They'll be going for the jugular. That's the kind of series it is, and that's where the Utes are most likely to find victory. There have been so many cliches grow out of this particular series that it's difficult to put it into words. But the rewards and punishments for victory are quite obvious. A victory for the home team would mean the Western Athletic Conference championship and a bid to the Fiesta Bowl in Tempo later in December. It would mean a string of wins that would be a new high in Cougar football. And it would mean numerous other things as well. As for the Utes, it's a chance to bring down a foe that has now played a total of eight straight league games without a defeat. It would mean a happy ending to a season that hasn't been what Utah fans had hoped it would be. And it would also mean a chance of getting out of the league cellar where they are in danger of coming to rest by season's end. For reasons best understood by the most seasoned followers of this rivalry, the two teams seem to know how to hurt each other the most, how to rob the other of what seems to be well-earned rewards. It happened last year when the Cougars stung the Utes with a 46-24 upset that pulled the Utes out of the running for the WAC title. Utah turned the trick in basketball two seasons ago, upsetting the Cougar cagers in the final game of the season at Salt Lake City. It cost BYU at least a share of the WAC title, and it came when it was least expected when the Cats were big favorites. And so it goes. This has not been a good year for the Utes. They have only one game in the victory column. And after today, they will have to close out the season against Louisiana State at Baton Rouge. Utah's lone win came at the expense of New Mexico, a team that was surprisingly hard-hitting on defense last Saturday night against BYU. The Cougars, meanwhile, have had to make a major comeback of sorts after losing their first three games of the season. In two of those games BYU didn't give up a touchdown, but saw the game slip away on the sure kicking of opposing field goal kickers. Their first league game ended in a 33-33 tie with CSU. Since then, however, the Cougars have won six straight. No major changes are expected in the BYU attack. The passing of Gary Sheide, the number one passer in the nation, and the running of Jeff Blanc will likely be featured. (Is there a better way of moving the ball or scoring touchdowns?) Utah's offense hasn't been strong. But the Utes have done it before with things like pass interceptions that were returned for touchdowns, punt returns that were converted into six points, etc. It is worth noting that this will be the 50th meeting on the gridiron between the two teams. The series began in 1922, and the Utes have a definite edge in the series - 37 wins, seven losses and four tie games. The Cougars have won the last two games, which means Coach LaVell Edwards hasn't lost to Utah since taking over in Provo nearly three years ago. Today's Halftime Tribute to Black Recording Artists The incomparable Cougar Band has certainly lived up to it's name this year having the opportunity to perform on two ABC regionally televised football games. "We thought it was great getting on TV once last year, but now we've been on twice with the possibility of a third. That's a great honor for any band," said Bruce Bastian, director of the 130 piece performing unit. "We think of ourselves of a forceful musical unit that just happens to march too", said Bastian. With the main goal of entertaining, the band has providing a variety of music and showmanship. Shows this year have featured a tribute to Provo's own musical family, the Osmonds, music of the 60's utilizing the Cougaretts and Wolfman as M.C. . . . FINE DINING SELF SERVICE SALAD BAR HOME MADE SOUPS 32 VARIETIES OF PIE . . . NORTHWEST CORNER OF UNIVERSITY MALL .7:00 A.M.-11:00 P.M. (12:00 P.M. FRI. & SAT.) The first show on ABC-TV was in Arizona this year featuring tunes from the popular rock group Chicago. Today's show is a tribute to top Black recording artists including tunes by Gladys Night and the Pips, "Midnight Train to Georgia," Stevie Wonder's "Don't You Worry Bout a Thing" and Billy Preston's "Noth'n from Noth'n." To help the Cougar Band in their reconstruction of today's popular music, they have incorporated the services of three electronic instruments, an organ, rythm guitar and bass guitar. "We're the only collegiate band in the U.S. that uses these instruemnts in the marching band," said Bastian. According to Bastian, another key function of the band is to provide enthusiasm and support for athletic events. "We must be doing okay, the team is still winning", said Bastian. "After BYU's victory over Arizona, many of the football players came over to the band and personally thanked the kids. The players gave the band credit for helping win the game.' The rugged skyscrapers of the Wasatch mountain range nudge the eastern edge of the University of Utah's 1168-acre campus. No gently rolling hills or grassy knolls here. This is canyon country with a four-season climate and ready access to the outdoors. Six world-famous resorts within 45 minutes of the campus become Winter and Spring quarter classrooms for the largest college ski program in the nation. Salt Lake City, a progressive urban and industrial center (population 565,759) at the crossroads of the West, is five minutes away. Campus and community are complementary. Students relate to the social, political and cultural life of a growing metropolitan area, and citizens share in the varied activities of the "city within a city." The University of Utah perpetuates the state's tradition of excellence in education - in