The OBJ stacle was the Hardy eleven from the Oregon Agricultural college, but the final score-35 to 0-was one of the most lob sided in the history of Gil mour Dobies coaching career. The Aggies gave all they had and fought desperately every minute Of the game but they had met zone too many” In the Dobie machine. It was only in the last period that the flaws in Dobie’s eleven-and some were very pronounced at times-were corrected and the Washington men were able to pierce the line of their opponents for any material yardage. At the end of the third quarter the Washington boys had a lead of only seven points over their opponents and even the most optimistic Seattle sup porter did not concede the Dobieites a heavy score.

The varsity players shot through the holes the linesmen picked out and gain followed gain. The last two touchdowns were the result of blocked kicks. The badly shattered line of the Wis itors failed to keep away the Wash ington linesmen who swept through and got at the ball before 1t had left the toe of Hubbard. On both occasions Washington man fell on the ball. and, once in possession of the pigskin, the varsity backs experienced little trouble in carrying 1t over The first blocked kick in the last period was on Oregon’s five-yard line.
