CONFIRMED TESTIMONY

The Kind Pullman Readers Can Not
Doubt
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test.
The test of time-the hardest test
of all.
Thousands gratefully testify.
To quick relief-to lasting results.
Pullman readers can no longer
doubt the evidence.
It's convincing testimony--twice-
told and we'll confirmed.
Pullman readers should profit by
these experiences.
H. H. Parrish, retired farmer, 80
Water ST., Pullman, says: Il had to
take to bed. The pains and
twinges through my kidneys were
something awful. l had heard of
Doan's Kidney Pills, so / decided to
try them. / found relief from the
first few doses and when | had fin
ished the box was free from kidney
trouble"
The above statement was given
June G, 1918, and on July 5, 1916,
Mr.. Parrish added: THE cure |
mentioned In my former endorse
ment has been lasting. Doan's can
surely be depended on to cure kid
ney ailments"

simply ask for kidney remedy-get

IDAHO UNABLE TO

For Fourth Time in as Many Years
Rival school Forced to Yield

Never fought yellow and White
eleven with more righteousness than

Crimson and Gray eleven into a
2ridirOn combat with greater conf
dcnCC in ultimate victory. Idaho
fought, but could not win. Wash

points to Idaho's naught, and the
unfinChing fierceness of the fight

Touchdown on First Play

Bangs went over on the first play
for touchdown, but the kickout for
try for goal failed and the score
was: w. S. c., 6; Idaho, 0.
Plastino, the Idaho center, kicked
off to Doane, who replaced Boone at
the start of the second quarter, and
he returned the ball to w. S. C.'s 40
Yard line. Quarterback Hanley cir
cled the left end for II yards and
Doane followed with seven yards
through left tackle. Bangs attempt
ID a forward pass, but it was incom-
pleted
Bangs punted 40 yards to Thomp-
son but w s. c. was given the ball
because Captain Jackson of Idaho
was caught roughing the rival play
ers. It was w. s. C.'s ball on Idaho's
2O-yard line Bangs and Doane
made eight yards each and Doane
went through right tackle for the
second touchdown. Bangs kicked
goal and the score stood w. S. c.,
10; Idaho, 0.
Plastino kicked to Doane again
and the latter placed the ball on w.
s. c. f5-yard line. Glover. Doane,
Hanley and Bangs ham mered the
idaho line for successive gains, but
Idaho finally held on her own 20
yard line. Thompson punted 40
yards and Bangs returned the ball
% yards EanIey got away for an
other nice gain and the half ended
with w. s. c. in possession of the
ball on Idaho's 30-yard line.
In the final quarter. following
Bangs 3S-yard punt to Roberts, Ida
no made her only bid for touch
down. Successive rushes by Thomp-
son carried the ball to the 36-yard
line. Breshers passed to Roberts for
II yards and Idaho rooters went wild
as they saw their team approach the
Washington State goal. On the next
play Thompson gained six yards.
Idaho was now using nine men on
the line, which was overpowering
momentarily the Washington State
defense. But Idaho's hopes went
glimmering when Roberts pass tC
Thompson was dropped by the latter
and he was downed for a loss of L
yards and Bangs punted SO yards tc
midfield. WeXler intercepted Bresh,

whistle sounded Washington State

Bangs Again

The merciless pounding of this tri-
umvirate in red failed to thrill be-
cause their skill and power had been
heralded in advance, More glory
should be theirs for overcoming a
planned defense awaiting them,
Three years ago a critic and sporting
editor declared that Bangs play
qualified him to rank with the great
est backs who ever spiked a North
western turf. Again. on the same
field, he demonstrated that he was
as powerful and keen for battle as
he was three seasons hence. That it
will be the last time Benton will DE-
battle against their eleyens must be
gratifying in no small measure to
Idaho football fandom.

Line Deserves Recognition

LINE Deserves Recognition
But to give no praise to the line
mcn for their work Saturday would
reveal a lack of appreciation. In the
three collegiate games thus far
played, opposing backs have pene-
trated our rock-ribbed defense cor a
s,ngy total of Sc yards, while these
sane toiling and unapreciated lines
men have made possible advances
from scrimmage OF approximately
1000 yards. If the future of our line
viii measure mp to the standard st
thus far. we can feel certain Of a
victorious season, unblemished by
deieat If victory comes next Satu"-
day at Corvallis the men on the line
must be given the burden of credit.
Although the Idaho cohorts fought
with customary fierceness, it was not
until the final quarter that the Yel-
low and White threatened, when they
ha!d the ball on the 1S-yard line.
On the second play, Thompson jug
gled Roberts delayed pass, dropped
it and while recovering was thrown
for loss OIL q dozen yards, which
shattered the hopes of Idaho's root
ers, who were yelling themselves
frantic, expecting a touchdown. A
few minutes later time was sounded
and the bal! was in midfield.
The Statistics
Following the kick off at 2:43
. clCck. Bangs went through right
tackle for five and repeated for 10.
Dcane followed for three yards and
hit the same hole for three more.
