DOUGLAS OTTEN RICHARDSON ROMAN HENSLEIGH ATTERBURY HERSTRUM GUSTAFSON NORRIS YOVETICH VAUGHN HERON HOLMQUIST About the 18th ot September of 1937, some forty sun-tanned members ot Montana State's football squad returned to the camp arranged by Coach Croft tor a two-week period of intense training. .These men put forth all they had and made a creditable showing against teams of their own caliber, but were no match for the larger schools. Due to the lack of able substitutes the Cats were considerably handicapped, and when the regulars were forced to leave the game, Coach Croft was Without the proper replacements. With a record ot three victories, one tie, and four losses, the boys proved their ability in all kinds of competition. In all the games lost the Bobcats played their opponents on an even basis for the first halt and then the tiring grind would tell and the scores would begin to Widen. MANAGERS To these men who worked those long and tiring hours, and returned to practice night after night with the same unquenchable fighting spirit, We give our most sincere thanks.

PARIS FELDMAN WILLET UTAH UNIVERSITY ,CAME MONTANA 7: UTAH UNIVERSITY 19 Montana State's Bobcats broke the scoreless jinx with Utah in their first major game of the season. Although they put on one of the best homecoming games in nearly a decade, they lacked the final punch to beat the powerful Utes. The heavier and more ex- perienced line of the Utes punched big holes in the defense of the Bobcats, and let their runners score long gains, which ultimately spelled victory for the mighty Redskins. The Utes first drew blood with a short pass from Cooper to Ballcin after a long march down the field. Their next score came in the second quarter when Schleckman charged in on Cosner who was attempting to pass from his own end zone and recovered Cosner's fumble for the touchdown. ln the third quarter Cosner tossed a long pass to Holloway, and then rnade it first down on the Ute's 22 with a straight line plunge the Bobcat quarterback then threw one into the end zone, which was blocked by Snow of Utah and caught by Roth of Montana. The Utes then pushed across the third and final touchdown in the last quarter to make the score 19 to 7. Outstanding for Utah were Captain Schleckman, Cooper, and McDonough: for the Bobcats, Cosner, Kimberly, and Chessy-Cat Roth.
