Power Machine Tramples State Defenses to Win By Score of 30 to 0. BY GEORGE H. BEALE, United Press Staff Correspondent, Olympic Stadium, Los Angeles, Oct. 3. (U.R) Southern California got its power machine working today and it crushed Oregon State, 30 to 0, in a coast conference game here.

Forty-five thousand fans saw the Trojans brush aside the Beavers by scoring four touchdowns, kicking one field goal and making the point after touchdown three times. Oregon State had only one real chance to tally and it threw that away by drawing 25 yards in penalties after it got the ball on the U. S. C. 14-yard line.

There was nothing particularly brilliant in the Trojan victory. Rather, it was an exhibition of gruelling drive that was too much for the northerners. Shaver, Musick and Pinckert furnished most of the yardage by which U. S. C.

scored. All the touchdowns except the last resulted from long, steady drives up the field with a short plunge across the line. The last saw Mohler going over from the four-yard line after Griffith, substitute fullback, intercepted an Oregon State pass and ran it back 51 yards. Shaver turned In the first three Southern California touchdowns and Ernie Smith, tackle, contributed the field goal. Smith was standing on Oregon State's 25-yard line when he booted the field goal in the third quarter.

Moe, State halfback, starred for the northern team. When Southern California plays were stopped, it was usually Moe who did it and he was on the receiving end of the two good forwards that the Beavers turned in during the game. Three First Downs. Oregon State made only three first downs and Its passes failed to connect regularly. In turning in its victory U.

(U.R) Scoring in the last few minutes of play, the desperate Stanford football team won over the Santa Clara Broncs by a score of 6 to 0 here this afternoon. Outgeneraled and outplayed in the first half, Stanford played inspired football in the last period and after three attempts plunged way to a belated victory.

A beautifully executed delayed buck by Phil Mof-fatt, star Cardinal half back, took the ball to Santa Clara's four-yard line. On the next play Captain Harry Hillman carried it over for a touchdown. George Grey's kick failed. The lone touchdown little told the story of Stanford's supremacy In the second half, as it also failed to reveal Santa Clara's superiority in the first half. The Indians made 16 first downs to four for Santa Clara, practically all In the second half.

In the first half Santa Clara assumed the offensive and sevral times threatened the Stanford goal line. They attempted only one forward pass, and this was completed. Stanford in this period was content to kick and wait for the breaks. It was a different Stanford team that Warner sent on the field for the second half. The line and backfield bolstered by first team varsity men.

Stanford began a determined rush to the Broncs' goal, but the Bronc line stiffened and it was not until the third threat that Stanford was able to score. Last week the Cardinals were held to a scoreless tie by the San Francisco Olympic club. HOLLAND WITHDRAWS. Amsterdam, Oct. 3.

P) Three dazzling runs and a neat forwatd pass gave the University of Washington a 25-to-0 victory over the University of Montana in the opening Pacific Coast confer- ence football game cf the season for the two teams in this stadium today. Four different Husky elevens battered the determined Grizzly combination back against its goal line time and time again and wound up by counting one touchdown in each period. Coach Jimmy of Washington started a second string lineup against Montana and Clarence Bledsoe, veteran halfback, slipped around left end late in the first period to reach the Grizzly goal from its 34-yard line. Regulars in Fray. With the regulars jumping into the fracas late in the second quarter, Merle Hufford, streaked through the whole Montana lineup from the 50-yard line to add another touchdown.

It was the first time Hufford handled the ball. He played OakesSays Team Improvement Was Shown at Seattle "The Montana team played an improved fame, both in running with the ball and kicking," said a message received by The Mis-soulian Saturday evening from Coach B. F. Oakes of the Grizzlies. "Crowley called signals in good fashion at quarterback.

The tackling was weak, or the score would have been 12 to 0. The ends, the tackles, and Meeker and Dailey in the backfield played well, while the team as a whole showed better. Ryan was the only casualty of the game." only about five minutes, Phelan putting him on the bench again when he was tackled extra hard as the half ended. A forward pass gave the Huskies their score at the start of the second half, Pederson tossing 15 yards to Wolcott, who scampered across the pay line. In the final period Fay Franklin, diminutive sophomore halfback, weaved 65 yards through the eleven Grizzlies to plant the ball behind the Montana goal.

Franklin was knocked down, twice on his long flight but managed to stumble over. The only try-for-point completed was converted by Pederson after the third touchdown. All were attempted from placement. Montana Drives. Montana made two great drives, the first late in the opening period and early in the second quarter and the other In the final minutes of play.

