GEMMF.LL
Whew! Never have I seen a
football club run one groove"
as concertedly as did those Port-
. land Pilots I n
J ramming to tho
j final-q u a r t e r
i touchdown that
beat our Bear
feats! For a
i while In that
78-yard march
1 that took but
three minutes to
run 12 plays It
was laugnabie;
after about the
fifth straight
ram of four and
five yards ever
the same spot it
was . becoming
si
ROM gemmeix. unbelievable;
and when the Pilots wound up
across the Bearcat goal line on
the 11th of those left tackle
crunches, interspersed by a pass,
it was tragic. I still j can hardly
believe that is what happened,
but it's right here in my game
notes every blessed - play, i
Bad Passes Costly.
What ; really Kt the Bear
rat daubers down , was no less
than four bad passes from
Francis Schinidt, substitute
center, that cost the 'Cats 20
yards. Schmidt, the hero of the
Linfield game in which he
played an end position to snag
two touchdown passes, was
used by Coach Keene against
the Pilots to replace Bruce
Williams in the pivot slot, a
position he played last year.
This reason, however,, Schmidt
has hardly been over a ball
and his inability to spiral it
back to his backfield mates
made him look " more of the
goat than he should be ad
judged by spectators who knew
not the circumstances. Wil
liams, who played a whale of
a game for himself in the ab
sence of big Lieighton Blake,
regular . pivoter who was
j benched in street clothes be
cause of a bad knee injury,
had to have some rest. Schmidt
was called into give him that.
'Cats Held Advantage.
'. Up until the time the Pilots
swung into that fast tempo
touchdown parade in the final
quarter, the advantage had been
with the Bearcats. Not only in
the score, which was 7-6 for
Willamette, but in all the vital
statistics. Willamette had nine
first downs at that point and
Portland but six. But the story
of the game was in that final
quarter parade, which wasn't a
parade at all but a dogged in-
sistence that the left side of the
Bearcat Jine was its weakest link,
which the Pilots proved con
clusively. The Willamette secon
dary was afraid to come up to
help plug up that tackle posi
tion that was being ripped to
shreds with each thrust, simply
because it was afraid of those
devastating, down-the-m i d d 1 e
passes of this boy Frank Ma
loney, who by-the-way is a
coach's dream.
15 Seconds per!
When . the secondary did'
move up to attempt to stop
the tornado that was bowling
at its forward wall, presto!
Maloney tossed Murray, the
end who caught his second
period pass for a touchdown,
lor a fat lO-yard" gain to place
the Pilots on the Bearcat four
yard line. From which place
it was but a matter of. three
more left tackle smashes and
the Pilots had six more points
and victory. When I remind
you it took but three minutes
for the Clitfdwellers to bang
tho)re TS yards, actual playing
time, I mean that each one of
those 12 plays took but an av
erage of 15 seconds each. From
that you can get an idea of
what this "fast tempo" tim
ing of Mathews dual-control
is like. It's fast!
Bennett, Shaffer Shine.
Little Bunny Bennett, who set
off the spark that gave Willam
ette its only touchdown and
about the only really intense
spark displayed by the local col
legians as a whole, played beau
tiful ball. The stocky little mite
' gave the crowd no few "gas
pacious" moments as he took
the opening second-half kickoff
on a 54-yard jaunt that" landed
him on the Pilot 41 and on
which he nearly got clear away.
Big Neil Shaffer, whose pappy
was custodian of the Bearcat
water wagon for the game, also
turned in a football game for
himself. Shaffer showed more
power on his plunges than he
has ever revealed hitherto in
: his collegiate grid career.
Beautiful Booting
Beautiful qnick boots were
ordinary in that game. .. Wil
lamette quick-kicked seven
times for an average per kick
of 45 yards with Bennett's 56
yard thump the longest. The
Pilots got off five fast ones,
with Maloney's 58-yard boot
the furthest. This boy Ma
loney, he's the . Pilot football
team with no little help from
Enzler and a pair of excellent
wisgmen in CHagen - and Mur
ray. Maloney gained 57 yards
in 15 carries for a 3.8 per
carry average; panted six
times for an average of 45
yards per kick, including his
four quick kicks of 36, 56,
and 58 yards each; tossed one
touchdown pass; and flipped
one pass that was a big factor
in the other touchdown drive.
He's quite a boy.
Vjiking Stock Soars,
- While the Bearcats are griev
ing a loss that never should
have been, the Vikings of Salem
high are rejoicing In new-found
scoring ability since jtheir un
precedented 32-0 route of the
Tillamook Cheesemakers. This
gent Harold Itauk seems to have
a faculty for bringing forth great
improvement in his prep clubs
from week to week. If his kids
keep up the pace, who knows
but what- they'll emulate .the

