Win on Gonzaga
PULLMAN, Wash., Sept 23-OP)
-By the margin .of superiority of
one Dick Emerson, half-pint left
halfback, Washington State col
lege Cougars opened their 1939
football season here today with a
19 to victory over the Gonzaga
university Buldogs.
The 165-pound halfback was
the spark plug behind all of Wash
ington State's three touchdown
drives.
In the first quarter, after WSC
took the ball from a Gonzaga
punt after the kickoff, Emerson
passed from the Gonzaga 40-yard
line to Right Halfback Earl Ross
on the IS. Ross lateralled to Don
Greeley, quarterback, who went
over for the first touchdown of
the game less than eight minutes
after the opening whistle.
In the closing minutes of the
second quarter, Emerson inter
cepted a Gonzaga toss and ran it
back 57 yards to the Gonzaga 14.
On the next play, with Bulldogs
sifting through from all direc
tions, Emerson was blocked from
a pass formation and went around
left end for the Cougars' second
touchdown.
The Bulldogs counted midway
of the third period when Ray
Hare went over from the Wash
ington State three-yard line.
The final score came on a break
for Washington State with less
than two minutes left to play In
the game as Bill Bantz, Cougar
tackle, recovered Emerson's punt
on the Gozaga six.

Buzz Brown, the northwest lightweight and , feather

San Jose State Applies
Tricks in 16 to 6 Win w
Over Touted Foe
By RUSSELL J. NEWLAND
SAX FRANCISCO, Sept. 2Z-fP)
-San Jose State college, one of the
country's myriad "minor league"
teams, applied the football magic
of an old-time coach named Glenn
"Pop" Warner in the telling fash
ion today to defeat University of
San Francisco 16 "to 6 in one of
the biggest upsets seen here in
many a year.
The old master of the wing
back, reverses and fake reverses
was as keyed up as the rankest
freshman in the rooting section
of the state college. He puffed an
endless chain of cigarettes, hob
bled to the sidelines with the aid
of a cane to protest some San
Francisco infraction of the rules.
and huddled with his one-time
Stanford center, De Groot, on tac
tical changes designed to further
confuse the opposition.
The San Francisco eleven
ranks as one of the west coast's
major gridiron clubs.
San Jose scored the initial
points with a 20-yard field goal
from placement by Kenneth Cook,
guard, in the second period. San
Francisco came' back In the same
quarter to take the lead with a
touchdown, after an intercepted
pass on San Jose's 42.
San Jose regained the lead In
the third period on a 54-yard
touchdown drive.
A last minute San Francisco
drive was converted into a last
period touchdown by San Jose.
Bob Tichenal, captain and center,
intercepted a pass and behind fine
downfield blocking, ran 85 yards
to score.
