Bell Field, Corvallls, Ore.,
Oct. 28 (JP) Oregon State
strengthened its undefeated and
untied position in the Pacific
Coast football conference by
downing a tricky but outclassed
Washington State team, 13 to 0,
before 8000 spectators.
A substitute backfield sparked
by Fullback Ken Dow, 195
pounds of driving power from
Great Falls, Mont., took over
In the second quarter and put
the Beavers out in front. This
was after a fired up Cougar
quad held the Beavers without
a single down in the opening
quarter.
Dow was the outstanding ball
carrier of the day, rolling up 79
yards in 13 tries at the Cougar
line.
With O. S. C. leading 7 to 0
and six minutes left in the game,
Big Jim Kisselburgh showed
some of his old fullback form
by taking the ball on the Cougar
35, blasting over right tackle
Into the open where he dodged
two backfield men and scoring
standing up.
Leonard Younce, who kicked
the first try for point, had the
second one blocked.
Washington State made its
strongest bid early in the fourth
quarter. The Cougars started on
their own 10, recovered a
fumbled punt on their 44 from
where a pass, Sewell to Greeley,
carried to the Beaver 31. The
drive went on to the 18 where
John Tsoutsouvas, Beaver cen
ter, intercepted Sewell's third
down pass and started the Beav
er drive that ended in the sec
ond touchdown.
Oregon State showed tremen
dous power in the pinches and
on defense prevented consistent
gains in dangerous territory.
The first scoring drive started
on the Beaver 45 yard line with
Dow smashing through the line
lor long gains and Bob Olson
passing to Joe Tomich for one
29 yard gain. Dow scored on
the second piny after a first
down on the Cougar four.

Berkeley, Cal., Oct. 28. (AP)
Southern California's thundering
Trojans passed and pounded one
lap nearer to the goal of most
football teams the Rose Bowl
today with a smashing 26 to 0
victory over University of Cali
fornia's Bears in one of the an
nual classics of the far western
season.
Three devastating surges in
the third quarter turned the
contest from a fairly close bat
tle into a wild rout. The Tro
jans scored three times, twice
on successive drives after tak
ing kickoffs.
It was the most one-sided win
in this series since 1926. When
the debacle was over, some 50,
000 fans were thoroughly con
vinced they had been watching
a Southern California eleven
which potentially is one of the
most powerful in many a year.

Robinson's Run Gives Win
To Uclans Smith Scores
Los Angeles, Oct. 28. (AP)
University of California at Los
Angeles in two spectacular playr
knocked Oregon out of the Pa
cific Coast conference undefeat
ed rank today, bowling the stub
born Webfoots over, 16 to 6, be
fore 40,000 grid fans in Memo
rial coliseum.
A tremendous forward pass
by Kenny Washington to his
dusky halfback companion,
Jackie Robinson, good for 66
yards, brought one touchdown,
and Robinson broke the Oregon
spirit in the third period with
an 82-yard sprint for the second
Bruin tally. ,
A first period field goal by
Jack Somers, towering Bruin
guard, from the 30-yard line,
started the Uclans off to the
triumph.
The Webfoots got all the
heartbreaks, outplayed the
flashy Bruins, and put over their
lone touchdown on a sustained
63 - yard drive, Bob Smith
punching the ball across on the
final lunge, but the two Bruin
backs and their two scoring
plays decided the ball game.
Three costly fumbles robbed
Oregon of a chance to win. One
came on the one-yard line after
a 62-yard march. The Bruin
field goal came after a fumble
on the Oregon 22.
The result left Coach Babe
Horrell's Uclans in the Rose
Bowl running. They are un
beaten, but tied by Stanford.
Oregon took a 6-3 lead in the
second period, with Smith and
Johnny Berry charging the ball
downfield before a crumbling
Bruin line. An 18-yard pass.
Smith to Dennis Donovan, put
the ball on the 11. and Smith
carried it across in two line
smashes.
A moment later the picture
was changed. With the ball on
the 34, Washington dropped back
and passed to the swift-footed
Robinson, racing down in the
shadows of the Oregon goal
posts. He caught it around the
20 and outdistanced the Oregon
lads for the score. Robinson
missed the conversion.
One play, 68 yards a touch
down. Oregon, In the third period,
drove to the one-yard line and
Smith fumbled to Sommcrs.
Oregon came back but Robinson
intercepted a pass on his own 18.
On the first play Robinson
on a reverse streaked down the
north sideline for the second
touchdown. One play, 82 yards
a touchdown.
Discouraged, Oregon kept
plugging. The Webfoots gained
S.il yards to 183 yards on run
ning plays, and registered 16
first downs to the Bruins four,
but to no avnll. UCLA's second
string backfield, late in the
fourth period, reached the Ore
gon 6 -yard line, but Fullback
Leo Cantor fumbled away the
threat.

