The 1958-1959 Vandals The 19 58 Vandal footba ll team, while not the greatest Idaho has had, was capable of playing great football. Many Vandals were injured through the season, with top-night men missing from one to eight games. Bob Eyler, defensive secondary star sustained a broken leg in the Missouri game and had to set out the remainder of the season. Bob Dehlinger fractured his hand against San Jose and with his loss the Vandals lost their top pass receiver. Fullback Ken Hall suffered a knee injury against Arizona and was out except for kicking. Other V:tndals injured through the season were Dale Hill, \Vade P:ttterson, Mike Sheeran and J . D. Lawson. The squad will lose eleven men by graduation, such standouts as tackles, Pete Johnson, Jim Prestel, Bob Prestel and Dick Gooby; ends, W:tde Patterson, ]. D. L:twson and Bud Dowling; center, John Roussos; guard, Dale Hill ; fla nkerback, Bob Dehllnger and fullback, Ken 1-lall. Eight of these were starters either on defense or offense or both and all eleven did outstanding jobs through the season and will be sorely missed by next year's team. The 19 59 Vandals c:tn look forward to :tn outstanding season next year with the return of top rusher, June Hanford; top passer, J oe Espinoza and team offense leader, Gary Farnworth,
:IS
well as top linemen, Stan Fanning, Jim Norton and Steve Symms.
