MONTANA BRUINS
TRIMMED BY IDAHO
KELLEY'S MEN OUT CLASS VISIT
ING YARSITY-"FROSH" BLANK
CHENEY NORMAL, 81 TO 0


Idaho's varsity eleven ran away
from the Montana Bruins Saturday
afternoon on the Fairgrounds field,
80 to T. The ball was in Idaho's
possession for practically the entire
game and only once did the Montana
offensive pass the Idaho 40 yard line.
Overwhelming supremacy was SHOWN
by the men of Coach Kelley's team.
Idaho made 16 first downs while
Montana made but two and actual
yardage from scrimmage netted Ida
no 440 yards to Montana's so. The
lone Montana touchdown came as a
gift, one of the freak plays sometimes
seen on a collegiate gridiron.
In the second quarter Irving on a
pass formation snapped the ball
away only to have the pigskin grab
bed by Tanner of Montana On the
Bruins own 20 yard line Tanner.
who is one of the fastest men on the
Montana team, with good interference
sprinted 80 yards to touchdown and
Plummer kicked goal. This Montana
touchdown tied the score to as
Idaho had counted in the first three
minutes of play in the first quarter.
Blu UQe SCOGG was nOJ lOuS lltd do
the Idaho team came back with a oe-
termined march down the field until
a second Idaho touchdown was made
and the first half ended Ia to for
Idaho
Thereafter everything was Idaho
with the Missoulians only in posses
sion of the ball long enough to punt.
The final quarter was cut down to
II minutes on account Of darkness
or the Silver and Gold team might
have rolled up a larger score.
Neil Irving was the outstanding
star of the game. His Ions run Of 40
yards to a touchdown furnished one
of the games features. When he car
ried the ball he was good for any
where from five to 40 yar Is and he
dashed off any number Of sains for
Is to 90 yards Irving took the ball
across the Montana line three times
and he booted all of the five goals
from placement.
Dale Vohs played a great game at
tackle Time after time he smeared
Montana players before they got un-
der way and no gains were made
through his position. Other linesmen
who showed up well were Jim Neal
at a guard position and Abe Golf at
center. In the backfield Joe Whit
comb was steady ground gamer and
"Babe" Brown with his powerful
drives literally pummelled the Bruin
line into big holes with his gains
through the center of the line
Idaho played straight football The
first score was made in the first three
minutes of play, with Irving going
over, after the Montana territory had
been invaded by straight football
Again in the second quarter de-
termined march down field and Idaho
had scored again with Irving carry
ing the ball In the third quarter
Idaho made two touchdowns. Irving
made the first of the period after he
had smashed through the Montana
line and had twisted clear of their
secondary defense. In scoring Irv-
ing tore off a 40 yard run Whit
comb counted the fourth Silver and
Gold touchdown after the team had
carried the ball to within the Bruins
10 yard zone.
In the fourth quarter straight foot
ball put Idaho on Montana's 40 ward
line after Snow had carried the ball
90 yards. A forward pass, Irving to
Evans, the only completed pass Of
the game, netted 30 more and Snow
carried the ballover on a line plunge.
The game was rough with many
injuries. Coach Bierman of Montana
was forced to use every man he had
taken on the trip. Stark was knocked
on account of displaced
verterbrae Daylis, BTuin end, was
taken out of the game for slugging
and his team was penalized 25 yards
by Referee "Bill'' Mu11igan.
In the preliminary game the Chen
ey Normal school eleven was blanked
while the Idaho yearlings ran up a
score of 81 on straight football An
Injury to Newman, punter and for
ward passer, in the first few minutes
If play forced the university first
year men to resort almost exclusively
o line plunges. The Cheney Normal
cam never threatened seriously the
IDAHO goal line. -
