il CBand and Orchestra We are very proud of our band and orchestra this year. They have made a remarkable record for themselves. Mr. Strong has worked very hard to help them gain this achievement. At the games the band was ever on the alert. They cheered the players on to victory with enthusiastic melodies, This is what puts real school spirit into the- players and sends them onto the field of contest with a desire to win. The orchestra furnished accompaniment for the Gpera, and gave selections between acts of the school play. They have also entertained a number of times in assembly, not only in our high school but in others. Most of these students will be back next year ready to resume their wonderful work.- Page Sixty-five

'I VANCE WALKER KEN HUFFAKER Coach Captain and Quarterback Football , The 1926 season' brought to Cyprus the first year of competitive football, and it was indeed a fvery successful season for the amateurs. Coached by Vance Walker the team -finished with honors. I Much of the success we owe to Coach Walker. He came here with high recommendations and won a place in the heart of all the boys. He in turn took interest in every man on the team and spurred them on to success. Another fact that the team held together so well and that it turned- over the victories was due to the fine generalship of Ken Huffaker, captain and quarterbackf Ken knew his football and could play it, making every play count. We must state that he received honorable' mention on the all-state football team. '- C On October 2 the team played their first game at Tooele. They got a flying start by taking the previous champs into camp with a 7-0 score. The second game was played with the L.D.S.U. at Magna, which recorded another victory, Cyprus L. D. 0. On October 15, the Blue and Gold defeated Murray with a score of 13-6. Victory again ruled for Cyprus when we went to Bingham and defeated the .miners, 33-O. On October Z9 Cyprus and Grantsville played a hard fought game at Magna. Grantsville taking the game with a 6-0 score. iNovember 8, Cyprus had little trouble in disposing ofthe L.D.S.U. in a return game with a score of 34-0. November ll brought the final game of the season when East High came to Magna and took a long, hard fought game. Score, Cyprus, Og East, 46. The Blue and Gold is proud of the record that these boys made. And being only amateurs in football experience we expect to continue to turn out real foot- ball men and add to our hrst victories. The good, clean righting spirit of the Cyprus High boys was shown on this Held of competition. , STERN Lansou. Page Sixty-six
