Ort. 18. -iUP) — Perhaps football fan* of the Pacific coast conference could be thankful todav for the •escape clause" conlafned In the agreement between the P C C. and the trig nine concerning the Rose Bowl At the moment. Michigan’s migh ty Wolverine* seem much the best team in the big nine. But the Wolves can’t represent the conferei -e In the bowl because they played there last New Year’s day and the "escape clause ’ provides that no team shall play in the bowl two years In a row The Wolverines reached their peak Saturday against Northwest ern for a 28 to 0 vlc’ory which was so convincing that none of the sports writers who xa*' the game figure on * them losing another game all season. Two sophomore backs. Leo Koceskl and Chuck Ortmann. took the places of Bump Elliott and Bob Chappius. stars of the 19(7 big nine and Rose Bowl champions.

Ortmann and Koceski went through all the fancy all handling the 1917 team featured and they looked every bit as capable. Maybe a little more so Northwestern came up to the Michigan game with an eicellent record — victories over U. C. 1..A.. Purdue and Minnesota tn order.

After that the Wolverines intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble to set up two more tallies But Northwestern was a finished club long before that. Michigan's line, with linebacker ban Dworsky as the standout, blocked and tackled so expertly the Wildcats never , grew better.

Chuckin' Chrley Conerly of the Giants also threw four touchdown passes and plunged over for another score but they weren't near enough. The Cardinals' victory, their third In four starts, kept them close to the pace-setting Chicago Bears, west ern division leaders.

Two Teams Leading In AA Conference By United Press Until the San Francisco FortyNiners and the Cleveland Browns clash Nov. 14 the all America football conference appeared destined today to be topped by two teams. That's the way It stood as San Francisco picked up its eighth victory In a row yesterday while Cleveland, the defending champion, was annexing No. seven. Frankie Albert, as usual, paced the rollicking Forty-Niners to a 21 to 7 triumph over the New York | Yankees while the Browns rode over a sea of mud to a 31 to 14 vic ory over the reorganized Bus- ! falo Rills, mainly on the magic' arm of automatic Otto Graham. New York gained a moral vic- ' tory. at least. In holding San Francisco to less than 30 points for the first time this season, but Albert was his usual seif and that paid off. The deft little Tmaster passed 20 yards to John Strzyka) ski for one score and dove over the goal line for another. Joe Per ry got the final 'Frisco marker in the last period after a 41-yard drive. Spec Sanders scored the lone Yankee tally, driving over from the three The game also produced one of 'he season's wierdest — and greatest — plays when Albert dropped back to punt from tils own 47. The pass from cen'er was wide, but Albert retrieved it. and with a horde of Yankee linemen on his 1 tall, booted the ball on a dead run. rending it out of bounds on the New York 12 yard line. Cleveland's victory was all the ! core Impressive because it was*, -ained on a muddy field.
