plunge made one yard. They tried the
line rush again, and this time Jumbo
Hunter got into the game so effectively
that from the hillside it seemed that
he had spilled the entire Idaho team.
So they kicked, and Ned Cheeley raced
the bal back ten yards.
GREAT PUNTING.
Then Hahn kicked forty or fifty
yards down into the Idaho territory.
TO 0 FOR IDAHO.
Idaho took the ball. They were on
W.S.C.'s S thirty yard line. Twice
they tried the crimson and gray line,
and twice they were thrown back for
loss. At this time the two teams
were battling squarely in front of
the goal posts. Idaho signaled for a
kick, and Small sent the ball squarely
between the goal posts, making the
score A to 0 in favor of Idaho.
PUNTERS AT WORK.
Both teams now began punting.
Idaho rarely attempted to hold the ball
for more than two downs, since they
invariably failed to either go through
the W.S.C. line or around the ends. A
few minutes after Idaho had scored,
they kicked far down into the W.S.C.
field, and in one play succeeded in
HD1y H., I'll. L.
got away for fifteen yard run.
Following this, the State College men
were twice held. Hahn then kicked
fifty yards Idaho got the ball and
returned a sidewise kick, which was
saved by Cave. In two plays WS.C.
failed to make satisfactory headway,
so Hahn punted forty five yards.
Idaho came back with fifty yard
punt, and succeeded in recovering the
ball in the W.S.C. territory. In
their first attempt at yardage they
were held; then they made eight
yards. Fearing to try for yardage
again, Small kicked thirty five yards
down into the crimson and gray terri
tory, and in a magnificent run, Cave
raced the ball back twenty yards.
SIXTY YARDS THROUGH IDAHO
TIE RRITORY.
At this point it seemed that the
State College men begun to discover
what they were in the game for. They
made one yard against the silver and
gold. Then Cave made a dashing run
of fifteen yards. Another play re-
suited in sixteen yards for the Grim
son and gray. The State College men
hung together like swarming bees,
dragging the runner far down into the
Idaho territory after he had been
battered off of his feet by repeated
unsuccessful tackles. In the next play
W.S. C. was held. Then they made
l6 yards; 2 yards 7 yards, held
yards held and were on Idaho's ten
yard line. And the rooters for the
crimson and gray. thousand and
more, were cheering themselves hoarse
and breathless.
BAD OUTLOOK FOR IDAHO.
While the Idaho pennants on the
side hill futtered nervously or hung
inert from nervously upraised canes,
Jack Foran, W.S.C.'s trusty quarter
back, signalled for try at goal.
The ball went true. and the score stood
to 4.
During the remainder of the half
W.S.C. made about 60 yards against
the Idaho team. In one play they
were thrown back for a loss of five
yards, and once were penalized for
Is yards. There was rapid exchange
of kicks. each team trusting to luck to
get within striking distance of the
other goal. The half ended with the
ball squarely on the 55 yard line with
in few feet of the spot from which
it had been punted in the opening
kickoff.
SECOND HALF.
w hen the second half was well un-
der way the usual exchange Of punts
being in progress, an event occurred
which in all probability lost the game
for W.S.C. This was the alteration
which resulted in Halm's being re-
