Bill Edwards, who complained 3 Bears, Bama Ray Thumbed From Game In Wild Final Frame (Continued From Pao One) were fighting for all they v. era worth. There was plenty of shoving around at the jila( and Me-Cutcheon lost his mask, rap and NEW YORK (ID The Boston Red Sox, roaring irresistibly from behind in one of the greatest stretch stand of all time, finally took over first place from the New York Yankees yesterday, beating them, 7 to 6, before 66,158 frantic fans at Yankee stadium.

They won the game in a fashion that has been typical of their temper. With all the Hears claw play since mid-season, putting on a lant ditch four-run rally in the eighth inning off Lefty Joe Page.l who has been heralded as one of na Decn Heralded as one oi At ft aseball's great relief pitchers. I hlr 1 Tf II When they came to bat In that 111 I limactic frame, they trailed 6 to 3, climactic frame, they with justification that was borne out in a review of the game movies yesterday, wasn't the only head coach felt that the officials gave him poor job. Slick Morton, Mississippi State mentor, was literally burned up over the way the Maroons' game with Tennessee was handled. He branded it the worst officiated game he had ever seen.

He thought the penalties for roughing the kicker were out of line in view of the fact that a State punter was knocked down and nothing was done about it. Five times State drew 15 yard penalties. Edwards Positive Worrall Made Mistake on Lateral Reviewing the movies yesterday with most of his squad and his staff, Bill Edwards was positive that the Commodores were the victims of bad judgment on the part of Umpire Bobby Worrall when Worrall called a lateral pass a forward that blotted out a first down and forced Vanderbilt to punt. Only four minutes were left in the game at the time. The pictures clearly show that Bud Curtis, his back to Tech's goal, tossed the ball laterally and slightly backward to Bill Jones.

Jones was standing flat-footed and I'age, with a nonchalant grin that was perceptible deep in the grandstand, was mowing the Red Sox down. He had entered the To Even Series wj i tl VV'Er game In relief for red Wanrortl ing at him, tho red-racea umpire yelled back and started thumbing the players.

Bama just remarked that of all the lousy decisions the umps were rendering, it seemed S3 if the Vols were getting the worst of them. As in the previous games, it looked like an easy Nashville win as Bobo Holloman was hurling a great two hitter for seven innings. But Bill Antonello slammed a two-run homer in the ninth to knot the numerals at 4-all. Manager Rollie Hemsley called on most of his aces in an effort to stop the sudden ferocious Bruins with two out in the fifth and had breezed through two Innings.

Jim's nose still bothers him and he probably will Anderson, Berry and Nalley go to ground In pile; Nalley came up with the ball. one hand on it, and Lee Nalley rushing in to try to break it up. Another shot shows Anderson, Nalley and Berry on the ground scrambling for the ball. The movies show Nalley with the ball when ho gets to his feet. Bill Bentley, the linesman, was on the far side of the field and not in a position to see what happened.

Movies also show that Jack Griffin pushed Joe Hicks out of the way to try to catch Jimmy Southard's pass late in the second quarter. This play was ruled double interference. Perhaps it has happened before but it was a new ruling for these old ears. But, after watching the movies, it was evident that the mistakes the Commodores made contributed immensely to Tech's triumph. The offensive line blocking at times was very ragged, the Jacket ends were allowed to loop, the line backers were unmolested on several occasions, and the defensive play of the secondary, particularly on Tech's touchdown tour, was far below expectations.

Edwards expects to have these weaknesses eliminated by the time Alabama comes here Saturday. Tennessee Six-Point Choice Over Duke Although Tennessee had a difficult time with Mississippi State in its opener, Bob Neyland's Vols are a six-point favorite over Duke Saturday.
