Dennehy and Sigler punched the defense for large gains, but were unable to score at the proper time. Dennehy's kicks averaged 38 yards while his opponents were 17 yards behind the 'Miner's efforts. The Orediggers were in for a scrimmage game, but ceased their defense too late to take an offensive game. Captain Murphy, Kirk, Mayo and Larson twinkled on the line while Thompson, Sigler, Dennehy, Powell and Rodlin turned in rewards in encountering chalk lines. The Mines, according to every possible endeavor to dope it out, will finish the season with a winning streak.

Against the Utah Aggies, strong Rocky Mountain Conference contenders, at Logan, October 2, the light Miners in their first start of the season held the heavy Utah team to a 29-0 defeat. Logan fans admired the fighting spirit of the Butte Orediggers, when they held the Farmers foul' times on their own 5-yard line. The first game marked a loss to the team.

The Miners, outweighed 15 pounds to the man, lived up to their standing reputation as the fighting Ore-diggers.
