COLLEGE OF IDAHO THE
CHAMPIONS THIS SEASON
Defeated in clashes with larger schools
but victorious in own class.

Inability to secure games win "or
thy rivals has caused the College OF
Idaho baseball season to be cut short
er than desired by fans" OF the inst1-
tuition and the city. No more games
are to be played.
Though the college boys. lost hve
games and tied one of the ii bouts OF
the season on the diamond, they won
the triangular conference champion
ship with ease, and the record is CON
sidered quite satisfactory. For the
first time the college FLASHED with two
of the strongest institutions OF the
northwest, and that they lost four out
of FIVE games played with the Oregon
Agricultural college and the Whitman
college mines is not considered a blot
on the record.
The Southern Idaho conference
championship was won through two
defeats of the Idaho Technical lnsti-
tute and victory and a tie with the
Albion normal aggregation.
