SPECIAL TRAIN IS
ASSURED FOR We'd.

Idaho undergraduates and Moscow
townspeople are making plans to at
tend the University of Idaho vs. Uni
versity of Washington northern divi-
sion championship basketball game in
Spokane, Wednesday night, and have
been successful in securing fare and
a third rates over the Inland Empire
railroad to Spokane and return, pro-
viding one hundred or more will make
the trip. A special train has been
promised for the occasion if the de-
mand is sufficient to warrant such an
accommodation, railway officials have
stated.
Word was first received here con-
cerning the exact date of the cham
pionship game Sunday afternoon, with
the announcement that the Gonzaga
University gymnasium had been de-
finitely secured for the contest. Ar
rangements were undertaken at once
by President Hersey of the university
student body to secure special train,
with the result that one will leave
Wednesday afternoon between $3.50
and 4 o'clock, and will return to Mos
COW the same night directly after the
game Providing there are over 100
wiz WILL iHohC ChO u IL, ioi cild a
third rates will be offered, which will
put the cost of the round trip down
to four dollars.
Making Final Arrangements.
Graduate Manager Albert Knudson
has been in Spokane since Sunday
morning completing arrangements for
staging the big game, which will un-
doubtedly attract an immense crowd
of Spokane basketball fans. He has
been successful in reserving until
Wednesday afternoon one side of the
Gonzaga gymnasium for Idaho fans,
and arrangements have been made
whereby those signifying their inten-
tions of taking in the game can re-
serve seats at the university, and au-
thorities will communicate Wednes-
day morning with manager Knudson
in Spokane, who will there reserve
the number Of seats spoken for here.
Reserved seats on the lower floor will
cost $1.50, and general admission 81,
it was announced.
Considerable interest is being taken
in the proposition in Moscow. and
many townspeople as we'll as students
and professors will likely take adj
vantage of seeing the Idaho Vandals
play the game which will decide
whether or not they have the right
to battle the University of California
Bears for the Pacific coast title.

WASHINGTON TIES
Thru oregon WIN
VANDALS MUST DEFEAT HUSKIES
BEFORE MEETING CALIFORNIANS
IN CONFERENCE TITLE CLASH.

The University of Washington Hus-
kies, Saturday night, tied the Idaho
Vandals for first honors in the north
ern division of the Pacific Coast con-
ference basketball pennant race by
defeating the Oregon Lemon yellow
quintet 81 to 20, in comparatively
last game.
This definitely tied the two teams
for first place in the northern divi-
sion, and will necessitate playing a
game during the coming week in Spo-
kane, at the Gonzaga gymnasium, for
the honor of meeting the southern
division winners for the Pacific Coast
championship. Negotiations were be-
gun before Saturdays game seeking
to arrive at suitable method of de-
siding the northern title contenders,
with the result that Spokane was
picked as the scene of battle. We'd
nesday has been the day chosen for
the big contest, which is attracting
considerable attention throughout the
entire west.
In the south, the University of Cali
fornia has definitely annexed the di-
vlslonal title, winning the right to
meet the northern team in a three
game series for the big flag The
Golden Bears won three out of four
of their games with the Stanford Car
dinals, who although tied with the
Californians on a percentage basis,
conceded the title rights on the basis
of the comparative strength
Should Idaho win from the Univer-
sity of Washington, Wednesday, the
three games with California would all
be played in Moscow through the
stated specification that the champion
ship should be decided in a three
game series played on the floor of the
northern team.
Although no definite date has been
set for the championship series, they
viii undoubtedly be played off during
the coming week, either here or in
Seattle. This will give Moscow the
three premier basketball games of the
season, and prove to be a big drawing
card for followers of the sport. Local
supporters see no great danger in the
clash in Spokane, We'd
nesday, and confidentially expect the
Gem Staters to win by nice margin
from their Seattle opponents.

idaho Wins over
COUGARS SATURDAY
TAKE GAME ALMOST DUPLICATE
OF PREVIOUS NIGHTS CONTEST
BY 1925 SCORE.

The University of Idaho basketball
team won its fourth consecutive vic
tory for last week Saturday night in
the local gymnasium when they de-
feated the Washington State college
quintet 80 to 26, in a comparatively
slow game, featured by the close
guarding Of the players on both sides.
The game was an almost duplicate
of the previous nights contest held
in Pullman, when Idaho gained sub
stantial lead in the first period, only
to drop it before the terrific onslaught
of the Cougars in the second half. In
Saturdays game, the Gem Stater's
took the initial lead during the first
few moments of play, maintaining it
until the end of the half, when the
score stood 20 to 12 for the locals
Washington State college used a
large number of substitutions during
the game in an endeavor to turn the
tide of affairs In all they used
seven substitutions, which were of
considerable consequence in that they
succeeded in tieing the Idahoans dur
ing the middle of the second half, and
came very near slipping over de-
feat on the local boys. With the score
26 to 26, Idaho called time out, talked
the situation over, and went back in
the game with renewed energy suffici-
ent to drop in a couple of field goals,
giving Idaho the game, 80 to 26.
This was the third victory of Idaho
over the Cougars this year, W.S.C.
having won the first clash early in
the season 20 to IL. Saturdays game
was featured by the close guarding
Of both teams, and the difficulty with
which field goals were made. Fox
for Idaho was high point man with
18 points, 5 field baskets, and con-
He played spectacular
game throughout, but was watched
closely by Cougar guards. Friel,
State forward, was easily
their stellar performer, and the most
dangerous man on the team. He
slipped away for several neat field
goals, and passed the ball with tell
ing accuracy. Kelso, recent basket
ball find of Coach DOC" Boiler
proved to be player of unusual abiI-
ity, and should develop into a danger
Gus man with little experience and
good coaching.
Idaho used several second string
men throughout the game, giving
Thompson and Edwards, regular cen
ter and forward, rest preparatory
to the game with the Washington
Huskies in Seattle, Wednesday.
