They started strong and they finished savagely. They played football as the cash customers like It hard from start to finish. ONLY TWO SIRS Some of the experts opined that if St. Mary's was beaten it wouiq be for lack cf reserve To the credit of the condition of the St. Mary's boys, be it, said that only two supetltuttons were necessary.

Stanford made frequent changes, but no matter who played for Stanford, there was no change. St. Mary's was the dominant team from the opening kickorT. Slip Madlgan's boys broke up the famed reverse plays of Stanford by fast charging; they killed the passing game by fierce rushes; on time Hicks broke through and nearly took the ball out of Biff Hoffman's hand as that big man tried to find a man to throw It to; they blocked a kirk, but standing out like a lighthouse In a fog was the de- (Contlnued on Page 2, Column 7) r-v Vt'tti KK 'r-- -J -J jy rx i IT EW YEAR'S!

Given a break at the start of the game which finally placed them within mere feet of a totichdown. the Santa Clara athletes misled the score and then wilted away be LLOYCX fore the relent- less hammering of the Trojan horde. The result was astonishing te say the least, for Bronco supporters had wagered rather heavily on a 21 -point margin. Losing to California by a 14-to-6 score only last Saturday, the Santa Clara boys were doped on all sides to give U.S.C. a rousing battle, but as It turned out the workout wasn't even as tough as the opening game with Occidental.

Coach Howard Jones's athletes rolled up eight touchdowns and got two conversions for their grand total of 52 points. Santa Clara's scores came on passes, one in the third quarter and the last one just before the game ended. 'Last year'a count was 42 to up by a veteran Trojan veam. CHEER FOR THOMAS Capt. Morley Drury, the dashing, dynamic leader of the Trojans, shared honors with a host of other chaps, among whom the most conspicuous Was Lloyd Thomas, the quiet-mannered halfback who raced 69 yards to return a kick-off lor a touchdown.

This brilliant run brought the assembled multitude of 35,000 fans to their feet with a roar as Thomas eluded the entire visiting team and whirled and battled his way the length of the field. It was the first time a Trojan athlete has ever returned a Sollseum kick-off for a touchdown, and the second made by an lntercollagtate player in the big bowl. Bert LaBucherie of U.CJLA. turned the trick against Pomona last year. The Trojan line showed remarkable Improvement over last week, which Isn't so surprising considering the amount of tune and effort Jones has spent with his men since the Occidental encounter.

But trouble- was quickly averted and the rirates swept on to victory In a game that was saved by the relief hurling of Mil after two Pirate aces, Kremer and IH1I, had been knocked out of the box, and decided by Traynor's single In the sixth Inning with the bases full and two out, a blow that brought over what proved to be the deciding tally.
