(P) Washington State's Cou gars, the real giant killers of the Pacific Coast conference. ! wrote one of the nation's great upsets into the football records by slashing out 14 to 13 vic tory over Stanford's Indians today. The fishtlng Cougars, passing and plunging with a fury that forced the favored Indians to make four goal line stands, virtually smeared Stanford's Rose bowl hopes In the turf of their own stadium. They lined up as the short enders but these burly warriors from the north had the T-for- motion boys on the defensive almost throughout the game. Punt exchanges early in the first period put the Indians in the hole and with the ball 25 yards from goal, the Cougars rushed over a touchdown and converted the extra tally to lead from then on. Take Early Lead At half-time they still led 7 to 0. Stanford hopes soared when the Indians charged 68 y.irds to open the third quarter but they failed to make the extra point. Frank Albert. Stan ford's all-America quarterback of last season and usually a reliable placekicker, toed the oval to one side. Each scored touchdowns In the last period and each bagged the extra tally but Stanford still trailed by a point as the hands of the clock ticked off minutes, then seconds. The game ended just after 'Washington State broke Bp a desperate last-second Stanford assing attack from the letter's 10-yard line.

The field was slippery from heavy morning fog that amount ed to a drizzle and as was the case In the Oregon State rainy w-ather debacle at Corvallis, October 11, Stanford's fancy maneuvers from the vaunted T-tormation begged down. Al bert's left-handed passes tailed off many times while his receiv ers lost footing at crucial times. Cougars Function Washington State's offense hiwever, functioned smoothly and the big Cougar backs poured through the left side of Stan ford's line repeatedly for good Cains. There was no question as to which team was the su perior. The Cougars punted their ri vals into a hole at the start of the encounter. They got the ball 23 yards from goal, moved up five vards on a penalty and put together four plays to score. Kill Holmes, right halfback, loped around right end for a 1 1-yard touchdown run and nis toammate Left-half Bill Sewell added the extra point by run ning the ball over.

UP) Capitalizing on a weak' Cali fornia punt, Oregon State's de termined Beavers smashed across a third period touchdown today for a 6-0 victory over the Golden Bears. The Beavers' hard-fought vic tory, coupled with Stanford's surprise loss to Washington State, threw the Pacific Coast conference lead into a three-way tie. A disappointing gathering of 20,000 sat through a first half as dull as the skies overhead, but in the third period the Beav ers found themselves on the Bear 35 by virtue of a punt by California's halfback. Bob Rein hard , that traveled only five yards his only bad kick of the game. The Beavers were quick to seize their opportunity.
