 Washington and Jefferson found holes in the California defense after the Bears kickoff, and. by plunges through center, right tackle and around left end, advanced the bali from their 25-yard line to the Cali fornia 30-yard line. On a punt forma- ton, Brenkert eluded the California
 
 goal posts, but it was called back and the Presidents were ruled off side. On the California 30-yard line, Toomey accepted w. and J. forward pass and ran it back 3i yar>s put California was off-side and the run was not allowed.
 Second Period
 The players were covered with mud when the second period opened and the field was so slippery that run ners had hard time keeping thelr feet, and the punters experienced diff ficulty in getting their boots away. The Presidents opened play by punt ing. Nichols returned the punt, send ing the ball fifty yarcs 70 W. ana Us 2O-yard line. Stein and Erickson were able to make only eight yarus on three plunges so Brenkert punt ed. California again returned the kick.
 The undefeated Californians ap- peared bewildered at the stone wall defense of the Presidents, it being al- most the first time this season they had found themselves unable to pierce their opponents iine a:nlost at will. Brick" Muller, California's star end, who did not start the game, went in during the second period, after an exchange of punts, and on his first attempt at an end run, was stopped by w. and J. tacklers. Both teams resorted to bunting, almost ex- waiting for break" The Bears toward the end of the | period found weak spo; On ;ne Pres | dents right end and, with Toomey carrying the ball, made their first | town on w. and Us 22-yard line just | before the half ended.

Nisbet | kicked off to w. anc -..s 1S-yard line l md Basista and Erickson were un lble to gain more than five yards on bucks, so Brenkert punted. Both cams fumbled and California gained he ball on the Presidents 37-yard me. The Bears then tried more line | ,lays, Toomey making three yards through left guard and Nrcnols eight round right end, but on the next Jay Toomey fumbled and Kopf re- overed
 The Bears defense stiffened, two V. and J. Bucks were stopped, and 'renkert punted to Erb who was owned on the California 37-yard line. .alifornia was off-side, however, and ne ball went back to w. and Us o-yard line. Basista and West ucked 10 yards for w. and J.'s first owns but Brenkert fumbled and ramner recovered on California's 35- ara llne. Nichols punted and w. and trled to advance by bucks, but was nabie to do so on the slippery field. forward pass, Brenkert to Konvo- hKa, however, put the ball on Cali 'rnias s 4O-yard line and Erickson lade four more yards around Muller's nd as the period ended.
