Oregon Sloshes Ducks Superb In Civil War 'Mud' Finale Webfoot Line & Bell Stand Out in Victory . (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) .1- t ' ''-tion that won all four games t played. While registering their first ( shutout of the season, the Orcgons aispiuyou to the natives the ca ! I ber of football that convinced Los Angolos critics they would be wor thy representatives of the coast .at Pasadena. Van Brocklin un- limbercd his precious right arm only often enough to open up the Beaver defense, permitting George Bell, Bob Sanders and Woodley Lewis to roll up more than 200 yards through the goo. The great quarterback proved his right to r AU-Amerlcan consideration by discarding the threat of that same right arm after Oregon enjoyed a 10-0 lead with some 25 minutes of playing time remaining. He tossed only one during the entire second half. Bell, the Berkeley "Beau Brom mell," probably proved to be the greatest mudder ever to come out of California. He smashed the t.irkles and skirted the ends for , 11S net yards and more than aevcii per play more yardage than the entire Beaver backs. He played his greatest game. Van Brocklin.. completed only half of c-hit ten passing attempts and gain ed only 30 yards but those tosses answered their purpose and ho made the most of 'cm. Dick VVilklns caught two of them to lenglhen his PCC record to 27 receptions and B20 yards gained. He would have had a field day r on a dry field. Could Have Been Worse Oregon's great line managed to stop OSC's dangerous optional run-pass play better than any op ponent for years. Most of the OSC ' yardage came on reverses, with Dick Twenge doing most of the damage. Captain Don Samuel, the southpaw, completed only one of his six tries for three yards. Ken Carpenter, the righthander, .," completed two of five for 24 yards. ? -'J '; We've scon Bell Field In worse f, P'nyliK condition, but the $16,000 expended on rebuilding the grid in. ;: iron looked like a waste of money r-s-'.aa the two teams splashed around J- - in Bnkle-deep mud. Only famll . lnrlty with the players' style kept t Pr'1 scribes straight and the .. i fans were1 misled time and again oy the 1'n announcer regarding their Identity, It could have been worse. The sun was shining and it still is as far as the Oregon supporters are concerned. Oregon racked up Its 27th vic tory in the 52-year-old classic in which tlie Beavers have won 18 and seven other games ended in deadlocks. It was the first Oregon ; triumph here since the 1040 team won B0-0, also in the mud, with iLen Isbcrg carrying the load. Ore gon won 14-6 here last season. i Role Paces Mustangs To Win Over Baylor Halfbacks Scoot in Webfoot Victory eavers 10-0; California Given So . m - Indians Strang Bears, Beaten 7i -nVTINircn FROM PAC5F. n I 1 srs j , m 1 f?i 6 ' FT it it , period they were down on the Bears' 24.

Don't be surprised to find St. Mary's Galloping Gaels on Oregon's permanent football schedule. . . . With Joe Verduccl at the St. Mary's helm, relationship between the Gaels and nebfoots is solid. . . . from 19i!9 through 1935 the two schools built up a strong rivalry which wasn't renewed until this season, when the Gaels gave the Webfoots i a terrific battle before losing 14-13 and we're still as limp as a . sopping wet dish lag. With a "Governor's Cup" awarded for the winning team each ! year, the inter-state rivalry could be built up to one of the Teally I big non-conference clashes of the season both here and in San ! riuuiisu. . . . i uu u mum mill t-iiuu iiiigui iicaiiciic iu uwi mic Gaels after this year's toughie and the fact that St. Mary's had won six of the seven previous meetings, but as Jim Aiken says, "We'll play anybody, anytime, anywhere!"

Thumb tug through the old files the other day, we ran across a story about s i how Gil Dobie of Washington mastermined the Huskies to a 13-3 1 upset over California at Berkeley during the 1916 season the year is: Oregon thumped Cal 39-14 and beat Pcnn 14-0 in the Rose Bowl. Dobie had a fine tackle by the name of Mayfield, who was too sick to play and his substitute, Tidball, had little experience and could provide little defense against California's tackle smashes. . . . When Washington arrived in the Bay Region Dobie announced that Mayfield, who wasn't even on the traveling squad, would play his regular tackle position. . . . Calkins, nt the other tackle, was a good man but not in the same class with Mayfield. ... So all afternoon the Bears worked on Calkins (who played his greatest game) and Tidball might as well have brought along his knittin'. . . . After the game, much to their disgust, the Bears discovered that Tidball and not Mayfield had played the entire game. . . . Andv Smith, who later I coached those famed "Wonder Teams" of 1920-21-22-23-24, made nis calilornia debut that season. 28-Year Jinx Broken By William & Mary WILLIAMSBURG, VA., Nov. 20 (U.R) Stirred to proud perform ance by a Bowl bid, William and Mary's Indians shattered a 28 year jinx and rolled on to a 26 to 6 victory over' North Carolina State, an opponent they had nev er defeated. Little Tommy Korczwoski, William and Mary tailback, push ed his twice-beaten, twice-tied team to the victory it had to have to play in the Delta Bowl in Memphis, Tenn,, on Jan. 1. Play ing the full game in a role he usually shares with Buddy Lex, he streaked 74 yards for one touchdown and passed for two others in the first period. Boilermakers Snare 'Old Oaken Bucket7 LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 20 (U.R) Purdue, kicked around all season, staged a comeback on the ground and in the air Saturday to blast Indiana, 39 to 0, before a record home crowd of 47,161. It was a glorious season finale for Purdue, humbled six times previously. It gave the boilerma. kcrs the "old Oaken Bucket," env Diematic of more than half a cen tury of rivalry with their fellow Hoosiers, for the first time since 1943.

A crowd of 40,000, the largest ever to witness a game in this series which dates back to 1897, saw the Tigers befuddled by the passing wizardry of Clayton, the Dartmouth sophomore quart erback, who tossed for one touch down, and set up two others while completing eight out of 14 at tempts. Only the defensive play of Bill Collins, substitute Princeton Back, prevented Dartmouth's score from being higher.
