4 main 10 be played in the Pacific
Coast Conference, Washington
State, by defeating the University Of
Washington, 3 to o, Saturday, won the
championship and closed a six-game
schedule for conference contests with
out defeat
The Cougars are the only unheaten
team in the conference, so although
there are several games still scheduled.
no eleven has a chance to tie Washing
ton State for the title.
Coach Hollingbery has q fine foot
ball team and want to congratulate
Washington State on winning the cham
pionship. This Is the first time the
honor has gone to the Northwest since
1925, when the University Of Washing
ton accomplished tha feat.
Victory over Washington Saturday
was by the narrow margin of a field
goal scored by Maskell, end, on the fifth
play of the game, which was played on
a heavy field during intermittent show
ers. Washington State had one or two
other scoring chances, but the battling
Huskies shut the door in their face and
showed that Jimmy Phelan, in his first
year at Washington, has developed q
powerful team.
Cougars Coming East.
Washington State plays Villanova at
Philadelphia November 20, and Eastern
fans will see g fine foot bali team, we'll
grounded in fundamentals and quick to
take advantage of the breaks. Holling-
bery's line Is very strong. No team has
scored . touchdown through this line
this season, all five scores registered
against the Cougars having been via
the forward pass.
The College of Idaho scored twice in
the air in the opening game of the year,
and Holhngbery was so disappointed at
the showing Of his players that he gave
them a tWo-hour workout after the
game. The next week the PLAYERS re-
sponded by beating California, I6 to O.;
followed this UP with a victory over
Southern California, 4 to 6, and went
on TO win the title.
We of Southern California will vel
come Washington State South II the
Tournament OF Roses sees At to extend
the Cougars an invitation to play the
New Year day game this year.
The only team with q chance to tie
Washington State for the title fell by
the wayside Saturday, when Oregon
State won over Oregon 'U," Is to O,
in game which had predicted might
see some surprises. Oregon State, I had
felt, was capable of better ball than she
had been showing this year and finally
came through Saturday to prove this
contention.
Fine work by McKalnip, Oregon
State end send the Beavers of to
9-to-0 lead in the first quarter, and
Oregon never was able to overcome
this handicap. McKalip first blocked
punt on Oregon's 15-yard line, and
Burke passed to Moe for the opening
touchdown. Later McKalip blocked
another kick and the ball went out of
bounds in the end zone for a safety
Oregon was undefeated until Oregon
State came along.
Other Games Unimp0rtant.
Other games Saturday were of minor
importance, compared TO the two in the
Northwest. Stanford defeated Cali
fornia Tech, 81 to T. after trailing to
6 at the end of the first quarter.
California won over Nevada, 8 to 0,
while Southern California had COM
paratiyely easy time with the Uniyer-
otty VI 11dWdLA % W "
One Of the most unusual scores of
the day was Loyola's 7-to-4 Victory
over the California Aggies of Fresno. |
Coached by Tom Lieb, Loyola scored |
9 touchdown early in the game, which |
was played in the rain, but only after |
the Aggies had made q safety. With
only a few minutes left to play and |
to punt the heavy. slippery ball from |
behind her goal Rather than risk the |
danger Of a blocked kick, Loyola's |
punter grounded the ball for an inten- |
tional safety.
Utah University won the champion
ship of the Rocky Mountain Confer
ence for the third consecutive season
by drubbing Colorado University, "a
to 0. The Utes have dominated play
in their conference for so long that
their victories are being taken pretty
much as matter of course by now.
