1969 VANDAL OUTLOOK This year could be the greatest in Idaho history. There are a few if’s in the picture. However, the outlook for the fall is very good. The Vandals will return a veteran team and will have their finest frosh team in history coming up to the varsity. Coach Y. C. McNease feels that this is just the beginning of great things at Idaho. Last year he recruited 35 of the finest football players ever to enroll as freshman, and 15 of these prospects look like possible starters right away. Of course, the injury problem could hamper Vandal chances. The brightest spot is the great All-America end, Jerry Hendren, Idaho’s leading all-time receiver, who will again work with record-setting quarter­ back Steve Olson, who with Hendren set 36 all-time Vandal records. The running attack will be solid, also, with veteran runners Jeff Guillory, Jim Wilund and Ron Davis returning. Flanker Jim Wickboldt will also return with some frosh backup help. Two veteran tight ends return in Mike Dempsey and Dwight Bennett. Nine veteran starters return defensively. Idaho State University

1969 BENGAL OUTLOOK Idaho State figures to gain plenty of yardage in 1969, and if a defense that got experience the hard way last year can contain the opposition, then it might be a good year in Pocatello. With Jerry Dunne throwing to All- America Ed Bell (67 catches for 1086 yards) and Carlis Harris (34 catches and 110 yards rushing), the only question offensively is the running game, and that figures to be vastly improved despite the loss of leading rusher Lewis Cook to the defense. Fullback regular Joe Clark (205) is back, and his blocking figures to clear the way for Dunne and sophs James Jackson and Steve Proniewych to run a lot of yardage. Several offensive line regulars are back. JC transfers hold the defensive key. No fewer than three of the four line slots may be filled by transfers. The Bengals could have unprecedented size and depth in the middle of the line with vet Clayton Vann leading the way. Linebacking may be ISU’s best position. Portland State University

OREGON 13 Southern Oregon 6 Nov. 22—Fresno State 1969 VIKING OUTLOOK Several encouraging factors point to the first winning football season since 1963 for Portland State University, and that was the last year the Vikings played an entirely small college schedule. Head Coach Don Read, beginning his second year, is excited for one thing about PSU’s home ball park, Civic Stadium, which took on a new artificial rug this spring—a Tartan Turf covering costing the city approxim ately $350,000. “Just fantastic,” Read exclaimed. “It’s helped our recruiting 1,000 per cent. The California kids now don’t have to worry about playing in the water and mud. And it’s perfect for our game. We don’t need the wet ball. We like to go with a wide-open offense, throwing a lot. Now we’ll be able to throw more than ever.” What else? “Our attitude, spirit and hustle have improved tremendously over last fall. And we have some talent, more speed, quickness and agility in our line and backfield, plus some size up front that we lacked last fall. We were still hurting for numbers this spring, but they’ll be in this fall,” Read stated confidently. “If things work out, we anticipate 20-25 more JC kids, including 10 tackles.

1969 BOBCAT OUTLOOK Weigh and assay. Juggle and fit. That’s the chore Coach Tom Parac began tackling when spring football practice started at Montana State last April. Splicing a rookie crop, plus about a dozen junior college transfers, in with the remnants of last year’s tri-championship team is the challenge. Parac finds this challenge “interesting.” Parac believes there are some excellent prospects on this year’s frosh team, and he likes the looks of his transfers. “The main thing we’ve got to do is find out what they can do and fit them in where they can take up our losses,” he says. Losses were heavy. Only three offensive starters and five defensive starters return. There are but 14 lettermen among the nearly 60 candidates out for spring drills. “The majority of positions are wide open,” says Parac. “Because we have so few starters back, competition for positions is the keenest it’s been in many seasons.” Parac made some daring changes last year—most of them paid handsome dividends—and most 1969 squadmen are subject to change. In fact, Parac won’t hazard a guess at a starting depth chart. California State Polytechnic College

1969 MUSTANG OUTLOOK Cal Poly’s second season under head coach Joe Harper promises to be another successful one. Harper views the 1969 season with guarded optimism. He expects his team to be stronger than last year’s. With 30 returning letter­ men, 27 of whom played in 1968, 10 top junior college trans­ fers, a handful of top-flight redshirts and several select prospects from the 1968 frosh, the Mustang grid boss can’t help but think his team will be stronger. However, he is also a realist. The 10-game Mustang schedule finds the opposition also improved. Harper’s second edition at Cal Poly will once again feature his exciting Slot-T offense and a rugged, hard-hitting defense. The Cal Poly running attack, which chewed up large amounts of yardage, should be even better this fall. South Dakota State University

1969 JACKRABBIT OUTLOOK A new coach and the absence of two-time Little All- America running back Darwin Gonnerman give the 1969 South Dakota State football team a new look. Dave Krag­ thorpe (former Montana assistant) is now at the reins of the Jackrabbits, replacing Ralph Ginn, who had been head SDSU grid mentor for 22 seasons before retiring after the 1968 slate. Gonnerman, most valuable back in the North Central Conference last year and holder of nearly all Jackrabbit rushing records, has graduated into the pro ranks. The Jacks enter their new season minus some key seniors and practically their entire backfield from the ’68 squad which finished 4-6. Besides Gonnerman, SDSU has had to seek replacements for quarterback Bob Bozied and halfback Jon Naujokas. The only returnee in the back­ field is Tom Settje, a wingback. The Jacks also lost their senior guards from the ’68 squad. About 20 lettermen head the ’69 hopes. Among the standouts are senior tri­ captains Jim Langer, 240-pound linebacker; Tim Roth, 240- pound defensive tackle, and Clyde Hagen, 235-pound end. University of Montana 1968 Final Statistics
