Webfoot Threat Averted As French Intercepts Pass In this quarter also Oregon advanced to Willamette's two yard line, but Flock, Bearcat tackle, broke up two plays, forcing Oregon back five yards, and French intercepted a pass, carrying the ball back to Willamette's 35 yard line. Oregon returned the compliment, and bad the ball on the 15 yard line again, when Faber picked up a tumble and ran 60 Most of the time Willamette had more reserves in the game than Oregon had. And we're Just as sure that Oregon needed Its regulars to win. as we are that they were in there.

Wo had the unexpected pleasure of seeing Oregon's new innocuous green cap parade. After the boys of '83 had knelt down and donned the badge of Ignorance, they Just inarched away unmolested, and a great groan went up from the crowd of apperclassmen across the way. And that after a swell address from Dean Straub about high ideals. But wo can understand the groan. It arose from the Inngs of several thousand men who saw these fellows escaping the ordeal they themselves had gone through so there'll be a diminishing groan next year and the next, and then it'll all be taken as a matter of course.

Sorry we couldn't be two places, but we I tad to miss Salem high's game with the Rooks. We heard Hollie Hunt-ington's boys put up a game battle and showed lots of promise, in spite of the score. We know now where Schissler's reserves come from. We won't venture to predict yet what Oregon State and Oregon will do to each other, and when we do, it will be Just a guess, because all dope is thrown to the winds when those schools meet on the- gridiron. But We'll say this: Oregon State has the stronger squad right now, because it has more reserves who are capable of fill-ingT the regulars' places.

PORTLAND, Oct. 12. (AP) Larry Wolfe's Oregon Normal eleven came to Portland today to defeat the Chico State teachers of California 12 to 0 on Multnomah stadium field. Johnny Phillips, Normal fullback, was the scoring star of the game and worked two deceptive sneak plays through center for both touchdowns. The first 6core came In the opening period when Oregon Normal drove to the Chico 17 yard line.

Phillips closed in with his quarterback behind the line, took the ball direct from center and crashed through for a touchdown. He failed to convert. Chico battled on even terms with the Monmouth eleven until the third period when the sneak play again, got Phillips across. Chica displayed a strong offensive but failed time after time when in scoring territory. In three games this season not a point has been scored against Oregon normal.

Read the Classified Ads. OREGON II WHIPS EUGENE, Oct. 12. Eugene high school promises to be a real contender in football this year after a couple of poor seasons. It showed a world of offensive strength when it walked on the Redmond high eleven here a week ago, but Its defensive capabilities were not tested out, as Redmond tried few plays, punting on first or second down every time it got the ball.

"Assistant" Coaches Huntington and Manerud have the team further advanced in offensive play than it has ever before been at this time of year. Green and Near are the outstanding threats. Eugene high's strength will bo tested more effectively next Saturday when it plays the Fishermen at Astoria. We don't essay to be a real prophet in this realm of sport. We just make a guess based on what information we have.

There Is one perfectly safe system which is worked by an eastern paper. This paper is able to do it, because it is a big concern' and is able to employ two sport experts. When a big event like the world series comes along, one of these high priced boys picks one team, the other picks the other, and then when it's all over, the paper proudly announces that it had the straight dope from the beginning. Nevertheless wo scored perfect on four pa esses Batarday, which brings oar guessing average up to IS right and eight wrong." The big kick in the Oregon-Willamette game at Eugene Saturday was seeing Ferguson run through the entire Oregon team, returning a kickoff. He was off for a touchdown, but somebody overtook him.

Spec's famous wedge worked perfectly that time. We got another hig boot when another married man, ran toward the right and was blocked off for a pros pective seven or eight yard loss; then cat back, clear around the Oregon team, and ran about 23 yank forward for a 15 yard gain. Several times there were three of the five married men lining up In the backfield, but we don't recall that four of them ever were, unless Cranor, Erickson, Lang and Ferguson were all in there at once In the last quarter. Too bad, wa didn't notice. Deets was in for a while, but that was while Lang was out.

Anyway those four men, along with French, did most of Willamette's ball carrying. All of them made some nice gains. The benedict guards, Ruch and Gill, also gained the limelight. Rnch was captain tor the day. fit was a great day for the family men.

Yes, McEwan kept all his regulars oat of the game ex. cepthtg Erdley, Colbert, Shields, fMadelnaaa, Little, Christeasen, Archer, Kitzmiller, Bobiasoa, Masoa and Moelier. ES Staters Win 32 to High School Boys Make Good Showing Anyway "Plenty good" was the opinion of Salem football fans Saturday afternoon as they watched the Salem high school team in the game with the O. 8. C.

freshmen. Although the high school team came out on the short end of the 32-C score, the showing they made against their much heavier opponents was good. The feature of the game was Salem's steady march down the field during the second quarter. Coffey returned the kickoff to the Salem 47-yard line. By straight line bucks, the Salem team marched down to the three-yard line, and Bob Kelly carried the ball over for the score.

