l l FGGTBALL The Cyprus Pirates concluded one of the most successful gridiron campaigns ever waged with a third place ranking in the strong jordan District. Cyprus won four games and lost three. The team was imbued with the will to wing consequently their high morale carried them to victories. Coach Magleby had a light gridiron machine which had to rely on speed, versatility, and strata- gem. From the beginning of the season the Pirates were hampered by injuries and had an exceedingly small group of gridders, but the team was a feared one in all of its league games. Cyprus played host to Murray in the opening game, and in a startling upset de- feated their touted foes. The game was a terrific battle in which the Gold and Blue team repulsed their larger foes by a score of 12-6. The Pirate aggregation met a reversal when they encountered Jordan. For three periods their defense was impregnable with many goalline stands, but in the final canto the Beetdiggers thrusted over two touch- downs and converted both points making a score of 14-0. The hapless Cowboys of Grantsville were subjugated by Cyprus in a decisive manner. Cyprus ran up its highest score of the season, 27-0.

The values cannot be measured because they are relative, but the importance of these traits of character cannot be over emphasized. Courage, strength, initiative, loyalty, sociability, and sportsmanship are some of these traits developed by com- petition and participation in a good program of Physical Education. Our program has been truly worthwhile this year as evidenced by our boys who have taken part. - -VERTIS WOOD. ff, ,ffmlf ' o . fx ly N P ge Forty. V, Z'-7 ' ' ' , rf I ii X ,', X lf! li Xl Ali'

Cyprus with inspirational play entered the fray as the underdogsg therefore they pos- sessed a real fighting spirit, A savage strug- gle ensued with the Pirates showing unex- pected power. The line stiffened and the Granitians were repulsed on the thirty yard line. With the score 6-0 this was probably the cleanest, hardest fought, and most inter- esting game of the Pirate season. Bingham's fighting football team came to Cyprus in an endeavor to repeat last year's triumph. The Gold and Blue gridders playing in their last home game displayed a team with football brains and sportsman- ship. Though Cyprus defeated the Miners by a 12-0 score, it does not indicate the superiority of the Pirates that was apparent to all who saw the game. With the close of the season Cyprus was defeated in its last two encounters. Davis with a large fast team trounced Cyprus to the tune of 32-6. Cyprus scored the first touchdown which was their only tally in the game. Tooele, arch rivals of Cyprus ran rough- shod over their lighter foes with a score of 42-13, The enthusiastic and victorious begin- ning of the football season was responsible for the Pirate standing which upset all prognostications of the team.