innovative rat'^^r than conventional ways. Although it is the oldest state university west of the Missouri River, it is invigorated, not encumbered, by this heritage. It is free to experiment -to implement new ideas in structure, curriculum and policies. The University functions as a participatory democracy. Decisions which affect its course are cooperatively made by faculty, student and administration representatives. This open communication, tempered by sound dedication to rationality, makes the University of Utah a good place to grow. University of Utah life is as diverse as the 24,000 individuals who live it. Students from Utah's 29 counties, all 50 states and 71 different countries make their own happenings in an atmosphere of responsible freedom. Within a world as personal as their circle of friends and chosen outlets of self-expression, students contribute individually in student government, sports, theatre, music, dance, art, political and social groups and religious programs. The Utah student body enjoys traditional events like Contemporary issues, weekend stomps, football cheering sections and Sunday concerts - jazz and otherwise, and is intrigued by the here-and-now-world of Ralph Nader, Ber-nadette Devlin, Maxwell Taylor, Coretta King, Burt Bacharach, Dionne Warwick and scores more newsmakers. In a climate of dynamic independence, strongly supported by staff and faculty interest, University of Utah students work in individual ways toward the goals of self-reliance, economic self-sufficiency and the critical judgment crucial to the decision-making life ahead of them.

Shipp's Jewelry 135 W, Center Street Provo Orrin Olsen: From Question Mark To Exclamation Point Orrin Olsen has turned a Brigham Young University question mark into a strong point and the Cougars are now the team to beat in the Western Athletic Conference. In pre-season talk, coach LaVell Edwards warned about a young, inexperienced BYU line, so green that he had moved outstanding defensive end Olsen to the center spot. Olsen anchored the line in last week's 21 -18 win over Arizona State which played BYU out in front in the WAC with a 4-0-1 league record and he's the WAC Offensive Player of the Week for the November 9th weekend. He's the first interior offensive lineman to take the weekly honor since New Mexico tackle John Urban did in 1970. The Cougars were void of any interior line starting experience entering the 1974 season so Olsen was asked to make the switch during spring drills. "Orrin has not graded out at less than 80 percent in any game as a center," says line coach Dave Kragthorpe, a reputed 'tough film grader.' Kragthorpe adds, "Orrin's blocking has been great and he snaps the ball in kicking situations extremely accurately which is super considering he's learned his position in less than six months." Olsen graded out at 84 percent against the pressure placed on the line by the Sun Devil defense. "He's the finest center we've ever had at BYU," adds Edwards. The junior business management major carries a 3.70 cummulative grade point index (4.0 is perfect) and comes from a rather famous football family. Older brothers Merlin and Phil toiled for Utah State and now continue in the game with the Los Angeles Rams. Orrin began his career in his brothers' footsteps - on defense - but was redshirted after he broke his thumb in the first game of 1973. In his spare time, he sings in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and is an avid outdoorsman. He's engaged to marry Sandy Robison, the daughter of BYU track coach Clarence Robison, after the season's over. Perhaps they will have to postpone the ceremony until after a Fiesta Bowl appearance on December 28. Center Orrin Olsen (lower right) is shown with his older brothers, Phil and Merlin, who are veterans with the Los Angeles Rams. Orrin, a junior, will marry BYU coed Sandy Robison next week. Inner-views Quarterback Gary Sheide, who is pictured under pressure from Arizona State's Bob Breunig, is one of eleven seniors playing last home game today. The Cougars will lose six on defense and five on offense through graduation. The Seniors If - and it's always a big if in this series - the Cougars should win today's game, there will be some melancholy mixed in with the jubilation at the final gun. The victory would give the Cougars the Western Athletic Conference championship, which would be the cause for wild celebration on the part of the Cougars. At the same time, there are eleven players on the squad who might have reason to feel a little blue at having played before the home fans for the last time. The eleven players are all seniors, all of whom are starters on either offense or defense. Six seniors are listed on the defensive unit, and five are regulars on the offense. As you might imagine, the six on defense will leave quite a hole to fill for next year, since all but one are three-year lettermen. Leading the group is defensive tackle Paul Linford, who could be a three-time all-WAC selection by the end of the year. The others are defensive tackle Wayne Baker, defensive end Keith Rivera, linebackers Larry Carr and Doug Adams, and defensive back Mike Russell, a two-year veteran. Offensively, the Cougars will lose senior Gary Sheide, flankerback John Betham, split end Sam LoBue, tight end Tom Toolson and fullback Tim Mahoney. That, too, is a pretty good chunk of talent that will be hard to replace. Individually, each has made a great contribution to the Cougar football program. Collectively, they represent some of the finest talent fans in this area have ever seen. w This Christmas give a gift that will last a lifetime Give a BYU Travel Study tour to your family or yourself.

