P Flushed with the confidence that only smashing victory over a. preat rival can bring, California's Hears, sole undefeated, survivors of the Pacific Coast conference, girded their football loins today for the last stretches on a march they hup will lead to the 1929 champion ship. Several hundred thousand alumnus, followers and regular fans, however, harked back to the events leading up to California's unequalled position In the football sun last Saturday's 15-7 triumph over its traditional foe. Southern California, Short-enders, conced -ed only an outside chance to even tie the game, and objects of sym pathy indeed, the Hears not only upset the "dope" but revealed a wealth of power hitherto unknown to the closest observers. Nearly 79.000 persons in the Los Angeles Coliseum -saw the Bears rise to their greatest heights to defeat a team which has been de scribed as the most powerful In the history of southern California. Next Two Kwsy, . California's next two conference games should prove "pushovers," but the third and last, with Stan ford, will be a hurdle as difficult ns the one surmounted last Satur day.

No other confer ence encounters are more bitterly contested than this annual "big game." .

The sitf of the climb is just back of the town of Gold Hill on the north side. The air beacon was installed on the top. of the mountain and a very rough Ircfil was cut through the brush in order to get the beacon to its present site. The hill has created much interest among local motorcycle fans with the result that t he climb was attempted yesterday. - About twenty locnl machines Were prosen to participate. The first to attempt the climb were Fred Christean and Al Korman. Both of the boys made several trys at the hill but were unable to reach the top. Finally Kd Stanwood showed up with his mountain enter which won the hill climb held at Ash land on July 4th, last Taking off midst a shower of dust, he wits hidden to watchers until ho had succeeded In going over the ton. Fred Christean, after seeing SUmwood oloar the hill, made a last attempt, nnd went up the hill and over the top. Al Forman also made another attempt and gained farther ground than at any prev ious time. The hill, very rough and dusty is about five hundred feet long. The caravan of motors then proceeded to the Sylvanite mine, two miles up the Sams Valley road where a rough trail led tip from the first to the second tunnels of the mine. This has been tried severnl ' times previously but no one had reached the top. The first two machines, Chrlstean's and Foreman's, made the hill in one attempt. Several others tried it but could not reach the top. The boys says that the only trouble with this hill was getting down after you got to the top. Stan- wood was present, but did not par ticipate. After several attempt, n num ber of the machines went to the Grants Pass fair grounds where races between tlte machines were held. Joe Illnurd remained unde feated champion, riding a 10-9 In dian Scout "4fi." defeating every thing from Hniiey singles to Har- ley "i4" twins, old and lute models.

FOR STATE GAME El0 EXE, Ore., Nov. 4 (JP) The University .of Oregon football team started practice today for the big game against Oregon State college on Hayward field here, on I Xovember lii. Only the Oregon 1 State encounter stands between I the university and a second suc cessive Northern division title, with the possibility of a tie with i Washington State for the honors. ' Coach John J. McEwan, Oregon I mentor, is worried about his for I ward passing defense. He does : not consider it likely that Oregon j State will make much yardage through the sturdy Oregon line, I but there is a notable weakness I in the passing defense. The Webfoots are heartened by I the showing of Iwo new backfield stars, Johnny Tondnhl, quarter,' and Hal Hatton. fullback.

Dennis is de clared to be a better man than K. O. White, Chicago colored Uii; Ber, who withdrew from the O'Orady bout, claiming that an on KiiKement in Washington with Leo Lomskl prevented him from meet ing the local flash. "If this main event Ik not one of the best ever seen here.' said Tex this afternoon. " "and if the fans are not absolutely satisfied, I will refund the price of admission to all cash cuslomers. All they have to do is to tep up to the box office and get their money back. I am confident that the boys are well matched nnd that O'Grady will have one Of the toughest fights he has ever had and he has had sev eral." This- Is Dennis' first appearance in Oregon, and he plans to make a pleasant Impression by knocking out the farmer boy in the first four rounds, Tlte colored battler from ihe Rocky mountain region is rec- 1 ogniwd as one of the best in the middlewest. He has fought 30 fights and won 26 19 of which I were by the knockout route. Ho J bat clippings to show that ho fought Babe Hunt, Oklahoma's best, six rounds to a draw and dt i en led Al Webster of Hilling, Mont., In three rounds. He won from Jack West of Yuma, Colo., in six rounds, and knocked out Hull Yanglin of Nebraska and Ralph Meagher of Denver, each in two rounds. v All these are recent fights nnd the victims of his gloves are said to be the best boys fighting in the middle west. . Dennis, a colored man of pleas ing manners, was just 23 years old yesterday, and Is a- southpaw the first ever to meet O'Grady. He claims to be better than K." O. White, whom ho has"hever met In the ring, and indicates that White was a little nfrnid to meet O'Grady. O'Grady has fought 33 bouts and has never lost one, but tonight Bickerstaff , believes ho Is taking one of his biggost chances. The sportsmanship of Gene and his manager, Hernle Hurnett, Was laud ¬ ed by local funs today in view of the chhngo that has been made in the card.
