It was bones and rice again lor the coast last week-end, Southern California getting a 20-0 licking from Ohio State and ambitious Oregon, which' onco had visions of ending up in the Rose Bowl but prob ably is thinking better of it by now tnking a 14-0 setback from Michigan. Unless California's hefty Gol den Bears fare better next week against Wisconsin, there will be many a fan wondering whatever got into the Coast conference masterminds when they "chose" the big nine. However, if Lynn Waldorf can get his cripples back In condition, his California team. which shapes up at the moment as the best in the conference, may salvage soma of the inter sectlonal glory other coast teams nave squandered.

Oct. 4 (U.R) Seattle's hard-fighting Rainicrs were assured of a berth in the nor's cup playoffs today, but the geles Angels attracted all the attention with the daffiest base ball game on record. Jot down the details on the flyleaf of your baseball record book, because you'll probably never see or hear of a more pe culiar contest than the one in which the Oaks blasted the An gels, 23 to 15, yesterday. After beating Los Angeles by a respectable 6 to 3 in the first game of a Sunday doubleheader, the Acorns pulled out all the stops in the nightcap to take a 3-2 edge in their bracket of the semi-final playoff series. Thirty-six players, including 13 pitchers, found their way into the boxscore. The Oaks alone used 21 players, including seven hurlcrs. There were 43 hits 27 by the Oaks including seven home runs. Of that goodly number the Angels' Johnny Ostrowski hit two circuit clouts with the bags loaded. Harry (Cookie) Lavagetlo also hit two. The Angels turned in a triple play, when second sackcr Billy Schuster caught a liner, tagged second and threw to first. The contest, started in mid- afternoon, lasted three hours and ten minutes and wound up un der the lishts. At one point the Acorns trailed by a 14 to 6 mar gin. The payoff came when the An gels' Eddie Lukon hit a ball out of the park only to have it bounce back in. The umpires gave him a triple for his effort.

The Indians will meet the Boston Braves In the first game of the world series at Braves field Wednesday. Southpaw Gene Bearden, pitching with only one full day of rest after shutting out De troit Saturday, tamed the Ked Sox with a five hitler in their own ball yard. It was the 20th win of the season for the 28-year-old rookie from Oakland of the Pacific Coast league, and his seventh straight. Lou Boudreal, the hitting and fielding leader of his team all season, led them to tneir first pennant since 1920 with a terrific batting day. The In dians' manager hit two homers and two singles in the attack on loser Denny Galehouse and Ellis Kinder. He also drew an intentional walk. Thus the Cleveland club, which held to a two-game lead as late as Thursday morning and then fell into a tie on the closing day of the season, fin ally beat off the stubborn Red Sox at their own game the home run. Bob Feller was entrusted with the job Sunday of nailing down Cleveland's first pennant since 192 0 but the big right hander just didn't have it. Feller, striving for his 20th win and seventh stright, was pounded from the hill in the third inning when the Tigers scored four runs to sew it up. A big third Inning rally also highlighted the Red Sox victory before 31,304 at Boston.
