One of the strongest and most dangerous teams in the conference fell before its own weapon when the highly specialized passing attack which the ambitious Menlo Oaks had built up for the benefit of the Blue and White boomeranged with, to the Oaks, fatal results. Bulldog backs intercepted four passes, turning three of them into touchdowns, and only the final gun pre- vented Peterson from scoring another San Mateo touchdown. The Bulldogs suffered excessively from penalties, but always made up the lost yardage. This game, the second conference tilt at the Burlingame field, put the Bulldog gridders on the top of the pile. The entire backfield played a wide-awake game, and the whole team was fired up as they never were at any other time during the season. MODESTO J. C. 12 - 7. Captain Carl Mitchell's spectacular run to a touchdown after catching a punt on his own 5-yard line was the deciding score of a poorly played game at Modesto which almost upset the Blue and White. The game was played on the Blue Devils' home' field, and these same Blue Devils came uncomfort- ably close to stopping the Bulldogs. They were leading 7-6 with five minutes to go, and it seemed that Mitche1l's run had been in vain, when Modesto fell

Milo Quissling, frosh fullback, led in the scoring column with three touchdowns, and Ed Haynes, another Frosh, was close behind with two. They and Captain Maury Baldwin turned in the best performances on the field. SANTA CLARA FRosH. 6 - 24 After a stubborn, dogged defense throughout the first half, the Bulldogs broke before a smashing attack led by Hardenian and Dowd, and only a des- perate last minute pass saved J. C. from a thorough whitewashing. Two costly fumbles paved the way for Padre scores, and a punt returned sixty yards added six more points. Smith, sub quarter, snatched little jerry Harris' short pass eight yards from the goal line and raced across to score San Mateo's only touchdown. Ernest Rae, Barney Allen, and Maury Baldwin played good football, but could not stein the tide. lVlARIN J. C. 25 -O. ln the first conference game of the season, the Blue and Wliite, after a first period which gave the fans more than one scare, vented their feelings on the Mariners and moved upward a notch toward the championship. The Yellowjackets, who had already beaten the Blue Devils of Modesto, opened the game in spectacular fashion with a finished passing attack, but went to pieces in the last half, and the Bulldogs unleashed a passing attack that succeeded in scoring. . Quissling was the star of the contest. In the line, Rae, Allen, Beard, and Baldwin were outstanding. CALIFORNIA FROSH. 0 - 6. A blocked kick spelled bitter defeat to an eleven that consistently out- played, outfought, and outgained the victors in a game that was finally decided by the worst of ill-luck. Brant Eubanks, crippled by an injured knee, twice caught long passes which should have been touchdowns, but on each occasion was overhauled from behind. A slow, grueling game ended in a 6-O defeat. Quissling, Haynes, Eubanks, and Rae played well for the Blue and Wliite.

Eubanks recovered, and immediately afterward took Haynes' long pass from the hands of a pair of defensive backs to advance the ball 35 yards. Another long pass, which Smith received on the 2-yard line, put the ball in scoring position. Dutriz crashed over to score. Tony Dutriz made good in his first big chance of the year, and Haynes' long passes saved the game. They and Carl Mitchell in the backfield, and Eubanks, Rae, Allen and Baldwin in the line, saved the Bulldogs from defeat. CALIFORNIA POLY. 26 - 6. A second string backfield started the fireworks, and the regulars did the mopping-up in the last game of the season at Burlingame field. The Ramblers played a hard game, and proved their lighting qualities by scoring just a few minutes before the end of the game after a brilliant march from deep in their own territory, but they were unable- consistently to withstand the inces- sant hammering of the Bulldogs attack. Bert Allen played a brilliant and steady game at half, as did Dutriz, who made a beautiful 18-yard run to score. Ernie Rae, Barney Allen, and the ever- dependable Maury Baldwin turned in the best performances in the line.
