Georgetown warmed up for its
VI big foot ball game with the un-

eleven next Saturday by de-
feating Fordham here today, 81 to Z.
The Blue and Gray machine piled up
l3-point lead in the opening period
and coasted along from then on with
the mighty toe of Jim Mooney keeping
the Maroon outfit at bay until his team
could make the game safe with a pair
of touchdownS in the final period.
Fordham made its only touchdown,
one well earned, in the second period
Line smasheS carried the New York
eleven down to the 15-yard line, where
Shableski took lateral pass from Bartos
and scooted around his right end with
out an obstacle in his path.
Georgetown took full advantage OF
Fordham's many fumbles, scoring its
first and third touchdowns as result
of Maroon miscues. Dallaire, Fordham
quarter, fumbled Mooney punt on his
5-yard line. Tomaini recovered for
Georgetown and Duplin tailed the
touchdown on criss-cross. A 15-yard
pass, Hudak to Dwyer, brought the Sec
ond score few minutes later.
Georgetowns third score came in the
final period when Leary. a substitute
halfback, picked up a Fordham tumble
and raced 38 yards down a clear field
to goal Two minutes later, with the
ball in Georgetown's possession in the
middle of the field, Leary shared As

Stanford Gets a Late Score
Against California in
1918 Struggle.
BY RUSSELL ]. NEWLAND,

MEMORIAL STADIUM. BERKELEY,
Calf. November "a. - Through the
gathering haze, closing in to write fin
ish to brilliant Autumn day, a leather
oval sailed today In great arc-floated
almost lazily into pair of waiting arms
and soon afterward the gun barked to
end the thirty-fourth annual game be-
tween Stanfords Cardinals and Cali
fornia's Bears In 1913 tie
A crowd of $4,000 foot ball fans mass
ed in this great gray bowl and some
10000 others clustered on the hillSides,
sat through contest filled with throb-
bing moments of play such as no other
coast game has exceeded in years.
From opening kickoff to closing gun
the traditional rivals battled with
fury seldom equaled. A California ad-
vantage, piled up in the first half by
two touchdoWnS, dwindled to nothing
ness before mighty finish that brought
Stanford into tie with its oldest COL
lege gridiron foe.
On that long pass California's hopes
to tie the coast conference champion
ship were carried to oblivion-Shattered
and crushed into the turf of their own
gridiron. 1t left them undefeated, but
twice tied during the season, while
Southern California, undefcated and
held even but once, pushed into top
hCnors by winning from Idaho today.
A thrilling last quarter, with only
minute and half TO pay, climaxed
a bitter struggle and saw California
hopes wane while Stanford supporters
reared in frenzied delight
On the short end of the count and
the huge indicator hand on the score
board ready to click to the zero mark.
Simkins, fullback, dropped back: whip
ped over his right arm and the ball
whirled across the field It crossed the
California goal line and plunked down
into the hands of Frentrup, halfback.
One California man was only an arms
length away. but not close enough to
lay hands on the leather as it ended
the 40-yard journey that tied the score
