Ducks Bow as Bears Set Victory Record By Sam Fidman A green band of Oregon \\ ebfoots contributed to a new Pacific Coast Conference record Saturday afternoon at Portland, where they were party of the second part to the University of Cailofrnia’s 28-7 triumph. It was California’s 18th consecutive conference win, thus establishing a record that none of the fabu lous coast teams of the past was able to accomplish. _ The ltears were far from being a polished machine, and un loss “Pappy” Waldorf can ripen his crop considerably, the Golden Cal» ifornians that trotted onto the Multnomah Stadium turf Saturday do not comprise the team that will trot into the Rose Bowl come Janu ary. Montana Next 1 Oregon's Jim Aiken is less con cerned with Rose Bowl trotters of this January than he is with the Montana contingent that invades Eugene Saturday. Any light regard ing of the Grizzlies was squelched when they defeated what has been called Dixie Howell’s best Idaho team. The opening* minutes of the ore gon-California clash were little short ot' stunning. The Bears, fav ored in some circles by ns much as five touchdowns, were pus he d j) round the field like so much may onnaise in a salad. The Bears were plastered in their first series of offensive plays, and then Oregon started a sustained drive downfield that made tire 27, 8t9 fans, as well as the Bears, forget about any new reconis. Brelhauer Scores That was really Oregon’s mo ment in the game, even more so than the Webfoots’ first touch down of the current season 1 he Bears already had a three TD bulge ihy the time Monte Brothauer pounced on Tommy Edwards fum ble in the Cal end zone. Even though that opening Duck drive failed to produce a score, it wasn’t until California’s first tally tiiat the fans could sense the air being let out of Oregon’s balloon. The ease with which Cal quarter hack Dick Lee flipped a 22 yard touchdown pass to Hoy Ward after m untimely Webfoot bobble, pretty volt burst the bubble that Oregon f ms had constructed. Two minutes nnd thirty seconds later, seven more points by Cal, again as the result of an Oregon fumble, ended the Ducks’ most glorious moment. Hard-running b acks like Jim Monachino, Pete Schabarum, John Olszewski, and John Pappa provid ed the glitter in the Golden Bear. The play of Bob Anderson, Broth ;u:er, Edwards, and Dick Daugher ty were significant enough to keep alive hopes for continued Oregon improvement. Baugh Injured Washington, !.T> Slingin’ Sam my Baugh, ace paser of the Wash ington Redskins, and Bobby Gage, .speedy Pittsburgh Stelers hall car- I j or, both suffered injuries today io the football game between the two teams, which the Steelers won. Baugh suffered an injury to his! t mowing arm late in the game when he was hit hard by several, ffeelers while trying to pass. The e dent of the injury will not be de-j termined until X-rays are taken. f Initial Test For Frosh Looms Soon By Phil Johnson Coach Bill Bowerman's Univer sity of Oregon Frosh gridders will open their third week of practice this afternoon as they continue pre parations for their season’s opener with the Willamette University Jayvees at Eugene on Saturday, October 14. The Yearlings concentrated up on fundamentals during their ini tial two weeks of practice as Back field Coach Buzz Jackson and Line Coach Dale Daugherty directed their efforts. Few injuries have been suffered by the Frosh, and the only major casualty, All-State Center Dave Lowe, is recovering froin his ankle injury and probably will return to action today. Marshfield's Barney Holland, a Portland Shrine game veteran, and John Spreen of Albany have handled the quarterbacking chores for the Frosh during recent scrim mages, although John Davis from Elkhart, Indiana,. may see some action in that spot this afternoon. The Ducklings appear potent in the halfback positions, with Left Half Joe Maria from Shinston, West Virginia, and Right Half Ho ward Hostetler, another Elkhart, Indiana, boy, performing excellent ly in last week’s scrimmages. Coach Bowerman plans to have his first eleven men play on both offense and defense. If his second team is substituted as a single unit, the mass substitutions will prob ably take place at the end of each quarter. Van Brocklin Stars Norm Van Brocklin, Oregon passing great of two seasons ago, engineered the first two touch downs of the afternoon for the Los Angeles Rams as they downed the San Francisco Forty-Niners yes terday. The former Duck ace re placed Bob Waterfield after the lat ter was slightly injured on the game’s opening kickoff. rot’ STANDINGS LOLA California wso Oregon Stanford Washington Idaho ISO osc W L T Pet 2 0 0 1.004) ia 1 0 0 1.000 0 1 0 .000 0 2 0 .000 0 0 0 .000 on 0 t) 0 .000 0 0 0 .000 0 0 0 .000 0 0 0 .000 IM Schedule TODAY’S IM SCHEDULE 3:50 IM Field—Sig Eps vs. Cherney * Field 1—Pi K Phi vs. Legal Eagles Field 2—Sigma vs. Sigma Nu Field 3—Phils vs. Phi Sigs 4:45 IM Field—Tekes vs. Sherry Ross Field 1—Delts vs. Alpha Field 2—Hunter vs. Phi Kaps Field 3—Minturn vs. Phi l’sis Phillies Capture N.L. Pennant New York, <fP)—Saved from a possible playoff against the Brook lyn Dodgers by Dick Sisler’s dra matic three-run homer in the 10th inning, Manager Eddie Sawyer s Philadelphia Phillies gained the right in the final hour of the race to meet the New York Yankees, kings of the American League, in the World Series opening Wednes day at Philadelphia. Robin Roberts of the Phils and Don Newcombe of the Dodgers had been locked in a tight pitching duel for nearly two and a half hours when Sisler decided the issue with his 13th four-bagger of the year. Roberts set the stage for his own triumph when he opened the 10th with a single. Eddie Waitkus fol lowed with a pop single into cent er, and then Richie Ashburn forc ed Roberts at third. That was the situation when Sisler smashed a Newcombe fast ball into the stands. Huskies Draw New Respect In Gopher Win By Associated Press Despite a painful assortment of lumps and bruises, the University o f Washington’s football team probably feels as if it can lick any body today, and maybe it can. Anyway, the word is out in the Pacific Coast Conference: watch out for the Huskies! Washington, long accustomed to annual drubbings from the Univer sity of Minnesota, pulled one of the week's prize upsets Saturday by knocking off the ponderous Gophers, 28-13. The Huskies thus established themselves as something more than a darkliorse contender for Rose Bowl honors and prevented West Coast prestige, what there is left of it, from being totally sullied in an otherwise disastrous week end. The flood started Friday when another big ten invader, Iowa, un horsed the USC Trojans, 20-14. It got worse Saturday when Kice crushed Santa Clara, 27-7, and when little College of the Pacific lost its first game in 17 starts, a 19-0 decision to Louisiana State. Only the Huskies were left to plug the dike. And they plugged it against a behemoth line which out weighed them 20 pounds to the man. California, evidently holding its fire for bigger games, coasted through Oregon, 28-7. The Golden Bears tie into something more substantial this Saturday, though. They’ll host Pennsylvania, y Other games find Stanford at Oregon State, Southern California at Washington State and Montana at Oregon. Idaho, which succumbed to Montana Saturday in a 28-27 hair-raiser, invades Texas West 1 ern. But the big one is the UCLA Washington battle. The Huskies win over Minnesota may have bol ! stered team morale to a point of invinibility; or it may have finish ed them for the season, a band of | hopeless cripples. Sanders and his Bruins should provide the answer. Important Games Ahead As IMs Enter Second Week Intramural football moves into its second week of play this afternoon with four of last week’s opening round victors out to make it two in a row. Sigma Nil, Tail Ivappa Epsilon, Hunter ha and Minturn hall all will be out for second round wins against op position still seeking' to break into the win column. Sigma Nu, fresh from its 7-6 squeeker over Sigma Clu, is expected to fatten its average at the expense of the Sigma hall crew, which didn t show tor tneu game last week against the Legal Eagles. Tekes Meet Phi Delts Tau Kappa Epsilon, holder of a 14-0 decision over Phi Sigma Kap pa, will unlimber its nig guns again in an effort to halt Sherry Ross, loser in its opener by a 20-0 count to Phi Delta Theta. The Hunter hall team will at tempt to annex a victory from Phi Kappa Sigma to go along with its win over Alpha hall. The Phi Kaps were trounced 40-0 in their opener against Alpha Tau Omega while Hunter was edging Alpha by the thin margin of one first down in its first start. Minturn, Phi Psi Vie The only other undefeated team playing today is Minturn, which scored a convincing 34-0 win over Sigma Alpha .Mu in its opener. Minturn goes against Phi Kappa Psi loser to Kappa Sigma 12-2. Elsewhere in the league, action will be confined to tearps still look ing for win number one as Sigma Phi Epsilon meets Cherney, Pi Kappa Phi engages the Legal Eagles, Philadelphia House meets Phi Sigma Kappa, and Delta Tau Delta vies with Alpha hall.