Booster Group Behind Athletics The Cougar Club Brigham Young University's Cougar Club has raised $144,000 dollars for the athletic programs over the past year. The highly successful year was attributed to the combined support and recruitment of on-campus and national Cougar Club members. Over the last decade. Cougar Club has evolved into the University's official national booster organization contributing hundreds of thousands of dollars for the development of the university's athletic programs. Dr. Ed Pinegar, this year's President of national Cougar Club, stated that the purpose of the club is to "foster the image of BYU nationally by: (1) promoting athletic, cultural, and academic programs, (2) providing a meaningful association and leadership experiences for its members; and (3) assisting the coaching staff in recruitment of top athletes." Dr. Pinegar stated the national Cougar Club has been involved in various projects to raise money for the university. The main focus is on recruitment of new members. "For example, every member recruited by the club, will donate $100 for the club to be used for supporting athletics," noted Dr. Pinegar. "Such examples would include travel costs in recruiting athletes, team costs, and financial aid in building better facilities and programs." Each of 15 chapters holds regular meetings to develop programs for their respective area. Their goal is to recruit new members and also find potential athletes to BYU. Along with the regional chapters throughout the nation, the campus chapter of Cougar Club continues its leadership position within the national organization. The campus chapter of Cougar Club has raised up to $30,000 a year to assist the university. Key money making projects have been the Cougar Coupon Book, Frosh- Varsity Game, Alumni Football Game, national Cougar Club recruitment and others. Ranked among the top fund raising projects averaging from $15,000-$20,000 during the school year. Not only is this well supported by students but also residents of the community. According to Dick Wilson, on-campus President, the Cougar Coupon Book sales have reached close to $15,000 already this year. The annual pre-season, frosh-varsity basketball game has been sponsored by Cougar Club for 10 consecutive years. Cougar Club recently sponsored the "You've Got to Believe" pin-up buttons to stimulate student spirit. Over 2,500 buttons were recently sold in less than 2 days. Cougar Club requires its members to be men of proven leadership ability, and dedication to the service of the University. All chapters aim in an united effort to build a nationwide and worldwide image of BYU through the promotion of athletics. COUGAR CLUB BOARD OF DIRECTORS Ed J. Pinegar (Chairman) Nolan Oswald Dee W.

ROY ROGERS FAMILY RESTAURANT 1523 North Canyon Road • Provo, Utah QThe Administration President Oaks The President of Brigham Young University is 42-year-old Dallin Oaks, who assumed the responsibilities of the nation's largest church-related institution of higher learning August 1,1971. President Oaks, a former professor of law at University of Chicago, replaced Dr. Ernest L. Wilkinson who served as president of BYU for a period of 20 years (1951-1971).

