Bruins Conference Title Run Stopped By Oregon; Cougars Lead Again hibhhb By MALCOLM EPLEY The stories you read and heard on the air about the Oregon-UCLA game prob ably gave the individual hon ors of that great Oregon tri umph to Tommy Roblin. Rob lin did play a great game, but this fan, who saw the game, would giva the orchids to Bob . Reynolds, the negro left half back on the Duck eleven. We aren't suggesting sportswrit ers went deliberately easy on praise for Reynolds, but, after seeing the game, reading the stories, and listening to radio re-hashes, we're going to speak up for Bob. We give our personal acco lade to Brother Reynolds, be cause he played a great defen sive as well as offensive game. John Warren pulled Roblin out of the game whenever UCLA had the ball. But Reynolds was in there when either side had the ball, and he did some great defensive as well as of fensive work. . It was Reynolds who stop ped the first UCLA threat, on the first play of the game. So lari, the lightning-like Uclan back, had grabbed the ball on the kick-off, and swept around the whole Oregon team as he started down the field. He went to the Oregon 26 before the speedy Reynolds caught up with him and stop ped what looked like a certain touchdown. But there UCLA was, ready to roll on from the 26. It was Reynolds again who step ped in to intercept a pass and stop the Uclan offensive at that point. ; Roblin shone next for Ore gon, with a sparkling run over end iov 51 yards. That set up the first Oregon touchdown, but the touchdown itself was made on a pass thrown by, guess who? Reynolds tossed a pretty one to Jim Shepherd, who ran across for the score. " . ..It was on the next touch down the lone Ucla score that Reynolds made his only mistake of the afternoon. Ucla was down on the Ore gon 121-yard line. The ball went to Waterfield. Reynolds was covering Solari, out on the defensive left end. Water field faked a throw, pulling Reynolds out of position, and then made a spot pass to So lari who took it without a hand on him for the touch down, Now that, you might say, made, it just about even for Mr. Reynolds for the after noon. Maybe it did, that far, but it fell to Reynolds' lot again to stop what might have been the winning touchdown for UCLA. It was 7 to 7 In the fourth quarter. The fired-up Ukes on two plays went from their own 49 to the Oregon 14. Waterfield dropped back to pass, and tossed one to a wait ing receiver on the 5. But from somewhere came Reynolds, grabbed the pigskin virtually out of the receiver's arms, juggled it on his finger tips as he started the runback, finally got a firm hold and dodged and twisted his way for 37 yards to the Oregon 42. That was the turning point of the game. It took the fire out of the Ukes, and they never got close to a score again. It fired up the Ore gons, and they boomed from that point for 58 yards and the winning touchdown. Reynolds did his offensive bit on that drive, making the final first down close to the goal line with Roblin coming in to smash over for the score. Thus, Reynolds stopped three touchdown threats by the Ukes, let one get away from him, threw the pass for one Oregon touchdown and had a part in the second touch down drive. His individual contribution , to the Oregon triumph on the quagmirish 1 Hayward field was large, to , put it mildly. It is also putting it mildly to call Hflyward field a quag mire. There was some extant turf on the ends and along the sides, but the center of the field was a hash of mud that got hashier as the game ad vanced. The Uke bench was back against the grandstand on the McArthur court side of the field, and the Ukes waded through a couple of inches of water whenever they walked from the bench to the field. The officials chnnged balls OB virtually every ploy. Two Pro Baseball Asks Amended League Rules DURHAM, N. C, Nov. 9 (AP) Nine amendments to the Na tional association agreement and the major-minor league rules have been submitted for con sideration at the National Asso ciation of Professional Baseball Leagues' meeting at Chicago De cember 4, it was announced at the office of association presi dent, William G. Bramham, to day. Two of the amendments con cern protection of player con tracts by clubs which disband because of the war emergency.

