PALO ALTO, Calf. Nov. g.
Stanford's Indians. rolling toward
the Rose Bowl in unstoppable fash
ion, came from behind sensationally
today TO conquer their greatest
rivals, Washington's Huskies, 20
TO 10.
A crowd estimated at $1,000 fans,
sitting in cool but sunny weather,
saw the wizards of the West Coast
gridirons retain their unblemished
record-the only undsfeated. united

the Far Western ranks.
The comeback was the most thrill
irr OF the season in these parts.
with Washington leading, 1917, as
the teams turned into the final
period.
A few plays later the Indians
were out in front, 14-10 Not long
after, another touchdown was
written into the records-Pete
Kmetovic. left half, sprinting Is
yards with an intercepted pass.
Huskies Pass for Lead.
Washington, outplayed in the
first period and unable to cross mid
field, scored suddenly in the second
quarter on a 91yard drive. 1t was
featured by a 56-yard run by Jack
Stackpool, fullback, who, after SEEM
ingly being hemmed in, broke loose
again to reach Stanford's IS.
After a 2-yard gain through The
line, Dean McAdams, right half,
whipped the ball to Earl Younglove,
sub right end. who ran Is yards for
the score John Mizen went in as
substitute for Younglove and
booted the ball through the up
rights for the extra tally to put the
Huskies in front, TO. at halftime.
Stanford gloom was thick enough
to cut with knife as the team went
off the field at half time, and sue.
ceeding events shortly after the &C
ton started again added fresh woe
The Huskies capitalized on a STAN
ford bobble to take the ball on the
latter's 10. Vic Lindskog, Stanford
center, handicapped by a badly cut
hand, passed the ball over the head
of Frank Albert, quarterback, on a
punt attempt.
Stanford Goes to Work.
1t was fourth down and Washing
ton took possession of the ball. Line
bucks added II yards and Mizen
came in for field goal try. He
kicked the oval through to give the
Huskies what appeared a command
ing lead.
Washington, then undefeated and
united in the Conference. had the
upper hand in the most important
battle for what may eventually de-
termine the championship and the
trip to the Rose Bowl.
Behind IN the count, but long on
courage, the Indians started their
drive late in the third period. TAX

Four minutes after the opening
kickoff, the Aggies had splashed for
a touchdown-a touchdown set I'D

Preston Johnston, hurried by the

Methodist alone we're beaten,
Penn State was tied and Cornell,
