs, intercepted passes, and a fierce rivalry.

Bulldog power conquered over Payson I speed and fight but not until after the Lions, sparked by an elusive fullback, B. Fowler, gave the Provo club a real scare. Provo scored a touefhdown in each the first three periods, then threatened by the Lions, two across in the final stanza. Bulldogs Pass-Passes set up the first Buldog score, with Chad Clark passing to Garth Ford and then to Ken Duke to place the ball on the Payson 13 shortly after the opening kickoff. Mark Nilsen cracked over center for the score on the first play, then converted.

It was Nilsen who set up the second score by blasting through the center of the line for a 2-yard romp, and Clark scored off-tackle from the 10-yard stripe, and Nilsen again converted. Long Bon-Alter Clark rambled 63 yards to place the ball deep into scoring territory, the half ended to half a Provo drive, a blocked kick on the Payson 25 set up the Provo touchdown in the third quarter. Clark passed to Duke on the 15, and then went around end to7 score The kick was Then, the Payson tcUib, which has been- threatening to start fireworks all afternoon, really began clicking. Fowler, a sub fullback, exploded through the line on one of the Lions' quick-opening plays and romped down the sidelines 60 yards to score. Fowler Again 1 Again Fowler carried the mail, packing the ball SO yards to the Provo 25 on two plays and scoring on a reverse from, 'the 13.

Clyde Heath converted," pushing the Lions to within 13-20 of the Then, Payson' threatened again and seemed headed for the tying touchdown when what might be called the turning point of the game occurred. Mahlon Rasmuson grabbed a Lion pass on his own 10-yard line and raced it back to midfield to pull Provo out of a bad hole. From there on down the field, Rasmuson plunged the middle, swept the ends, and ripped off-tackle to lead his team to an other touchdown. After leading Interference most of the afternoon, Rasmuson scored from the one-yard marker. Longest run of the day was Rasmuson's 72-yard jaunt which was called back.

Final Score Provo's final score came just before the end of the-game. With the clock ticking off the closing seconds, i Provo called time out after every play, losing five yards on penalties each time but managing to score on a pass from Chad Clark to Leon Ford. Lincom capitalized on an early break to score, against "American Fork then staved off Cavemen threats to move closer the title. i Tigers Get Break A Tiger punt rolled out on the A. F.

An overwhelming majority of all appointive officeholders are and have been Republicans, as well as the common laborers employed.
