Oscar, Oscar yon lea re .sadly In the depths of despair! It wasn't over a fortnight ago ."that a delegation of . friendly f tends bluntly intimated to us : that our whole column was a Joke," and now yon come along to advise us It is sorely . lacking in humor. Verily, you put us in a Teritable quandary. Not only as. to the humorless : , ness of our daily diatribe, but also- as to the significance that your accompanying clipping of the likenesses of three dark- visaged, eminent- mayors of i likewise decidedly eminent iuu ' nicipalities of our wide-flung" empire has in" regard to that deficiency. . - 'Son of NuiJ As lot, that crack about Osiris ind us being synonomous to you, Dscar. we don't know whether to feel highly complimented or to put rncle Sam's G-men on your trail In an effort to track you down to your true lair and sue you for gross libel. Osiris." (gen tle readers less exacting than Os car), says Webster, "was the great god of the underworld and judge of the dead. He was the on of Seb and Nut. brother and husband of Isis, father of Horus and Anubis." j Oh, Pshaw, Oscar! "Oslris,n continues Webster's description, Vwas often identi fied with the sun god Ra as the source of life and fruit fulness. He is commonly represented as a mummied figure wearing the crown of Upper, Kgypt and car Tying a whip and crook." Os car, old fella, haven't you inad vertently crossed your wires? Never for an inflnitesmal sec-' ond of time' have we ever at tempted to assume the role of St. Peter by sitting on the bench, passing ont judgment on those who have! passed on. Nor have we been identified, previ ously, with any "underworld." Unless it was the time we made that column': in the Capital Journal that ' is fast being ' crowded off the first page by "news' that happened some where In Instabul two weeks previously. ; j That's the Fella. At for the "mummied fiisure wearing the crown of Upper Egypt and carrying a whip and crook, Oscar, that must be the author of that column which is more and more getting mixed up with the "want ads." Tou know. Oscar, he's the guy who reads our sheet daily to find out what's happening in the world, and then for lack of anything else to do. .."misquotes our choice news stor ies. Like a coupia days back when he failed to discriminate between the worda "dog" and "mother." The story in question read, in ev ery single edition, "the barking of a female dog". . ." The Sipper would have ?you believe, Oscar, that It read "the barking of fe male mother , . ."(The reason, no doubt.

Even Except for two 2nJ Period Thrusts By RUSSELL J. NEWLAND PALO ALTO. Calif., Nov. 20-fcpj-Californla's football jugger naut, rolling to 13 to t victory today over Stanford's Indiana, climaxed the finest season lit nearly a decade by charging to the coast conference champion ship and the right to represent the west, in the Rose Bowl game. New Year's day. Some 85.000 shouting, parti sans sat through a first half downpour as the Golden Bears outfought their oldest rivals for a second successive year and the first conference title since I? 2 8. Except for two slashing touch down thrusts in the second per iod, the undefeated Bears found tie underrated Indians formid able foes, fighting until the gun barked. Yardage Xearl y : Even Statistically, .California was only slightly superior, . When the California power plant started spinning at top speed early in the second per iod, here's how the scoring took place: Left Halt Vic Bottart and Full back Dave Anderson pounded the, tackled on three plays for 13 yards and a first down on the 36-yard line. Anderson added four more straight through the line end Right Half Sam Chap man brok,e away on a thrilling run for 18 yards and another first down, which put the ovals on the 42-yard stripe. Anderson plunged for 12 and 10 yards for two more first downs with the ball resting on the 20-yard marker. Chapman smacked. through for five and Anderson carried it five yards on two tries for a first down on the nine-yard stripe. Chapman slashed off tackle for four. Anderson added one yard, and from the four-yard marker Bottari broke through tor the in itial touchdown. It capped a 17 yard advance. Second Is Easier The Bears put the ball into play on their own 35-yard line after the kickoff and dipped into Stanford territory immed'ately on a 39-yard pass tossed by P t tari and snagged by Chapman. The latter cut back across the field in a brilliant run that brought cheers from the ctowd. Line bucks and a five-yard pen alty against Stanford put the ball three yards from scoring turf. Chapman, raced around right end to score, and added the extra point with a p 1 a c e k i c k. The liears moved 85 yards on this drive.

IJacksoid to Try for Glin Oman's Coast I Title " in ii hi gars Upset Oregon State Shoestring Catch in End Zone by Holmes Makes Final Score 7-0 By PAUL W. HARVEY, Jr. BELL FIELD. Corvallis, Ore.. Nov. 20. -;P)- Carl Llttlefieid's brilliant running and Eddie Bayne's passing arm gave Wash ington State a 7 to 0 victory today over Oregon State in a game play ed on a swampy gridiron before 12,000 homecoming tans. The Bearvers' loss, their Becond con ference defeat, cost them second place standing. , Driving rain fell until the start of the fourth quarter when Little field, Cougar fullback, went 32 yards through tackle, setting the visitors in scoring position on the Beaver 18-yard line. Bayne, 165-pound halfback who also sparkled in the Cougars run ning attack, passed 20 yards to Charles Holmes, sub end standing deep in the end zone, for the touchdown. Halfback Sienkos placekick split the uprights. Holmes seized an almost impos sible chance, snaring the ball from his shoestrings from a host of Beavers who were almost on top of him. The fine kicking of Bill Duncan, Beaver quarterback, gave Lis mates advantage t h a t, possibly held the score down. The only other scoring threat came in the third period when the Cougars marched from their own 4 2 to the Beaver nine, the ad vance featuring a 43-yard run off tackle by Littlefleld. After being stopped for three downs, Sienko attempted a field goal but his kick was wide. Even on Victories The Cougar win tied up the 35- year-old rivalry between the two schools at 13 victories each. Coach Lon Stiner sent injured Joe Gray, brilliant Beaver half back, into the game at the end of the third quarter, but Washington State smothered his threatened aerial attack. Gray's leg was hurt two weeks ago. and he could do but little running. The Cougars made 14 first downs to one for the Beavera, that coming late in the game when Gray passed 20 yards to Holcomb, substitute halfback. Washington State made 240 yards from scrimmage to 36 tor the Beavers, and 24 yards from passes to the Beavers' 27. Lineups : WSC Klumb. . . . Grimstead. Campbell. . Devine. . . . Hoptowit. .

Washington's flashy halfback, broke the spirit ot the -Oregonians on the first scrimmage play of the game when he Iskedaddled 67 yards, and then wound up as the hero of the bat tle' by scoring both Washington touchdowns. He crossed the Oregon goal line on the fourth play in the first minute of tbe contest, and added the other with ai two-yard plunge in the last period. Bud Ericksen. brilliant Husky center,, added the other two points when he blocked Ted -Gebhardt's punt behind the Oregon goal line on the fourth play of the second period. The ball fell into the end sone and rolled out ot bounds. Jay Graybeal, Oregon's sensa tional sophomore halfback, was the only man to get in the Hus kies' hair.

The way they tore up the sod den turf between the 20-yard lines the Rams might have scored six touchdowns instead of the lone marker that rewarded a 58 yard drive in the third period.

With out letting go of the leather he fought his way from his own 37 to St. Mary's 12. On the, next play he slipped the ball to Krywicki, who tossed it out to Joe Woitkoski, running in the clear. It was an easy counter. The attempted placement was fumbled.