The line-buck to make the extra point failed. Powerful Drive Conies as Surprise This brilliant offensive came as a surprise. Although the high school players had shown considerable spirit and fight in the first quarter, the State freshmen had things practically their own way, and had made their second touchdown shortly after the beginning of the second quarter. The terrific pace which had made the Salem touchdown had tired the locals, and in the second half the Salem game was largely defensive. However, on receiving the kickoff.

they made a first down by scrimmage. Then a punt by Hug gave the ball to the frosh on their 28-yard line. Two runs gave them 30 yards, but a Salem rally held the frosh for downs and gave the ball to Salem. The Staters soon had the ball again, and made their third touchdown. Their fourth touchdown was made just before the close of the third period.

(ime Listless After Fifth Touchdown Made Two successive kickoffs at the opening of the last quarter rolled out of bounds and gave the ball to Salem on the 40-yard line. The Staters soon got the ball again and made their fifth score on straight line bucks. After this the game was rather listless, but closed with two beautiful passes by the freshmen. Time was called only once because of injury to a player, and no penalties were given throughout the game. Persona accompanying the state college players admitted that their team was really the first string, rather than the second or third string which was advertised.

The ball seesawed in Willam ette territory until nearly the end of the perlodVwhich was scoreless; but just before the teams changed ends, Johnny Kitzmiller, the "Flying Dutchman," went In, took a lateral pass and dashed to the four yard line. Browne carried the ball over on the second play of the final quarter. Kitzmiller dominated the scene from then on until another touch down was scored. He ran a punt back to midfield.

then from the 35 yard line ran to ihe eight yard line on another lateral pass play. He- was stopped on the next play but got up and staggered over the goal line for the final touchdown. Long Pass Brings Ball Near Willamette Goal Still deep in its own territory, Willamette made good yardage in the- last quarter, but another break and a lonjr pass gave Oregon the ball on Willamette's four yard line with a minute left to play. The Bearcats held for two downs and the game was over. The feature play of the entire game was a kickoff return in the second quarter by Ferguson, who dashed through the entire Oregon team and was away for a touchdown, but was overtaken by an Oregon man on Oregon's 30 yard line.

Outstanding defensive work on Willamette's part was done by Carpenter, Lang, Cardinal, Flock, Jones, Ruch and Bashor. French, Lang and Erickson scintillated at times on offense. Starting lineups: Willamette Cardinal LE. Carpenter LT. Oregon Fletcher Hall Lillie Stadelman West Ruch Ackerman.

PUT TO ROUT Jhundering Herd Gallops to One-Sided Victory in I Conference Tilt Br FRANK G. GORRIE Associated Press Sports Writer WASHINGTON Stadium, Seattle, Oct.

12 (AP) The thundering herd of Southern California was a chain of lightning in northern Washington today, and with a mighty roar blasted the Pacific Coast conference championship chance of the University of Washington. The powerful Tro-- Jan trounced the Huskies 48 to 0. After the first 12 minutes of the game with their 'iacks against their own goal Iposts, the southern California warriors, led by their dynamic Rnssell Saunders, I burst into a mighty battering ram. The thunderinjr herd stamped up and dtfffn tlrerfield, scoring touchdowns virtually at will. Four were gathered in quick succession in the second period, two more were added in the third quarter and another was counted just as the final gun sounded.

Huskies Catch Team From South Off Guard The Washington Huskies pounced onto the gridiron primed to the minute. They caught the Trojans by surprise and worked the ball into U. S. C. territory before the game was five minutes old.

Failing to gain more than a yard, Saunders punted from hi3 22 yard line. The kick was practically blocked and Johnny Stom-baugh, halfback, caught the ball on the Trojan 34 yard line. Coach Enoch Eagshaw saw a chance to score and sent in his spectacular half back, Merle Huf-tord to replace Pulver. After three Husky line smashes which gained seven yard? Hufford took the ball and raced around right end to reach the V. S.

Trojans Begin to Tear Through Washington Line Jesse Hill followed with another touchdown a few minutes later and Duf field gardered his second to wind up the scoring spree in the second quarter. Mustek broke into the scoring column in the third period when he sbotj xnrougn rignt tackle, seven yards from tht Husky goal and planked the ball behind the line. Saunders piled op another touchdown a few minutes later when circled right 'end for the necessary yard after the Trojans had amoved then Huskies backwards for SO yards.

ZIMMERMAN Associated Press Sports Writer, LOS ANGELES, Oct. 12 (AP) -A game but decidedly outclassed University of California at Los Angeles eleven which refused to step aside and let Stanford's stalwarts pass, was crushed before an avalanche of nine touchdowns here today. The score was 57 to 0. From the opening kickoff until the final run Coach Spauldlng's Bruins bravely battled their giant opponents, and in the second quarter fought their way to the Cardinal four yard line In a startling offensive, which carried then 44 i LOS ANGELES, Oct. The Hollywood Stars continued their winning streak at the expense of the Missions today, taking the fifth game of the Pacific Coast league split season playoff by a 6 to 3 score.

