MISSIONARIES
ARE PREPARED
FINISHING TOUCHES WILL BE
PUT ON IN TONIGHT'S
PRACTICE.


season will be played between the
eleven from Spokane high school and
the one from the local college. The
game is called for $50.
At the practice game between the
two elevens last night, the second
team captained by Brubake~, rubbed
it into" the first team to the tune of
6 to 5. Brubaker by a series of plays,
all of the same nature and all run off
by the same signal, which the first
team knew we'll, ran his team down
he field for a .tOuchdawn in spite of
the big varsity to prevent it. This is
some indication of the strength of the
second team the college has and also
shows that some of the plays the To-
cal cOllegians are to work will be
hard for the Spokane aggregation to
break up. Brilliant playing was much
in evidence in last nights scrimmage.
Brubaker, Stanley, Borle ske, Brain
ara and Warren Belt showing up
Philbrook, Schmidt, Martin and "
Borleske did some great work for the
big team. Lyman is playing his usual
game quarterback defense and is the
best man in the northwest in this po-
sition
Long end runs, star plays through
tackle and perhaps a little heavy line,
bucking may be expected tomorrow.
Whitman has a speedy backfield and
it is expected to do things tomorrow
If Martin ever gets away from the
Spokane bunch, they will never be
to catch him until he places the JAIL
between the goal posts at the other
end. Borleske in practice last night,
hit the line like a battering ram and
it will be a good high school team
hat withstands the combination the
Missionaries will put up tomorrow
Philbrook is good for gains anywhere
and at any time. His 2OS pounds of
football ginger should pierce any scho-
lastic line and the Missioaries are con-
fident he can do it.
Spokane's Speciality.
On the other hand, Spokane will
probably try to make her gains by
subtle trick plays and forward passes.
This kind of work is Kennedy's .spe-
cialty and he has his men coached to
fine point in the work, judging from
last Saturdays game. Speed is an
other method Spokane is likely to use
for gains. They are said to line up like
clockwork when the clock is running
four hours fast. But they will have
to go little if they outdo Whitman in
this respect
The feeling at Whitman is of all
confidence in the bunch they will send
against the Spokane aggregation to-
morrow. While the line up has not
been announced and unless the game
gets 100 hot, various men will be tried
out, the following is something of what
may be expected to wear the maize
and blue on tOmorrows game.
The Line Up.
AT center Cooke and Clemens will be
tried. Guards will be Graham, Mathews
Wilson, and perhaps others; at tackle.
Harvey and Philbrook will probably
be tried, although Mathews may take
a chance at that position; at end, Spa
gle, Lyman, S. Borleske and Brainard
Will probably be given chances; back
OF the line the line up will be some
thing like this: Brubaker and Schmidt
at quarter; BOrleske, Martin, A. Belt
and w. Belt at half, and Rigsby and
Cushman at fullback. Changes in this
may be later announced but the situa-
ton stacks up in the above manner
this afternoon
Regarding the game, Captain Dim
mick said last night:
While I don't think the score is
going to be any big one sided affair, l
think We will come out winners with
good wide margin. The fact that
the Z. of 1. couldn't beat them means
nothing to us. We are stronger this
year and the University is a whole
lot weaker. We don't outweigh Spo-
kahe much in tomOrrow's game. but we
VIII try to teach them something of the
game Wp bavo Iaarpod ~
