Idaho Played Strategy
Idaho let the Cougars pound away
and tucker themselves out during two
quarters, but when Idaho's goal fine
was seriously endangered the Vandal
line was adamant.
With her final period rally Idaho
proved herself the master of the sit
uation, for the team that can stand
the battering through the larger part
of the game and come back toward
the end with such a versatile attack as
Idaho turned loose on the Cougars de
eerves to win.
Idaho displayed remarkably well
balanced tactics. The line did com
mendable work both defensively and
offensively and the backfield co-or
dinated with it in fine style,
work of Bob Fitzke and Wayne Davis,
halfbacks, was particularly outstand
ing, while the blocking of Frank Kin
nison, fullback, and the generalship
of Skippy Stivers, quarter, was
something which the close followers
of the contestdidn't pass up. Stivers
ran his club like a seasoned veteran
and backfield sparkled and establish
ed a new record—it played through
one of the most embittered struggles
In years without a fumble.
Line Strong
The
In the line. Dusty Kline, center,
and Larry Quinn and Charles Hausen,
tackles, were unquestionably the lum
inaries, although their superiority
over the other men was not as not
iceabie. Quinn was perhaps more
aggressive, although Kline's
was a remarkable combination
of
headwork and what the football fans
call "grit." Neal Nelson and Johnny
Vesser played consistently at ends,
while the work of Lyle Tapper and
Ted Bucklin at guard, combined with
the plunging of Kline, stopped many
Cougar plays that were hurled at the
center of the line.
