Gets Three First Downs, Foe Collects 23 State Scores Early In Game. LOS ANGELES, Deo. 10 t The Pacific Coast conference grid ware came to an end her today aa the Brliini of University of California at Los AnReles and Orrgon State'l Beaver struggled to a 0 to 6 tie before a disappointed crowd of less than 10.000. gnfonacCnUn&uphe'suffaoaac-Oopd Splattered all over the coliseum un der a 42 to 7 licking from Southern California last Thanksgiving day, the Uclans came back against the strong Beaver and rolled up 33 first downs to 3, and gained 368 yards to 114. The final result, however, found the Bruin giving a remarkable dent' onstratlon of traveling nowhere, for the score remained dead-locked at the final gun. Oregon State scored in the first two minutes of play. Hal Hlggins, 170-pound Beaver halfback, took the Bruin opening klckoff and ran It back 84 yards before Hal Hlrshon pulled him down on the six-yard stripe. Jim Klsselburgh butted the ball to the 8. and then Hlggins car ried It over. Hutchlna failed to con vert. The Brums recovered from the shock and twice before the half end ed pounded down within Oregon State's one-yard stripe, and both tlmaa were tossed back by the Braver forward wall. THe UCLA touchdown finally ar rived after Kenny Washington went Into the game after the half time. The lanky Negro star and fullback Bus Sutherland ran and passed the ball deep Into Beaver territory and son after the fourth period began, continued on to the 7, where Wash ington passed over the goal to Jim Mitchell, substitute end. The Bruin attempt for the extra point was wide nnd wobbly. Yards and first downs 'continued to spin under the UCLAN cleata but luck was against them. Late In the game a Beaver pass was Inter cepted within the Bruin 30-yard line. Cantor took It on a lateral from McPherson and started break ing up field. He bowled through several Beavers but he couldn't take out Referee Tom Pltr.patrlck when he reached mldfleld. The two hit hard and Cantor went down. Boos of rage roared out of the Bruin rooting section as the raplesa official trot ted away. UCLA fought on down to the Ore gon State 10-yard line, and with 11 seconds to go, tried a field goal. Jt missed. The game was the last conference contest for Coach William H. (Bill) Spauldln. who become athletic di rector next year.

It la the league's real "sugar bowl" game, with the players of the contending team splitting 00 percent of the gate receipts and the respective owners also doing rery well for themselves, thank you. Each member of the winning side will reallw something like $600 to help him throujih the winter, while the losing gladiators will pocket about M00 apiece. This Is In addi tion to their fairly fat salaries they have received In the past several months. The scramble for seats has been no enthusiastic that even the fed eral agents are trying to find out what happened to all the seats be tween the 10-yard lines. Tim Mara, owner of the Giants. Is trying hard to explain to their satisfaction. Tourney Dates CHICAGO. Dec. 10. tT The first national Intercollegiate basketball tournament will be held In Kansas City, March 13-18, the N. C. A.

T L T The wreatllm? family of Brltt Floyd and Alvln goes a-feudln' with two-thirds of the grappling family of Jones Tony and Tuffy Monday eve ning in the local armory, and the combined explosion of these two matches is expected to put to shame the worst family feud ever seen In the Ozark mountains, from whence the Jones boys hail. Floyd, the hated scoundrel and master of the Illegal arm and neck breaker over the ropes, clashes with 200-pound Tony In the one-hour main entanglement. Alvln, also an exponent of the arm-brenker ouslness and about as well liked as Brother Floyd, collides with Tuffy in the middle event. Completing the card. Little Brother Mike Jones faces Spider Kelly of Oakland. Cal., In the opener. Kelly, a newcomer here. Is a clean and scientific grnppler, as is Mike. So, the inaugural should provide much sparkling wrestling, The Floyd Brltt-Tony Jones main squabble was arranged by Promoter Mack Llllard almost Immediately after the matches last week. Brltt was literally forced Into accepting Tony's challenge, after Tony hd swatted htm on the neck for being so mean to Little Brother Mike. Promoter Llllard publicly announced that Floyd would either wrestle Tony or not wrestle at all on tomorrow uUht's program, so the Brltt bad boy was given no alternative but to ac cept Tony's challenge. It Is a ral grudge affair, and fans are looking for plenty of spilled blood. Alvln Brltt. ex-junior heavyweight champion, happens to be appearing on the card solely because of Brother Floyd's sqxical for help whrn he stsned for the Tony Jones battle. Floyd told Promoter Llllard that If Tony was allowed to have one of his brothers in his corner, he, Floyd, certainly could do the same. He Im mediately sent a hurried call for Brother Alvln. Consequently, after Alvln gets through grappling Tuffy in the middle event, he will return to act as Floyd's second. BULOVA WATCH Kxtltislvely at LARRY SCHADE H on Mlt at BROnVS.
