will operate home visitors excursions
to eastern points, which will enable
settlers in the western states to visit
their old home towns. The Short

of the excursions with liberal stock
of literature regarding the communi-
ties they represent. The idea is a
very good one. Much good may be
accomplished in this manner.

Official Score-keeper Exhausted at
Close First Half-Conservative
Score Ontario 8, c. of I. 81.

The College of Idaho football team
demonstrated its class in the game
with the Ontario high school Saturday
by it's eleven units working as one
man. Coach Kyle should be compli-
mented on the team work of his men
and the men themselves on their hard,
consistent work in training, the re-
suits of which were in evidence all
through the game.
The play was little ragged in the
third quarter, but that was the time
Weaver of Ontario made his unas-
sisted 60-yard gain and such things
are little disconcerting to say the
least.
Boone made the run of the day,
taking the ball from punt near On
tario's 20-yard line and carrying it
down the side line for touchdown.
Capt. Mccormick made fine place
kick from very difficult angle on his
40-yard line, only missing by very
small margin. The college boys were
in the game from start to finish and
some excellent work was done.
The Ontario boys made some good
gains and some good tackles but they
were too light and showed lack Of
thorough coaching and at times Their
work was purely individual. Lackey
did some fine work at tackle and is
almost as fast as Boone; he looks like
mighty good end material. Boyer
Ontario's quarter, was working al
the way through and made some good
gains. Weaver is a good man, a goot
ground gamer and kicks we'll. On
tario's only score was from his place
kick. The college will do we'll to ge
these two men for next season.
