Ore. i.n Hard charging Washington wore Oregon down and battered to a 18-7 vic tory here Saturday night lor its third consecutive win ol the sea son. Oregon put up a battle for the first half of the Pacific Coast Con ference game but then the visi tors power asserted itself and Washington drove to scores in each of the last two quarters. Oregon gave Washington trouble onlv for a few minutes in The clos ing: half. A passing attack carry' ing Oregon 53 yards to a touch down cut Washington's iead to 12-7 Just belore the end of the third qur.rter. But Oregon never threatened again and Washington's bulky line kept Oregon pressed back in its own territory. There center Bert Watson finally picked up an Oregon fumble in the lourth quar ter and the visitors put over the -i clinching touchdown, driving 21 yard in - seven plays. Halfback Credell Green punched over the two second half touch downs. The first one was by half back Jim Jones on a two-yard plunge climaxing a 28-yard march in (he second quarter. The first score was set up through a short 23-vard punt by Oregon. Oregon's lone touchdown came on a 13-yard pass from quarter back Jack Crabtree to end George Slender. The fiist half was even. Wash ington managed a 60-yard inarch but failed to score on that one and .Oregon drove 54 vards once and then 76 yards later without tallying. Washington got a 6-0 lead, how ever, early in the second quarter after the weak Oregon kick. The second half was a different story as Washington, fresh from a win over Minnesota, took the kickoff and ground out six consec utive first downs in marching 77 yards to a 12-0 lead. Then came Oregon's brief flurry as the unrelated quarterbacks. Tom and Jack Crabtree, passed Oregon downfield to a score. Wash ington, which previously had de feated Idaho, killed Oregon's hopes: for an upset within a few minutes. Tackle Dick Day picked up an Oregon fumble on the Oregon 41 at the start of the fourth quarter and Washington controlled the ball . through most of the . remaining time. . . .." - .

FRIDAY'S FIGHTS By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON Chuck 8pleser. 1 ',, Detroit, slopped Willie Troy 160',, Washington, 5. SDHWFSS wmm v wmm NOT MpCH DOING IN THE BYLINE FILE, spending most of our spare time out beating the brush now that deer season has 11 nally rolled around. Before we go any further BE CAREFUL if you plan on doing any buck hunting. Let's keep Klamath County an accident free county this year. Had a short talk with Bob Thompson, former mayor of Klamath Falls and strong 'booster for the Oregon Slate College Beavers, this past week, and Bob relays lnlormation pertaining to an ex-Klamath Union gridder. Thompson witnessed last weekend's Oregon Slate 10-0 win over Stanford and big John Witte. 1951 graduate of KUHS and Shrine Ail-Star standout the same year, proved to be a spark in the OSC surprise victory. Which was the IT- ART KIRKLAND football, basketbkall and head baseball coach for the Mile High Campus writes from Washington, D.C. where he Is now working and taking on some added schooling on Ihe side. Kirkland is teaching at Suilland High School, where he is assist ing in varsity football and head mentor of the junior varsity squad. The school has an enrollment of 1500 students. The former OTI coach mentioned he will he undertaker night courses at George Washington University starting September 28. (Last Wednesday). ' ' . His wife. Mary Frances, who v.iaue acnooi lacuity wnne in Klamath, Is teaching on the lilaff at Surrattville Elementary School, THIS COMING WEEKEND'S Tech Ov.ls will be a big one for Junior College, the nation's "it" here under the Modoc lights. Several people have accused Athletic Director-Head ' Coach Rex Hunsaker of going way out of bounds in scheduling competition to "out class" the locals, but the Tech headman figures it this way: His club may very well get taken by this caliber of play, but where else are his footballers going to learn better football? And where else are the sport fans of the Klamath Basin going to see this first rate team of the entire United States demonstrate its goods? Compion Is called by many the "farm club" of University of Southern California. ' This may well be because they have one of USC's greata heading the coachuig staff in Tay Brown. Three former Southern Cal graduates are assistants with Ken Carneiiter. Chuck e WIUia'Bjs and; FKlnfcJMcDiiniel aO) i fine. Taireijs were -voted the nation number two coilctrc by a leading football poll last fall, . but many gridiron experts gave 'the top spot in Junior college competition to the Compton' sqund. With the caliber of competition that the Owls have already met and 'Will be meeting, who can say Hunsaker Is the type to tnke the easy way home. Seattle's Ramblers clearly demonstrated top-flight football a week back, now Compton