. Result Is Decisive.
Thus, over the PROSTATE form of its
oldest college rival, Stanford battered
its way to its greatest triumph since
1892. triumph that sealed the wounds
of defeat inflicted by Southern Cali
fornia and Santa Clara in earlier games.
Never had Cardinal victory been SO
welcome, SO desired as the one today.
And not since 1925 had a California
eleven been so badly beaten as the one
that tottered off the field as dusk set
tied over the great earthen home of
Stanford's foot ball clan.
Beaten on the line and out-naneu-
vered in the air, California saw its
championship hopes fade before an at
tack that was superior to its own in
every way.

message Of victory and defeat, the Car
dinals dominated the play. The team
that Coach Glenn Warner put on the
field today was two touchdowns better
than the lineup presented by Coach
G. M. "Nibs" Price.
Lone Score From tumble.
one Stanford touchdown came, from
California tumble. but In the same
fashion was CALIFORNIA; lone score post
ed on the board. Each were made in
the opening period. The Cardinals cap
italized on blocked kick In the second
period and in the fourth quarter
smashed over again after q 63-yard adj
vance.
The thirty-fifth annual big game
was the turning point in the season
career Of CALIFORNIA; game little coach,
"Nibs" Price. With its ending crashed
the hopes of the Bear leader for Nthe
first Conference title under his regime.
In the four years his teams have met
the Warner-coach products, Price has
three times come on second best. Last
year his team was tied by Stanford in
a closing rally that brought the score
to a 1913 total Stanford's victory to-
day gave five teams a claim to the
championship. AS the situation now
stands California. Southern California,
Stanford, Oregon and Washington each
has Conference defeat charged to it.
Southern California has yet to meet
ence game. with indications pointing
to a win for the first-named eleven.
Fumbles Pave the Way.
Fumbles paved the way for the first
Cardinal score, and also for California s
touchdown in the same quarter.
The Cardinals overpowered their
rivals In the second period, scoring once
and missing another touchdown by a
3-yard margin. Blocked California kicks
were responsible in each case.
In the second half the Cardinals
pounded battered Bear from one end
of the field to the other. A penalty
for roughing sent Coach Warmers war
riors back half the distance to their
goal line, a matter of 81 yards. but
a crashing offensive won back all the
yardage and 2 more to spare.
Just after the last quarter got: under
way, Stanford pushed over its third
touchdown. Moffatt dashed 8 yards
to score and kicked the try for point
from placement.
The Bears were on the defensive for
most Of the remaining time.
