UNIVERSITY ENDS
FIRST WEEK OF TERM
SHOWS TWENTY PER CENT
INCREASE OVER 1910.

With a total enrolment approx
mately 20 per cent higher than any
registration in it's previous history
and with a freshman class which ex-
ceeds by 80 per cent the largest in
coming group of past years, the Uni
versity of Idaho closed the first week
of it's present collegiate year.
''The increase in new students viz
tually all of whom are freshmen is
particularly gratifying said P. H.
Soulen, chairman of the committee on
admissions, this morning. "For the
two days of registration our admis-
sions committee was swamped with
work and we continued to receive new
corners throughput the week.
zone encouraging feature of the
enrolment, from the standpoint of
the admissions committee, was the
fact that most of the new students
came prepared with the proper Gre
denitals. There were few delays be-
cause we seldom found it necessary to
investigate at length the status of
students seeking to martriculate.
"Our registration of freshmen was
particularly strong from the south
ern part of the state, several south
Idaho schools which in past years had
not been strongly represented on the
campus sending unusually large dele
cations"
Lindley hall, the new mems dormi-
tory completed this year, has been
filled to overflowing, but the prompt
response of Moscow citizens has en-
abled every undergraduate on the
campus to find a room promptly.
Most of the fraternity and sorority
houses are crowded to capacity.

MOSCOW BOYS WON
PIG CLUB PRIZES
THREE PRIZES COME TO LATAH
COUNTY-PIG CLUB CON-
TEST PROFITABLE.

Earl Clyde, son of Mrs. Clyde, of
Moscow, won two valuable prizes m
the pig club contest at the Spokane
Interstate fair, and Ardie Gustafsen,
son of Frank Gustafsen, of Sunny
side farm, won prize in the same
contest. The boys were "up against"
stiff competition, for there were S5
contests from eastern Washington
and northern Idaho, and some of
these boys were much older. The
capital prize, trip to the Interna-
ton Livestock Show at Chicago, was
won by boy who had taken animal
| husbandry and stock judging at
Washington State College, and had
been in other contests. The Moscow
boys are being congratulated on their
success.
Earl Clyde won fourth in the boar
class and fifth in the gilt class, while
Ardie Gustafsen took seventh prize
in the gilt class. Each of these boys
bought the SOW loaned to him by the
Armour Packing Company. The
price paid for the sow and second
best pig was $85.
The terms of the contest were that
Armour & Company loaned sow of
the Poland China breed Ito Latah
county members, but other breeds
were used elsewhere, there being
about two Duroc Jerseys for one Po-
land China) the SOW being register
ed. The boy who borrowed" the SOW
was to care for her and the litter of
pigs and to exhibit the best boar pig
and the best sow pig at the Spokane
Interstate fair. After the pigs had
been judged he was to return to
Armour & Company the sow and the
second best pig as interest" on the
investment. He could keep all of the
other pigs for his trouble.
There were 49 pigs raised from the
seven sows borrowed by Moscow
boys, an average of seven pigs to the
sow and gave the second best pig
but the two prize winners, Ardie
Gustafsen and Earl Clyde, bought
the SOW and second best pig for $S5
and keep the entire lot. This gives
A purebred, registered Poland China
pigs and two purebred, registered Po-
land China sows to the Moscow club
for total outlay of $17O.
But in addition to the pigs they
raised the boys got free trip to
Spokane, where they were the guests
of Armour q Company who paid all
expenses of the trip to Spokane, hotel
bills while there and the cost of ship
ping sows and pigs to Spokane and
returning those not sold or returned
to Armour & Co.. to Moscow, The
trip was delightful one and the boys
enjoyed it. They learned
much that will be of value to them
in future years and are better off
and financially than before

All college men and business men

by little groups of hackers will get
into action.
acquainted affair and everybody is
expected to know everybody else
when the fun starts.
"Bill'' Langroise, president of the
student body, will be master of cere-
monies and has set aside a short
time for some snappy Idaho talks
from men prominent on the campus
and in university activities Among
these will be: Thomas Kelley, var
sity coach; Felix Plastino, varsity
football captain, Dean Thompson, and
William Lee, of the Idaho alumni.
A university jazz band has been
gathered together to liven up the
spare moments that would otherwise
tend to make the evening drag. But
little time will be allowed for hand
shaking, the live program being ex-
tensive enough to occupy most of the
evening.
The first get-to-gether on the
campus this year was held Friday
evening when a faculty reception
was held for men and women of the
student body, particularly those who
are here this year for their first time.

FOOT BALL SQUAD
GETTING PRACTICE
COACH KELLEY is GIVING AS
PIRANTS FOR TEAM EVERY
THING IN HIS LINE.

i Wind sprints, charging, team drill
in running signals and a novel war
dance have featured the first days of
football practice at the University of
Idaho under Coach Thomas Kelley,
the former Chicago star who is now
directing Idaho's gridiron destinies.
] Each afternoon session has been
brief but strenuous. Every man on
the field is kept on the move from
the time of his first appearance un-
til the entire squad is waved back
to the gymnasium, Coach Kelley, hav-
ing announced his firm conviction
that 40 minutes Of vigorous activity
equal two hours of sun bathing and
stalling.
The varsity squad has been as
signed to a special training shed re-
served for its use alone. Lockers are
not used,> all equipment beng placed
on hooks which permit the thorough
drying Of sweat soaked jerseys and
muddy socks and pants The definite
makes possible has already had it's
beneficial effect on team aspirants.
For Kelley's war dance two long
lines are formed which permit the
men to extend their arms full length.
The coach barks his command and
each warrior begins a violent jig,
lifting his knees high and plowing up
the sod with his cleated shoes. "Fine
for developing the legs" says Coach
Kelley of this novel training stunt.
Roy Thompson of Boise, a fast and
heavy bacdieldsstar whose arrival had
been expected daily, has written that
he will not return to college Thomp-
son is a veteran who was being count
ed on to round out Kelley's offense
His detection is considered a serious
loss.
Carl Butch" Nagle Of Genesee,
who performed capably at guard
throughout the 1919 season, will not
report until Monday Necessary toll
in the harvest field is said to be the
cause Of his tardiness.
The students are taking a deep in
terest in the foot ball work and Wed
nesday evening more than 40 fresh
men appeared at the gymnasium to
take part in the skirmish. There is
undoubtedly lot of splendid material
among these young men and Coach
Kelley believes that strong second
team for this year will be made and
that many Of the members will make
good men for the varsity" teams of
later years.
Four Brothers In Contest
The four sons of F. M Brashears,
head Of the State constabulary, are
contestants for back field positions
in foot ball at the University. "Brunt"
Brashears, one of the stars of last
years team, is sure of his old position
and his three brothers, who were
stars of the second team last year,
are strong contestants for positions
on the first team this year.

Farmers Frightened Friday.

Strong indications Of rain, with the
barometer going down steadily Fri
day "threw a scare" into the farmers
Of this section, who feared another
rain which would stop harvest work
and undoubtedly result in heavy loss.
Grain cannot stand much rain and
farmers are getting uneasy. Friday
evening a light shower fell and was
followed by sprinkles at intervals,
but not enough rain fell to stop har-
vest work and Saturday morning
threshing machines, binders and com

scare was over.
