The unsuccessful last quarter threat came after a great drive directed by Maples, -two passes, Maple to Robbins and Maple to Striff, carried 46 yards from Aggie territory to the Card twenty-yard line. Maple's next pass was knocked down by Lewis, but Montgomery picked the ball out of the air before it hit the ground and rambled on for nine yards. A three-yard plunge by Maple produced a first down at the eight-yard line. Maple bucked for three more, then tossed the perfect pass over the line, which' Rohblns dropped.

From the standpoint of the Bears, the net result of yesterday's game was to preserve a straight string of five victories for the season with but six points scored against them this in the opening game with Santa Clara and to save all the powerful first string, fresh and unhurt, for operations against the Trojans of U.

The greatest crowd that ever witnessed a game here and the greatest in the history of the State, including the president of the two State universities and the governors of Ohio and Michigan, cheered' and groaned from the boxes and son ever has experienced in time-honored pigskin Iray with the Indian of the North.

SS to 0. The first half which ended in an i 8 to 0 deadlock, seemed to justify the opinion of observers that the Gaels simply did not h.we the offensive power to score. Time after time the ball would fall into Mary's hands in Nevada territory, only to have the Wolves break through to smear the Gael plays behind the line of scrimmage. Gaining confidence with their uccess, the Wolfpack led by Bailey and Stockton made a determined effort to score at the beginning of the second quarter. Taking the ball on St.

Mary's 40-yard line, with the aid of a 20-yard pass four line plunges, the ball was carried to the Gael 14-yard mark. Held for three The Club took the ball on Its own 34-yard line, where the Bears lost prowess, wa the smash and oower of an eleven that has "arrived" to complete the promise shown in early seacon triumphs and thrill Dartmouth hearts with the realization that the regime of Jess Hawley has produced another team fit to atand with the aggregation of two years aqo, MARSTERS STARS. Behind perfect Interference the atand jammed to capacity. It was the formal opening of the new stadium and the fifth time Michigan has helped to dedicate a football bowl without defeat. THREE TIMES.

Three times during the game, a pass, Oosterbaan to Gilbert placed the ball across Ohio's goal line. Three times Gilbert's toe lifted the ball across the bars for the extra points, and three times the Wol it on downs, and launched a passing game at end, and Jim Cock-burn, who made a name for himself at fullback. But their hurts are not expected to prove seriou. Bancroft tustainad a pulled muiel in hi leg, and Cockburn limped from the field with what appeared to be a rather inconvenient charlie-hori. In transacting Its business, "Nibs" 1'rice's 'speed" backfield lived up to Its name.

The first touchdown came as a result of a 21 -yard mack through left guard, which developed into more in a see-saw struggle after they had passed attaeK, one oepnrtment In which the Winged-O squad looked first class and kicked thbir way into tho lead twice during the first half. The Tig CapL Moeter. youthful Marsters, playing his first verine's powerful line and alert secondary defense turned back the "big game for the Green, ripped the Harvard line to streamers with yesterday. Kaer got off a long heave well down beyound mid-field. It might have been good If a little longer, as there were one or two Olympians scattered about to receive.

Each time Gilbert's sure even and one half minutes after the opening gun. "Biff mised the kick for point. On the kiekoff that followed thii Howard Maple, who could play on most anybody's team, gave the Cards a scare, runing the kick back some 41 yards to midfleld, and coming perilously close to breaking into the clear.

LEWIS INTERCEPTS. But, after Maple'e thrut, the Aggie couldn't gain. The teama exchanged puhtt. Maple opened a patting attack, and "Spud" Lewi, Stanforda quarter ended it by interceoting the O. A.

C. leader's firtt throw and running it back 17 yards to the Card 49-yard line. And the- rugged little Wilton shot through immediately, off his favorite right tackle, and cutting in cleanly, for 21 yards on a brilliant zig-zag run. Hill followed with four yards which the Reds lost at once on an offside penalty, just as the first period ended. Stanford's first forward pats of the afternoon, a short throw from Hoffman to Preaton, opened the second period, gained 14 yard and left the Rod 13 yard short of a touchdown.

Hill accounted for the 13 all in one jump, with the double reveree, ineide right end, and he ran away from the Aggie aecondary for the touchdown. Thia time Hoffman collected the ex tra point. That ended first half festivities. Beginning the second half with Hyland and Sims as halfbacks, the Cards couldn't develop their first half consistency, and toward the end of the third period the Aggies registered their first threat, after and Scott caught Maple's throw for a touchdown. That ended it.

Frentrup, replacing Wilton, ran the following kick-off back 33 yards to midfleld, and looked mighty pretty doing it, as the gun ended the game. The Aggie touchdown was mada agaimit a combination of first and second string Cardinals. The Reds without question, played their first real football of the present tea-son. For the firtt time linemen and baeka alike were "getting their men" in the complicated Warner reveree playa, they were keeping out of the runner's way while doing their work. Simt, Hill and Wilton were especially effective in off tackle drive cutting in, all, with great effectivenees.

