Eugene. Ore.. Nov. 29. (IP)
Forced to come from behind In
the final quarter, the orange
ahlrted Oregon State Beavers
overcame a one-point deficit
and defeated the Univeriitjr of
Oregon, 12 to 7 today.
A relentleu 60-yard drive,
concluding with a vlciout 28
yard buck and run through
center by Sub Fullback Joe Day
netted the touchdown.
. For a while in the fourth
quarter It looked as If the con
ference champlomhlp icramble
might wind up in a four or five
way tie as Oregon held a 7-8
lead. Hud Oregon held on it
would have meant Oregon,
'Washington State and possibly
Washington would be cut In for
bowl consideration.
Near To Another
But the Beavers came back
for their winning touchdown
and were on the Oregon five
yard line seeking another as
the game ended, whereupon the
Beaver subs rushed to the field
and carried off the battered
and happy grldders on their
shoulders,
After a scoreless first half
punctuated by several thrill
producing punts and runs, the
Beavers struck for a touchdown
in the first seven minutes of
the third period.
Halfback Bob Dethman re
turned a punt 15 yards to the
Oregon 38. Southpaw Halfback
Don Durdan flipped an 11-yard
pass to End George Zelllck.
On the next play "Choc" Shcl
ton, fullback, hit for two yards,
but an unnecessary roughness
penalty called against Oregon
saw Referee Jack Frell pace
off IS yards to the Oregon
1-yard stripe. Neither Dethman
nor Durdan could gain in two
. plays, but Shelton sliced off the
Oregon right guard for the final
three yards and the score
A persistently heavy south
wind swerved Sub Halfback
Warren Sinus high kick for
the extra point and it sailed
Wide.
Oregon went ahead, striking
like lightning on the first play
of the last quarter. Curt Me
eham, who played a whale of a
game at halfback, ran to his lift
with his left arm cocked as If
to pass, then he cut for the side
lines, outdistanced the Oregon
State secondary by sweeping
back to midfield and went over
the goal line with a beautiful
88-yard run.
Halfback Jimmy Newqulst's
kick was true and an upset was
in the making before a capacity
crowd of 20.S00.
Regulars Out
But the Beavers took posses
sion on their own 40 after a
punt exchange. Durdan flipped
a 10-yard pass to Zelllck on
the SO. Day hit for one, then
Durdan passed to Quarterback
George Peters for 12 yards to
the Webfoot 37. Dethman skirt
ed left end for nine and Ore
gon's Coach Tex Oliver sent in
his two regular guards. Val
Culwell and Scrapiron Rhea.
On the next play Day bucked
and barreled his way between
the two guards, was seemingly
stopped, then spun clear and
over the goal line with a 28-yard
Jaunt. Simas" try for point was
partly blocked, but It made no
difference. The Beavers drove
from their own 48 to the Oregon
five at the finish.

16-0 UPSET OVER
Tackle Reinhard Is Hero
Bears Score Early And
Never Headed.
By Russ Newlsnd
Palo Alto, Calif., Nov. 29.
UP) California's Golden Bears,
rising to inspirational heights,
wrote a stunning climax to an
up and down football season to
day with a 16 to 0 upset victory
over the defending Coast con
ference champions, Stanford's
Indians.
A crowd of 70,000 fans, brav
ing threatening weather saw the
one to three short end Bears
blast Stanford's flimsy Rose
Bowl hopes with crushing de
fensive play, after moving Into
a first period lead on a single
touchdown run.
California struck with light
ning speed a minute after the
game opened to score a touch
down, add the extra point and
go Into a lead that was never
threatened.
Nine more points were posted
in a thrilling last quarter, when
the Bears poured through to
block two Stanford punts. One
resulted in an automatic safety.
The ball bounced out of the end
zone.
The game had barely gotten
under way when the Bears, get
ting the ball on Stanford's 46
yard line, flashed to a touch
down. AI Derian, left half.
raced that distance after a cut
back Inside right end. Joe Mer
lo, quarterback, booted the
placement to make the count
7-0.
In the fourth quarter, on the
safety scoring play. Witter, right
guard, charged into Frank Al
bert before the left footed all
American quarterback of 1940
could get the ball out of reach.
With two minutes to go. Cole,
substituting for Albert, was be
hind his own goal to kick.
Whalen, California quarterback,
sliced through this time. The
ball popped up into the air and,
big Bob Reinhard, left tackle of
the Bears, leaped into the air to
clutch it for a touchdown. Mer
lo added the extra point again
with place-kick.
The Bears, battered Into five
defeats earlier In the season,
were invincible today. There
wasn't the question of a doubt
at to which tchool had fielded
the better team for the 1941
playing of a gam started back
In 1892.
California played the kind of
a game that two other teamr
used to beat the T-formatlon
rushing the passer. Hero of the
encounter wat 220-pound Rein
hard, playing his last conference
game. His Instructions were to
keep his eyes on Albert and he
carried them to the letter.

