Stanford Outplayed.
Palo Alto, Calif Nov. 15.
(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

Berkeley, Calif., Nov. 13. 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. Joe Day,
substitute fullback, crashed
through center for 12 yards, and
alternated with Right Half Don
Durdan in edging the ball up
to the line in four thrusts
through the fighting Bear line.
Everett Smith, sub left halfback,
powered through guard for the
touchdown. The try for point
by Warren Simas, sub quarter
back, was blocked.
Bqth teams, fighting bitterly,
were close to touchdowns
earlier, In the second period the
Beavers, aided by a 15-yard pen
alty against. California, began
driving goalward from the Bear
34.. They reached the one-yard
line, but there Fullback Lewis
Shelton hit a stone wall at cen
ter, fumbled over the goal line
and California Halfback Zach
arias recovered for a touchdown
to end the threat.
Shortly after the half two
long passes from California's
halfback, Billy Reinhard to End
Ray Dunn carried 33 yards to
the Beaver's four-yard line, but
from there Reinhard was nailed
for losses on two consecutive
plays and a pass was batted
down.
Back on the 18, the Bears
tried a field goal, from a diffi

Quarterback Joe Merlon sailed
under the cross bar.
