field combination with
Maentz, Grayson and Alustiza
that packs power, has speed, pass
ing and defensive strength that
should satisfy the most critical
and ambitious alumnus. This
combination decisively defeated
U. S. C. in every department o.
the game and gave the Trojans
the first beating in 80 games.
The Stanford victory upset all the
predictions of the experts and put
Stanford in a position to tie for the
Pacific Coast championship with Oregon.
The defeat of U. S. c. marks the end
of their complete domination Of coast
foot ball.
The entire Stanford horde played
super-charged foot ball, but Corbus,
Grayson, Hamilton and Moscrip were
outstanding. Cotton Warburton was
the only Trojan to live up to his repu-
tation by his 45-yard run for U. S. C.s
lone touchdown. The remarkable fea-
ture OF the game was the high per
centage OF completed passes by both
teams-six out of seven completed for
Sanford, and six out of 10 for U. S. G.
w WASHINGTON met a California
w team that was so hot that the
California players were smoking
at the shoe tops and after getting away
to bad start on a blocked punt by
Boone, Californias right tackle, that
was converted into touchdown by the
recovery, Washington never regained
consciousness and continued to tumble
punts, throw wild passes that were In
tercepted for touchdowns, until the
Huskies of Washington finally proved
that they were out to make almost
every error known to foot ball.
The California line outcharged
Washington on both offense and de-
tense and had a decided advantage in
the use OF three complete teams on
hot day. The performance of California
against Washington makes one wonder
what happened to this potentially great
team in its two tie games and one loss.
Playing the brand of foot ball Cali
fornia showed Saturday, Stanford will
have something to think about in the
Dig game Two weeks AenCe.
Although California scored 80 points,
the figures show that only 126 yards
we're gained from the line of scrimmage
to 123 yards for Washington and the
first downs registered favored Wash
ington to 6. But California cashed
in on every Washington error and was
not forced to open up its bag of tricks.
~ RECON proved to be the power
house organization that it has
been all year by crashing run
ming attack which smashed the hitherto
undefeated Oregon Staters' hopes for
championship. Oregon has not thrown
passes all season and does not need
this method of attack when they can
continue to show the sustained drive
and excellent kicking they have to date.
Mikulak firmly established his right
as the big shot among the coast backs.
His defensive play has always been
supreme, but his line bucking has i'm
proved with every game and he can
are distributed.
Norman Franklin played great ball
for Oregon State, but could not get
loose The game was so hard fought
that Oregon lost two star linemen by
injuries, Hughes, center, and Eagle,
tackle. oregon State lost Schwarnmel,
a tackle. These injuries will be felt
In the Oregon-U. S. G. and the Ford
ham-O. S. C. games.
Washington State defeated Idaho by
the superior quarterbacking of Phil
Sarboe in a game that turned into
wild passing affair with a total Of 80
passes by the two contestants. Idaho
outgained Washington State. but this
was offset by superior punting. Willis
Smith, Idaho's fiashy midget back, re-
turned punt 81 yards for Idaho's lone
touchdown.
T>HE San Diego Marines refused to
sign an armistice with U. c. L. A
and elected to continue the fight
until the final gun found them on the
short end of a 14-to-13 score. Cheshire
Kuble and Linesay were too fast for
the Marines.
Montana. led by Stansbury and
Elastic, solved the Gonzaga passes and
turned loose fourth-quarter passing
and tumble tussle with numerous penal
ties and both teams disregarded ARM
stice day until reminded Of the national
holiday by the officials.
Hawaii supplied the upset of the
Rocky Mountains by defeating Denver,
7 to 6. Colorado almost stopped the
long winning streak of Utah which
would have been something to write
about. but Coach Armstrong; Utes had
the final punch to lead, 13 to 6. Mon
tana State lost its final game of the
season to Idaho Southern Branch, l3 to
8. Colorado Aggies nosed out the Utah
Aggies by field goal and the favorite
