RINGS AROUND THE UNIVER-
SITY YOUNGSTERS

Handicapped by the loss of two first
string men, Boyd Cornelison, hall
back, and Guy Mangum, tackle, and
| outweighed 10 pounds to the individu-
al, the university freshman eleven
went down battling before Gonzaga' S
powerful machine at Spokane Satur-
day afternoon. The score was 28 to 6.
From the spectatorial standpoint,
the game was featured by a 95-yard
run with which Neil Irving, frosh
fullback, introduced himself to Spo-
kane gridiron enthusiasts
Gonzaga fumbled on Idaho,s five
yard line just as touchdown seemed
certain and Irving scooped the leather.
He declined further negotiations with
the Irish until after having crossed
their line
Three of Gonzaga's scores were
hung up in the first period. The fresh
man line failed to present the proper
obstruction and the heavy Irish backs
moved straight along for gains aver
aging from five to 10 yards.
Irving was the particular Idaho
bright light, but every member of the
freshman team played hard scrappy
football. The narrative may be ma
terially altered when Gonzaga plays
in Moscow November II.

MoHNlNG ROUND

This combination was entirely too fast

a 3S, giving him a 20 for the round.
Here is his card;

His two rounds were 40 for 144
The best ball of Ouimet and Guilford
together was 66 for the last round.
Ouimet gave the best exhibition he
has ever given around New York. He
was getting a magnificent carry from
the tee, and on hole after hole his
second shot was within close putting
distance of the cup And his putter
generally did the rest.
Guilford's aid was timely. for when
Francis slipped his partner managed
to sink number of eight and ten
hooters for half or win. Kirkby
and Travers were playing well most
of the way, but they had no chance
against golf Of this type.
For example, in the Afternoon round
OuimCt alone, not counting Guilford's
aid. played the first fourteen holes in

and was over par on but one hole.
And this with the course heavy from

den, playing exceptionally well de-
spite a bad cold which had bothered
him for over a week.
