Nhila ihe University pf Oregon defeated the Californans nn mid season by a one sided score. ale close games agains; the University ot Washington Which brought the season to an end are particularly encouraging to adheren;s of the Blue and Gold
 Much satisfaction is deri,cl from the fact that the CaliioInians scored. against both of these Northwestern universities while neither of the latter was able to gain any points against the other. This is taken 10 indicate that the Bears are aChieNir- well defined offensive which. with addi- tional experience. win prove a stnmhl- ing block to other teams on the Pa cifc coast
 The majority of the Pacific coast teams have shown an offensive which was superior to their defensive and. In this. California was no exception. With a fast baekfield and a partic- ularly fast end in the person of Cap tain "Brud" Montgomery. the Cali- fornans leaned to the open and aer- ial form Of play which was best suit ed to them and in which they met with t fair measure of success.
 They showed weakness against, the straight football tactics nf their np- ponents largely because the Califurn- ians still are new to all the niceties of perfected interference. many of theintricacies of which they are stil, learning.
 An early season weaknvs in tho .acsling department Was responsible in a large measure for some of their indifferent showngs but this failing rapidly showed improvement and to- ward the end of the season, the plnN- cry brought down the opposing run ners sharply and hard
