messed on the Caldwell field. The
local team, though much lighter than
the visiting team, played splendid ball
every minute of the game.
The game was called at 3:l5, Boise
kicking to Caldwell. The spectators
were surprised to see the home team
blowing repeatedly through the line
OF the Boise aggregation. Line plung-
es, short and runs and forward passes
soon put the local team near the goal
line but, when within striking dis
lance, Caldwell attempted to execute
a forward pass but was interrupted
by Boise. Boise punted out and Bre-
shears caught the ball, making a spec
tacular run of 40 yards for a touch
down. Caldwell failed to kick goal.
Boise again kicked off to Caldwell and
the local boys forced the ball through
the Boise lines for gaines of from one
to seven yards with marked success
and were in the Boise end OF the field
the remainder of the hrst quarter. The
| quarter closed, however, with no fur
| ther score.
The second quarter opened with
marked and rapid playing by both
teams. Boise was soon compelled to
punt. The only spectacular thing of
the quarter was the 30-yard run BY
Breshears who received Bosses punt.
Breshears misjudged the distance of
the punt and as result the whole
Boise team was after him before he
could get off, nevertheless, through
the assistance of the interference Of

head work and determination, the ball

and few minutes later the visiting
down. Boise kicked goal. The half
closed with score of to in favor
OF the visitors. In all departments of
playing, however, it was conceded by
everybody witnessing the game that
the local team outclassed the visitors
durin gthe first half.
The third quarter opened by Cald-
well kicking to Boise. During this
quarter the advantage was with the
Boise team, who succeeded in getting
within striking distance fthe goal
on two occasions. The local team,
however, was not annoyed by the fact
that they were being forced back and
when Boise had less than l8 inches to
gain on the fourth down, she was held
for yardage. The quarter closed with
nelther side scoring. The advantage
of playing being in Bosses favor.
The fourth quarter opened and
both teams were bent on another
touchdown. During the first few min
utes of play the ball was forced by
the visitors twoard their own goal but
they were soon held for yardage and
Caldwell at once by rapid gains ad-
vanced the ball toward the goal. Due
to a tumble, however, the Boise team
gained the ball. Little Roadway was
made by plunges and Boise attempted
to execute a forward pass which was
interrupted by Braskamp Again the
local team started for their goal with
grim determination to score a touch
down. By means of a couple of line
plunges, short end run and sue
cessfully executed forward pass, the
locals advanced the ball to Bosses 20 |

Both teams have large number of |
new men in the squads this year. The |
Boise aggregation, however, had de-
cided advantage in weight but the To- |
Gals outclassed the visitors in every
department of the game, with the pos
sible exception of distance in punting |
and even here, the punts of Breshears
were markedly uniform and of good |
average distance. The visitors ex-
ecuted two complete forward passes /
and intercept one of those made by Il
the local team. The Caldwell squad
successfully executed four forward II
passes and intercepted two of those
made by the visitors. For the visitors II
the work of Davidson was worthy of
special mention. Every member of
the local team played splendid foot
ball The work of BreShearS, Bras
kamp, Undekofier and Turner was
of special mention. The SPLEEN
did fighting of the whole team during
the whole game was perhaps the most
feature to the group of
spectators. Boise went home feeling
that she had met her equal while
Coah Herman was especially pleased
with the work of his own squad.
Next Saturday the local team meets
Parma on the Caldwell gridiron.
