5. Striking with 1 fornia's Golden Bears rolled to their eighth straight victory of the season and their fifteenth consecutive conference success since 1947 by defeating Washington State, 33 to 14, here today. But there was little hilarity in the nearby fraternity houses this evening and it wasn't wholly because of the university's recent "No liquor" edict either. The campus was cheerless because it could see trouble ahead. The word from the Southland had been of a disquieting nature and those who dared talk of the Rose Bowl did so only In whispers.

There was a chance now, and a mighty big one, that the Bears wouldn't be going to Pasadena, after all. Certainly, the day's events could not be construed as putting the Bears any nearer their destination than they had been before. It VV i While Pappy Waldorf's men had done a reasonably satisfactory job in beating Washington State, it was apparent, even from distance, that Stanford had done a much better one in trouncing- USC. Stanford Now In Driver's Seat Indeed, Stanford's S4-13 triumph over the Trojans had some of the old Blues wondering if Cal hadn't actually lost ground in the Rose Bowl race while winning today's fracas. The big game of November 19 had taken on an all-decisive importance which Cal had hoped to avoid.

Besides, the Bears had still to meet Oregon, while Stanford had only to meet little Idaho. There could be no doubt about it Stanford, although twice beaten SI: HANSON 1 HANSON and once tied, was in the driver's seat tonight. The Bears, moreover, had encountered more difficulty this afternoon than they had bargained for. Twenty-nine point favorites in the betting, they won by seventeen and, but for a cruel fumble which cut Washington State down on Cal's two-yard line, the Issue might have been even closer than that. Washington State, producing two of the best backs to operate in this stadium all season, gave a surprisingly good account of itself and as late as the fourth quarter it was still very much in the ball game, the count at that time being only 20 to 14 in Cal's favor.

uui -ye f4 1 LAc, -tl Only in the closing stages did the Bears manage to pull comfortably ahead and even then they couldn't keep the Cougars from clawing the speed of light and then battling like Comanches to protect their brilliantly earned gains from Trojan fury, an mnazing Stanford Redskin eleven today buried the University of Southern California under an avalanche of touchdowns, 34-13. Overcoming intense heat, superior weight and a tremendous span of eligible manpower, the Red kids from the Farm almost completely dominated play for one half. Then luck turned against them In the third quarter and they had to make four tremendous goal line stands to hold on to a precious 20-7 margin. Finally the rampaging Reds got control again, just when their partisans believed they were wilting, and they finished their happiest afternoon since 1940 by scoring another pair of touchdowns. This was the biggest victory ever scored by Stanford over USC.

The previous high was 21-7, made in 1940 by Frankie Albert and the Wow Boys. Today's stunning defeat knocked the powerhouse Trojans right out of the Rose Bowl parade and it put Stanford into a position where it challenges California for the right to battle in Pasadena. The dazzling, complete victory by a team that was slated to lose by eight points or. actually, two touchdowns, now makes the California-Stanford game two weeks hence the tiff that tells who shall defend for the Pacific Coast against the mightiest of the Big Ten. The Indians, as overjoyed as a flock of youngsters who average barely 20 years can be, definitely believe they're the team of destiny.

It's All Roses from Now On Field. Their attitude is described by little Davey Field, 150 pounds of defensive dynamite, who played brilliantly despite a back that was aching like seven decayed molars. "From now on it's all roses," little Davey, the giant killer, chortled as he unswathed his aching back in the dressing rooms. "We're gonna go." The small Oklahoman played on guts, even if that is a horrible word. And that's the way the Redskins all played against superior odds.

The long unheralded defensive eleven wrapped itself in a cloak of glory by staging four goal line stands that will be talked about when these kids are greybeards with grandchildren. They rose up to repel the Trojan horde just when the anticipated was beginning to materialize. Always the Trojans, by their Fiiperior weight and manpower, have rolled over the opposition in the second half. And they would have today if these Redskin worthies had not been maniacally determined they should not drive. These are the men that students of football, and the harassed and belittled Trojans, will remember for years to come: Jack Rye, Al Laakso, Hal Walker, Jesse Cone, Russ Pomeroy, Bill McColl, Bruce Van Alstyne up in front; Kenny Peck, Bob White, Davey Field and Bill DeYoung back deep where the leather bullets were falling; and Jim Castagnoll, Cordy Rice, Dick Abraham and that same Russ Pomeroy up there in the line backing spots where the Trojan crunchers could be felt as well as heard and seen.

Four times they stanched the flow of Trojan power. They did it first on the six yard line when Peck tipped a fourth down pass away from Harold Hatfield in the end zone. They did it a few minutes later on the Trojan 26 when Cone rushed poor Jim Powers out of his prettiest passing stance. Tivicc 'More They Stop the Trojans. And in the fourth quarter, with the tide of power and passes still flowing against them, Bill DeYoung, Gordy Rice, Jesse Cone, Kenny Peck and Gordy White stopped the Trojan horse on the Indian 3.

And it was Hal Walker who personally halted the Trojan horde on the Indian 4 a few seconds previously. They were gallant, these usually unsung youngsters who race onto the turf only when the Indians have been compelled to give up the ball. If they had not been, all of the speed of Bill DeYoung and Bobby White and the precious passing of Gary Kerkorian to Kenny Rose and big Bill McColl would not have prevailed. It was hot, the Indians agreed. But like they said they'd do yesterday, they cooled off the high powered Trojans.

The result cannot be called an upset because the Indians were conceded a chance. But not even their stanchest supporters and there were 4,000 of them in the rooting section alone believed they'd roll out five touchdowns against old SC. But it is true. The statistics prove everything but the valiant spirit of those defensive fellows. Stanford netted 301 yards aground to Troy's 68.

It was different in the passing game, but that was expected. The Trojans, muffled on the ground, had to throw to get any at 'em. At the end it was Washington. State that was forcing the fight. The Cougars were a lot better than they have been cracked up to be.

Not much had been said of Marv Cross before the game. He proved to be a tremendous smashing fullback. Only mention of right halfback Don Paul had been that he was pretty fair at catching passes. Well, he was that. He was pretty fair at catching passes.

But he also proved a swell all-around back. Celeri, as Usual, Cal's Sparkplug California had no one more useful than Paul unless it was Bob Celeri, the All-America Quarterback candidate, who was, as usual, the sparkplug of the Bear attack.
