PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2 Any faint hopes there may have been for a Rose Bowl chance for Temple university football huskies vanished as completely as the Thanksgiving turkey today under a scoreles stalemate with Buck nell's thundering herd of bisons. Not only did the burly Buck- nellians smash back every threat made by "Dynamite Dave' Smuk- ler and the rest of the Temple en tourage.

Phil Miller and Stuart Smith hit the highly-rated Temple forward wall all afternoon, and time after time got through. Thirty thousand fans shouted themselves hoarse as the Temple attack, full of Warner deception and power, cracked the Bucknell line late in the first period to reach the Bison nine-yard mark as the teams changed sides. But the threat ended on the second play of the ensuing "quarter when, after a line play failed. Smukler failed on a placement field goal try. Again In the third period, Don Watts took a Bucknell punt and sprinted downfleld for the game's longest run.

The deadlock leaves Temple with realization of its dream an undefeated-season for the first time In the Institution's history but the wlndup was as disappointing as that of a year ago, when this same Bison from Bucknell again trampled on the Temple hopes with a bristling victory.

An audience of about 1,000 saw the sera but had their attention diverted from the proceedings at hand by the broadcast of the Van- derbllt-Alabama game at Birming ham Coach Johnny Lynch of the Ryan Purple crew, sent a goodly number of his shock troops into the game at the start, but rushed reinforcements when the visitors counted at the end of the first quarter with a beautifully executed forward pass at the end or a aou-ble pass In the backfleld. From there on out, the viewpoint was all Purple with the smaller red-shirted visitors fighting gamely but unsuccessfully and fumbling at critical moments. Earlv in the first quarter It looked as If the Purple would tally, as they got the ball on the Memphis 20 after recovering a fumble, but lost the ball on downs.

Wad-ley kicked out of danger and then Ahern intercepted Fox' pass on the 15 and dashed to the 45 before be-Ing shot down.

29 If Frsnk Thomss, who succeeded one -greet eosch at Alabama, desires to replace another he can pick up the brilliant toga which Major. Bob Neyland dropped at Tennessee because your Uncle Sam wants him to live beneath the sheltering palm trees down in Panama. A delegation from Ternessee, with authority to nsgoti te, he been te see Frank Thort is who already has coached two unbeaten Dixie elevens since he came to Tuscaloosa te succeed Waline Wads, the first to carry Alabama to ths Rose Bowl. The contract of Frank Thomas has another year te run at Tuscaloosa and considering that he Has the best materiel in all of Dixie from which te construct championship material, it may be that he will not warm up tu the Tennessee overtures. As long as Alsbsma has no more formidable opposition each year than Tennessee and Van- -derbilt, there seeme no way te deprive them of a title except by a court injunction.

FRANK THOMAS came to Alabsms in 1931, and within that short spsn has captured two Dixie titles. Tcosy's triumph ever Vander-bilt was his 13th victory in succession. It is known thst Bobby Dodd has an appointment at Knox-ville for Monday with Tennes-sse officiate but it ie believed that the celebrated forward psstet is going there te talk about a job as ssistsnt rather than as heed coach. He already has ssid he would not take the job of being gridiron bos at his alma mater. FOR SOME time, there hes been clsmor from ths Wolves in Atlsnts for a house cleaning.

That is house cleaning of everyone ssve Bill Alexander. They are completely satisfied with him thst Is, school officials are until kingdom come. But they want a new crop of first lieutenants. On that account credence le given the report thst Bobby. Dodo will go back to pow-wow with the heme folks about teaching the Vols hew to pass.

Personally I wouldn't think they need any such knowledge considering as how Pug Vsughan has proven he could whiss that football so uncan-nl'v. Neither do I believe that Frank Thomas will succeed the greet Major Nsylsnd. ha already replaced Wallace Wade with Immense success. He could probably de the same at Knexville. But he likee Tuscs-loos snd they like him.

Maybe so. And to think that Vanderbilt only as far back as 1924 won from Minnesota 18 to 0. THE first thing Dan Mc-Gugin did today was to throw an arm around each player, ihak the hand of the drooping Commodores and give them a pat on the back. Then he marched over to shake the hand of Frank Thomas, the fellow who hae beat hie last team and thereby robbed him of the last crumb of comfort he might have gotten out of tregie seseon.