and Boise, which was listed third best in the' country .for JC teams. Not to mention the four year schools in the OCC that Tech has to meet. That is quite a schedule for the. two-year school on the hill. Hunsaker's agreement' with Compton Is not Just a two-year pact, it is a four-year program. Next year Tech travels to Compton and the Southern California school has promised the Mile High Campus team and coaches a trip through Hollywood and Disneyland when the Owls arrive. That is something to look forward to come next year. .This week, Compton players and coaches will be taken on a trip through Crater Lake National Park and other Interesting points on the local scene. . REMAINING ON THE OREGON TECH football scene for the time being, we can not say enough for the playing of freshman end Al Van Leuven in the Owls' opener against Seattle a week ago. The North Bend High School product and 1955 shrine all-star pleased everybody, especially Hunsaker and his line coach Dr. George .Miller. According to Hunsaker, Van Leuven played one of the best games ever put in by an Oregon Tech footballer. And It was his first attempt at college gridiron activities. If the big 180-plunder improves with "age" then OTI opposition should take notice. Even Seattle coach Don Sprinkle said he had never seen in his days of football, a freshman end look as good as Van Leuven Ihe night his warriors met the Owls. If big Al wasn't in on (he tackle, he was wiping two and three men out from In front of the Seattle ball carrier, leaving him stripped of any Interference. WORLD SERIES SHORT SHORTS , . . defense has played a very important roll in the 1955 World Series, up to the time of this writing. The double play especially. In the first game. New York's twin killing in the late innings cut Brooklyn down and the Yankees won by a narrow 6-5 margin. Then the following day, the Brooks completed three double-kills of Yankee base runners, but still lost. If they had missed the double play ball during their 4-2 loss, who knows what the final count might have been? Billy Martin and Roy Campanelia's verbal battle both on and off the playing field added some color to the already excitement packed 52nd edition of the world championship for professional baseball. Martin Is known to be a cocky ball player, but up to now he has backed up everything he said. We are wondering if Campy will be the one to slow the Yanks' field general down. It all started when Martin dropped the remark, Campy was "spike shy." Of course the Brooklyn backstop countered with a remark of his own about Martin's ability to blow hot air. Wednesday. Campy tagged Martin out at home on an attempted steal. But if you noticed, Campanella did not put the ball on the sliding Martin anyplace low, instead It was on the neck. Even Campy admits this. He stated, according to an AP writer. "I came within three inches of tagging him where I wanted to. Right in the teeth." Good old fighting spirit, which brings the best out of our great National Pastime. From the looks of things. Brooklyn may have to take another crack at the Yankees some year other than '55. Again at the time of the wrjting, the Yankees seem to have kept their hold over the Bums. Maybe it is true what the average sports fans say about the Brooks being "psyched" by the Bronx. Bombers. At the present time the Dodgers aren't out, but should they re vive themselves and win the series, it would go Into our books as the biggest blow-up of the 1955 sports year. The fall of the Yankees that is. Henley Wins Henley returned to the victory trail after last week s 6-0 loss to Merrill by dumping a county B league power Chiloquin's Panthers Saturday afternoon at Henley by a 14-0 margin. Joe Arant scored the first touch down for the Hornets on an off tackle slant from 10 yards out, and Dale Searcy tallied the other witn an end sweep from the nine yard line. The Henley extra points came on a pass from Gary Cunning ham to BC1 Miller and a kick by Arant. Jasper Strunk and Lee Roberts led the defensive game for Al Fair child's Hornets, while Arant and Searcy paved the offensive thrusts. For Chlloquln Dick Siemens led both the offense and defense charges: I UAMMDKI first time an Oregon Slate team had beaten a California team since 1947, when they dumped the same school fix)tn Palo Alto. Witte, according to Thompson and other OSC backers who saw the upset, has taken over as a teum's lender. And rightfully so. Big John, home after two years wilh Uncle Sam, is a few years older than the average teammate, and what's more important, Witte is one of the best linemen on the entire Pacific Coast. According to coach Tommy Prothro, Witte is THE BEST tackle on the coast. We will be watching thet rest of the football season for Witte progress, and are expecting an outstanding showing from the OSC Junior.

