In Win Over


When the curtain went up
on the 1886 Pacific Coast
football season over the
weekend, fans saw an ap-
parently m u C h weakened
Stanford team, a surprisingly pow
erful Southern California squad,
mass display of University of
California talent and a dark horse
university of Washington eleven
that put up a valiant fight against
the national champion Minneso-
tans.
Stanford, 1885 bowl titlist, was
outsmarted by Buck Shaws first
Santa Clara team, 1870. The In
dians. who meet Washington
State next Saturday, showed but
little of the drive that swept them
through their conference schedule
with but one defeat last year.
The Minnesota Gophers had to
turn on all their power and speed
to outdistance the Huskies AT.
Washington came ont of the con-
test with Halfback Jimmy Cain
injured and other players battered
but the team expects a breather
in next Saturdays conference game
with Idaho.
University of Southern Califor-
MIA trounced Oregon State, 38-7,
in the Weakends biggest upset. The
Trojan machine, long supreme on
the west coast, showed much of
its lormer versatility and three
deep manpoWer as it swamped the
Corvallis team under barrage of
touchdoWnS.
The University of California
Bears had an easy time with the
California Aggies, beating them
$50, but ran into difficulty against
Amos Alfonso Stages College of
the Pacific eleven, which they
managed to beat 40. Stub Alli-
son poured out his plentiful shock
troops in the doubleheader, giving
little indication of the unit he
will use during the remainder Of
the campaign. The Bears meet
ST. Marys next Saturday.
U.CL.A., in a twin bill, beat
Pomona 800 and Occidental 21-0.
The Bruins meet Montana Friday
night.

Army-Navy
Teams Bow

CaleXico high school foot
ball team today was stamp
ed as the team to beat in the
Imperial Valley league af-
ter a successful invasion of
san Diego county Friday and Sat
urday afternoons.
The Bulldog gridderS demonstrat-
ed a powerful defensive and a Scor-
ng punch in walloping Sweet
water high 1872 Friday afternoon
and in trouncing Army ard Navy
academy 1870 Saturday afternoon.
Art Nazabal. Webster. Gamlin,
Dunbar. and Samaha were out
standing in the two victories. De
fensive work Of Anderson, CO
captain with Samaha, was impress
sive.
The Calexico second and third
strings held the Army and Navy
cam sooreleSs IN, the first half OF
Saturdays game and softened the
opposition for the Varsity which
oiled over two touchdowrs in the
second half.
Nazabal smashed off tackle and
salloped 80 yards for the first Cal
eXico score in the third quarter and
a pass Mendoza to Gamlin brought
the second touchdown early in the
fourth period.
The Bulldogs play their third
game OF the season Friday night
at Yuma.

Rain Robs

Of Ind Spot


NEW YORK, Sept. %.
(UP)-Baseball's eccentric
gods gave Jimmy Dykes his
bitterest pill to swallow on
the final day of the 1886
Major League season by sending
rain to Chicago and denying the
White SoX even a fighting chance
to overtake Detroit for second
money in the American League.
Cancellation of a double-header
with the st. Louis Browns yester-
day was a cruel blow to the scrap
py manager who, in three years
at the helm Of the White SoX,
has given Chicago a first division
American League team for the
first time since l920-the year af-
ter the Black SoX scandal.
Dykes club, however, upset the
preseason dopesters plenty oy
finishing third, a half game behind
the Tigers. If the White SoX had
won both of their scheduled en-
counters against the browns, they
would have ended up a half game
in front of the 1885 world champ
ions.
Highlight OF the final encount-
ers was the Chicago Cubs 7 to 3
triumph over the st. Louis Card
inals to tie the gashouse gang
for second place in the National
League-five CANT behind the
Pennant winning New York Giants
who were bowled over, 8 to 3, by
the Brooklyn Dodgers.
The Cincinnati Reds won over
Pittsburgh, to 8, but the game
did not change the standings, the
Pirates ending up in fourth place
while the Reds finished fifth, IL
games away. This contest saw
Paul Waner of the Pirates get
one hit to win national league
batting honorS with a mark of
1878, topping Babe Phelps of the
Dodgers by six points.
The sixth place Boston Bees
divided q twin-bill with the base
ment Philadelphia Phillies, Win
ming the first, 7 to 8; then falling,
4 TO 8.

what ) wrote about the team a
couple Cs mcnths ago a lot less
ridiculous. As late as July tenth
CT eleventh, just before l left for
the Olympic games, l wrote the
mcrt Llasphemous article about
the Giants. At that time it seem
Cd as improbable that the Giants
wo,lld win as that Germany
would declare Yom Kippur a ma
ticnal holiday. They were in
fifth place, eleven games behind
the leader, and the Brooklyn
Dodgers, jealous of their position
in the cellar, were viewing with
alarm.

Bill Terry Of a preseason state

D. BUDGE SCORES
UPSET VICTORY
OVER FRED PERRY

LOS ANGELES. Sept. 26. UP)-
Gangling Donald Budge's first vic
tory over Frederick j. Perry after
a three year pursuit was the world
tennis highlight today as ranking
American and foreign tennis stars
prepared for their next competition
in San Francisco.
The red-haired Oakland young
ster. who eliminated his career
yesterday by crumpling the recog-
nized world champion for a 6-3,
4-6, So, 6-3 victory in the Pacific
southwest mems singles tourna-
ment, nevertheless owed at least
part Of his success to fuzzy haired
Harpo Marx.
Harpo-breaking into speech af-
ter 10 years Of film silence-suc-
ceeded in netting Perry into a
public outburst and possibly was
the cause Of the Englishman's sud-
den fadeout.
Bulge was leading. two sets TO
one, when he drove a perfect place
ment into a corner and lineman
called it out. The crowd boOed,
and Perry. obviously annoyed, said:
Sorry, I can't do anything about
it."
The Oakland player took a So
lead. with Perry serving. The Eng
lishman faulted. but on the next
try nicked corner for an ace. The
lineman called it out and again the
crowd booed. Perry won the game,
flushed and irritable.
Then Harpo heckled him. What
ne said was lost in the uproar, but
Perry turned toward his box and
distinctly said:
I'm playing this game. If you
think you can do any better, come
uown and play"
Bulge won the next game and
the championship at love, scoring
that Perry did not attempt 10 reach.
A second upset was registered
when Alice Marble. after her first
tournament title since winning the
national championship, was jolted
by Gracyn Wheeler. Santa Monica,

Bulge teamed up with his ma