WASHINGTON WINS
STORY BOOK GAME
8-5
Seattle. Oct. 28. (IP) Maybe
the baseball weather a warm.
sunny day had something to do
with it, but the University of
Washington Huskies turned In
their first victory of the season
today over the Stanford Indians
by a baseball score of 8 to 5.
The victory, Washington's
first in five starts, so enthused
the w 1 n-h u n g r y Washington
rooters that they swarmed on
the field after the game and
tore down their own goal posts.
It was a thriller with loads
of spectacular passes, fumbles
and missed opportunities and
the outcome wasn't certain un
til the final gun as the crowd
of 20,000 homecoming fans
gnawed their fingernails. There
were two safeties one legiti
mate and the other borrowed
rrom aie a neia goal and a
touchdown.
Washington drew first blood
in the first quarter when Norm
Standlee, the big Card fullback
tried to run the ball out of his
end zone from punt formation,
and Yarr of Washington charged
in and threw him into his own
scoring territory.
The Huskies then punched
and passed to the Card 13 be
fore losing the ball on downs
in the second period. After Stan
ford kicked, the Huskies fum
bled on their own 33 and Stand
lee engineered a drive to the
Husky eight. After three plays
gained four yards, halfback
Groves place-kicked a Stanford
field goal and the big red team
was ahead, 3 to 2.
Washington took command In
the third period, marching and
soaring 75 yards for a touch
down. Stanford's belated passing at
tack wasn't wheeled out until
the last quarter. One Stanford
drive ended on the Husky 19.
After a bad pass from center
forced McAdams to punt poorly
to his own 13, the Indians failed
by inches to make a first down
on the Washington 3.
At this point Coach Jimmy
Phelan rushed in sub quarter
back Elmer Berg and from
punt formation he 'stepped back
of his own end zone, automati
cally giving Stanford a safety,
similar to strategy used by Yale
against Army last week.
PELICANS VICTOR
PASS, 12-7
Klamath Falls, Oct. 28 (IP)
The Grants Pass Cavemen made
the old hidden ball play work
last night but the Klamath Falls
Pelicans won the game. 12-7.
The Pelicans scored twice in
the third period, first on a 50-
yard march and again after a
25-yard pass put them on the
Caveman four yard line.
In the fourth quarter Newman
scored for Giants Pass on a 50
yard sprint after lurking behind!
the line while the Pelicans broke'
up a fake play.

Bears, 34 to 13, before 3,500

The Lava Bears, coming here
with a fine record that showed
only one defeat, never had a
chance as the Tiger forward

Ike Orr, sub fullback, led the

JUNIOR HI
WALLOP KLAMATH
Medford junior high school's
gridiron youngsters got sweet
revenge for the 14 to 0 set
back they suffered at the handi
of the Klamath high freshmen
two weeks ago, defeating the
baby Pelicans at the stadium
last night, 19 to 0, with three
lightning scoring strokes In the
second quarter.
The score doesn't begin to tell
the story of Medford's superior
ity in every department of the
game. Twice more, in addition to
the three touchdown drives, the
yellow-clad juniors penetrated
deep into Klamath territory, on
ly to lose the ball on intercepted
passes, and they threw up such
a stiff defense that Klamath
Falls was unable to once get
past midfield.
The first of Medford's three
touchdowns in the second per
iod was engineered by a couple
of fellows named Steve. Steve
Dipple, quarterback, lined a 25
yard forward pass to Steve
Isaacs, halfback, and the latter
raced 20 more yards to cross the
goal line.
A few moments later Dipple
returned a Klamath punt 17
yards to open the locals' second
scoring march. From the Klam
ath 20 Barker swept his own
right end for nine, then picked
up four more at right tackle. A
pass from Barker to Isaacs was
ruled complete on the five yard
line, when Klamath interfered
with the receiver, and another
pass placed the ball on the one
half yard stripe. This was from
Barker to Ricks. Cliff Jones
then rammed it over, hitting off
Klamath's right tackle on a re
verse. Jones converted with a
piacekick.
Big Stan Smith set up Med
ford's third score just before the
half ended when he fell on the
ball on the one-yard line after
the .junior forward wall had
slammed through to block a
Klamath punt on the 20, the
pigskin rolling almost into the
end zone. Jones then hammered
over right guard for the touch
down. San Jose Wins
