LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18 - (JP) -Southern
California's Trojan foot
ball machine dealt Oregon State's
Rose Bowl hopes a sad blow to
day, wrecking the Beavers, 48 to
6, before 61,301 fans in Memorial
Coliseum.
Still generating heat, after
crushing Ohio State a week ago,
the red shirted Troys hit the score
board for seven touchdowns and
handed the Beavers from the
northwest the worst beating a
Trojan eleven has registered since
the two teams first met in 1915.
The Beavers hoped to hurdle
past Southern Cal and, , with' a
comparatively easy schedule for
the rest of the year, figured in
pre-season prediction to be a
strong threat for the honor of re
presenting the Pacific coast con
ference in the Rose bowl Jan. 1.
They were completely over
matched in all departments. USC
didn't have to punt until the final
two minutes of the game and the
Beavers never got past the mid

broken up by Weinmeister.
In the first period Leicht shot
off right tackle for 36 yards to the
goal line, but Oregon was penal
ized for illegal use of the hands
and the score didn't count A mo
ment later Vah Brocklin whipped
a pass from the 30 to End Larry
Stoeven into the flat. An Oregon
holding penalty set the Ducks back
to the 36.
Oregon shot passes a!! over the
field but powerful line thrusts
yielded most of their yardage. The
Husky line fell apart periodically
throughout the game.
Until well into the fourth quar
ter Washington's backfield per
formance was ragged. In that per
iod the line tightened. Backs
Hatch and Provo beg jr. clicking,
but Oregon's line held them out
of scoring territory.
Oregon counted 18 first downs
to 6 for the Huskies. Four of the?e
came on passes. Washington piled
up its total all on rushing. The
Ducks advanced 345 yards1 by
passing and rushing, compared
with 147 for the Huskies.
