Grid Victory
EUGENE, Nov. 21 (Pj Tne
Oregon State Rooks bottled up
the Oregon Frosh here last
night, and carried off an easy
27-0 football victory.
The alert Rook defense kept
the Frosh in their own territory
throughout the game, and when
the passing and rushing at
tempts were all over, the Frosh
had lost 15 yards more than
they had gained.
Meanwhile the Rooks scored
In every quarter. Halfback Don
Samuel, instrumental In the
Rooks' first victory of the year
over the Frosh by a 6-2 score,
tabled first for Oregon State.
He dashed 14 yards to wind
up a 53-yard Rook march.
Roy Cole passed 38 yards to
Samuel to set up the second
touchdown. Cole plunged over
for the score and also chalked
up the third touchdown on
short jab at tha line.
Bob Grove took a short pass
from John Parlno for the final
touchdown.
The Rooks compiled 13 first
downs and 215 yards from rush
ing and patting:. The Frosh made
three out of tout first downs on
penalties.
It was tha last game of the
season for both teams.

PORTLAND, Nov. 21 MP)
Reed college defeated Oregon
College of Education 13-0 here
yesterday to end Reed's football
season on .the victory note. Both
touchdowns were scored in the
second period.
It was a close decision whether
li was a fumble or an Incom

the ball from the 30, faded back
to the right, and tried the throw
as he was rushed. Ruled a fum
ble, the ball was given Vancou
ver on the Pelican 14, Alllnger,
Wellman and Grant went to the
one, and Wellman went over.
Heller's kick again was good.
The third Trapper touchdown
came on a drive from their own
45. Alllnger, on a beautiful spin
ner, went through the defensive
left tackle to the Klamath 30,
Grant made six on a reverse, Al

Klamath 17, and Grant on a left
sweep carried It 17 for the score.
Grant was almost caught, but
shook off a tackier or two before

rolled on to the Trapper 10 be

On the next play, McKay
plunged nine yards off left
guard to the Vancouver one. It
was the longest Klamath scrim
mage gain of the evening.
Schortgcn went over for the
touchdown. Vaillancour's kick
was wido.
That ended the evening's scor
ing. Vancouver's performance was
proof enough that the Klamaths,
in looking lor a tough opponent
after winning state honors,
picked the best. Most observers
agreed the Trappers were the
finest high school football team
seen on Modoc field in many
years. Their line was rugged and
the ends got into the Klamath
backficld on almost every Peli
can play.. Alllnger starred, of
course, but Grant and L. Well

Such speed and power as Al

terrific momentum carried tack

had been stopped. This led to
pilc-upj, and an unnecessary

when they needed all they had
to stop the Trapper star.
Baldy Foster, the Klamath
breakaway artist, could never
get started on his sweeps, with
the hard-charging Trapper line
swarming in on him. Foster
played a great defensive game
and once or twice stopped what
looked like possible touchdown
runs by Alllnger after the Trap
per had broken through the
scrimmage line. Mast, too, shone
on defense, but his line plunges
and favorite fake punt plays old
little against the rugged Trapper
defense.
While it was apparent the
Klamaths wore playing a super
ior team, it was also apparent
they were not playing up to their
usual standards, and the rich
reservoir of substitutes, which
was expected to count much in
the struggle, for the most part,
spent the evening on the bench.
When finally Schortgen, McKay
and Young from the bench went
In, they furnished the spark that
scored. Klamath signal-calling
and tackling were both below
the team's usual excellence.
But it was a great ball game

successful season in local grid

Willie Pep KO's Chalky
Wright in Title Battle
Ex-Bootblack Wins Featherweight Go
From Aged Negro Champ by Using Head
By SID FEDER '
NEW YORK, Nov. 21 (IPy No one did a hand-stand in Madi
son Square Garden's ring, but Willie Pep succeeded Chalky
Wright on the world featherweight throne today strictly "on hlsv
head."
, It was simply by fighting Wright the only way the aging Loa
Angeles negro can be beaten by using his head all the way
that the Pep kid is the new boss of the 127-pounders today.
Willie is a 20-year-old ex-' '
bootblack out of Hartford, who
admits he hasn't been around
long enough to have read the
entire book about the beak-busting
business. So Willie calls his
manager, Lou Viscusi, "Mr.
Brains" at all times, and it was
only by the battle plan Lou
drew up that the Hartford
jumping-jack brought the. bau
ble back to Connecticut. About
the only weapon he used, with
he exception of a dozen or so
ght hands that he let go (prob
ably by accident) through the
entire 15 rounds, was a half-
punch, half-push left jab that
bounced off Chalky's face as if
it owned it.
He "stuck" with his jab from
start to finish, and he moved
so much and so often that some
folks thought he had borrowed
the bicycle on which. Bob Pas
tor pedalled to escape Joe Louis
for 10 rounds a few years back.
It all proved highly entertain
ing to the crowd of 19,521 who
tossed $71,868.70 into Mike
Jacobs' money boxes.
Several thousand of the crowd
were from Connecticut and
were seeing Willie home. These
total s, incidentally, went to
make up the all-time high turn'
out for a featherweight fuss, out
shining by quite a bit the $63,
656 paid to see Benny Bass and
Tony Canzoneri clout each other
around 14 years ago.
Yet, now that Willie has the
championship. this fight was
nis 94tn straignt victory in a
two-year professional career-
the featherwefght follies are still
playing the two-a-day circuit.
For Pep still only owns the half
of the crown recognized by New
York state's athletic commission
and its affiliates. Pittsburgh
Jackie Wilson has the half
which has the National Boxing
association blessing.
