Show I Utah Eleven On Edge For Montana Game Today Coaches Predict a Hard Game But Varsity Should Win by Wide Margin. I -.--.Hi: L'litli team .spent llie last aftcr-i aftcr-i noon ' before the game with Mon- tana today in a shorl practice Jl consisting entirely of aignr.l work and passing the hall The field was In superb condition and ,unlces It rains today will bo faster 'ihnn at any ' timo this season. The workout, though f abort, was spirited and the men worked as though the championship depended on the outcome of today's game. V new" feature of the practice was a change In the uniforms. The red and white of tho university nre also the colon? col-on? of the Montana team. In order to prevent pre-vent confusion. Coach Bcnnion gave hi? men sleeveless white Jersles which they slip right on over the usual red ones. After tho workout the players had an early dinner at tho training tahle sud : a long tulk afterward. From the con-versa con-versa lion around the table one would ; gather that the boys expect to win easily. , This spirit has cost many a defeat. When the Denver team met the Colorado Aggies early In the season, they Hewed the Karnc would be a joke and Went. In over-r over-r confdont. The result was that before Denver came to earth, the farmers had scored It points which proved lo ho suf-., suf-., 'lelent to win. Utah once wont to Logan to Jiavo a practice gumo with the Utah -Susies and came home with the short , efld of a 17 to 0 score. This should ho .Person enough. At all events there Ik no reason why tnfs should not be the best same played In Salt Lake so far this year. The early reason form and the poor condition of the fHd robbed the Wyoming game, of most of Us interest while the lop-sided-hess of the Denver game made it lo a huge extent uninteresting. Coacli Cunningham of Montana is not' hopeful of victory. Tie reallr.es the strength of the Utah eleven but declares his charges are not dismayed at"the prospects pros-pects and promises the victorious Utah team the hardest game of the season. Coach Bennlon Is guarding against over-confidence on the part of his players. play-ers. He says: I fear that the excellent work of our team so far this season has caused the football fans to underestimate underes-timate the strength of the Montana team- when compared to our own. I expect a rattling good game today for two reasons. In tho first place after seeing Montana work out on the Fort Donplas grounds last night I know that they have a strong team. The tnon are bigger than ours and arc by no means slow. Captain Dorn-hlasor Dorn-hlasor is a marvelous player and a wonderful kicker. His punts last night were good for about sixty yards each and tho ends were down under thum like lightning. Then again the fuel, that we are .going lo try an entirely new style of offense today makes tho outcome doubtful. However, the boys arc in good trim and a defeat would be the surprise of the season. Coach Bcnnion during the three nights of secret practice this week has formu- lated an attack which ho claims to be entirely different from anything that has ever been seen here. This fact should make the game interesting if for no other reason than that upon this new style the fate of Utah will depend In the big battle bat-tle with Boulder in Colorado next Saturday.