TO EKE OUT 14-13
Los Angeles, Nov. 30. (IP)
Washington and Southern Cali
fornia clashed in another of
their bitter grid battles today
and the Huskies from the north
west, riding on luck, pulled out
with a narrow 14-13 triumph.
The struggling Washington!
fashioned two plays, each good
for 30 yards, to hold back a Tro
jan that dominated the contest
and all but tied it up with a
touchdown In the last seven sec
onds of the game.
Just as a pair of missed con
versions robbed the Troys of a
tie with miRhty Notre Dame a
week ago, so did two bad after
touchdown place kicks plus a
field goal attempt from the 12
yard stripe cost them a chance
for a tie or a triumph today.
A scanty crowd of 35,000
threatening clouds held it down
saw Washington's sophomore
halfback ace, Erickson, hurl a
mighty pass for SO yards and a
touchdown to Left End Young
love In the second quarter for
the opening score of the engage
ment. Southern Cal's stalwarts, led
by Bobby Robertson, took the
second half kickoff and with a
great burst of power marched
75 yards in nine playt for a
score, Robertson charging
through the line for the final 14
yards.
From then on Into the last
quarter the ball game belonged
to Coach Sam Barry's Trojans,
even if the top score didn't.
Twice they whipped within scor
ing range, only to miss out.
Suddenly, after De Lauer had
missed his field goal try from
the 12, and again the Troyt had
been stopped by a pass intercep
tion by the Washington center,
Harrison, the Huskies took pos
session, worked up to midfield
and Stackpool, the fullback,
slipped off a tackle, and as the
Trojans let him on through, gal
loped SO yards down field for
the winning score.
The Trojans continued to try,
and. finally tallied In the last
seven seconds when the Huskies,
stalling for time, had to punt on
fourth down from their 20. Bob
Snow was the punter and the
Trojan line proved to be the
blocker. They slammed Into
Snow, the ball bounced back
ward into the end zone and De
Lauer recovered for a touch
down. De Lauer kicked this
extra point, but It was too late
the game ended in a few more
seconds.

TONY ZALE WINS
DEFEATS ABRAMSlTOLD WEDNESDAY
By Sid Feder
New York, Nov. 29. VP) As
a reward or a punishment for
becoming the first whole, one
piece middleweight champion In
a decade, Tony Zale sat back
peacefully today and heard Pro
moter Mike Jacobs match hint
with Billy Conn for a 12-round
bout February 13 in Madison
Square Garden.
Boasting a body attack like
nothing that's been seen around
these parts since Paul Berlen
bacb blasted Buys wide open,
the Gary (Ind.) tteel-worker
came off the floor to nip Georgle
Abrams in their red-hot 160
pound title tussle last night In
the Garden.
Under protest, Johnny Ray,
Conn's vest-pocket manager,
gave a half-hearted okay to the
fight between his battler and
the new middleweight boss, but
along Jacobs beach the .betting
was slightly better than even
money that the tussle never
would come off.
Certainly, Zale looked all
over the best of the 160-pound
collection in tossing those tum
my torpedoes at Abrams after a
first-round knockdown before a
crowd of 10,004. But a lot of
the beachcombers scratched
their heads and wondered why
that win should shoo the sturdy
steelworker head on into Conn.
That's like hitting a punch
board for a baby grand piano,
provided you can carry It home.
