LOS ANGELES, Nov. 14.-Oregon,
conqueror last week Of mighty
UCLA, was a soft touch for Southern
California today and the Trojans
scored an impressive 40 to 0 VIC
tory to move into second place in
the Pacific Coast football standings
A crowd of 10000 watched the
Oregonians, slow of foot and badly
outcharged in the line, go reeling
under a rapier-like aerial and
ground attack started by the elusive
Mickey McCardle and finished by q
group of second and third -stringers.
The Trojans had powerful one

pildriving the center of the Oregon
line and the feather-foot McCardle
keeping the jittery forwards of the
Webfoots spread just enough to be
highly vulnerable.

back for an Alabama offside penalty,

fury, trounced its old rival, Illinois.
A to 20, today to take over undis-
puted first place in the Western
Conference football race before g.
65e chilly fans.
The loss eliminated Illinois, with
one OF its strongest teams since
the boom gridiron days of the '2Os,
from the title chase. Iowa. which
r. had been In a three-way tie for the
lead with Ohio and the Illini, was
toppled by Minnesota, q to 7.
From the time little Leslie Hor-
rath, Ohio halfback, sprinted SO
yards Tor a touchdown, in the first
conference game ever staged here,
d the Bucks held the edge.
Horvath, hard driving Paul Sar-
ringhaus, the other halfback, and
Sarrnghus' alternate, red-haired
Tommy James, held the spotlight
IN the high-scoring game.
Sarringhaus Real Leader.
Horvath's first run came after
seven minutes of play. He scored
again In the third period by slip
ping around end for six yards.
But it was Sarringhaus, who uses
contact lens because Of poor vision,
who largely was responsible for
the Bucks success. Besides scor-
ing touchdowns on 1-yard plunge
and 47-yard pass from Horvath,
Sarr1nghaus punted sensationally.
James, given a chance to become
Chio's climax runner, swept wide
around end twice for touchdown runs
Of 76 and 80 yards.
Horvath's and James long runs
and a 15-yard field goal by Fullback
Gene Fekete gave Ohio a 23-to-0
lead, but Illinois still was in the
game In the second period.
Tony Botkovitch raced a kickoff
back II yards to the Ohio and
scored on the next play. The Illini
came booming back with an aerial
attack engineered by Sub Halfback

With their lead whitfield down at

Sarringhaus got one on his 1-yard
plunge and Horvath the other on
his short sprint. Ohio's last touch
down came on the Horvath-to-Sar

Illinois scored in the waning
minutes against the Buck reserves
on 13-yard pass from Don Griffin
to Sub End Bob Gibbs.
The victory was Ohio's 18th in
the teams 81 years of rivalry. Two
games have been tied. The win also
was Ohio's fourth in the conference

Three Given Awards
For Achievements by
Academy Of Sciences
Government Research
Men Receive Honors
At Cosmos Club

The annual achievement awards
of the Washington Academy OF
Sciences were made at the Cosmos
Club last night to DR.. G. Arthur
Cooper of the United States National
Museum, DR.. Sterling B. Hendricks
of the Bureau Of Plant Industry and
Theodore r. Gilliland Of the Bureau
of Standards.
The biological sciences award was
made to DR.. Cooper on the basis OF
methods developed for freeing fossils
from the limestone In which they
are imbedded by use Of solutions Of
hydrochloric acid. In the past 1t
was necessary to chip them out with
chisel and hammer, a process by
which much Of the fine detail was
lost.
DR.. Cooper has worked with fossils
of some Of the earliest animals
known on earth. Some OF his major
work has been with fossils OF trilo-
bites, creatures vaguely related to
the crabs and Holsters, which were
the dominant life in the seas OF the
Cambrian geological period, about
500 900, 900 years ago, when the first
traces of animal life appear in the
rocks.
Silica Replaces Skeleton.
For some reason which paleol-
tologists do not yet understand the
skeletons Of the creatures were re-
placed with silica and them I'M
bedded in limestone. The silica is
resistant to the action Of the acid.
With the fine detail which he has
been able to preserve, DR.. Cooper
has traced the changes undergone
by the body of the trilobite from
birth to old age.
This contribution, said DR.. Alex
ander Wetmore, assistant secretary
Of the Smithsonian Institution in
charge of the National Museum, is
one Of the two or three most sig
nificant in the field Of invertebrate
paleontology.
DR.. Cooper's most intensive work
has been with the brachyopods,
curious little animals still found in
the seas, which reached their great
est development in the Permlan
geological period. At this time the
trilobites already had passed out of
the picture and the brachyopods
themselves were being supplanted
by mollusks Of the chambered
nautilus family. The Permian has
been one Of the least known chap
ters In the history Of life. 1t was,
DR.. Cooper explained, time of
great upheavals when living things
assumed bizarre forms, many of
which hitherto have escaped detec-

X-Ray Work Wins Award.
Dr.. Hendricks was given the

of his work in X-ray, investigation

In engineering sciences for his
