IUI IU1 ffl mi jy ems OLDS COAST 3 il HUSKIES AND INDIANS MAY VIE FOR BOWL By RUSSELL NEWLAND SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 21 UP) Pigskin preview and re view: The football capital of the far west shifts to Palo Alto this Saturday where Stanford's un defeated team faces Southern California's also unbeaten but twice tied eleven In the week's most Important coast confer ence game. For that matter the "capital" will be located wherever Stan ford plays due to the quirks of schedule making and so long as its record remains unblem ished. If Stanford hurdles Southern California its next opponent will be the University of Cali fornia at Los Angeles on the latter't field. The following week will bring Washington, like Stanford now undefeated and untied, to the Palo Alto battle ground. The Washington-Stanford set to now looms as the classic which will determine the Rose Bowl's western representative. Stanford's trail to this game is filled with more formidable ob stacles. Washington meets Cal ifornia this weekend, then skips a week to prepare for Stanford. Those who rooted vainly for Stanford to win a conference contest last year are tooting loudly behind a victorious com bination this season. The sec ond league triumph and fourth to win of the schedule was cel ebrated last weekend, a 26-14 setback to Washington State. Stiffer competition Is fore cast from Southern California. Comparative scores, not always reliable, favor Stanford. The latter walloped WSC by two touchdowns whereas USC was lucky to get a 14-14 tie with the same team. Each won from Oregon, 13-0. Stanford is charging and South ern California is chugging. Tab Stanford to even up for that 83-0 pasting last season. Washington, the p re-season championship selection, wrote an important and Impressive win Into its record by sidetrack ing Oregon State, 19-0.

Notre Dame, for example, crushed Carnegie Tech. 61-0, just after many writers had been commenting upon Coach Elmer Layden's merciful handling of inferior opponents. Boston Col lege smothered Idaho, 60-0. Michigan slammed Illinois, 28-0, and Pennsylvania downed Princeton, 46-28. Those two re sults pack plenty of dynamite, since Michigan tangles with Pennsylvania at Ann Arbor next Saturday. This contest will match the great Tommy Harmon of Michigan, who personally rolled up 10 points against Illin ois, and Pennsylvania's amazing halfback, Francis X. Regan, who registered 31 points against Princeton. Cornell downed Syracuse, 33 6, as a sort nt tuneup for next week's collision with Ohio State, which lost to Minnesota by' Weekend Football Scores ICSDit l FlttALS Br Tan Associated Preea Klaa-ara Sv.

WASHINGTON RUNS OVER OSC, 19-0 SEATTLE, Oct. 21 (UP) A smart, quick-thinking University of Washington football team hammered down Oregon State College, 19-0, Saturday and en tered its bid for the Pacific Coast Conference title and the Rose Bowl invitation. Breaks gave Washington its first victory over the Staters in four years before 36,000 fans who saw the teams battle through a scoreless first half on the rain soggy turf. Score at Gun Washington resurrected the Statue of Liberty play to pave the way for its first touchdown in the third period, capitalized on an Oregon State penalty for another score midway in the fourth period and then sent a man sprinting 61 yards down the sidelines as the final gun sounded for the last touchdown. A bad pass from center robbed Washington of a chance at a field goal in the second period after a march from its own 47 to the O S C 8 against a team composed mainly of reserves. Despite a slippery ball and pouring rain both teams passed repeatedly, but interceptions were frequent. Statistics reflected the Husk ies' all-around superiority. Their yardage from rushing and pass ing totaled 217 yards compared to 130 for the visitors. ' Wnsfclngton Pee.

Leo McKoen, Husky end, snared a long heave in the third minute of the first period to put the home team-in the van. The Mustangs came back to knot the count in the second half when Kirkpatrick grabbed the kickoff and eluded the entire Husky squad for a score. Midway in the third period Junior Heaton, Merrill right half, skirted his own rightend and out ran the Mustang secondary for the final touchdown, , The win left Merrill in the un beaten class and promised a ban ner tangle next Friday when the Huskies clash with Henley in a tilt that will probably decide the conference title.

Stanford scored one touch down In the first period, another in the second and two more in the third. The Cougars, playing before a homecoming crowd, struck back but lnckcd the pay off spark except in the first and final periods when they pushed over their touchdowns. Two of the Cardinal scoring plays were made by pa.vs.-s, and another was set up by the same method. Chunky Frankle "Al bert, whose play and that of big Norman Standlce sparked the Stanford attack, duclod with Bill Sewell of the Cougars for pass ing honors and finished in front. Sewell had it over Standlee in their heated race for the season punting honors.- Sewell averaged 39.4 yards, while Standlee booted for a 3S.6 figure. The first downs were nearly even IS for Washington State and 14 for Stanford. Strangely enough, the Cougars tried 29 forward passes to only 12 for Stanford, but it was the Cardin als' quick aerial strikes that proved the margin of victory. TOURNAMENT Mat Chat Jim Londos, world's greatest mat maestro, classifies Jesse James, his protege, who will appear at the armory here Tuesday night, as the best wrestling prospect of the day. James is Londo's understudy, and Is one of the country'! most handsome athletes. He is a Greek, with a perfectly propor tioned body and a thorough knowledge of the science of the game. James' opponent Tuesday night will be the fiery Italian, Pete Belcastro, former coast ti tle holder.