of the state title? They meet am

By JOSEPH P1GNEY I
HAYWARD FIELD. Eugene,
Oct. 1-(P) -Oregon left the shaded
meadows of the dark horses to
day and lined up with the true
contenders for the Pacific Coast
conference football championship.
The Weofoots, exercising auda
cious disregard for the pickers,
left a 14 to 12 scar from a touch-

With an attack as gaudy as the
shimmermg, blindness of Dublin
green, yellow and gold uniforms,
Oregon put 'down the favored Cal
ifornians with third and fourth
quarter touchdowns. The victory
was the second on successive Sat
urdays, and placed the Webfoots
at the top ot the conference.
Oregon capitalized on one break
and overcame another to come
from behind the Bruins 12 to 7
and score half way through the
last quarter.
The real winning touchdown
spurt started when Ted Gebhardt,
halfback, twisted to the 18 yard
line and UCLA was penalized 15
for roughing him.
Jay Grybeal, Oregon's jack
rabbit quarterback, got a yard at
left end but the Webfoots lost

Bottari Sparks Bears to
Three Touchdowns in
First Half
PULLMAN, Wash., Oct.
Californla's Golden Bear varsity,
packing the power that carried It
to the Pacific Coast conference
championship last year, rolled
over Washington State for a 17
point' first half lead today and
then watched the second and third
strings carry on to a 27 to 3
victory.
Halfback Vic Bottari, picked by
sports writers to be the coast's
"back of the year," lived up to
predictions as he sparked the
Bears to their three first-half
touchdowns after WSC had set
them back with an early field
goal.
Bottari Big Show
- Bottari engineered all the Cali
fornia scoring during the first
half. He tossed the forward pass
that End M o r 1 e y Mathewson
gathered In on a freak catch for
the 55-yard first touchdown play.
He broke through the line and
threw the lateral that Halfback
Louis Smith took for the second
touchdown on a 50-yard play, he
dashed 33 yards for i the third
touchdown himself and drop
kicked two of three tries for extra
points.
The Bear varsity turned on the
power to gain almost at will
through the line and around the
ends. Only In the air did the
Cougars hold an edge, and it was
only 131 to 117 yards there, al
though the Bears completed only
four tosses.
Washington State held the
edge on first downs, nine to
seven, but that was because the
Bears usually kept moving to the
goal line on their yardage-gaining
plays.
California piled up 219 yards
from rushign, while Washington
State's net was only 77. The Bear
forwards were rushing through to
smear, Cougar ball carriers all
afternoon.

Beavers Held on Defense
all Afternoon; Cain
but 19 Yards
LOS ANGELES. Oct. 1 -UPY-
University of Southern California
opened its Pacific Coast confer
ence football drive today, mar
shalling enough force late In the
third quarter to squeexe out a 7
ot 0 triumph over Oregon State
college.
The invading Beaver eleven
spent the afternoon on the defen
sive, but finally gave in before a
procession of running plays, spot
ted with a few sharp passes, that
gathered SI yards before the Tro
jan machine crossed the goal line.
Troy Offense Better
Southern California, its offense
battered to nothing & week ego by
Alabama, lunctioned . better this
afternoon as 40.000 or so looked
on, and rolled up a total of 271
yards by air and ground to a mere
19 accumulated by Oregon State.
Twice, nowever. Southern Cal
ifornia reached a distance less
than a yard from Oregon State's
goal, and twice the Trojans were
thrown back by the beefy line
(rom the north.
Beaver Passing Poor
Oregon State, once a passing
threat, tried four passes. Three
were intercepted, the other was
good for a six-yard gain.
Mickey Anderson, tiny Trojan
quarterback, bore the brunt of
the attack, but it was a reserve,
Oliver Day, who got the lone
touchdown credit by smacking the
middle of the line. The thrust was
good, but barely by inches. Phil
Gaspar's novel 'kicking toe' boot
ed the extra point.
Starting from their own 19,
Southern California's Anderson
and Bob Peoples, sophomore full
back, dug down the field. Oregon
State fought all the way, but
could not hold them back.
Biggest bet in the Oregon State
backfield was Hal Higgins, whose
punting and line backing up was
a standout. Joe Wendlick and Don
Coons, Bearer wings, likewise
were good. Coons tackled Ander
Fon so hard both were knocked
out Coons clear out ot the game.
Bob Peoples was knocked out
on the runback of the kick off.
but returned In the second half,
Anderson went out with a leg
cramp lata in the game, the only
major casualty the Trojans suf
fered.
Coach Lon Stiner praised the
Beavers, oven in defeat, and got
some satisfaction out of hearing
that Idaho, which beat him last
week, tied Washington today.