Cougar Coaches Coaching Staff In a period of just two seasons, LaVell Edwards, the 11th head football coach at Brigham Young University, has experienced the highs and lows of the game. And in that two-year period he has also established himself as one of the area's foremost coaches. He will enter his third campaign with a 12-10 record that gives him a .545 percentage. Two years ago Edwards (Utah State '52) took a team that wasn't given much of a chance for anything above survival and guided it to a 7-4 year and a tie for second place in the WAC. The showing brought Edwards Coach of the Year honors in the WAC. Prior to taking over the head coaching chores for the Cougars, he served as an assistant and defensive specialist at BYU for ten years. Coach Edwards got his start within the shadows of BYU. He was an all-state player at Lincoln High (now Orem High School). At Utah State in Logan he won all-conference honors as center and linebacker. Among his many strong points is his gift for working with other people. He has excellent rapport with the players and coaches, including opposing coaches. In fact, LaVell seems to get along well with everyone. To help with the countless chores of running a football program, LaVell has surrounded himself with a staff of assistants he calls, "the finest group of coaches I have ever worked with." Offensive coordinator is Dave Kragthorpe (Utah State '55), former head coach at South Dakota State who is now in his fifth season at BYU. Serving as coordinator of the defensive is Dici< Feit (BYU '58), a veteran of seven seasons in pro football, who is now in eighth year with the Cougars. Coach of the running backs, J. D. IHelm (Kansas '66), is in his sixth year with the Mountain Cats. Tom Ramage (Utah State '57) coached at Weber State and Dixie College before joining the staff in 1972. Fred Wliittingfiam (Cal Poly '62) played ten seasons in professional ball, and came to BYU in 1973. Dwain Painter (Rutgers '64) is the newest member of the staff, joining the Cougars this year. Me/ Oison (BYU '70) will be coaching the freshmen and jayvee team. Mel is in his fifth season on the coaching staff.

The Boot is to go to the school which was most successful against the other schools in the state or judged to be the best football team in the state. However, finding a pioneer boot was not an easy task. Pioneer boots, it was discovered, were worn until they were worn out as opposed to today where style changes dictate the use of footwear. But there was no boot to be found. The search went out via personal calls and via radio announcements for a pioneer boot. Finally, a Cache Valley antique dealer, Tom Beasley, a USU graduate, took in a pair of boots from a resident of Hyrum, Utah. Beasley donated the boots for the Beehive Boot Trophy. The boot is known to be between 85-100 years in age. Unlike the first two years of boot competition where Utah State clearly displayed their superiority with undefeated records, 1973 found Brigham Young and Utah State tied with 2-1 records in competition while the University of Utah was 1 - 1 . Since a clear-cut winner could not be established, sportswriters and broadcasters of the state were asked to vote for the most worthy recipient of the trophy. The Aggies again were declared the winner in the balloting and maintained the boot for the third consecutive year. This year the race should again be a wide open affair. Brigham Young and the University of Utah play two boot games, Utah State plays three, and Web)er State has a single contest. November 23 will be the deciding as far as the year's boot is concerned when all four of the teams involved will play in-state opponents. 1971 USU USU Utah 1972 USU USU USU BYU 1973 USU USU Utah BYU BYU 29 21 17 42 44 20 16 10 13 31 45 46 BYU Utah BYU BYU Utah WSC Utah WSC BYU USU WSC Utah 7 17 15 19 16 16 7 3 7 28 14 22 Boot Game Records w Utah State BYU Utah Weber State 7 3 2 0 1974 Boot Game Schedule: September 21 Utah State at BYU November 16 November 23 Utah at Utah State Weber State at Utah State Utah at BYU L 1 4 4 3 1975 ammoLET.

Gardner, President of the University of Utah About the University of Utah The rugged skyscrapers of the Wasatch mountain range nudge the eastern edge of the University of Utah's 1168-acre campus. No gently rolling hills or grassy knolls here. This is canyon country with a four-season climate and ready access to the outdoors. Six world-famous resorts within 45 minutes of the campus become Winter and Spring quarter classrooms for the largest college ski program in the nation. Salt Lake City, a progressive urban and industrial center (population 565,759) at the crossroads of the West, is five minutes away. Campus and community are complementary. Students relate to the social, political and cultural life of a growing metropolitan area, and citizens share in the varied activities of the "city within a city." The University of Utah perpetuates the state's tradition of excellence in education - in innovative rather than conventional ways. Although it is the oldest state university west of the Missouri River, it is invigorated, not encumbered, by this heritage. It is free to experiment -to implement new ideas in structure, curriculum and policies. The University functions as a participatory democracy. Decisions which affect its course are cooperatively made by faculty, student and administrative representatives. This open communication, tempered by sound dedication to rationally, makes the University of Utah a good place to grow. Bud Jack, Ute Athletic Director University of Utah life is as diverse as the 24,000 individuals who live it. Students