    UNIVERSITY OF UTAH AND COLORADO TIE salt Lake City, Utah, Nov, a. The University of Utah and the University of Colorado football teams played a nothing to nothing tie here this afternoon before a crowd of six thousand. Every manner of attack was tried by each eleven in an effort to break the deadlock, but they were always broken up. Utah came within yard of scoring in the second period. The half ended before the score could be completed. Each eleven at tempted placement and drop kicks but they were either short or broken up and no score resulted. Colorado tried forward passes galore but only very small ma jority of them were successful. Colorado had possession of the ball almost throughout the first quarter in Utah’s territory. Colo RADIO was on the defensive In the second period. Play throughout the second half was about equal. Both elevens tried many forward passes and were forced to punt repeatedly.