Such con tracts would be-assigned by the league to other clubs. Grid Camp Notes SEATTLE, Nov. 9 (Uni versity of Oregon freshmen came from behind with a perfectly ex ecuted fourth period pass to snatch a 7-6 victory from the University of Washington frosh football squad here Saturday. Washington's score came two minutes after the game opened when Halfback Larry Hatch raced 34 yards for a touchdown after the Huskies gained posses sion of the ball by recovering an Oregon fumble. Six minutes before game time End Ralph Barnewolt took a toss from Benny Holcomb on a screened pass play and dashed 60 yards to score a touchdown for Oregon. Quarterback Jim Porter kicked the winning point. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9 (IP) Southern California s Trojans were faced today with the task of perfecting a gridiron machine good enough to stop Oregon the team that stopped the UCLA' Bruins' Rose Bowl hopes last Saturday. "Oregon is going to be hard to handle," Coach Jeff Cravath warned his charges, who meet the northerners here Saturday. "The minute you start taking a team like Oregon lightly, you get your ears pinned back. "I just hope my boys realize they have their work cut out for them this weekend, that's all. Aspirin for Santa Ana Air Base After St. Mary's Defeat LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9 (IP) Football players from the Santa Ana army air base shed mole skins for their regular flying togs today and went up to get a little fresh air. For it took more than aspirin to clear away the headache they suffered in that 59 to 0 defeat at the hands of the St. Mary's Navy pref light eleven yesterday. men on the sidelines with towels received and wiped the balls. We would like to see some statistics on the passing between the ball-wipers and the officials on the field. They completed most of 'em. The rain, if you were under cover, didn't detract a bit from the spectacle on the field. Many long-distance romps were made by backs on both sides, right through the huge scar of mud in the center of the field. The Ukes had some trouble at first hanging on to the wet ball, but they soon got the knack of it and there weren't many fumbles. The way ball carriers and tacklers slithered for 8 and 10 feet aft er fierce tackles was ample evidence that the field wag slick as butter, but the lads out there kept their footing in remarkable fashion. Coast Grid Upsets Sets Title Puzzle Bruins' 14-7 Defeat by Oregon Puts Coast Race in Early Season Jumble By RUSSELL NEWLAND ; SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 9 (P) Pigskin preview: Far western football offers the n.ost difficult jigsaw puzzle of the week. It is titled: "The Pacific coast confer ence championship race." Humpty Dumpty's case was elementary compared to the brain trust problem sprouting from the latest conference de velopments. The defeat of the league leading University of Cal ifornia at Los Angeles Bruins by Oregon, Saturday, jammed the production machinery of what had smoothed Into a normal sea son. The score for high riding UCLA was 7; for lowly Oregon, 14, and the result today is writ ten in mile wide figures in the record of the ambitious southern Bruins. The conference race now re verts to its early season jumble. Washington State's Cougars, this corner's original and only cham pionship selection, takes over the lead again. Tour wins and one defeat . give the northerners a percentage advantage over the Bruins, tabulated at three victor ies against one loss. From here in it will be a sur vival of the fittest and Washing ton Mate holds the inside track, take note. Its last two conference opponents are Idaho and Wash ington, the former practically a wrap-up this Saturday unless it becomes a case of mouse whip ping the biggest cat in the neigh borhood. UCLA meanwhile remains idle this weekend to nurse its wounds, then pitches Into Wash ington, Idaho and Southern Cal ifornia. The tail end of the sched ule means the Bruins must master two big rivals whereas the Cougars have but one. Conference heads, ten of 'em, who name the western Rose Bowl, representative, may be faced with this puzzler when the schedule is finished: Washington State and UCLA tied for the title. The two teams do not meet this season, a development aris ing trom the fitting of Idaho and Montana into the gridiron pro gram as lull championship com' petitors. This denouement may come to a nead Dec. 12 the date UCLA meets USC and the last confer ence game of the year. It will be interesting to see the faculty rep resentatives juggle this hot pota to, it ana when.

Seattle Shipbuilders Tie For Industries Grid Title By The Associated Press The 33-0 victories featured northwest war industries foot ball league games yesterday as the Seattle Shipbuilders clinched at least a tie for the title by de feating Vancouver and the Port land Boilermakers swamped the Spokane Manlowes. Two of Seattle's scores came after recovering fumbles inside the Vancouver Warco's 12-yard line and a third was tallied when End Lou Butkovich fell on a blocked punt in the end zone. The first period was scoreless but the Shipbuilders scored quickly in the second after in tercepting a Vancouver pass in midfield, then added another when Butkovich went around end for three yards to tally after a team mate had recovered a fumbled ball. Two more touch downs were made in the third period and the final six points were rung up in the fourth when Butkovich blocked a goal line punt. was the upset of lust week but a couple of other dandy reversuls made the muddle more complete California's Bears, 2 to 1 favor ites, were conked by Southern California.

Washington State held up its end with a 25-13 intersect ional win over invading Michigan State. Oregon State, defending conference and Rose Bowl cham pion and sidetracked with three defeats, looped in a 33-0 win from Montana. This week, with Armistice day, on tap, offers the fullest pro gram of the season. The mid week activity will be highlight ed at ' Fresno where powerful Fresno State college risks an un blemished record against the University of San Francisco. Coast conference engagements, Saturday, are less attractive than last week presenting Ore gon and Southern California at Los Angeles; Oregon State and Stanford at Palo Alto; Montana and California at Berkeley and Washington State and Idaho at Moscow. Pace setter Washington State has nothing to fear. Neither has California, whose conference chances are nil. Outcomes are vi tal to Southern California, which has lost one and tied one in the league, and Stanford, still strug gling but with two conference defeats. , The weekly precision picks: Armistice Day Fresno over San Francisco, (with halfback fellows).
