PALO ALTO, Calf, Nov. 15.-
The Washington State Cougars, the
real giant killers of the Coast Con-
ference, wrote one Of the Nations
great upsets into the football rec
ords today by slashing out 14-to.
13 victory over Stanfords Indians.
The fighting Cougars, passing and
plunging with a fury that forced
the favored Indians to make four
goal line stands, virtually smeared
Stanford's Rose Bowl hopes in the
turf Of their own stadium.
They lined up as the short-enders,
but these burly warriors from the
north had the T-formation boys on
the defensive almost the entire
game.
Indians Early in Hole.
Punt exchanges earlv In the first
period put the Indians in the hole
and with the ball Is yards from
goal, the Cougars rushed over a
touchdown and converted the extra
tally to lead from then on.
At half-time the score stood 7
to 0. Stanford hopes scared when
the Indians charged 68 yards to
score at the beginning of the third
quarter but they failed to make the
extra point. Frank Albert, STAN
ford's All-America quarterback of
last season and usually a reliable
place-kicker, toed the oval to one
side.
Each scored touchdowns in the
last period and each bagged the
extra tally, but Stanford still trailed
by point as the hands of the clock
tlcked on minutes, then seconds.
The game ended just after WASH
ington State broke up a desperate
last-second Stanford passing attack
from the latters 1O-yard line.
Have Slender Chance.
Although the Rose Bowl hopes
OF Stanford practically were shat
tered the Indians still have a fight.
Ing chance. They're tied now in
defeats with Oregon State and
Washington, each twice beaten.
Oregon State, however, holds the
Inside lane. having won over both
Stanford and Washington. o. S. C.
came through with a win today over
California. Should it defeat Mon
tana and Oregon in its last two
games, it undoubtedly would get
the Rose Bowl bid.
The field was slippery from heavy
morning fog that amounted to a
dri1le and Stanfords fancy maneu-.
vers from the vaunted T-formation
begged down.
There was no question as to
which team was the superior. The
Cougars charged with a viciousness
that had the Indians backed up
steadily. They rushed Albert so
swiftly he lost 46 yards from at
tempted passes as well as intercept
ing two Of his throws.
Stanfords left halfback, Pete
Kmetovic, hurt his leg in the third
period and Albert was bounced so
hard he had to come out for a rest
In the last quarter. He got back in
late in the game.

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
DURHAM, N. c., Nov 15-Steve
Lach, a rugged l90-pounder from
Altoona, Pa, did a remarkable piece
of engineering in Duke University's
stadium this afternoon.
He didn't build any bridges or
erect any skyscrapers. But he did
engineer Dukes Blue Devils into
a convincing 300 defeat Of North
Carolina. And in so doing kept
the Blue Devils undefeated, un-
tied and presumably to be invited
before long to a New Year Day
bowl game.
Lach, who plays wingback 50
that the most can be mad< of his
exceptional blocking ability, car
ried the ball only eight times. Yet,
he put in very full day. and it
was his punting, his blocking and
his defensive alertness, as much as
his ball toting, that carried Duke
to victory.
By running wide for 13 yards
on reverse, he climaxed a 41-yard
Duke drive to a touchdown early
in the second quarter-a drive he
had made possible by rolling a punt
out of bounds on the Carolina /
yard line. Before that quarter WIS
over he had snapped off one Tar
Heel threat by intercepting a pass
deep in Duke territory.
Lach Runs % Yards.
Early in the third period he got
loose for % yards up the sideline.
Duke was stopped on this drive
just beyond midfeld, but the next
time the Devils got the ball. they
sent Lach flying on two more re-
verses for II yards. The next play
was fake of those reverses, with
the big wingback carrying out his
part of the deception so well that
Fullback Winston Siegfried, who
toted the ball, was helped consid-
erably in his task of hitting tackle
for first down on the Carolina 5.
From there Siegfried, making his
gains in short chunks, bulled his
way to Dukes second touchdown
from fourth down on the I-yard
line.
Late in the quarter Lach booted
Carolina into the hole again with
a punt that rolled dead on the Tar
Heel 5. From Cardinals return
kick 1t took Duke only five plays to
go 46 yards-the last "a on forward
pass from Tailback Tom Davis TO
Sub End Ralph Morgan, which came
Immediately after Lach had gone
out of the game. apparently badly
stunned. when he slipped and was
hit while of balance on a cutback
play.
Score One for Lach.
Even in leaving the game he may
have helped his club, for as he
walked slowly to the side lines the
Duke stands took up the shout of
"a touchdown for Lach." They got
1t within few seconds.
Lach returned to the game for
the last quarter, but still appeared
groggy. Perhaps it was because of
this that Duke found itself fighting
off Carolina rallies throughout
those last Is minutes. The Devils
stopped one drive on their %.
smeared another on their 7, turned
back third on their IT, and were
IN the soup again when they FUN
bled on their first play, as the game
ended. The Tar Heels had lost IL
yards in two plays after getting a
first down on the 8.
Iach accounted for 81 Of Duke,
l94 yards rushing. The Devils had
l3 first downs to Cardinals II. while
thelr pass defense held Carolina to
II Yards on three competitions in
II tries.

