Reinhard Hero
Of Stunning
Cal Victory
By RUSS NEWLAND .
PALO ALTO. Calif.. Nov. 20-
Upl-California's Golden Bears,
rising to inspirational heights,
wrote a stunning climax to an up
and down football season Satur
day with a 16 to 0 upset victory
over the defending Coast confer
ence champions, Stanford's In
dians.
A crowd of 70,000 fans, brav
ing threatening weather to watch
the 48th renewal of the west
coast's most colorful gridiron
classic, saw the 1 to 3 short end
Bears blast Stanford's flimsy Rose
Bowl hopes with crushing de
fensive play, after moving into a
first period lead on a single touch
down run.
California struck with light
ning speed a minute after the
game opened to score a touch
down, add the extra point and
go Into a lead that was never
threatened.
Nine more points were posted
In a thrilling last quarter, when
the Bears poured through to block
two Stanford punts. One resulted
in an automatic safety. The ball
bounded out of the end zone.

The game had barely gotten
under way when the Bears, get
ting the ball on Stanford's 48-
y a r d line, flashed to a touch
down. Al Derian, left half, raced
that distance after a cutback in
side right end. Joe Merlo, quar
terback, booted the placement to
make the count 7-0.
In the fourth quarter, on the
safety scoring play, Jean Witter,
right guard, charged into Frank
Albert before the left footed all
America quarterback of 1940
could get the ball out of reach.
With two minutes to to, Al
Cole, substituting for Albert,
was behind his own goal to
kick. Glen Whalen, California
quarterback, sliced throu; h
this time. The ball popped up
, Into the air and big Bob Rein
, hard, left tackle of the Bears
and also an all-America hold
over from last season, leaped
into the air to clutch It for a
touchdown. Merlo added 'the
extra point arain with a place
kick. The Bears, battered into five
defeats earlier in the season, were
Invincible Saturday. There wasn't
the question of a doubt as tp
which school had fielded the bet
ter team for the 1941' playing of
a series started back in 1892.
California played the kind of
a game that two other teams used
to beat the T-formation rushing
the passer. Hero of the encounter
was 220-pound Reinhard, playing
his Jast conference game. His in
structions were to keep his eyes
on Albert and he carried them
to the letter.
Relnhard's feats overshad
owed those of every one else
on the field. He was In on many
of the tackles. In the third per
iod he was In with two team
mates on the blocking of one
of Albert's punts.

Navy Man-Power Surges
Into Action in Second
Half to Sink Army 14-6
MUNICIPAL STADIUM, Philadelphia, Nov. 29.-()-The
man-power which had sent Navy into action as a pronounced fa
vorite over Army Saturday paid off in the second half.
Outcharged, outfought and outscored by a scrapping, snap
ping Cadet eleven for the first two quarters, the Middies came
back fresh at the start of the third period and never even let
Army get its hands on the ball

until they had driven to two
touchdowns. That made the final
score Navy 14, Army 6, for Navy's
third straight triumph in this
classic series and 17th in the 42
games that have been played.
There was no stopping the
Middles la that third quarter,
and there was no getting by,
through or over, them for the
balance of the half. Army still
was in there trying, but It made
only one serious threat, a drive
to first down on the Middle 17
that ended abruptly when Bill
Busik intercepted an Army
pass two plays later.
Busik, bowing out of this riv
alry together with a whole raft
of first and second classmen who
will be graduated into the fleet
either next month or next June,
made nis xareweu .appearance a
dazzling one.
He ran and he passed, but most
particularly he ran. This 185
pound six footer from Pasadena,
Calif., was just so many pounds
and so many feet of twisting,
squirming, fighting dynamite that
either hit at the holes or made
holes where none had been prepared.

yard stripe cost them a chance
for a tie or a triumph Saturday.
A scanty crowd of 35,000
threatening clouds held it down
saw Washington's sophomore half
back ace, Bob Erickson, hurl
mighy pass for 50 yards and
touchdown to Left End Young
love in the second quarter for
the opening score of the engage
ment.
Southern Cal's stalwarts, led by
Bobby Robertson, took the sec
ond half kickoff and with a great
burst of power marched 75 yards
in nine crisp plays for a score,
Robertson charging through the
line for the final 14 yards. But
Bob De Lauer missed the conver
sion. That made it 7-6.
From then en lnte the last
Quarter the ball game belonged
to Coach Sam Barry's Trojans,
even if the top score didn't.
Twice they whipped within
scorring range, only to miss out.
Suddenly, after De Lauer had
missed his field goal try from the
12, and again the Troys had been
sopped by a pass interception by
the Washington center, Harrison,
the Huskies took possession,
worked up to midfield and rangy
Jack Stackpool, the great full-
b a c k for the north westerners,
worked a play that decided the
outcome. He slipped off a tackle,
and as the Trojans let him on
through, galloped 50 yards down
field for the winning score. Elmer
Berg, the trusty place kicker for
Jimmy Phelan, trotted in and
booted his second conversion.
The Trojans continued to try,
however, and finally tallied in
the last seven seconds when the
Huskies, stalling for time, had to
punt on fourth down from their
20. Bob Snow was the punter and
the Trojan line proved to be the
blocker. They slammed into Snow,
the ball bounced backward into
the end zone and Max Green re
covered for a touchdown. De
Lauer kicked this extra point,
but it was too late the game
ended in a few more seconds.
Southern California, with Rob
ertson in the starring role, rang
up 14 first downs to seven for
Washington, and outgained the
invaders on both he ground and
in the air. But that was all.