from Utah's 29 counties, all 50 states and 71 different countries make their own happenings in an atmosphere of responsible freedom. Within a world as personal as their circle of friends and chosen outlets of self-expression, students contribute individually in student government, sports, theatre, music, dance, art, political and social groups and religious programs. The Utah student body enjoys traditional events like Contemporary issues, weekend stomps, football cheering sections and Sunday concerts - jazz and otherwise, and is intrigued by the here-and-now-world of Ralph Nader, Ber-nadette Devlin, Maxwell Taylor, Coretta King, Burt Bacharach, Dionne Warwicke and scores more newsmakers. In a climate of dynamic independence, strongly supported by staff and faculty interest, University of Utah students work in individual ways toward the goals of self-reliance, economic self-sufficiency and the critical judgment crucial to the decision-making life ahead of them. Great Planes to Great Places AmericanAirlines Don McCaulley Defensive Coordinator Vince Zimmer Ends, Linebaclters Tom Lovat, Head Football Coach It's a long way from Bingham Canyon to the head football coach's chair at the University of Utah, but Tom Lovat has bridged the gap across the Salt Lake valley with relative ease. When the 35-year-old Lovat was named to head the Ute program this past January, he became the first native Utahn and the first Utah alumnus to ever fill the post of head football coach at the University. The popular Ute coach began his coaching experience at Mt. Eden High School in Hayward, California in 1961 serving as offensive and defensive line coach. The next year he moved to Jordan High School in Sandy, Utah where he served until 1964 as offensive and defensive backfield coach. That year he was named Head Football Coach at Salt Lake's Hillcrest High School where he remained until 1967. In 1966 his Huskies posted an 8-1-1 record in winning the Region III championship. Lovat moved on to the college coaching level in 1967 when he became the defensive line coach for Mike Gid-dings at Utah. The next season Lovat moved north to Idaho State where he served two years as defensive backfield coach and one year as offensive line coach. In 1971 Lovat decided to give the pro ranks a try moving to the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League where he served as a defensive coach until returning to Utah two years ago as defensive line coach under Bill Meek. Cone Offensive Coordinator Bill Dickey Offensive Line Evert Jones Defensive Line Steve Dangerfield Offensive Backs Offensive Line Jack Dozier Junior Varsity Coach With Steve Marlowe It's Performance That Counts What passes through a football player's mind when he realizes that he is in his last season and is playing his last game before the fans that have supported him throughout his career? Utah fullback Steve Marlowe is in that exact position and today's game against New Mexico is his last before his home fans, many of whom have followed his career since he was a prep star at Skyline High School. "My athletic years at the University have been the greatest time of my life," says Marlowe who can look back on successful careers in baseball as well as football. "Playing two sports has added to my enjoyment," he adds, "I've had success in both of them and it has really been fun." "The values that everyone says you get out of athletics I had already picked up in earlier life," says Steve, "but one of the most important things I have learned from playing college football and baseball is to accept people for what they are. I don't get uptight about things they do and know that I can associate with them, no matter what kind of people they are. Interaction with others, that's the most important thing I've learned. Being a star in two sports has doubled Steve's problems as well as doubled his fun. Spring was always tough because he was right in the middle of the baseball season and spring football started. This necessitated that Steve go to practice baseball early in the afternoon, after spending all morning in class, and then quickly run to the locker room, change into his moleskins and head to practice on the gridiron. How successfully he accomplished this hectic schedule can be seen by the fact that he will go down as a three-year starter in football and an All-WAC selection in baseball. JOHM SWIVET HELMOJVT Ltd.

Both pro football and pro baseball scouts are drooling over the possibilities of having Marlow play their sports, and the time of decision is fast approaching. Steve is still trying to decide which sport to go with. "It's hard to say which I would like to play. In baseball it takes a while to make it, but once you do you are set. The good thing about football is you know in one year if you are going to make it or not. Even though your body takes a beating you can be playing in the big time making $20,000 a year in football while in baseball you could kick around in the minors for five years making $500 a month and still never make it. There is no question that if you made it, baseball would be the way to go, but it's a tough decision." There is no question that Steve is wanted by both sports. The New York Mets have already drafted him twice (once out of high school and once last summer) and the pro football scouts are placing him high on their draft picks for next winter's college draft. If he does decide to go football he will have a tough time playing baseball next spring because of the spring rookie camps but as he says, "I really want to play baseball this spring so I'll just wait and see what happe
