(CPU -Quarterback Willie Wood un corked a 77-yard pass play in the waning seconds Satur day to give Southern Califor nia a thrilling 14-6 victory over crippled Washington State in a Pacific Coast con ference football game. Wood, injured most of the season, stepped back from his own 23 and fired a perfect aerial to end Hillard Hill. Hill, who had outraced the defense, gathered it in on the State 41 and ran the rest of the way untouched to shat ter the Cougars' Rose Bowl dream. Until then, it appeared the game would end in a 6-6 stale mate. Both scored in the first half, but aside from the scor ing drives, the teams had battled mostly between the 30 yard lines. Bob Newman Misted Washington State was han dicapped by the loss of Quar terback Bob Newman, the nation's leading passer and All-America candidate, and second string Quarterback Dave Wilson. Newman was hurt on the second scrimmage play of the game and Wilson was hurt in the third period. Their loss grounded Wash ington State's potent air game and the Cougar's ground game could move only ip spurts. Southern California, meanwhile, was contained ex cept for a second period touchdown drive, a third pe riod drive which ended when a field goal failed, and the game-winning explosion. It marked S-C's 24th vic tory in 32 games with Wash ington State, which until to day was a prime contender to represent the dying confer ence in the Rose Bowl. Sharp IBlacE.

Morze suffered torn knee lig aments in the game against the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday and will be out of play for at least "four or five weeks." Medford High school got a sharp offensive moving in the second quarter Friday night and backed it with rock-ribbed defense to turnout a 33 to 0 non-league football tri umph over Eureka, Calif., at Eureka. The Black Tornado was hampered by penalties in a seemingly fast first quarter but struck for two touch downs in the second chukker, one in the third and two more in the fburth. Period standings were 0 to 0, 13 to 0, and 19 to 0. Running of Gerry Lyons and Ron Reich and passing of Dick Ragsdale highlighted the Medford offensive but the biggest scoring strike was by Don Peek. He ran a punt back 75 yards to the goal. A' four-yard smack by Ly ons ended a shove from mid field for Medf ord's first touch down. Ken Durkee set up an other goalward splurge with a fumble recovery around the Eureka 30-yard line. Medford ground to the goal with Ragsdale going the last yard. Ragsdale to Dean Ragsdale tossed to Lowell Dean for 35 yards and a third quarter marker. Peek's play followed. Final Tornado coun ter came with 15 seconds to play. Lyons had run across the TD stripe from the one yard line but Medford was penalized back to the 16. From there Bob Pond threw to Reich for the touchdown. Mike Murray kicked two extra points and Don Harri son one. Sharp charging by the Medford offensive line was a strong factor in the point-producing. On defense credit had to go to the entire Tornado unit. Medford allowed the Loggers a net of only 56 yards rushing. In passing Eur eka managed just 54. Sturdy pass defense permitted just four completions in 11 at tempts and Jim Clark made one interception. Gridders filling in for ail ing players had a good night. These included Don Mann taking Gary Heath's spot in the defensive line and Jerry Anderson and Terry Earl who took over for Fred and Al Funston as linebackers. Heath with an ankle sprain and Fred Funston with the flu did not participate in the game and Al Funston suffer ed an injury in the tussle. Lyons had a good night packing the ball and Reich clicked well on the reverse play. Lynn Knight's punting helped keep the Loggers sub dued. He booted five times, averaging 42.1 yards. Medford was penalized nine times for a total of 105 yards. No penalties were stepped off against Eureka.

Ohio State came back to drive 65 yards following the kickoff with workhorse Full back Bob White plunging over from a foot out.

Stanford Stuns UCLA By 21-19 Los Angeles - (UPD The quarterback partnership of Sid Garber and Bob Nicolet paid dividends for Stanford Saturday as the Indians up set favored UCLA, 21-19. be cause of their ability to kick one-point conversions. With the two teams match ing touchdowns, Stanford's re liable Bill Face kicked all three single-point conversions as well as scoring a touch down to give the Indians a victory before 39,129 home coming fans in Memorial Col iseum. But it was the Stanford passing game, with Nicolet and Garber doing the throw ing, that put UCLA in the hole from the start and kept them there as the Bruins were unable to make their conver sions. Score Called Back The Bruins lost one touch down when Chuck Kendall passed to John Brown on what appeared to be a 76 yard scoring play, but it was called back because UCLA had an ineligible receiver, Guard Joe Harper, down field. ' Kendall, taking over for Don Long who last week used up his five-game eligibility, demonstrated brilliant run ning talent but UCLA's pass ing attack bogged down aside from two touchdown throws and Stanford was able to bot tle up their running game most of the time. Stanford displayed a good running attack, thanks to Fullback Doug'Dick and roll outs by Garber and Nicolet. But its passing was the fac tor that counted.
