A monkey escaped from his cage in the Oregon Trail Pet Corral about 9:31 p.m. Saturday night and went on a glorious spree.

He knocked over collar and leash stands. He strung leather and sawdust over the floors: He fished in the goldfish bowls. He carried a white rat around. Three puppies, freed by the monkey, wandered happily over the littered floor, sniffing at the wreckage. Pedestrians milled around the locked door and watched the show in the store, which was dimly lit.

None of them knew who owned the shop, since it was sold recently by Herb Waldo. Finally, the monkey retired to a corner, clutching his white rat. There he sat with a pleased expression, surveying his havoc.

Fed by the ardor of 20,000 extremely partisan fans and the all-out efforts of the Oregon and Oregon State football teams, this tension (already whetted to a keen edge before the opening kick-off) mounted throughout the game.

It rose to frenzied proportions during the third quarter when both teams scored, and ebbed only slightly during the closing minutes of the gam after Jim' Aiken's crew appeared certain' of 'victory, their first over the Beavers sine 1940.