HOFFMAN STRONG, Big "Biff was strong today. He was never once held In a pinch, und his ability to drive through on tho spins and delayed bucks made then entire attack function as it can never function when the fullback isn't hitting. Biffs kicking and passing also were good. Hofftr.an was hitting, diving and pushing through the lino today. Hyland, with a bad leg, couldn't get away.

The Stanford guards, Post and Robesky, did their work well, both on offense and defense. Preston, left end, was much improved. In one department the Cards foot booted the ball far down the field and out of danger. FLEET EBY. The fleet Eby of Ohio gave the Michigan rocters a genuine scare a nrst down.

MeKEE PASSES. And following an equally balanced gain and loss by Brewster and MeKee, re (pectively, MeKee fell back and patted for a gain of 19 yard to Watkin. The pa was fat and low and right to the mark. Thii gave the Club a first down on the Bear 12-yard line, and the Berkeley fans be gan to show signs of con (tarnation. Their fears were increased when Bogue smashed through the line In the first part of the final period when, returning to the game after an injury, he broke loose for long gains, accepting passes and A tributing largely to the attT.k hausted in the final period.

In all, the alim 19-year-old youth gained 195 of the 362 yard Dartmouth ground out through and around the line. He tossed on of the three forward paasea the Green completed in. 11 tries. LANE SCINTILLATE. And as Marsters slipped through the Crimson defense with the calm assurance of a veteran hand, so did'Myles Lane pick up the burden when close to the Harvard goal for the final punishing yards that piled up the scores.

In the open field. Lane several times whirled around the ends for ten to 15 yard gains, while Marsters thrice sprinted just over 30 yards and ten times ripped off eight to If yards in a single burst. Score by periods: ers, packing the greater punch and exhibiting a more alert defense, took the lead near the close of the second period and held it to tha end. Cornell provided the most spectacular setting of its gridiron history for the renewal of relations with old Nacsau, but a curly haired etocky young Tiger, Ed Wittmer of Pittsburgh, furniehed the fireworks on the playing field. DID EVERYTHING.

Wittmer, a around the endi, battering ram through the line and a ball hawk on the defense, scored only one of Princeton's three touchdowns but his line plunging, passing and receiving contributed largely to the advances which enabled Mike Miles and Phil Strubing to tally the others. Earl Baruch, skillful kicker and passer, gave Wittmer excellent support, but it was the latter who bore the brunt of the Tiger attack from start to finish. Cornell had three chances to make that small distance, but a center-buck failed, then the roving Wittmer batted down two successive paeees over the line by Balderston to turn back the Ithaean and give Princeton the battle on downs. This was the climax of Cornell's offensive efforts, which in the first half had produced a touchdown, on. two passes, and a field goal from the 16-yard line by John Anderson, stalwart tackle.

Throughout most of the last two periods, Princeton carried the fight into Cornell territory, settling the Issue with a spectacular 75-yard advance to score in the fourth period. Except for a 15-yard pass by Baruch to Moeser, most of this distance was gained by Wittmer, but Miles plunged the four yards that put the ball behind Cornell's goal line for a third touchdown. Scores by periods: Princeton 7 7 0 7 21 Cornell .1 7 3 0 019 which placed the ball on Michigan eight-yard line. Here Michigan knocked down paste to take the ball on downe. Again in the eame period the ball lay for three yards.

AGGIES' FIRST DOWN. Maple butted in for seven yarda at right tackle. Frosh, 22-13 field showed little less than nothing both on defense and offense, and it was with a determined countenance that Madigan led his men into the clubhouse at the end of the half. Ten minutes later the St.

Mary's squad trotted back on the field with "Slippery Slip" still looking most lincherub-like, and the rest of the Gaels resembling a thunder storm just about to break. MERRICK SCORES. Two minutes after the opening of the second half, Nevada, taking the ball on their own 20-yard line, attempted to make a yard or so Around left end, Franklan was i waiting and hit Bailey so hard he bounced, the ball bounding out of his arms upon the ground, Merrick picked it up and galloped, off to a touchdown, Pltchford converting. And with that score things began to happen. SCORES AGAIN.

Nevada kicked off to Pitchford who returned the ball -to his own 40-yard From that point on, JPitchford. Merrick and Bogan alternated in carrying the pigskin down the field to Nevada's 30-yard mark, where Merrick on an off tackle play, I raced to a touchdown behind perfect interference. Pltchford failed to convert, and St. Mary's led, 13 to 0. A few moments later on an exchange of punts, St.