' i Stanford Upends Buckeyes By CHRIS KDMONDS PALO ALTO. Calif, iifi Stan ford's .upstart Indians living up to their chief's blithe midweek pre diction, clamped the shackles on All America Hopalong Cassady Saturday and made a lirst period touchdown stand up for a 6-0 upset victory over eighth-ranked Ohio State in an intersectional football game. ' It was nationally televised. A slim crowd of 28.000 saw the Indians score the first time they had the ball. A sneaker pass from Jerry Gustafson to Paul Camera climaxed a 72-yard drive. Stanford completely outplayed Ihe bewildered Buckeyes through out the first half. Chunky Chuck Taylor, the optim istic Stanford coach raid himself a former All America guard for the Indians, said early in the week he felt Cassady "could be had," and that he had devised a "gam bling" defense which he figured would turn the trick. It did. Cassady. an All America half back as a Junior last year, was held to only 11 yards in the first half and 26 in the second. The In dians hamstrung him virtually ev ery time he had Ihe ball. Showing nothing in the first half, the Buckeyes come to life in the second with four scoring threats, but lacked the punch to cross the fig'.iting Indians' gaal line. Jerry Hnrkrader and Don Vicic were unable to l?.ke up the Cassa dy slack alllough Ohio State con trolled the ball most of the second half. The Indians were tough in Uie clutch and stopped all threats. Tne -Stanford touchdown came from- the opening kickoff on a 12 play 72-yard -march. Gustafson, sharp as a razor with his passes, was masterful- in his team direc tion. ? " ' 'He u.'.ed the bull-like rushes of fullbacl; Bill Tarr, last year's Pa cific Coast Conference running champion, to complement his aer ial game with outstanding success. Tarr, s.ockv 190-pound senior, ripped the Buckeye tackles and guards and Gustafson nassed as thougn equipped with a bomD sigm throughout the drive. The payoff was a perfectly ex ecuted deceptive pass to Camera, all alone in the corner of the end zone, for the final yard. Tarr ripped throush the middle of the lino without the football, complete ly fooling the Bucks.. The nearest defender was a gbod ! 15 yards away when camera ' caught the boll. Mike Ruflcry's conversion try was blocked. Ohio Stale 0 0 0 00 Stanford 6 0 0 06 Stanford scoring: Touchdown Camera (1, pass from Gustafson), Shaw, Ameche Pave Way For Baltimore Win BALTIMORE W Rookie quar terback George Shaw passed and fullback Alan Ameche ran like old pros Saturday night for the Balti more Colts to spring their second straight unset in the National Foot ball League by a 28-13 score over the Detroit Lions. Shaw, the bonus pick of Ihe Colls from Oregon, passed for two touch downs, and Ameche. the first draft choice from Wisconsin, wheeled along the turf for two more to the delight of 40,030, the biggest Home crowd In four seasons of NFL play in Baltimore. It was ihe first time In six games that Baltimore had beaten Detroit. The defending winners of the West ern Division were absorbing their second straight setback of the young season, the first time it has happened In six campaigns of coaching by Buddy Parker. The Lions were behind from the beginning when Ameche rammed over for two yards at the end of an 81-yard drive, and they never got off the deck, particularly in the second half. Ameche also sprinted 58 yards through the core of the Detroit line in the second period and wound up gaining 152 yards. Last week in his pro debut he ran 78 yards' the first time he carried the ball and rushed for a total of 194 yards to be averaging more than eight yards per carry in two games.

OTI had dumped EOCE in six previous meetings. Last night s loss also marks the tirst time mat a lecn learn nas been held to a single touchdown by the La Grande school. A blistering , running attack, sparked by Dick Quinn, Bill West, Arlen Smith and Terry Ziegenhagen, ieft the Owl defenses reeling. Conversely, OTI backs were thwarted all evening by an impregnable EOCE forward wall. Neither club could score m uie nrst quarter, ana most action centered near the mid-field stripe. The Mountaineers broke into the scoring column early in the second quarter for their initial score, added two more touchdowns in the third frame, and capped offf- thcir offensive efforts in the fourth quarter with a single TD. OTI's lone six points came in the waning minutes of the final frame. EOCE's first score came with 11:25 remaining In the second quarter, after Terry Ziegenhagen's lirst entry into payout mid Dcen nullified by a 16-yard holding pen- lty six plays earlier.

Again halfback Qulnn's placement split the up rights, and the ,La Grande con tinent led. 14-0. "The EOCE score came with 10:45 remaining in the third quarter. Oregon Teen s eitorts alter uie ensuing kickoff again were to no avail, and Hunsaker s crew pum- ed to the EOCE 15, where the swivel-hipped Quinn returned me leather to the 34. The Mountain eers jacked up a quick first down, but on the following series of downs were forced lo punt lo the Owl nine. Again OTI's olfensive efforts were in vain, and Stone- hill's punt was gathered in by an other EOCE siiceuster, srien Smith, who ripped and spun his way from the Owl 32 ior me Mountaineer's third TD with 3:25 remaining in the third quarter. Qulnn's placement was true, and EOCE enjoyed their widest lead of the night. 21-0. The Mountaineers' final touch down came with 11:40 remaining in the fourth quarter. Dick Quinn, on the first play following a punt exchange, took the ball on a pitch- out from quarterback Bob Brown and romped 64 yards around rlRht end through the entire OTI crew for the La Grande team's last dent into paydlrt. Qulnn's try-for-point was blocked by Cal Smith. The fighting spirit of the Owls revived m the final quarter.