Knots Count as Idaho ,
up From Behind
By FRANK GORRIE
SEATTLE, Oct. l--Unlver-.
stty ot Idaho Vandals, a tough'
gang of Pacific Coast conference
orphans, made the touted Univer
sity of Washington football team
look anything but the champion
ship contenders today when they
fought the Huskies to a 12 to 12
tie' and left 20,000 spectators in
the Washington stadium shocked
and dazed. .
Washington, heralded far and
wide as the team to beat this sea
son for the conference title and
bowl representation, twice saw a
great and powerful Idaho ma-
chie come from behind and tie
up the count the first time in
the second period and the last
time two minutes before the end
ot the battle.
First Tie. Since '07
It was the greatest achievement
for an Idaho team against Wash
ington In 31 years. Back in 1907
the Vandals held the Huskies to
a scoreless tie, and only twice
have they emerged victorious
in 1900 and 1905.
Ray. Smith, a rangy end, was
the hero ot the fracas when -he
fought his way through a maze of
tacklers to score the final touch
down on a 17-yard end around
maneuver by Idaho. Roise missed
the try for point that would have
given Idaho victory.
Nevertheless the Vandals were
jubilant and they-' fought off
Washington's last desperate long
range passing attack and wound
up by intercepting the final aerial
heave as the gun sounded. Gor
don Price, substitute halfback,
was the lad-who plucked the pig
skin out of the waiting arms of
a Husky on the Idaho 12-yard
line.
Error Brings Scores .
Washington capitalized on two
Idaho errors for its touchdowns.
Early in the second period the
Huskies recovered Wilson's fum
ble on the Idaho 28-yard line and
Joe Dubsky,' a substitute halfback
romped unmolested to the goal be
hind a four-man interference.
Husky supporters had no more
than settled back with that "I
told you so" look. - when Idaho
began a big push that carried it
55 yards to the tying touchdown.
Roise fired long .passes to Tony
Knap and Merle Stoddard and
Knap finished the parade to the
Washington's- Sudetenland with a
17-yard end-around dash.
Ruda Mucha missed Washing
ton's extra point and Roise did no
better for the Vandals and the
half ended 6 to 6.
: After Chrape stopped a long
Washington drive by intercepting
a pass by Johnston in the third
period, the Huskies bounced right
back, at the outset .of the fourth,
recovering ChrapVs fumble on the
Idaho 43, and shooting a 45-yard
pass, Johnston to McDowell, to
the Vandal 12. .Cruver plunged

by Beating Cards 10-3
After Losing
CINCINNATI, Oct. 1HP-In a
game as whacky and delirious as
the flag race itself, the Cincinnati
Reds crushed Pittsburgh's flag
hopes . today by swamping fire
pitchers with a 17-hit attack and
a wild 9 to 6 victory before a
ladies day crowd of 13.336.
The Pirates played and fought
like a sandlot team. After over
coming a four-run deficit with a
five-run rally in 'the fourth 1 in
ning, the defense pitching col
lapsed and the loose swinging
Reds, led by big Ernie Lombardl
and Billy Myers, turned the game
into a rout.- - j
Jim Weaver Hero
Big Jim Weaver, who) rescued
Bucky Walters in the noisy Pirate
fourth, was the hero of the wild
battle. He stopped the Bucs with
two hits, one a homer by Johnny
Rlzzo. in the fifth and j then he
"turned- back the enemy) without
a man reaching first fo "the re
maining four innings, It was sweet
revenge for big Jim, whom tha
Pirates traded "down river" last
winter.
If it makes any difference,
Johnny (double no-hit) Vander
Meer will try to make it three out
of four for the Reds tomorrow.
Traynor doesn't know yet whom
he ean pitch but probably It'll h
f-Russell Bauers. who stopped tha
Reds with a four-hit job vestr
day. 1- j
