A teammate smashed through the gap for a touchdown. !>ut he didn t stop at the goal-line. Ilis momentum carried him an additional 30 feet he stopped somewhere on the other side of the goalposts. Santa Clara had scored against the greatest Nevada grid iron machine ever seen. The tremendous drive of that Bronco hall <■ artier and his teammates during that game provided an t '.i client example of the fierce aggressiveness characteristic of Coach hen Casanova's Santa Clara squads. Casanova, Oregon* new football mentor, had fashioned careful plans for that memorable 1948 meeting with the Wolf pack and who wouldnt:' Nevada had a gigantic line and a powerful I hackficld. Quarterback Stan Heath was one of the nation’s top passers. I he \Volfpack team was so strong that almost all of its starters were individually scouted by professional football organizations during the 1948 campaign. Nevada Powerful J lie heno eleven fielded th<- grcati-t ground-consuming of fense in the country that season. Spearheaded by a deadly aerial .' ■tack, the Nevada gridders were expected to grind the poor Santa C lara Broncos into hamburger. Casanova did not fully appreciate the value of such an occurence. Aided by Hackficld Coach Jack Roche, who accom panied "Ca*" when the latter moved to Oregon last summer. Ire strengthened the Bronco defense while painstaking]v per fecting careful offensive plans. One of the main problems, of course, was Mr. Heath. How tier, “Cas,” apparently operating under the theory that “the best defense is a non-existent enemy offense,” decided that it would be undesirable to have Heath throwing parses through out the game. Since Nevada probably wouldn't cooperate in this matter, the present Duck head man devised."slyw-count plays,” which had the purpose of keeping the ball in Bronco hands as long as possible. As a result, Santa Clara enjoyed pigskin possession for ■15 minutes of playing time, while Nevada held the ball for only 15. I he Broncs found a use for the inflated pig-exterior when it was in their hands. An excellent scouting report had located two weak spots in the Wolfpack line—their right tackle and their left guard. Bronco ball carriers galloped through those two vulnerable positions a total of 50 times during the game. Only about eight separate plays were used by Casanova's gridders during the clash, but they moved down the field for two valuable touchdowns. Helpless Wolfpack When Nevada had the ball, which was not often, their vaunted aerial attack failed to click. That scouting report was .^vorth its weight in uranium that eventful afternoon. Santa Clara captured a 14-0 victory, and Nevada moved in side the Bronco 20 only once during the game. This was the same \\ olfpack team which still holds the all-time major col lege single season record for most yards per game—they averaged 487 while crushing nine of ten regular season oppo nents—losing only to Santa Clara. It was the same Nevada squad which averaged 47.2 points per game while setting three all-time passing records which still exist—most passing yards per gain* (255), most TO passes during a season (27), and most aerials completed per game (15.6).' Although scouts and coaches termed the Bromjo upset “the most perfect coaching job” on the Pacific Coast during a period of several seasons, it was only one of many surprising per formances by Casanova’s Santa Clara teams. COPs Caught Flatfooted His 1947 squad dropped Stanford 13-7 and upset one of College of Pacific’s great teams 21-20. That was the only loss during an 11-game schedule for Quarterback Eddie LeBaron and his COP teammates, who captured two bowl victories and scored 373 points to their opponents’ 111. Santa Clara was forced to overcome a 20-0 halftime deficit to win. The Santa Clara team which upset Nevada also shocked Oklahoma 20-17, dropped Stanford 27-14. and tied Michigan State 21-21. The Oklahoma loss was the Sooners’ onlyr setback in an 11-game campaign and was one of their only two losses in their past 31 games (the other was their Sugar Bowl loss to Kentucky last January). The deadlock with Michigan State also was a shocker, since the Spartans,,averaged 35.9 points per game during the season and lost to Michigan's national champs only 13;7, Webfoot Gridders Practice, Prepare For COP Machine Jayvees Also Scrimmage On Rain-Soaked Fields By Bill