MONTELL, Fistic Battles and Football Serve to Entertain Small Gathering At Beach Park. By R-LPtl nOSLER VALLEJO, Oct. 22. The Su Mary's College varsity slipped, ekiJ-ded and splashed its way to a 4-to- victory over the Mare Island Marines here today on the Beach Park gridiron in a ragged game filled to the brim with fights, fumbles, arguments and sensational plays. On a muddy, sloppy field, so slippery that the players were unable to keep to their feet, Coach Madigan's Broadway cqllegiano outweighed on the line, outfought, outplayed and outfoxed Coach nuebel's sea soldier gridders.

orl I L- i California ewamficM the University of Oregon yesterday afternoon in the greatest mud battle ever seen on California field, winning the openin game of the Pacific Coast conference by the score of 39-0. The Lemon Yellow of Eugene were outclassed and out-lucked from the openin whistle and it was evident that the line plunging tactics of the 'ruins would carry thetn to even a higher core than had been expected by their most ardent enthusiasts. The game started in a driving rain that continued without letup for the entire first half and the field was a sea of mud after the first five minutes of play. Rain had come down in sufficientquantities to make open work an impossibility and spectacular plays equally improbable. California entered the game determined to stick to straight football and the kicking game and these tactics carried the Golden Dear across the Oregon goal six times during the course of the game.

Bugs Baer Enjoys the Big Game 723 "If TV v. Ohio State Is Winner Over Michigan Team BY INTERNATIONAL HEWS BZRVICI LEASED WIRC TO TRIBUNE. ANN 'AKBOK, Oct. 23. Ohio State took Michigan University Into camp here this afternoon In their annual meet by a 11 to 0 score.

Ohio's first touchdown in the second period, was the result of quick thinking by Stuart, who grabbed a punt and made a sensational 40-yard run over the Wolverine goal. Consistent gains by "Weaver, Workman and Taylor were responsible for the second touchdown, which came In the last quarter. Oregoa started the game without, the service of four of her veterans, and while the line appeared to stack up on falrlj5 even terms with the Hears when the two team took the field, -it. wan evident after a few plays that the Oregonians lucked the charge that would net them u.i.y yardage when on the offensive. While the northern team wan licked, and licked soundly, it la greatly to their credit Hhat they were on their toe and trying throughout the entire game.

eiM'MT the Lemon Yellow got the ball they attempted to make headway against the powerful California line, but the l.ruiiis with their swift charge broke up play after play and threw the Oregon hacks repeatedly for losses or held them at the line of BcrininiiiM without any gain having been made. Bears Seemed to Like Playing in Water. California is not a mud team by "Mure but the lluara look to the water yesterday as though they had been brought up on such sort of football, tana feared thai when the Urulns meet. Washington Slate next week In I'ortland that they would be at a disadvantage In case of rain. Many of these doubt were dispelled after watching the liruln backs plunge limn after time for great yardage.

Even the pea of mud did not prevent apectacular runs In the open by uon Mchols and Dick Punne, two of the newest of the Hruin bucks and both stars in this department of the game. Even without a secure footing Nichols appeared shifty of foot and eluded tackles on several occasion when he appeared to be cornered. In every case the Interference was perfect and McMillan, and li.am ahowed their real worth by spilling Oregon tacklers before could reach the Meet liruln backs. Nisbet and Leslie In Punting Duel. AreVfe Nisbet on behalf of California and Spike Leslie for Oregon engaged In a punting duel with a football that had mud caked on Ha Bides bo heatfy that It wan like at-tamp' urn hi urop kick with a bail on every attempt.

The plie-nomenal work of Nisbet can well bo realized wlitn the average of punts for the iluy ia figured up.

Here Ilea the atory of how California gained the greater part of her distance over the Oregonians without having to buck iirst down repeatedly, as would have been the case were.

Bill Ingram played the leading rc-le iti Stanford's undoing. He was the-star of the Fleet's oftonse tho' greater part of the gam-e. Two sen- satimiMl runs marked Ingram's gains.

Several gains were made through the Stanford line by Waters. Khoiici. and Ingram. Waters went over, tor the Navy score, and Ingram kicked tho goal following the touchdown. A soon as Stanford had kicked off to resume play, Ingram tool; the ball for an end run, and circled the Stanford light end fur sixty-five yards to the last Navy touchdown.

Stanford's rally came in the last five minutes of play. Schlaudeman opened up the play with a spectacular forwlird pass to Wilcox.tli.it netted the Cardinals twenty yards. Schlaudeman continued the march down the field with his line bucking, and the Fleet line was unable to hold the slippery Cardinal back, who plunged over for the score, and Wilcox kicked the TWO BKASOXS FOR IJKKEAT. The Stanford defeat at the hands of the Pacific Fleet may be attributed to two reasons. In the first place, the grounds being wet hurt the Cardinal offense, as the Stanford team was considerably lighter, and their best chance lay In the open game.

22. Harvard football warriors met Pemi State's Lions here this afternoon in one of the greatest gridiron battles in Harvard's history. They divided honors with a score of 21 to 21. The tlrst quarter was tinged with Crims-on and Harvard scored first, George Owen, 'Crimson halfbiick, after repeated gains, plunged, over for a touchdown from Perm Slate's 2-yard line. Huell kicked goal.

Harvard lost Owen, however, when he was injured in the next' play, and with him went much of the Crim son's offensive and defensive power. Even in the second 'period looked as if Harvard had tuiten the. gauge of Penn Staters and had them listed for defeat. It was in this period that Chapin, full back, tore through right guard for the second touchdown. P.uell again kicked goal.

The tide of battle turned when the "Lions" tasted blood. The real fighting of the game began, and from then on for most of the game the Penn Staters literally swept the Crimson off their feet. Captain Killenger, Penn State's sterling and hard working quarterback, flashed around his own right end to Harvard's 1-yard line. Here Lightncr, halfback, drove through for a touchdown and then kicked goal. Richmond Hi.
