Stanford completely dominated the play in posting a lopsided 46-7 victory over the hapless Spartans from San Jose. Douglas smoothly directed the attack as the Indians moved well both on the ground and (n the air in piling up offensive yardoge. Some beautiful running by Valli, including a 60-yard romp, gave him a 103 yard total for the afternoon. Card defenders stalled the San Jose offense and turned four intercepted passes into touchdowns for the Big Red. Forty men sow action for the Indians as Coach Taylor cleared the bench.

The Stanford Indians ventured deep info the heart of Texas to meet the Rice Owls in o night gome at Houston. The reception given the Tribe was anything but cordial as they returned home smarting from a 34-7 setback. A pair of senior quarterbacks. King Hill and Frank Ryan, led the Rice attock with a phenomenal passing display. Injuries sent QB Jack Douglas, end Gory yan Colder, and full- back Chuck Shea heading for the sidelines early in the gome, leoving Stanford s offensive definitely lacking. The Indians managed o facesover late in the game with sophomore Sid Garber calling the signals. McMillen skirted end for six points and Bond converted.
