and earn a deadlock.
Washington State put the blocks to Idaho 43 to 12 and South

larger than we anticipated and
closer than we figured it would be.

We can't help but feel a bit cheered over our average for last
week which we figure at .897. After an inauspicious start of
.666 this is quite a boost. We'll consult the tea leaves again Fri

Sophomore Fullback Leads Ball Carriers
Tommy Edwards, swivel-hipped 15-year-old fullback of the
Klamath Pelicans, led his teammates in the pigskin toting de

Huskies Take To Air
To Whip Ducks 20-6
By JACK HEWINS
-SEATTLE, Oct. 1 (4) Up in
the autumn air with tho migrat
ing goose and the smell of burn
ing leaves you'll find a football
with "Touchdown" written on
it property of a University of
Washington team which went
aloft Saturday to defeat the Uni
versity of Oregon 20 to 6.
Seven times, in this Pacific
Coast conference opener the
Huskies hurled the ball, three
times they conected and two of
these were for touchdowns. And
for their other counter they ran
their brand on an Oregon pass.
Oregon Air Minded
Oregon was even -more air
minded than its conquerors, toss
ing 16 aerials and connecting for
a touchdown on the last one with
only a minute and a half left to
play.. . But it lost five by inter

Norm Sansregret turned into a
35-yard touchdown canter in the
second period and another that
Don Rochon hauled in to set the
stage for the final Husky
counters in the fourth. '

of the Oregon aerials, but the
job that ranked with the best
pass catching was the slap-down I
