California's Golden Bears took another day off from spring football Monday, to trounce the Crimson, 21 to 5, in the Berkeley Memorial Stadium.
As in Saturday's 18-6 loss, Crimson center Jim Joslin scored all his side's points, scoring a try between the posts and kicking the two-point conversion.
In startling comparison to Saturday's mild game, Monday's match pitted the Crimson against the biggest and most aggressive team it has faced in some time. Again, however, the Bears were the only side to utilize the West Coast's substitution for injuries rule, although as the final whistle blew, Crimson scrum half Charles Levine and flanker John Chalsty were both lying unconscious on the turf. Neither suffered lasting aftereffects.
California plunged straight into Crimson territory after the kickoff, and had scored twice within the first six minutes. (8 to 0). Joslin put the Crimson back in the game, however, with a fine 15 yard run. He made no mistake with the easy conversion. (8 to 5).
From this point on, the standard of play degenerated, as tempers flared under the provocation of impartially incompetent refereeing. The Bears scored two more tries, on bulling forward rushes by 240 lb. Don Gilkey and football star Jim Hughes, to register what the Daily Californian called "their second telling blow for western rugby in three days."
"Those Harvards are really aggressive," Cal coach Doc Hudson said after the game. "I hope we can get them back here next year."
