The victory brightened Washington's hopes in its champion ship bid, arid in contrast shattered the Rose Bowl hopes of the loser.

Stanford was the pop ular preseason favorite to go all the way this year. Heinrich, 6-foot quarterback from Bremerton, set up the winning attack that saw the Huskies score a touchdown in the third period, then break a deadlock with two more scores in the final period. Stanford had tied the count In the third. Sharp Passing Washington's field general, the best seen around here this sea son, hit Right End Joe for a 30-yard touchdown pass in the third: period. He connected with Left Half Roland Kirkby for 36 yards late the third to Stanford's 4, then bucked the ball to the 1-yard line on two plays.

When they changed sides for the fourth quarter he squirmed to the 1-foot marker BY DICK HYLAXD Times Staff Representative ROSS-ADE STADIUM, Lafayette, Ini, Oct 28 The battling, belting Bruins of UCLA lifted the prestige of Pacific Coast football a notch or two here today as they defeated Purdue's Boilermakers, 20-6. Under a sunny sky on a late Indian summer day, 39,000 fans were kept on their feet or edge of their seati from the opening kickoff as thrill followed thrill. The Bruins tallied in each of the first' three periods and Purdue put 6 points on the board after the Uclans had established a 14-0 lead. The score' at half time was 14-6. Great Defense Great, even, at times, super-great defensive play and constant alertness when threatened won for the Bruins.

Four times they held the Purdues when the latter had but a yard to go to make first down. Three of these stands came in mid- field and the fourth gave the Bruins the ball on their own 22. While the scoring and running Bruins get their names in the statistics column, it was the Let 'Em Have It LAFAYETTE, Oct. 28 Possession is nine points of the law, but it doesn't necessarily win you football games. Purdue ran and passed the ball on 90 plays today while UCLA's Bruins had possession only '55 tnes, yet the Coasters were in command at virtually: every stage of the game.

Last week, Stanford had the ball .83 times to UCLA's 72; but that didn't bother the Bruins, either. defensive play of Donn Moo-maw, Joe Sabol, Breck Stro-Kchein, Luther Keyes, Bob Wilkinson and Cappy Smith who made today's victory possible. From the stands it appeared Purdue had the ball almost con stantly. Actually the Boilermakers did run off 90 plays to the Bruins' 55 as they marched again and again up the field only to be stopped before the goal could be reached by some extraordinary effort of a Bruin or Bruins. It Wasn't Dull It was not the dull type of defensive work.

Instead, Purdue's great sophomore. Dale Samuels, would wind up, throw a pass that appeared certain to be completed. Just as Neil Schmidt, Bernie Flowers or Phil Klezek reached for the ball, in would rush Sabol, Keyes. Marvin, Moomaw some Bruin, and take it to relieve the pressure. Or, quite often, especially when the Boilermakers were shooting for the precious 1 yard that would give them a first down.

Bob Wilkinson would, stand off fit flock 'of interference and Moo-raaw would crash through to belt the ball carrier back for no gain. The Bruins Intercepted five of bamueis throws. The Boiler makers punted but three times during the entire game. Four times they the ball on downs.

Denied admittance to the win ner's circle since November of last year, Jeff Cravath's lads finally made the grade, 30-21, at the expense of Oregon before 27,008 Coliseum patrons. Thus the longest drought in Trojan football. history is over, but It is doubtful if Jeff and his aides slept peacefully last night as they contemplated the rocky road ahSad a road which is barred by Stanford, Washington, UCLA and Notre Dame. Scored Early Oregon fought gamely, just as Jim Aiken had promised yester day morning. But when the visi tors lost their ace passer, Earl Stelle.

near the end of the first half, they lost all chance of vic tory. It is not stretching things at all to say that with Stelle well for 60 the result might have been different. For the first time this year the Trojans got an opening quarter touchdown and for the first time they led at the half, 13-7. The addition of 17 points the third stanza made it 30-7 be fore Cravath cleared the bench. Oregon scored twice in th final period, the closing touch down coming as time ran out.

Yesterday's, win, although, scored at the expense of a bedraggled Duck, was a tasty dish for victory-starved Cravath, It gave Jeff a record of 16 consecutive triumphs over teams from the great Northwest in games played locally.

Their near goal line stands were somewhat reminiscent of more powerful Gopher teams of past years. It was the most consistent display of teamwork Gophers have staged this year. It wasn't until late in the third quarter that Michigan was able to send Fullback Don Dufek over from the 1-yard line after passes had worked the ball downfield. It was the Wolverines', third drive of the quarter. That added fuel to.

the Gophers' burning irritation. They battled Michigan to a standstill in the early minutes of the fourth quarter. Playing in Michigan territory, the Gophers had one drive fizzle out before they could uncork a pass, Fullback George Hudak to Darrel (Shorty) Cochran, for their; touchdown.

28 Michigan State's spitfire Spartans outlasted roaringly reluctant Notre Dame, 36-33, today to hand the Irish a second straight defeat the first time that's happened under Coach Frank Leahy. The fighting Irish thus were assured of their most dismal season since the 6-3 record of Elmer Layden's 1934 team. Previously this season Notre Dame lost to Purdue, and last week to Indiana, 20-7. The Irish fought bitterly to avoid something that never happened to Coach Leahy since he took over in 1941 and hadn't occurred to the Irish since Ed McKeever's 1944 wartime club bowed successively to powerful Navy and Army.
