idaho HOPES TO WIN
FROM ". S. c. ELEVEN
FRIDAY AFTERNOONS GAME AT
PULLMAN ALL IMPORTANT
QUESTION IN MOSCOW
Scores of Recent Years

TWO college eleVenS, whose gridirOn
rivalry can be traced by see-sawing
scores for more than quarter CEN
tury, will meet again at Pullman FRI
| day afternoon. Since 1913 Idaho has
been unable to humble Cougar elev-
en-, although the Idaho S. A. T. c.
team of 1918 defeated w. S. c. to 6.
This game, however, is not considered
in the running as the team was not
a college team representing Idaho.
Years ago it was quite common for
Idaho to wallop w. S. c. on the foot
ball field but when the brilliant Lone
Star" Dietz, who knew football as it
should be played, stepped to the helm,
the Cougar eleven started a winning
pace, which they have managed to
keep. With the exception of the S. A.
T. G. team vicory in 1918 Idaho was
unable to cross the w. S. G. goal line
until last season, when Coach Kelley
came to Idaho's rescue and in one sea-
son developed an eleven which held
the Cougars IA to z.
Coach Klley fully realizes that his
men must subdue heavy and fast
team in order to turn the tide Of
eight losing seasons. w. s. G. gave
the Gonzaga Bulldogs sound drub-
bling in Spokane last week while Ida
no was battling the University OF
Oregon to a TT tie in Portland. Both
teams are in good mid-season form
and, although Idaho's chances are
not as good as they might be, the
Silver and Gold supporters are en-
no gloomy predictions.
On the eve before the big game will
be held the premier pep rally" of the
season. Throughout the entire week
he freshmen are collecting and
guarding rubbish for the annual
bonfire which is touched off during
he rally. High in the center of the
pile is placed a replaca of the w. S.
}. cougar" and the extent to which
his effigy is consumed, according to
radition, foretells the Silver and
Hold success on the following day.

MANY PROBLEMS
UNDER INVESTIGATION
RESEARCH ACTIVITIES OF UNI
VERSITY SCIENCE STAFF
ARE INCREASING.

! That the research actitities of the
University of Idaho science staff are
keeping pace with those of the larger
universities is evident from a recent
report by DR.. J. e. Wodsedalek, chair
man of the university committee of
graduate instruction and research.
The report, in part, says:
''The present science staff of the
university faculty published, besides
numerous minor articles, 230 valuable
major papers based on original in
vestigations. These publications were
contributed by 38 men, making an
average of about six publications per
man. Almost 100 of these papers
were published by our present science
men after coming to Idaho. This
shows that in spite of rather heavy
teaching schedules-for teaching is
the primary function of the Univer-
Sity-Our men continue their research
activities after coming to Idaho.
"An interesting fact brought out in
survey Of the research situation at
the university is that, with a few ex-
ceptions, the men who carry the
heaviest teaching loads are also the
most active Investigators and the
greatest producers Of first-class re-
search"
In an interview DR.. Wodsedalek
said that it is generally known in edu-
cational circles that the individual
who possesses the real scientific re-
search "bug" usually produces valu-
able results in spite Of all sorts of
odds.
"The science men of the univer- /
sity," he said, shave at least 100 |
problems under investigation, many /
Of which are nearing completion.
Most Of this investigational work is
with vital economic prob
Lems within the state of Idaho. Many
