MONTANA FAlLS TO GAIN
Tribute HI~ 1927 VARSITY performed as a well-coordinated unit, working for team play and faultless precision at all times. Every man was responsible for his part in every play, as is every cog in a smooth running machine; and likewise every man shared in the glory of each victory. Nevertheless, there were men outstanding among them, and it would be ungrateful if no mention were made of them, especially of those who have played their last game for Idaho. T o Captain Charles Diehl go the high honors of the year. Diehl's power and speed on the line, his ability to quickly diagnose plays, and his capable leadership on the field won him recognition up and down the coast, and he was almost universally chosen as all-coast guard. Glenn J acoby, playing his third year at quarterback, was ever steady and dependable, and his brilliant performance as safety will be missed next year. These two veterans were awarded the official " I " football blanket in recognition of their three years of play. Second-year sweaters went to Darwin Burgher, captain-elect; to Con Dewey, Carl Hutchinson, Maurice Brimhall, Sam P errins, and Wilfred Walmsley. J ames O'Brien, Harvey Sumpter, Fred Robertson, Walter Price, Bill Kershisnik, Lester Kirkpatrick, Orville Hult, Gordon Diehl and P aul Hutchinson won their first awards in varsity competition. With the return of these fifteen lettermen next fall, Coach Erb will have a splendid array of football talent for the I 928 Idaho Van dais.
