COMMON FOES
 ARE TO CLASH
 IN ROSE BOWL
Fans Given Opportunity to Compare Rivals in
 January l Game

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal, Dec, Matching of Stanford and Southern Methodist for New Years Day offers an opportunity unusual to Rose Bowl competition---a chance to compare the teams on the basis of performance against common en- emy.
 Their common opponent was the University of California at Los An geles. U.CL.A. put the only blot on Stanford's record this season with a 7-6 victory on October 12, but in turn was crushed by the Texas aer- ial circus, 21-O on November Il.
 Simple subtraction thus gives the Mustangs a 22-point advantage over the Indians, but statistics of the two games show them much more closely matched.
 In first downs Stanford holds net edge of four. s. M. U made IT first downs against the Uclans to 16 for Tiny Thornhill's Indians, but on the other hand Stanford allowed only four while the Texas defense was cracked for seven.
 Stanford Out -Rushes' S.M.U.
 Yardage by rushing shows sim liar lead of 42 yards for the west erners, who ran up POS yards on the ground against U. c. L. A., three more than were gained in similar fashion by s. M U. CHA, however, ran the ball IA yards against the Texans and only 75 against Stanford.

 The Pacific Coast Conference has only one more playing date-Friday night-left on the schedule, and the Beavers are now cinch to win first honors. On Friday the Beavers will bowl against the Lum- berjacks, and the Vandals will com pete with the Huskies. There are no games scheduled for tonight. The Big Ten Conference will bowl three games on Thursday evening Cyclones vs. Hawkeyes, 7:30 pm; Hoosiers vs. Cornhuskers, 8:30 pm; and Maroons vs. Irish, 9;30 p.m.- and two games on Saturday, the last playing date of the conference bowling season.
 J. E. Barragar, Jr., of the Beav- CTS, bowled consistent scores-179, 180. and 202-for last nights best three game total, 561 M A. Snow of the Bears was second with a total of 538, and Tom Petrich of the Lumberjacks was third with 531. Petrich displayed a flash of bowling form in his second game that resulted in a score of 235, the best individual game score of the evening Mrs. H.

It is in the passing game where Coach Matty Bells MethodistS show the biggest edge. They completed l7 out of 29 aeriaLs against UCLA for a total of 183 yards and lost four by interceptions. The more conservative Stanford eleven passed IT times while losing to UCLA but completed only four for 48 yards Three were inter cepted.
 No conclusive indications can be drawn on pass defense, for UCLA threw only two passes against the Indians. both incomplete. Its pass ing attack was also fruitless against ISMU, although it tried hard. Of IS passes, only three were completed for 30 yards and four were inter cepted
 The statistics set forth that Stan ford outkicked UCLA by 23 yards while the latter outpunted the Tex as eleven by CA yards. The Indians in the same way show better aver age on punt returns than SMU, and suffered less yardage loss from pen alties.
