Put your lines of code in separate <script> tags.
google.load() uses document.write() to write a <script> tag into the
document. This <script> tag is not executed until the current <script> tag
exits. So your jQuery.noConflict() call is being executed before jQuery is
loaded.
If you break up the <script> tags like this, it should work fine:
<script type="text/javascript>
google.load("jquery", "1");
</script>
<script type="text/javascript>
jQuery.noConflict();
google.load("prototype", "1");
</script>
