Oregon State opened the scor ing in the third period, but Ore gon came back on the first play in the fourth to make a touch down and convert for a one-point lead. A sell-out crowd of 20,500 went wild when the OSC plowed back down the field for the de ciding touchdown. After being held on Oregon's one-yard line in the second per iod, Oregon State came back midway in the third for the open ing score. Taking Koch's kick on the Oregon 38, the orange-jerseyed Staters launched their drive. A pass, Durdan to Zcllick, was completed to the Oregon 27. State made 12 in two line thrusts and a 15-yard penalty against Oregon for unnecessary roughness put them with their backs to the wall. Choc Shelton rammed over from the three-yard line.

When the whooping and fun-making had subsided Saturday night, all the townspeople and students knew was that Oregon State had won the Pacific Coast conference championship by beating Oregon at Eugene, 12-7, and had earned the bowl bid. But they didn't know who OSC was going to play and neither did the handful of school officials who stayed closeted with ears glued to long distance telephone calls nor the scribes who kept a death watch outside the door. "We've selected the team, but can't announce it until we re ceive acceptance," was the ver dict. At one time or another the rumors swung in favor of Ford ham, Missouri, Duke, Texas and a couple of others. Then Sunday the officials, after getting replies to their feel ers, learned Fordham and Mis souri had closed for the Sugar Bowl. Later came the accept ance from Duke. The game will match bowl wise Wallace Wade, the Duke coach who will be making his fifth trip to the Rose Bowl, against 38-year-old Lon Stiner, youngest Coast conference coach who, like his school, will be making his first appearance in the Pasadena saucer. Stiner said he was tickled with the Duke selection because "It's the only major team with an undefeated, untied record, and that ought to make a good talk ing point for me with my boys. They wanted Duke, too." Husky, thin-haired Lon was nervous, excited, happy and worn out all the same time. He didn't get a chance to relax until last night when he and his wife and the families of his coaching staffs got together and concoct ed this parody, which just about summarizes the way the town feels: ' Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way 'Oh what fun it'll be to ride in the bowl on New Year's day." CORVALLIS, Dec 1 UP) Ab breviated classroom hours per mitted student celebrations to day of Oregon State college's first Rose Bowl entry in history. Football players were feted at a morning rally and a victory dance was held in the afternoon. Excited students worked over time to bring out a Rose Bowl edition of the barometer, stu dent newspaper, Sunday. Coaches and players alike were swamped with congratula tions. Indications were that the vic tory whoopee would continue for several days. The faculty and Corvallis merchants will honor coaches and players at a breakfast Tuesday.

Duke Peelced-But Devils are Happy Over Rose Bowl Selection DURHAM, N. C, Dec. 1 (IP) like a kid who had peeked at his It's tickled pink about going to well, it was sort of expected. So sure was the squad that week and decided that the Rose Bowl bid would be accepted if it were received. And last night it came a bid to play Oregon State. There was a big celebration, announcement was made. It was in 1938, when the student body went crazy, Just about. It will be Coach Wallace Wade's sixth appearance in the Rose bowl. He went there first as a player on the Brown uni versity eleven in 1916. He took his first team, Alabama, there in January, 1926, and it beat the University of Washington 20-19. The next year another Wade coached eleven tied, Stanford 7-7. His last Alabama team beat Washington State 24-0 in 1931. Wade's 1939 Duke team was de feated by Southern California 7-3 on a last-minute touchdown pass. Duke's 1941 team is the high est scoring on the university's record. In nine starts the Blue Devils rolled, up 311 points. The nearest approach to that was in 1937 when the Devils piled up 228 points. Duke's undefeated, untied rec ord this year is: Wake Forest 43-14; Tennessee 19-0; Maryland 50-0; Colgate 27-14; Pittsburgh 27-7; Georgia Tech 14 0; David son 66-0; 'North Carolina 20-0, and North Carolina State 66-6. Mississippi State Wins; Army Loses By JACK CUDDY NEW YORK, Dec. 1 (UP) Oregon Slate won the Pacific Coast conference championship and its first trip to the Rose .Bowl Saturday in the feature de velopment of the football sea son's cfosing program. While Navy was beating Army, 14-6. in the day's tradi tional classic, the conference title panorama was completed as Mississippi State became king of the southeastern confer ence and Duke took sole pos session of the southern confer ence crown. Mississippi State succeeded Tennessee as southeastern cham pion by virtue of today's 6-0 victory over contending Mis sissippi. The winning tally was achieved in the second period on a long pass, followed by a 39-yard run by Jennings Moates. Mississippi's defeat, boosted Ten nessee into second place in the standing after the Volunteers downed Vanderbilt, 26-7. Duke replaced Clemson as southern conference champion, although idle today. Duke, which clinched at least a title tie last week in its final game, took sole possession of the crown today when contending William and Mary suffered its first conference defeat, 13-0, by North Carolina State. Navy sank Army for the third straight year before 98,957 fans in Philadelphia's municipal sta dium. But the Middies had to come from behind to turn the trick. They went into the sec ond half trailing 6-0. .Then Barnacle Bill Busik sparked his mates to a 69-yard touchdown drive before the third period was six minutes old. Busik re tired to the bench and his watch-charm substitute, Howie Clark, was the major factor as the Middies marched 68 yards for another tally.
