By Gordon Rice
Emsruld Sport* Editor
The Oregon I tuck m acored a
workmanlike 20-7 win over an
over-rated Han Jom State foot
ball team Saturday on Hayward
field, and in no doing evened up
their Hoaaon’s record at three
Winn and three Iok.soh.
For the moat part It was nn
unspectacular, though convinc
ing victory, with Oregon never
in any mmIouh trouble.

game. It was a fumble which |
gave the Ducks their first score;
early in the game and set the!
visiting Spartans back on their1
heels for the rest of the game.
San Jose, which has been af
fected by fumbelitis even more
than Oregon this year, fumbled
eight times and lost four of ’
them. Oregon lost the ball the
only time it fumbled.
Oregon Win* Flip
Oregon's opening score came
with only 2:28 gone in the ball
game. Duck Captain Ron Pheis
ter won the flip of the coin for
the sixth time in a row thin
season and elected to defend the
north goal, With the wind at his

For the 10,000 family day fans
In the stands, the fumble was a
welcome change from the open
ing day fumbles which have
plagued their own Webfoots all
season.
The Ducks waited no time
taking advantage of the break.
Tom Crabtree, subbing for the
injured Dick James, ripped off
two yards. Jasper McGee made
two more.
Webfoots Score
On the next play. Quarterback
George Shaw made a beautiful
fake to McGee going into the
line, then handed off to Halfback
Walt Gaffney going around left
end. Gaffney outran the Spar
tan defenders to the sideline and
then cut downfield for the touch
down.
Shaw added the extra point,
and Oregon led 7-0.
The San Jose team seemed
never to recover from the
shock of this first quick TD.
Oregon drove to the San Jose
19 the next time It got the
ball, but couldn’t score, in
sptto of Shaw’s 15-yard run
on fourth down.
Another Oregon drive died on
the Spartan two midway in the
second period, after a drive from
the Oregon <6. Crabtree, Lloyd
Powell and Larry Rose carried
the ball to the San Jose four in
ten plays.
Drive Stopped
With a fourth down coming
up, Coach Len Casanova sent in
McGee to punch the ball across.
The move was obvious, how
ever, and the Spartan defense
was waiting for him and stopped
him short of the goal.
The Ducks had still another
chance a minute later when
San Jose Fullback Dave Fan
ner fumbled on his own 17 and
Phil McHugh recovered for
Oregon, tuft they muffed this
one too.
