COAST FOOTBALL
FANS REJOICE IN
TROJAN VICTORY
BY JAMES $. Shelby
United Press Staff Correspondent

If the Puritans broke the Sab
bath you would be as amazed as
the football following public on the
Pacific coast today as it reflected
on Southern CALIFORNIA; 16 to IA
fourth quarter triumph over Notre
Dame at South Bend, Saturday.
To say that the late Knute Rock
ne's RamblerS were favoriteS would
be putting it mildly The boys were
going around today wondering if
truly great Notre Dame team, lead
ing Il to O, could be smacked down
in a final period that ended Is
game winning streak.
1t dominated the national football
horizon. Even California taking
Stanford in the big Game" to @
before 10000 fans at Palo Alto faded
in comparison on the coast, And
remember, it had been seven years
since the Bear could laugh.
Oregon, under the crafty Doc
Spears, lcvelled U. c. L. A. at Los
Angeles. Is to 6, because he had
bit more power in the pinch with
Mike Mikulak and Mark Temple as
human dyanmos.
When Johnny Baker returns with
the Trojans. he very likely will be
offered the city hall instead of the
keys to Los Angeles. With min
ute and a half to play he booted
winning 24-yard field goal. Per-
haps he wouldn't have hit once II
10 in the same spot but he hit and
they paid off on it. The Trojans
were in. when it had looked as II
Notre Dame was to be written on
the margin Of goal kick.
California showed more drive
since mid-season than Stanford and
was favored to beat the Cardinals.
Hank Shaldach, hard running back,
drove for the only score that car
ried Coach Bill Ingram into the
hearts of the Golden Bear rooters.
In Second Place
The California victory gave the
Bears undisputed possession OF sec
ond place in the coast conference
standings with a percentage OF
800.
Oregon's IS to 6 win over the
Bruins was spoken OF as rather
Woody exhibition. Oregon scored in
the first period after going on a
punt blocking spree. Mark Temple
scored in two punches from the g.
yard line. The Bruins tied it in the
second period after a 14-yard Ore
gon penalty on a pass from Dupnan
to Mulhaupt in the end zone.
Mikulak led q third period often
sive that resulted in the winning
score. He tailed in two smashes
from the seYen-yard line.
Washington States Cougars beat
Gonzaga, 13 to 6, in a non-con-
ference game at Spokane. With

period. After Notre Dame got the
ball. it took only four plays for the
Irish to cover 63 yards to the Tro-
jams goal line.
It was too easy and the Irish had
a mental and physical let down
which permitted Southern Califor-
MIA to prepare for its final irresist-
ibIe drive to victory in the final
period
Another factor that had its place
in rouSing the Southern California
team to a fighting frenzy that cul-
minated in one of the most thrilling
rallies in modern football history
was an injury to Fullback Jim
Musick. The mishap was doubt
less accidental but when Musick
was kicked in the face and had to
leave the game with a broken nose
the TroianS resolved to Go some
thing about it.
After Gus Shaver, who left the
game in the second period almost
blinded in one eye from the pound
ing he had received only to come
back in the final half and throw
himself reckleSsly into conflict. had
scored two touchdowns in the final
period. Southern California travelled
from its own 18-yard line to Notre
Danes 13-yard line in less than
two minutes of play. With only a
minute and a half to go, Johnny
Baker, Trojans' great running
guard, kicked a field goal from the
23-yard line which ended Notre
Danes gridiron monarchy.
The heroes of the game were
many, but just to name a few let's
take Marchy Schwartz, who was as
great in defeat as in victory, and
Joe Kurth, the greatest lineman on
the field, for Notre Dame, and
Shaver, a smashing back: Ray
Sparkling, a superb offensive and
defensive end; Erny Pinckert. ST.
perb blocker and tackler; Captain
Williamson. center, a fine all around
player. and Orville Mohler, a dy-
manic leader.

Etching, bleeding, protruding piles
are caused by bad circulation of the
blood in the affected parts. The
parts become weak, flabby, almost
dead. Only an internal remedy can
remove the cause-that's why salves,
suppositories and cutting fail. DR..

congestion, restores circulation, heals
and strengthens the diseased parts.

