Spring FOOTBALL
PRACTICE STARTS
COACH THOMAS KELLEY HAS IS
MEN OUT ON THE CAMPUS
FOR GRID WORK

Spring football practice has started
for the Idaho squad, under tutelage
of Coach Tom Kelley, director of Idaho
ATHLETIC department.
The present string of candidates
numbers 35, with several more to re-
port. At least half Of this number
comes from the freshman squad of
last year.
The loss of Neil Irving from the
backfield, Grover Evans from the line
and several others from important
positions is certain to have damaging
reaction on the Idaho team, and from
the new candidates Kelley must dis
cover new talent to patch up the
holes. Toward such goal the Idaho
mentor is directing his scheme of
coach. The general theory of foot
ball, punti1g and passing, fill the
no scrimmage will be held during the
spring practice.
Fall Practice Starts Early
Work will be continued until a
short time before the close of school
and the fall practice period will be
opened shortly before the resumption
of classes. The fact that Idaho's first
game is scheduled for September 80
will necessitate increased efforts dur
ing the spring period and an early
opening in the fall.
Negotiations are under way as to
the opening game, which Coach Ael-
ley wants for the home field, if pos
sible Gonzaga university and Idaho
were originally scheduled for the OPP
ener but Gonzaga wants the game for
Spokane, where the two teams nave
met every season for several years.

Idaho wants third term in the gu
bernatorial office, according to ad-
vices from Boise, says the Spokane

candidate, while many Independent
democrats in Idaho are seeking to
nominate Senator Van Hosen of Ad-
ans county. Senator Van Hosen came
to Idaho three years ago from New

no from 1914 to 1918. Since retiring
from office he has been engaged in

toned among Idaho democrats for