Dairy Farmers
Urged To Build
Silos At Once
Good Silage Essential to Keep.
ing Milk Flow Up Dur
ing the Winter.
By ]. p. Leagans
Dairy Field Representative


One of the most serious prob
lens now confronting milk pro-
ducers in Ashe, Allegheny, and
Watauga counties is that of pre-
viding adequate feed to maintain
a reasonable milk flow during the
less favorable winter months. In
considering present milk prices,
dairymen cannot afford to allow
their milk flow to drop 500 to
900 as i often does during this
period.
The key to maintaining winter
milk flow and also to low cost
milk production is silage. Many
milk producers have already pro-
vided either trench or upright 81
los which they expect to fill when
their corn is ready. Every milk
producer with a herd of four cows
or more who does not have a sllo
is urged to consider the construc-
ton of a trench silo within the
next two or three weeks and use
an acre or two of his regular field
corn for silage. The value of each
acre of corn converted into sllage
will be increased three to five
times by increased milk flow,
healthier COWS, and low cost pro-
duction. One acre of good corn
converted. into silage will pro
vide all the silage that three ave-
rage size COWS will need during
the winter.
The trench silo can be con-
structed with very little cash out
lay. All the work can: be done
with farm labor. The. equipment
required consists of a pillow, drag
pan, shovel, pick and a team OF
mules. The construction WORK
consists of only simple excava-
ton.
For milk producers who have
only one to four cows and also
! those who cannot provide Stage
there is no better feed than tur-
nips. They are relished by cows
and a feed of 1920 lbs. per day
will materially increase the mill
! flow. The purple top or Pomeran
ian White Globe are two gooc
yielding varieties. If planted IL
early August on fertile mois
soil yield of six to eight tom
per acre can be expected from
either of these varieties. They car
be kept very satisfactorily by
killing in straw covered with two
or three inches of dirt.
Any farmer who is interested
in a silo or who desires assistance
on any phase of dairying shoulo

latter rate applying to income
over 100000. The present nor
NAL tax rate of 4 per cent was
unchanged but under the new
plan married man with no de-
pendents and earning $4,000
would pay tax of $3.50 in con-
trast to his present tax of $11.
The normal corporation income

Other increases included a S.

automobiles, a 5 per cent tax on
monthly telephone bills and 10
per cent manufacturers excise
taxes on host of articles such
as musical instruments, electrical
and Photographic equipment and
business and store machines such
as typewriters and adding ma
chimes.
The measure also increased the
tax. on liquor from So to 81 a gal
lon and wine taxes were boosted

increased so as to produce about