Mary's took the ball on Nevada's 25-yard line. After two line plunges, which gained four yards, Pat Bogan, on a wide end run, loped 20 yards to a third touch- down. Tobin missed the- kick. Even three touchdowns seemed not to satisfy the Saints, and when Stockton, Nevada, fumbled on his own 40-yard line, Johnson considered it his duty to add another six points to the total, and after he had crossed the goal line, Tobin failed again to convert. It was noticed that Madigan had begun to relax about that time and even deigned to smile when Tobin missed the try for point.

RUNS 80 YARDS. To begin the fourth quarter, Mc-lntyre replaced Merrick at half, and not to be outdone by his Brother-i Gael, took the ball on his own 20-. yard line after Bradley had passed over the goal, and on the first play, burst through the tackle and the I entire Nevada backfield and ran 80 yards to a touchdown. Tobin's kick was blocked. The final Gael score came just forty-five eeconds later.

Bradley attempted to pas from his own 20-I yard mark, and Rooney gathered in the ball on Nevada's 30-yard line. I On the first play, Rooney made hie then aeven at right guard, to produce the Aggies' first touchdown at the Stanford 30-yard mark. this season. TWO INJURED. Don Hill, after his touchdown in the second quarter, left the game with a twieted leg, as did Wilton in the fourth period.

Neither Injury is said to be serious, though both may be out for a few dav. on Michigan's three-yard line, but the Wolverines were in poeion and ready to kick when the game ended. Score by period! Ohio 0 0 0 00 Michigan 0 7 7 721 Bear Frosh Triumph Over Capital Eleven California's powerful freshmen eleven won an easy 21 to 0 victory over the Sacramento Junior College yesterday afternoon at the California Memorial Stadium. Joe Coffield, Frank Modalnca and Ralph Freeley were the outstanding performers for the freshmen. The Beare scored first on a long past by Coffield to Avery over the goal line in the firtt period.

In the second quarter the Beara hammered their way to the three-yard line, where Medainca drove acrota for a touchdown. Freeley made the third score In LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22. Coach Aubrey Devine eked out a little Cave Luby, Maple's running Brick Marcus. And the third, as has been related, was Eisen's 50-yard thriller through the broken field, Jim Cockburn converted all three of these scores, thus turning in a 100 per cent performance.

It was the wide-awake Cockburn, by the who paved the road to the Bears' first touchdown. This wat when he intercepted a pa by Kaer deep in Olympic Club territory, and brought -it to ret on the club 21 yard tin a the first quarter ended. WAS EVEN TILT. Both the Wlnged-O eleven and the Bear field army had been having it back and forth at about an even break up to this time, Lorn and Kaer kicking the ball to about equal advantage, and both teams gaining about at par. Cockburn' play, however, put the Club in a bad hole, and Lorn had thing pretty well hi own way to scramble the 21 yard to core.

Hi mates gave him great interference for the effort. Following Lom's score at the beginning of the second period, the Club stiffened for a while and several punt exchanges followed. It' was after the third exchange that Lee Eisen flashed down the lot from his own 4S-yard line, where he received, to put the oval on the Club 20-yard line, accompanied by a surge of whooping and cheering from the Bear rooting section and the publio at large. He was stopped momentarily several times en route, but each time turned on the power again before the referee's whistle could be blown, to add more yardage. COCKBURN'S EFFORT.

It was at this stage of the game that Cockburn showed his punch. He and Lorn and Marcus, had all made hort gains, and it was fourth down with two yards to go to the ten yard line for a first down. As he got the ball it seemed as if the whole Olympic Club team had sensed his play and was there to stop him. But the stocky Bear fullback just put his head down and let them have it. And made his downs.

It wa from thi point, after a couple of ineffectual line punches, that "Brick" Marcus stepped it off around the end to score. The fast stepping San Francisco sorrel top must Have liked this sample of Olympian dodging. For he was the whole show for the next few minutes. MARCUS AGAIN. Kutsch kicked off for the Club and Marcus received.

He took the ball on his own 30-yard line and galloped along for 29 yards, to the revenge on Husky Hunt for a 27 mate, made two yards, and was then thrown for a ten yard loss by a mooted question. Outside of Eisan's spectacular touchdown in the third quarter, the second half was rather uninteresting. The Winged-0 men were- unable penetrate into Bear territory beyond the 36-yard line, and the Hears, on their part, appeared to be content with playing safe in the middle of the field. Once Price's men got down to the Club 12-yard line on a fast thrust, but here lost the ball when Frost intercepted a pass from Clymer and Kaer punted out of danger. Puring the game "Nibs" Price made few substitutions, preferring to let his starting lineup go practically the whole stretch.

Except for those who started, Lee Rice, Harold Breckenridge, "Dutch Clymer and Charles Schmidt, backfielders, and "Togo" Thornton, and hie mate, Bob Norton, both end, were the only men to get in the game. to 0 defeat of last year when the Captain McCreery played his Preston and Post.