Gurney The "Casanova Kids” clearly aren’t resting on their laurels «iftf-r their impressive win over Arizona. Tuesday night they hustled through a hard session on the rain-soaked practice field emphasizing passing and line blocking in preparation for the College of 1 acific I igers at Stockton Saturday. The junior varsity team, which faces the Portland Air Base club Saturdav October 6, at Eugene, also went, ----AT ‘^Urelay, through its paces against a unit consisting of most of the first team defensive lineup. Head Coach Len Casanova and Line Coach Gene Harlow handled1 the instruction in forward wall l play as the practice began, while : Jack Roche and Johnny McKay! coached the backs and ends in! passing, pass defense and protec tion with a three-man defensive line and a four man defensive back field. \arslly Men Annexed Later the unit handled by Roche and McKay annexed some varsity linemen and began offensive prac tice against a team of reserves. Quarterbacks Hal Dunham and George Shaw were hitting well with aerials to sueh targets as Knds Monte Brethauer, Leroy Campbell, and frosh phenom I)lck Davenport from Grant High. Fullback Tom Novikoff looked fit as a Cossack as he ripped off several good gains, as did old re liable;; Don Sloan and Tommy Ed wards. Sophomore Halfback Cecil Hodges also ran well. On the other side of the field i Coach Casanova assembled the athletes who will probably com pose the Junior Varsity club. With sophomore Barney Holland at the quarterback slot, the JVs turned in a very creditable performance against the defensive veteran studded lineup. Van Leuvan Fast Freshman Dean Van Leuvan, running out of a halfback slot, showed speed and shiftiness on one occasion when he slanted off tac kle, broke in the open with good blocking, and reversed his field to go through the entire defending clan. Another yearling ex-fullback Jim Jones Of Grant High, looked right at home In his new end slot as he snagged a short Holland pass over center and broke loose for another score. The Duck machine will be minus at least three gridders, all backs, for Saturday’s tilt with the tough COP Tigers. Offensive halfback and possible starter Tom Lyons is out for three weeks with back and leg injuries incurred against the aptly-named Arizona Wildcats, and sterling defensive back Ray Kar nofski will nurse a dislocated el bow for the same length of time. Speedy sophomore Halfback Ted Anderson is still out with an in jured knee, but hopes to start con ditioning it with running and cal isthenics next week. Shaw Will Be Ready Capable Jerry Shaw, 225 pounds of stalwart tackle, has his injured . knee back in shape and should be ready to go Saturday. Halfback Bog Ashworth who caught a TD pass against Stanford, re-injured his ankle Monday, but will prob Gustin Named To SU Directorate Pat Gustin, sophomore in busi ness, was named to the position of Student Union Board directorate secretary at the SU directorate meeting Tuesday.

In Uvo game** the Ducks have gained 406 yards rushing and 301 yards passing, while rolling up 59 points. Workhorse of the squad has been 210-pound Fullback Tom Novikoff, whose driving, shifty running style has accounted for 157 yards rushing and two touchdowns. The rambling Russian has also booted four extra points. Tommy Edwards is next with 134 yards for a team-leading 7.1 yards per try and with one touch down. Deadly Optional That deadly new optional run or pass play has split up the passing more than in the past, and regular Quarterback Dunham is trailed closely by Novikoff, who can ex ecute the necessary fake to per fection. Dunham has 9 complete in 27 attempts for a .333 mark and 106 yards, while Novikoff leads him in percentage with a sparkling 5 for 7 and is close behind in yards gained with 93. Outstanding pass receiver in the initial two games has been six foot, two-inch, 175-pound Dick Davenport, a freshman displaying remarkable speed and poise in his first collegiate action. Davenport has snagged seven aerials for two touchdowms and 181 yards. Monte Brethauer, junior end and star last year, needs only two passes to top the all-time Oregon reeieving record of 39 set by Dar rell Robinson in 1947-8-9. Bret hauer has raught five- this season for 39 yards gain. The Oregon team spent Mon day and Tuesday evenings at chalktalks, viewing films of the Arizona game.
