Tommy Little was the man of
the hour Saturday afternoon when
Oregon State’s Beavers fought
their way to a 7-0 win over the
University of Oregon at Hayward
field before 18,500 Homecoming
fans.
The 185-pound fullback inter
cepted a Barney Holland aerial
late in the first frame and went 23
yards to stake the Aggies to a 6-0
Score. Jim Withrow’s perfect
place kick wrapped up the scoring.
Although the Ducks had one of
their worst days of the season,
you can’t take it away from the
Beavers. They had the best spirit
and most determination that Ore
gon has run into this year.
Williamson Lucks Out
When Paul Williamson football
authority, and Kip Taylor, OSC
coach, both came out with pre
dictions last week that the Ag
gies would win, a lot of people
took it with a grain of salt.
But when the final gun had
seunded Saturday, no one had
any doubt in their minds that
OSC had outplayed the Docks.
The Aggie line had a definite
edge over Oregon’s star-stud
ded forward wall. And the vis
iting backfield had decisively
outrun the Green and Yellow
ball .carriers.
Only in passing offense, did Ore
gon show a real advantage.
Dick J^nes, the third best
ground gainer in the conference,
didn’t even suit down for the
game, and his absence was pro
bably the reason Oregon didn’t
have a dependable ground attack.
But on the other hand, Jim
Withrow, the Aggies’ top notch
quarterback, was also out of the
game for quite a spell, the whole
third quarter to be exact. And the
Beavers were as impotent without
him as the Webfoots were with
out James. Yet Oregon State
fought off a determined Duck
drive in the third frame, the best
attempt Oregon made all day for a
score.
The Oregon State victory gave
the Beavers a deadlock with
Washington State for the mythical
Northern Division championship,
each with three victories and one
loss against neighboring squads.

The Webfoots, strangely enough,
were the only team to defeat a
California school. Oregon upset
USC, 13-7 and also tied Cal, 0-0.
Washington’s Huskies tied USC,
but lost to the other southern grid
powers.
Despite the loss to the Aggies,
Oregon set two new conference
pass defense records. Only one of
the four Beaver passes was com
pleted; and it was good for only 7
yards.
This left the Duck defenders
with only 41 completions against
them all year; barely four suc
cessful aerials per game. The
old mark, 53, was set by Mon
tana back in 1949.
In total yardage via passes per
season, the Webfoots allowed but
578 yards, 57.8 per game. USC
held the previous mark, 668, set
last year.
Other than Little’s interception,
there were few exciting moments
for either team to cheer about.
Oregon State got off a good drive
in the early parts of the game, but
the Ducks defense held.
And The Wind Blew
A stiff wind blew during the
first half, severely hampering the
punting and passing of each team.
A four year OSC winning streak
over the Ducks went into its fifth
year on account of the Aggie tri
umph. Another streak was wiped
off the books, however.

Students Riot
Oregon fans made up for any
lack of fight the team may have
shown in bloody post game activi
ties Saturday.
After the game, as the seniors
were being introduced, several
hundred Oregon rooters formed a
semi-circle around the OSC root
ing section with intentions of
“guarding the goalposts,” al
though cries of “get your beaver
hat,” and "kill” were distinctly
heard in the background.
When introductions were over,
one luckless Beaver stepped out
of the stands and just happened
to touch the goalposts. That was
all the excuse the Oregon fans
needed. The white shirted Aggie
went down under a pile of green
and gold hats.
When other Beavers attempted
to save their hapless companion
they too were swarmed under.
With hardly a “Halloween hat”
left in sight, several Oregon stu
dents innovated the trick of grab
bing handfuls of mud and tossing
it into the packed stands.
The turf around the stands soon
disappeared and vandals ranged
far and wide gathering mud. Ev
eryone was fair game for the mud
slingers.
The crowd thinned and it looked
for a moment as if festivities had
ended. However, OSC football
managers hadn’t managed to get
the football helmets and warmup
jackets off the field. A large
crowd soon gathered, with but
a solitary policeman “protecting”
the loot.
And loot it soon was. One brave
fellow made off with a jacket, and
when the policeman gave chase,
other articles didsappeared.

Upsets, Bowl Bids Mark Weekend
Saturday marked the virtual
end of the 'upsetlngest* season in
several years. Many New Year’s
day bowl bids were cinched and
many more thrown into complete
confusion as a result of the day's
action.
On the coast, UCLA had Cali
fornia to thank for their first bowl
trip in seven years. Cal gained
their second tie in as many weeks
to edge Stanford out of bowl com
petition, while the Bruins downed
USC 13 to 0. Now, only the for
mality of a vote remains to send
UCLA to Pasadena.
In the Midwest, Illinois remain
ed in the running for the big ten
Rose Bowl bid by trimming North
western 39 to 14 while Michigan
State eked out a 21 to 15 victory
over a weak Marquette team.
Michigan State is considered the
top bet for the bid, because Ill
inois made the trip year before
last.
Oklahoma clinched a bid to the
Orange Bowl by smothering Ne
braska 30 to 12. Maryland is the
logical choice for the other Orange
Bowl spot, after smearing a strong
Alabama team 21 to 0.
The position of Cotton Bowl
host is still wide open. Texas and
Rice lead the pack, although Rice
beat the Longhorns earlier in the
! year. Baylor is still in the running
j after knocking off SMU last week.
As for the other half of the Jj
Cotton Bowl and both contestants
In the Sugar Bowl, the Southeast
conference has top priority. The '*
three open spots will probably be
filled by Georgia Tech, Auburn,
and either Mississippi or Alabama.