CHICAGO. Nov. 23.-Notre Dame
beaten for the second time in q
years on its home field at Soutr
Bend and for the first time in q
p games in the past three years, had
no abb today for its 1914 defeat
by Southern CALIFORNIA; team o:
destiny.
We had to lose some time" said
Coach Heartily Anderson of Notre
Dame, and I'm glad that it was
/ Southern California which broke
/ our winning streak. The Notre
! Dame boys played their hearts out
and lost to a great team that de-
( served TO WIN. My hat is of to
Southern California and Howard
jones'
That statement reflects the
spirit of Notre Dame"-the feeling
of its players, students. coaches and
faculty. They have no desire to
! detract one whit from Southern
CALIFORNIA; magnificent comeback
which scored two touchdowns and
a field goal in the last period and
wiped cut Notre Danes 14-0 lead
But if Notre Dame itself accepted
! its stunning defeat gracefully. that
army of unofficial supporters which
claim the South Bend school as
their alma mater" have taken the
stand that Southern California rode
to victory on penalties inflicted on
the fighting Irish at critical mo-
mentS.
This contention is borne out by
the facts which reveal that Notre
Dame was penalized 90 yards tc
none for Southern California, and
that three Trojan passes were ruled
| complete because Of interference
The decisions on pass interference
helped the Trojans in their two
! touchdown drives.
Even Up Now
In this connection, however. these
outside Notre Dame supporters are
forgetting that Southern California
has had some very tough breaks
and decisions go against the Tro-
JAMS in previous Notre Dame
games. 1t will be remembered that
the Trojans lost the 1926 game
1912, in the last two minutes OF
play on two left-handed passes by
Art Parisien. Then in 1927. Notre
Dame won, rs, when Charley
Riley, Notre Dame quarterback, in
tercepted a pass, took a step AND
dropped the ball which was re-
covered by Southern California over
! the goal line. Referee John
! Schommer ruled that Riley did not
have possession of the ball and nc
score resulted, but there are many
coaches and football critics who
maintain until this day the Trojans
| should have had a touchdown OF
a safety.
There is little doubt that South
ern California needed the penalties
to win, but as the game was played,
the Trojans had the better team
and deserved the victory. Erny
Pinckert. Southern California;
great blocking halfback, told Los
Angeles sports writer the Trojans
probably would not have won but
for the penalties, but that the Off
Gals were justified in calling them.
One factor which played a large
part in plunging Notre Dame to de-
feat was the ease with which the
Irish scored their second touch
down. After leading TO at halt
+ time they came back to score again
! in two minutes of play in the third

conference was of no consequence.

partner in tournaments, took Mrs.
Culbertson's place last night. She will
return during the latter part of the
match Lightner is a great student OF
the game and his substitution will GER
tainly not make our task any easier.
Lightner Plays First Hand.
Lightner played the very first hand
at three no-trump, after his partner
had opened last hand with club old,
and he Eade SIX, rather good begin
ming, but I hope this is not an omen OF
what is going to happen to us in the
future. Our opponents scored the sec
ond game with two partial scores, cap
turing the first rubber of the eve
ming. scoring 1,125 points.
We also lost the second rubber, due
mostly to an unfortunate seml-pSychlc
bid on the part of my partner, but we
mad very lucky escape on one hand
OF this rubber when both sides were
vulnerable The hand follows:
North-Lenz, spades, 4, 3; hearts,
6, 5, q diamonds, jack, 7, 5; clubs,
ace, jack, 10, 6, 4.
Culbertson, spades, 7, S, 2;

South-Jacoby. spades, ace, queen,
10; hearts, jack 4; diamonds, 10, 3;
clubs, king, queen, 9. 8, 7, S.
West was the dealer and opened
with one heart, I passed and East bid
one spade, which my partner over

called with two clubs. West now
showed his second suit with two dia-
mondS, while I assisted the clubs to
three. After a pass by East, Jacoby
took a gambling chance by bidding
three no-trump. He had the spades
we'll stopped, of course. He counted
on me for the ace of clubs, which
would give him six club tricks, and as
hearts and diamonds bid by West had
never been assisted by East Ne thought
might have the shoppers in these
suits. Culbertson, wisely refrained
from doubling, knowing he had the
hand set badly, but after my pass Mr.
Llghtner came to our rescue and dou-
bled three no-trump.
After this waving of the red flag
my partner of course went to four
clubs, which was set one trick At
three no-t1lMap we would have taken
three tricks for set of LOO points.
Our opponents could have made four
hearts easily.
Finally Get Opening.
We lost two more rubbers, making it
Tour rubberS straight, for total loss
OF 1866 points which, with the minus
carried forward put us 4275 points
behind. Our opponents finally gave us
an opening on the first hand of the
fifth rubber. The hand was:

7, 6, 3, 2; diamonds, K j; clubs, ., g,

south-Jacoby, spades, A, @, 10, 8. 2;
hearts K, Q. 8, 5, 4; diamonds, none;
clubs, J, 10, g.
East was the dealer and bid one dia-
mond, which was doubled informa
torlly by my partner. West bid five
diamonds. I passed and East carried
1t to six, which was not a bad bid, as
six would have been made with the
division of the two missing diamonds.
AS II was, the contract was set one
trick.

The zeal disaster of this hand can
not be viSualized without considering
what happened on the next two hands.
When the above hand came up We were
1,645 plus.
On the next hand we set our oppo-
nentS one trick and on the hand fol-

at four no-trump contract. Although
we MADE six in the play, there was
nothing in the combined holdings CT

the slam bid. We ended the rubber
with score of 2,685, instead of the 35
which would have been our lot if the
bidding machinery of our opponents
had clicked successfully on the slam bid
and they had carried through their six

The hand on which we won this sec
