Neither team scored In the third although the Cavaliers generated two threats.

The Commodores got three on Virginia in the last quarter. Jim McKee hit Rooster Akin for 10 yards, capping a 38-yard drive. Then Virginia scored, Arnold Dempsey firing to Sonny Handle from the five. McKee engineered a 78-yard Momentarily stalled by a back-field in motion penalty, the Commodores then threw their first pass of the game.

Fred Plckard, 160 pounds of explosive dynamite from Columbia, shot straight up the middle on the third play of the second half and waltzed 51 yards to the Tennessee 32. "That was the big play, all right," Wyatt said afterwards, and Florida State Coach Tom Nugent agreed. The net result of that starting run, which began inauspiciously from the Seminole 17, was the field goal that specialist John Sheppard booted from the 16 (Continued on Page 3) OBrien said did not believe the ribs were fractured. However, he said it would be neces- sary to examine X-ray pictures to make certain of that fact.

"Bill is awfully sors right now," O'Brien said. "It's impos-sibls to say how long he will be out of action." Irony of the injury was that it was inflicted by Majors' own teafnmate, Tackle Joe Schaffer, Schaffer was peeling back to block when Majors cut sharply to his left and collided headon with him. Bill went down hard, got up and returned to the bat And all he said was this: "We just plain got whipped." It was not a particularly news- who led the Huntland sophomore off the field. Majors went immediately to the training quarters and never did return to the bench. The ball game was wrapped up in wo minutes and 20 seconds of playing time right after the start of the second half.

That's how long it took 4he Seminoles to kick a field goal and score a touchdown. And to the Injury of being the first Southeastern conference school ever to loss to Florida State, Tennessee had ths added First Landing netted $175,965, in winning his tenth race in 11 starts.

"Art has a fine football team," said down-hearted Dick Voris, the Virginia coach, as he watched his Cavaliers slowly dress. "A'o, they didn't surprise us, even with their passing. We knew they could throw. I don't mean to take anything away from them but our pass defense was poor. I might also add that their passers threw very accurately.

Virginia Coach Says Cavalieri Were Flat "We were flat. The Army game last week took a lot out of us. We missed (Reece) Whitley. All our offense was built around him. 'When we came out for the second half, we appeared to have come to life.

The boys were all pepped up and I thought they were going to make a game out of it. When you go down to the goal twice without scoring, it hurts. "On top of that, Fred Russell got a lick on his elbow early in the game and he could not throw. That's the reason I did not'use him in the second half. Voris Praises Vandy Forewall, Tom Moore "Vanderbilt has a fine line.

They hit real hard. But I don't believe they are as fast as Army's line. Moore is a hard runner, the hardest we have seen this fall. But Army's Anderson and Dawkins are both faster." The game had been billed as Virginia's aerial offensive against Vanderbilt's deadly ground game As it turned out, the Commodores collected more yardage with their passes than the Cavaliers A nd there wasn't a great deal of difference in the yardage picked up by the foot soldiers of the two universities Virginia actually carried the ball more times than the i Commodores. Coach Voris had stated on his arrival here that he worthv statement, because the fact that Tennessee had been outplayed by the Seminoles from Tallahassee was apparent to the 23,700 fans who sat through a hazy, chilly afternoon and watched the Vols go down for the third time this year.

Wyatt's refusal to alibi, though, was "typical. He would not have been opening himself for unjust criticism if he had picked out the loss of ace sophomore Tailback Bill Majors late in the first quarter as the reason for the offensive futility of his ball club. The Vols gained only 29 yards rushing and 82 passing and didn't come close to scor- Ing, until ths final two minutes of ths gams, after Majors went out with a rib injury that may be more serious than Tennessee cared to talk about immediately after its defeat. Until Majors left the game, only two plays had originated in Tennessee territory and the second one of these carried beyond the 50 yard line into FSU territory. After Bill went out, there weren't many other moments when the Vols weren't scratching for their lives from deep within their own backyard.

But on the other hand, the Commodores didn't try to do too much to the flanks They were content with bursts through the line and with their finest passing of the campaign. Virginia Sophomore's Running Surprise Cavalier Coach John Barger, sophomore Virginia fullback, was the day's top ground gainer That was a surprise even to his own coach "Barger is a good sophomore back." Voris said.

"Today he ran much better than ever before. It was most encouraging. Another sophomore who impressed us was Louis Martig. He's a pretty rough guard." More Commodores got into action yesterday than in any other game this fall Terry Black, the little Springfield scooter, caught a 26-yard pass in the fourth quarter in the first college play of his career A bit earlier Bob Mullen, former Ifillsboro end, made his debut by grabbing one of Jim McKee's tosses They were just two- of a number of youngsters who have been longing for the opportunity to break into the lineup: "We needed something like thin to bolster the hoys' morale," Art remarked.
