Deming's Work Provides
Scoring Chances for
Orange 13-0 Win
Qther Tlirusts Fail and
W. U. Threatens With
Neat Pass Attack
J- By PAUL, HAUSER
BELL FIELD, Corvallis, Oct. 3.
-( Special )-Oregon State's Beaver
football, team could thank Mr.
Kenneth Oscar Deming, hefty cen
ter and captain of the Beavers." for
a 13 to victory they gained over
a charging driving bunch of Bear
cats from Willamette university
here today in the hardest fought
battle the two yearly rivals have
nloire airy r a tho Tlett reafs last WOT1
in 1906.
nomine-, the tower of strength
in the Beaver front yard, blocked
two kicks from the toe of Dick
Weisgerber deep in Willamett s
territory and there was the ball
game.
Just those two blocked kicks,
one in the first and one in the
last, quarter, stopped the Bear
cats from playing their ancient
foes of the agricultural college to
a scoreless tie, for all othfY Beav
er scoring attempts were stopped
by a hard-charging Willamette
line.' .'" !
Outcome Duplicates
1034 Fluke Loss
It was almost a repetition of
the 1934 game when the Bear
cats lost another time 13 to 0
with a blocked kick and a fumble
paving the way to Oregon State's
two touchdowns.
Elmer Kolberg's 50 yard punt i
to the Willamette 23 stripe mid
way in the first quarter put Wil
lamette in the hole for the first
time and it was then that Weis-
nrhsr arYin had earlier attempted
a place kick from the Oregon State
35, tried a quick kick that failed.
The massive Deming stuck his
chest In the way and the ball car
omed off it to be scooped up by,
galloping Joe Gray who tore to the
Willamette 19 before Wreisgerber
dragged him down.

Mopped him for a yard loss. Gray
faked a pass and ran down the
sidelines, slithered off as Jimmy
Hogg attempted to tackle him but
stepped out of bound3 on the Wil
lamette five-yard line. Eilers fum
bled on the next play but it was
an Oregon State man that gripped
the ball when the pile was untan
gled and Gray, on fourth down,
went, over right tackle for the
score. Swanson's place kick hit
a goalpost and bounded back into
the field.
Four Minute Left
After Second Score
There were four minutes left
In the ball game when the second
blocked kick and the second
touchdown came." Deming again
was in the way when Weisgerber
attempted a punt from the Wil
lamette 31 and the ball bounded
away to the Willamette nine yard
line where Lillebo. Beaver end,
grabbed it. He was tackled hard
by Charley Versteeg but Joe Gray
in two plays packed it across and
this time Swanson's kick was
good.
Willamette was in danger of be
ing scored upon again shortly aft
er the first score in the opening
period when Weisgerber got off a
pitiful boot that went out of
bounds on the Willamette 14 but
the Bearcats held on the four-yard
line.
The Bearcat's big scoring
chance came In the fourth quar
ter when Bill McAdam recovered
Grey's 'fumble on the Oregon

Restoration of Flow of
Commerce Now Held

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.- -A
boost In Franco-American trade
was forecast by state depart
ment officials today, as a result
of the French government's re
duction of customs duties on im
ports. Even : more important to ad
ministration economists, however,
was their interpretation' of the
French move as the first step to
ward abandoment of France's
longtime foreign trade restrictive
policies..
' One spokesman said France
how appears to have aligned her
self with the United States and
Great Britain behind, the princi
ple that a restoration of the flow
of foreign commerce depends on
the removal of barriers erected
by some nations in the form of
excessive tariffs, exchange re
strictions and quota controls.

The tariff cut was regarded In
official quarters as a natural re