On both occasions the Grizzlies rammed and passed their way to the Washington eight-yard line, but not an inch farther. Recovering a Husky fumble and blocking a punt aided the Montanans in their first drive and another Washington fumble and penalty and a couple of completed passes sent them into purple and gold regions the second time. Montana lost the bali on downs on both attacks. Washington outclassed the Grizzlies in every department of play, making 14 first downs to Montana's four, and piling up a total of 510 yards gained compared with 136 for Montana.

(U.R) St. Mary's football team defeated California, 14 to 0, before 70,000 spectators here today. The closest California ever got to a touchdown was when they reached St. Mary's 23-yard line in the last quarter. The game was only eight minutes old when Hero Fletcher made a quarterback sneak from the one-yard line for a touchdown, and added the extra point with a place kick.

Although this lead was perfectly safe, the Saints drove 75 yards down the field with only eight plays in the third quarter and George Can-rinus caught a pass from Charley Baird across the goal line for the second and final touchdown. Fletcher again converted. The Bears never threatened, unless their line bucks for first down on Saint Mary's 23-yard line late in the game might be counted as such. After getting that far they seemed to lose all their strength, and they could not make the Saint Mary's line budge on four plays. The Gaels, who won the title of "Red Devils" by their flaming red uniforms, and their flashy victory over the University of Southern California last Saturday ran up a total of nine first downs against two for California.

One of California's first downs was in the second quarter when Gill passed to Mc-Cutcheon for 10 yards.

3. (Northwestern turned loose Just enoughf of its heralded offensive power in the first period today to crush Nebraska's brawny Cornhuskers, 19 to 7, in the inaugural game of the Wildcats' season. Northwestern ripped into Nebraska with savage fury and before the Cornhuskers could regain their poise, three touchdowns had been rushed over. Nebraska rallied and held the Wildcats almost on even terms the rest of the way, but that opening blast left them numb and bewildered. The heavyweight Nebraska line was torn apart and before replacement could be rushed into action, the damage had been done and Northwestern settled back to an experimental game.

Ernest (Pug) Rentner, North-western's right halfback, was the wedge that split Nebraska apart. He was supported ably by Ken Meenan, a big sophomore, and a fast charging Wildcat line. Northwestern received the kick-off and four slashes Into the Husk-er line by Rentner and Meenan carried the ball 40 yards to Nebraska's 35-yard line. Then a triple pass from Quarterback George Potter to Meenan to Rentner, snarled the Cornhuskers up and Rentner raced over for the first score. Potter placekicked the goal.

Nebraska elected to kick off and Northwestern had the ball on its own 35-yard line. Reb Russell, the Wildcats' battering ram, was stopped cold on two plays. Rentner took the ball, slipped out of the grasp of two Cornhuskers, and trotted over to finish a 65-yard jaunt. Potter failed to placekick for the extra point. Play hardly was under way again before the third Northwestern touchdown was shoved over.

The Huskers received the klckoff and tried to catch Northwestern by surprise with a pass. Meenan swooped In, grabbed Sauer's short toss over center and hustled 28 yards over the goal line. Potter again failed to placekick for the other point. In the second period, the Wildcats started another advance but it was wrecked when Meenan fumbled and Corwln Hulbert recovered on Nebraska's 26-yard line. Sauer sailed a pass to Norris Nesmith, his left end.

Tine Husker end struggled to Northwestern's four-yard line before Rentner dragged him down. Three shots at the line gained two yards and on the fourth down, Sauer tossed a pass to Hubert Boswell over the Wildcat goal line. Masterson added the extra poi.t. The Wildcats made 12 first downs to four for Nebraska and out gained their opposition from scrimmage, 183 yards to 63. Northwestern tried and even dozen forward passes, completed four and had two intercepted.

Nebraska took the air 11 times and completed three attempts while having four fall into the hands of Norhwestern players. The contest attracted about 40.000 spectators. rRINCETON VICTORIOUS. Palmer Stadium, Princeton. N.

Coach Phelan sprang a surprise on the Grizzlies when he sent his full second team onto the field to start the game. The Huskies scored late in the period when Bledsoe broke away around left end and reached the Montana goal from the Grizzlies' 35-yard line. Marlowe's try for the extra point failed from placement.

Score: Montana, Washington, 12.

Third Period. Forward passes gave the Huskies there third touchdown in the third period. The quarter opened with Washington recovering a Montana fumble on the Grizzlies' 30-yard line.
