FIELD GOAL PUTS
STANFORD ON TOP
Moscrip Makes Kick After
Grayson Runs II Yards
to Get in Range.
BY the Associated Press.


DALO ALTO, Calf, November q
On an accurately booted field goal
after a spectacular 77-yard ground
drive engineered by all-America
fullback Bobby Grayson, StanfordS
Indians defeated University Of Santa
Clara's Broncs, to 6, today.
The margin between a tie score, as
was the case last season. and hard
earned victory was established early
in the fourth period. James Monk"
MoScrip, left end who beat Washington
a week ago with a pair of field goals,
stepped into hero's role again to-
day, but his feat was made possible only
by the sensational running and passing
of Grayson.
MoScrip toed the oval from a diff
cult angle with a kick that travelled
13 yards. The ball was passed back
for him from the 5-yard marker. To
reach that point, Grayson packed the
ball 10 times for a total of 35 yards
in addition to throwing three passes
for A yards. A few yards were lost
on penalty and setback on run.
Behind the line Grayson was the
whole show for Stanford, especially
after he came back in the second half
after being taken out in the second
period through a recurrence of an old
ankle injury.
