NEWLAND MEMORIAL STADIUM (Berkeley, Cal.) Oct. 3. (P) Scarlet raiders from Moraga's Hills, St. Mary's swift striking Gaels, passed their way to a 14-to-0 victory today over California's Bears their second triumph in a week over a Coast Con eleven.

Passes that snapped bulletlike over the heads of California's secondary defense spelled defeat 9 for the Golden Bears just as they did for Southern California's Trojans a week ago today. In the first period, with the ball on California's 40-yard line, the Gaels completed two long passes, one for 19 yards and one for 25 yards, to put the ball within 2 yards of scoring turf. On the next play Herb Fletcher, quarterback, crashed over for a touchdown. He converted the try for point with a place-kick that glanced off one of the uprights and sailed through safely. DRIVE 76 YARDS Again in the third quarter, a lightning aerial attack accounted for another touchdown.

It followed a 76-yard drive down the field from St. Mary's own 24-yard line, where Fletcher had. Intercepted a California pass. Three passes were good for a total of 60 yards, while Charley Baird, halfback, accounted for another 10 yards, with a run through the line. On California's 5-yard line Baird passed to George Canri-nus, who caught the ball over California's goal line.

OREGON DEFEATS VANDALS Lillard Leads Web footer Attack to Conquer Idaho by 9-to-0 Score MULTNOMAH STADIUM (Port land, Or.) Oct.3.(JT) A fast bunch of University of Oregon sophomores, aided and abetted by a few of last year's veterans, scored a 9-to-0 vic tory over the University of Idaho football team here today. Idaho slightly outweighed the Webfoots but lacked their speed and stamina. Big Joe Lillard, the Negro star of the Oregon backfield, was the chap who brought the spectators to their feet in the last period with a thrilling touchdown alter he had fumbled a few minutes before just one foot from the Idaho goal line.

In the second period Oregon scored a safety when Spaugey, Vandal center, slipped a bad pas sto Berg, who recovered it over his goal line and who was promptly and definitely downed by three Oregonians. With less than ten! minutes to play In the last period Oregon worked the ball from Idaho's 33-yard line to the 2-foot line, mainly through the efforts of Lillard. The "Midnight Express" then took the ball with a terrific lunge, was stopped by Idaho on the 1-foot line, and as he tried to hurl himself over, fumbled. Idaho recovered and kicked. Working at terrific speed, the (Continued on Page 2, Column 6) 1 V.

Duncan and Kee-ble, on the 28-yard line, Clem Senn, Cougar reserve guard, rose up to stop two plays cold. A pass was grounded and Duncan kicked. Washington State came back strong with Sarboe throwing a 32-yard pass to Dahlen followed by two first down romps by Sarboe. On the 11-yard line three plays failed to gain and Sarboe's pass on the fourth was knocked down by Keeble just inside goal line, Dahlen once more started a drive in the fourth quarter when he sprinted around end for 34 yards but the Bruins held tight then and Washington State had to kick, as the end of the game drew near, U.C.L.A. once more unleashed an attack when Capt.

Duncan broke through center for 15 yards, only to be stopped by Dahlen, the last remaining Cougar tackier. Decker added 20 more in two plays, but the march was stopped when Dahlen intercepted a pass. Glen (Turk) Edwards, Cougar all-Amcr-ican tackier and action captain, showed his great ability time after time in the Cougar line power. Fletcher and Duncan were the mainstays of the visitors.

Washington State made fourteen first downs for six for U.C.L.A-. Washington State totalled 230 yards, compared with 82 for U.C.L.A. Sarboe's six punts averaged 43 yards. Dahlen carried ball for a 9-yard average per effort. Line-up and Summary: W.

A. Heln t.E. MoGue Camp L.T. McMillan (Continued on Page 2, Column 6) 1 cH i 1 .) BY PAUL LOWRY The behemoths of Oregon State were no match for the Trojans of Southern California on the green gridiron 01 Olympic Sta-y dium yesterday afternoon. The up a ecore of 30 to 0 against the weakest team the i ill aiw v- nortnwesiern m- stitution ha sent south in many years.

Approximately persons saw the game. The score might just as well have been HAL MOE 100 to 0. These was about that much difference between the teams. The statement does not make potential champions out of the Trojans. They succeeded yesterday more because of the opposition's im-potency than through their own ef-lorts.

ATTACK CLICKS True, Southern California's attack clicked with more precision against Oregon State than It did against St. Maiy's, as the Trojans rolled over a touchdown In each quarter and. kicked a field goal to boot. But the Oregonians lacked the fight and fire and fury of play on defense that saved the day for St. Mary's.

Big as it was, the Oregon line was pushed all over the place, nd Moe, a fine defensive halfback, had to make over half the tackles of the day on the secondary line. Oregon State started listlessly and finished the same way. The figures tell a good part of the story. Running plays: Southern California, 262 to 65. Forward passes: Southern California, sixty-eight to fifty-nine.

First downs: Southern California, seventeen to three. The game, the opening confer ence struggle of the season for both teams, was much more loosely played than the St. battle. The Trojans lost the ball twice on fumbles and Oregon State three times. Other bobbles were recov ered by members of the offending teams.