It was their third straight victory. The Reds won the first two. The Missions led two to nothing wben the Stars went to bat in the fifth, but bunched hits gave Hollywood a one run lead. The Missions tied the eount at 3 to in the sixth. The tie was short lived, as Hollywood raised the ante to four in their half and in the next inning clinched the game with two more.

As a result the Stars were more confident than ever the title series would end tomorrow in their favor. Angle Johns went the route for the Stars, receiving a surprise call from Oscar Vitt to face Dutch Reuther, whom Red Killifer chose. Reuther and Johns battled it out in the first game, of the series in San Francisco with Reuther winning. Dutch was lifted at the end of the sixth, after the Vittmen had discovered his injured leg made it impossible for him to field bunts, and scored a run as a result of slipping two bouncers through for hits. Krause pitched one inning but was retired for a pinch hitter, and Hubbell finished the game.

Reuther was charged with the defeat. Hoffman and Slade each hit for the circuit for the Reds, but the less brilliant and better bunched bingles of the Stars proved more effective. Funk got a triple, a double and a single in four trips to the plate, scoring only once. Each team tallied ten safe hits. Clubs w.

(AP) Yale's big blue team was repulsed in its first southern invasion here today when an inspired University of Georgia team, doped to lose by at least three touchdowns, stopped the vaunted eastern spin plays dead and won 15 to 0. The game, the first major upset of the current season, dedicated Sanford field, Georgia's new bowl, and was witnessed by a crowd estimated between 30,000 and 35.000. Alrmin Waugh, fleet Georgia halfback, who jumped from a third stringer to a hero la the Furman game last week, was a constant threat to the Yale goal, but it was the Georgia line that wonhe game. The easterners shot everything in the football category at the Georgia wall, but failed to dent it for enough yardage to score. he-Road tire for wet driving: IN TRADE- BEATEN IN SOUTH EUGENE.

Oct. 12. (Special) With all of its regulars clicking In their usual positions, contrary to Coach John J. McEwan's previous announcement, the University of Oregon football team defeated Willamette university here today 34 to 0. Even with all of the lemon, yellow first string men playing.

Oregon was unable to advance the ball consistently on straight football, and had to uncover some pretty lateral pass plays and shoot long forward passes over the heads of Willamette's reserve halfbacks. In order to score. Mason, Donohue and Kltxmiller did advance the ball on straight plays at times, but whenever Oregon tried that form of attack for more than a few successive plays, it was dumped for a lo89. Breaks also figured in Oregon's scoring. Robinson intercepted a pass and a little later Oregon recovered the ball on a fumbled punt, to get in position for its first score.

A pass; Robinson to Mason, took the ball to the one yard line. This was a "crossover-pass, Robinson running to the left, then heaving the ball back to the left side of the field. Browne took it over in two tries. Bearcats Threaten Karl in Game Willamette had made its best threat early in the first quarter, when Cardinal intercepted an Oregon lateral pass on Oregon's 18 yard line. After advancing to within 11 yards of the goal, the Bearcats lost the ball on downs.

Robinson again put Oregon in scoring position early in the second quarter, by running to Willamette's 22 yard line after re- reivme a nunt. Mason went oil tackle to the six yard line, and Donohue went over for a touchdown. About this time Willamette braced up and began making some yardage itself. For the whole game, the Bearcats made ten first downs to Oregon's 16. But near the end of the second quarter, Robinson's returning of punts for long distances put Oregon on top and after Lang.

Bearcat fullback, had been disabled, the Oregon juggernaut got up steam and Mason scored the third touchdown. Early in the third quarter Er-ickson. Bearcat halfback, executed an unusual play. He ran to the right, found the way blocked, dropped back about seven yards, reversed the entire Oregon team and made a 22 yard run for a 15 yard gain to Oregon's 30 yard line.

The Oregon par ade began on the fourth play when Montgomery scored on a fake reverse and ended late in the fourth period when the diminu tive "Nosier ran baek a punt of 35 yards for the eleventh touchdown.

Columbia's lone score came just before the first hall ended, when Davis pulled the deadman stunt on his own 20 yard line, taking a pass from Costello and racing 65 yards to score. Only at one other time did Columbia get the ball in Oregon territory, and the Irishmen made no gains from scrim mage. Opening Lineup Is Composed of Reserves Coach Schissler started a team of reserves piloted by Montgomery, whose early score was follow ed by one by Essman. The third string went In at the quarter, mak ing three more touchdowns. At the half the first string came in to shove two more across.

Owen and Essman did the scoring. The opening lineup returned for two more by Montgomery and Huges and the third string finished the slaughter, Peterson and Nosier doing the scoring. Columbia was most effective with passes, completing several long ones, but intercepted passes also accounted for two of the Stater's touchdowns, the stand was full of scouts, who saw little as Schissler used only sim ple plays.
