Quiet Jim Thomason, little pub- Hcized but perhaps the finest blocker and line backer in Southwest conference history, shocked tri6 Christians to helplessness with runs and scored twice himself. To Big Jim and Marion Pugh, one of the ranking passers, the Aggies owed thanks for their offensive splurge that drowned T. C. but the big red of seniors threw back the Christians with a gain of only 17 yards on rushing plays. Never, after a wobbly opening, did the Aggies look back.

On the first play of the period they started rolling before the throng of 22,000. Seven minutes later they had shelled the Christians with three touchdowns and added the points.

Pacific coast newspapers coming to my desk gave space to the acquisition by Oceanside (Cal.) high football squad of services, even publishing the detail that rival schools had reported the case to Commissioner Atherton of the Pacific conference, with a rcque.st that he conduct an investigation, thus to determine the identity of the western college which, as time marches oh. apparently is destined to inherit the Sutton athletic services.

The Bruins lo.st the game in the fourth quarter when Henry Zacharias, third string left halfback, kicked a field goal and added three points to the California score. Standing on the Bruin 23-yard line, late in the fourth period as the shadows closed in, Zacharias coolly measured the distance between victory and defeat and expertly booted the ball between the goal posts to put California suddenly in the lead after the Bruins had out-played them for all but a few minutes of the game.
