FOOTBALL men WILL
CAMP THIS SUMMER
Many Old Men Back and Prospects
Good for Winning Team


Coach Boiler, director of athletics.
The place has not been decided upon,
but several places are under advise
ment Twin Lakes, where the camp
was held last year. has no place fit
to practice on although in every
other respect it was ideal. The
boating and swimming together with
camp life and the daily practice
made the two weeks highly enjoyable
as we'll as profitable from an ath-
letic standpoint.
The squad of % men returned to
Pullman at the beginning of school
hard as nails and ready for scrim-
mage the first night out on Rogers
Field. By this means the men were
given the jump on their rivals who
did not hold training camps, and the
result showed in the work of the
men.
| Probably fewer men will be taken
on the trip this year as the mum Der
OF old men is large. Almost an en-
tire team is expected back to school,
but there are new men coming in
who will undoubtedly edge in and
give the letter men run for their
! laurels.
Captain Clark, all-Northwest CEN
ter last year, will be on the job early
He is Palouse rancher and during
the summer takes on Drawn enough
| to enable him to handle with ease
any rival he finds on the circuit.
! Other linemen who are expected
back are Langdon, Sites, Finney
and Applequist. Applequist received
broken ankle this spring which
has kept him on crutches a very
long time, but if he is able to play he
will be a tower of defense, as he al
ways has been. Sites and Finney
were first year men last year and
gained experience enough to make
them 100 per cent more valuable the
coming season. Langdon is tough,
| raw-boned youngster whose first in
! stinct Is football.
Tommy Tyrer, premier end, will
be back, but not as a player Tommy
| is tie headiest end the Northwest
| has ever produced and his counsel
will be very welcome in the State
! College quarters. His place may be
taken by Loomis, second stringer last
year, Zimmerman, who played guard
but whose natural position is at end
or backfield, or Dietz. who played
end for two years and shifted to full
back last year. Heg, the other wing
man, will be back and there is little
chance of anyone taking his job.
The backfleld will be the hardest
hit by absences. Durham, the drop
kicker who won the Idaho game
with his accurate booting at crit
ical moment, will be a candidate for
quarter. Bangs, regular at halfback
l. st year, will be out again and Dietz
is eligible for fullback again.
Either Zimm erman or LOOMS might
make good back field men also.
Coach Dietz will arrive about
! September l and will begin shaping
the destiny of the 1915 State College
football machine. His arrival is
looked forward to with a great deal
OF expectation for he comes directly
from the gridiron battlefields of the
East. Himself great player, he has
for three years been first assistant
to Coach Warner of Carlisle and in
timately associated with the game
and its greatest players He is q
disciplinarian of the very strictest
sort and he is expected to establish
methods which will be an innova-
ton in the Northwest.
He will be assisted by Tommy
4yrer and Eddie Kienholz, two of
the greatest athletes the College mas
turned out in the past few years,
both four-year men in football and
klenholz winner of letters in four
sports in one year.
Kienholz coached a successful team
at North Yakima two years ago and
last year awoke the Props here from
a several years lethargy and put
oreditable athletic teams into the
field.
Washington State should have n
great year in athletics with men like
Dietz and Doc" Boiler at the head
of affairs.