RUST FUMBLES It was a fumble by Rust soon after play opened that paved the way for the Trojans's first touch down. This happened on the visitors' 35-yard line, and the S.C. boys were over in ten plays with Shaver carrying the ball through center end kicking his own goal. The Oregon State boys began wilting under the rays of a hot sun about this time, and whenever opportunity afforded they stretched 1 on the turf with their tongues dragging. Toward the close of the first period the Trojans started a march from midfleld that netted a touchdown a few minutes after the second quarter opened.

Shaver also manufactured this score in ten plays, he and Mustek alternating in packing- the pill through center and over the I left side of the Staters' line. The bulky Mr. Bergerson, 225 pounds, i at guard, and Miller at tackle wre rudely shoved around by the Trojan boys. Shaver missed his second try at goal after making the score on a drive over tackle, but he atoned by kicking one in the next period after making his third touchdown. Shaved and Plnckert got together on a 19-yard pass that netted half the distance of the march to this score.

Later in the same period Ernie Smith committed the almost unheard of feat, for S.C. at least, of a field goal from the 25-yard line to make the scoie, 23 to 0. GRIFFITH RAMBLES The final score came from the Interception of a long pass by Griffith, who took Shaver's place at fullback, and returned the ball 51 yards before he was downed on the Oregon State 4-yard line. Mohler tock. the leather over on a spin through center two plays later, and Erskine, a sophomore tackle, kicked the goal.

Oregon State had its lone oooor-tunlty to score in the second quarter, when Cox recovered Mohler's fumble on the Trojan 13-yard line. This set the stage for the real comedy skit of the afternoon. Twice In a row Oregon State was penalized 5 yards per crack for backs in motion. The second time it happened some superheated Oregon athlete voiced his pen-tup feelings.

(Exclusive) Minnesota's vastly improved football team was on the alert at all times here this afternoon to take advantage of opposition misplays to hang up an impressive 20-to-0 victory over the Oklahoma Aggies on a wet and slippery gridiron before 15,000 spectators.

Immediately after the game, the Gophers left for Palo Alto, where next Saturday they play Stanford in its second intersectional game in two- weeks. The Gophers piled up 14 points in the first quarter on the Aggies today and added 6 more in the second period. Thereafter they only threatened once and then a fumble cost them a touchdown in the fourth quarter. The Aggies, while gaining consistently with the intricate Warner style of play, fumbled frequently to keep themselves in the hole most of the afternoon. The Minnesota offense looked some stronger today, but its blocking in the line and interference for the backs was still far below expectations.

The first quarter was only four minutes old when the Aggies lost the ball on downs after a bad pass from center as Trigg was about to kick, giving the Gophers first down on the visitors' 11-yard line. In two plays, Somen raced over for a touchdown, crashing the Aggies' left tackle both times. Mai ders kicked goal. Near the end of the quarter, Som-ers tossed a pass from the Oklahoma 40-yard line to W. Hass on the 15-yard line.

The latter dropped the ball, but it was called complete because of interference The Gophers were held for three downs and then Somers steppd back and (Continued on Page 4, Column 3) i 4 4 ,1 -1 il9 r-ii; STANFORD RALLIES TO WIN Harry Hillman Leads Quarter to Defeat of victory where it was left off the fighting Irish came through the final half in spectacular style to whip the strong Indiana i rsity eleven, 25 to 0, in the first game for Notre Dame since Rockne was killed in an airplane disaster.

If the electric personality of Rockne was missing, the wizard's spirit nevertheless carried on, and the players, many of them his own products, rallied after an uncertain start to uphold the best offensive traditions of the Notre Dame "system." THREE TEAMS Three full teams of these blue-jersled warriors in golden-hued silk pants trotted into action against, the State university. All three arrays succeeded in scoring at least one touchdown and the first-string team opened the way for two tallies, the first on a spectacular 70-yard dash by Joe Sheetetski of Bellaire, and the second on an 11-yard gallop by Marchmont Schwartz, all-American halfback and pride of Bay St.

Louis, Miss. Indiana, with a big powerful line and two sets of fast backs, held the Rockness-less Ramblers scoreless in the first period and yielded only one touchdown, on Sheeket-ski's brilliant run in the first half. For the time, it was troublesome going for the national champions, their blocking was not up tq par and their generalship seemed faulty. They took command of the game, however, upon the entrance a youthful quarterback, Emmett' Murphy of East Chicago, in second quarter, and steadily applied the scoring pressure for the rest of the game.

It was Pop's strongest combination that pushed Clipper Smith's men around in that last half, and finally turned the trick with a touchdown.

Coach Jimmy Phelan 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. With the regulars jumping into the fracas late in the second quarter, Merle Hufford streaked through the whole Montana line-up from the 50-yard line to add another touchdown. A forward pass gave the Huskies their third score at the start of the second half, Pederson tossing a 15-yard aerial to Wolcott, who scampered across the pay line. The most thrilling play of the contest came in the final period when 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. Washington outclassed the Grizzlies in every department of play, making fourteen first downs to Montana's four, and piling up a total of 510 yards gained compared with 136 for Montana. Washington tried ten passes and completed seven for a total of 155 yards, while Montana attempted six passes, completing two for 26 yards.

Late in the first quarter Dahlen started a Cougar offensive with a 23-yard run. Davis and Colburn took the ball on the 1-foot line as the quarter ended.

Sarboe grabbed a lateral from Davis and raced to the 2-yard line before stepping took the ball on downs on their own 2-yard line. At no time did the visitors display any consistent offense.
