late in the first quarter, after
his 49-yard sumner, but he re-
turned in the second half to
cause more havoc for Oregon

squeaked by Oregon State, 1913,
in October.

rushing and passing to Iowa's
imposing total of 408 yards.

back Joe Francis, strove nightly
to keep the Beavers in the bail

passes for 100 yards and one
touchdown and carried the ball
Is times for 70 net yards. But
his efforts fell far short.

had significant comment. The
former manager of the Phillies
said:
Il believe that if Oregon State

threatening scoring marches
were launched by the Beavers.
