California battled the Beavers
tooth and nail through the first
half and wound up with a 14-13
lead. The Bears counted a fast
touchdown on Ted Granger's 66
yard off tackle run and a second
score on a 7 yard pass from Hugh
Maeulre to Steve Dimeff.
Nick Foppln kicked both extra
; points.
The Bears threatened In the clos-
'Ing seconds when they drove the
Oregon State 22. but Poppin's field
goal try fell short as the gun sound

Wesley's running set up the win
ning field goal. He scampered for
32 of the Beavers' 43 yards In a
drive to the Cal 4. Searles' kicked
his field goal on fourth down for
the clinching points.
The first quarter fireworks,
touched off by the Beavers' sec
play touchdown, were as explosive
ae a Fourth of July celebration.
The game was -just over one min
ute old when Berry, filling in at
fullback for the injured A r 1 o

the bewildered Bears. There

The Bears weren't behind for

whipped over right tackle and was
off on his 66-yard run. The longest
previous Bear touchdown play was
a modest 28-yard burst by the

It took the Beavers only one
play to regain the lead after

By JERRY O'BRIEN
PULLMAN, Wash. I The bat
tered Washington State Cougars
finally warmed up a bit Saturday
In snow and bitter 6-degree cold to
salvage a 13-13 tie with favored
San Jose before a handful of die
hard football fans.
The estimated 400 paying spec
tators were chilled to the bone,
band Instruments froze up and the
WSC students sang "Jingle Bells."
Only one ticket was sold at the
gates.
But the Cougars, who hadn't
even scored at home this season
before Saturday, operated at times
as if it was a warm autumn day
and almost pulled out a victory in
the fourth quarter. They got to the
San Jose 20 but Frank Sarno's
field goal was short.
The weather conditions were the
worst -within memory of WSC offi
cials. The field was comparatively
free of snow and none fell during
the game, but it was a rough day
for football. There were 10 fumbles
In the first half alone.
San Jose got off to an early lead
after Stan Beasley raced 43 yards
to the WSC 30. The Cougars held,
then fumbled, and six plays later
Tony Teresa passed to Mel Powell,
who squirmed over from the five.
Teresa ran over the extra point.
The Cougars got their first home
touchdown of the year on the first
play of the second quarter. WSC's
Ken Gardner recovered Clive Bui
lian's fumble on the Spartans' six
to set it up. Bob Iverson went over
from there on a wide sweep. Sar
no's place-kick was wide.
A 22-yard Teresa to Beasley pass
play and a run of 20 by Beasley
put WSC in another second quarter
noie. That drive failed, but the
Spartans were right back. eoinK
44 yards in 10 plays. The payoff
was Joe Ulm's 3-yard plunge that
maae. it ia-i at tne half.
Iverson, playing his best game
of the year, led WSC 56 yards In
the third quarter to the tying
touchdown. He passed for 25 and
ran for another 16. making the
score from the one. Sarno's place
kick was perfect. v
Iverson, who was hurt and car
ried off on a stretcher with nine
minutes left, kept San Jose in trou
ble all afternoon with his punting.

terback John Brodle's deadly pass
ing and failure of the Oregon run
ning attack to -penetrate the big
Stanford line gave the Stanford
University Indians an easy 44-7
victory over the University of Ore
gon Ducks Saturday in a Pacific
Coast Conference football game
that never was close.
The Indians mixed up passes and
running for two quick touchdowns
in the opening period while the
Oregon backs were fumbling away
whatever chance they may have
had of staying in contention.
Throughout the first half the
Ducks relied entirely on ground
plays and their backs piled up
against the big red line.
It was only in the final period,
when they were hopelessly beaten
that Oregon attempted a passing
attack. The Indians, finished the
game with second and third string
ers scoring three touchdowns In
the final period.
Brodie's 7-yard pass to end John
Stewart climaxed an 85 yard drive
for the first Stanford score. Mike
Raftery converted, and a few min
utes later Bill Tarr finished off a
60 yard drive by banging through
tackle for 10 yards and the second
TF. Doug Dick converted.

Field Timing
PHILADELPHIA (UP) Com-
mlssloner Bert Bell of the Nation
al Football League said today the
umpire will continue to keep the
official time in league games
rather than entrust it to a score-
board clock.
Bell replied to published sugges
tions that professional football
teams use the college system of a
scoreboard clock as a means of
keeping the fans. better Informed.
In college play, an official Is
stationed on the sidelines to .feed
the time to the scoreboard clock
Bell said.
"The umpire Is the official timer
in our league, Ben saio. ne, or
the field Judge, Is in a better posi
tion to keep time than someone
on the sidelines. He is closest to
the referee who signals time out
when the ball Is dead."
The commissioner pointed out
that a clock could develop trouble
'or even freeze." He added that
some critics have said the um
pire's watch could stop function
ing, but "he could get another
one."
I still prefer the umpire," Bell
said. "My next choice would be
the field Judge. Then would come
man on the sidelln.s."
Pittsburgh Steeler president Art
Rooney had criticized the present
system of umpires keeping the oill-
clal time.
'We got the long count in Los
Angeles and the short count in
Chicago," Rooney said. "The first
gave the Rams a touchdown and
the second took one away from us.
I definitely want an official clock
operator. Let all tne fans see lor
themselves like they do In the big
college games."
In the Chicago Cardinal game
last week, an official disallowed a
Pittsburgh touchdown in the final
second of the first half. He told
Steeler quarterback Jim Finks
that it was "Impossible" to get a
play oft in one second. The Bteel
ers lost 27-13.

Into a first place tie with Los An
geles Sunday as the National
League again presents a full slate
of six games.
Most of the attention will .be
focused on Chicago where the
Bears will tangle In a return af
fair with the front-running Rams
of the Western Conference. Two
weeks ago the Bears thrashed the
Rams, 31-20, to hand Los Angeles
Its second defeat of the season.
The Rams have won five. ..
The victory was the fourth In a
row for the high-scoring Chicago
outfit after three straight losses
and tied it with Baltimore for sec
ond place, one game behind LA.
A Chicago victory together with a
Baltimore triumph over the Giants
in New York would create a three
way tie for first place.
The unchallenged Cleveland
Browns, boasting a two-game
bulge over the rest of the field In
the Eastern Division, seek their
seventh straight, meeting the Ea
