St. Mary's 3 - Idaho 3 the old dope pail into a thousand bits, the fighting Vandals held the famous St. :\1ary's gridders, conquerors of both tanford and California, to a 3-3 tie at San Francisco, rovember 5th. Matching the powerful t. 1ary's line in speed and aggressiveness, the Vandal forwards smothered every line play before it got started, and smeared the Saints' brilliant passing game. The whole Idaho team shared the glory of that afternoon, coming from behind in the last few minutes to tie the score, and throwing a scare into the Californians that the "native sons" will not soon forget. But to Captain Dieh l, D arwin B urgher and " Ph at" Sumpter go the high est honors of the day. It was Diehl's stalwart defensive work on the line that nipped many a St. Mary's rally in the bud. It was " Burg's" so-, 6o- and 70-yard punts that kept the Saints with their backs to the wall throughout the game. And it was the amiable "Fort" Sumpter, Idaho's underslung guard, who thumped over a place kick from a difficu lt angle on the 25-yard line to save the Erbmen from defeat. " F at" was the coolest man on the field as he kicked that saving field goal to tie the count at 3-3. The Saints had scored their three points in the second quarter, when a "break" gave them the ball on Idaho's nine-yard mark. A long pass had been grounded, but t. Mary's was given the ball here because of alleged interference with the receiver. Unable to smash it across from the nine-yard line in three downs, the Saints place-kicked on fourth down from directly in front of the goal posts on the 20-yard line. Idaho's chance in the closing minutes came as a result of a 70-yard spiral by Burgher. The punt soared over the safety's head and rolled to St. Mary's 21-yard line. The Saints punted back to midfield. Kershisnik
