A flash of liglu-ning, a break of waves, Alabama's mignty Crimson Tide surged like a storm at sea today against Clem-son's embattled deiense and swept to a 40 to 0 triumpn over the Tigers. Approximately 8,000 fans, many ot tnem "old grads" back tor Ala- bama homecoming and Governor-Elect Bibb Graves as guest of honor, comfortably filled the small stadium as sunshine played April-like through the autumn foliage surrounding the field.

Headed by the wildest wildcat of them all, left-half Nick Kotys the Villanovans pounced over the Carolina goal line three times, added a pair of extra points, and came out with their second win of the season. A WILD WILDCAT Kotvs, who, incidentally, was thrust into the Villanova backficld only in a last-minute pre-game decision by "Coach Harry Stuhldreher, carried the mail with a venegeance.

Twice he went over for touchdowns, once in the second period and again In the third. And it was his accurate throwing arm which netted the closing score. For, late in the fourth quarter, he faded back from scrimmage to the Carolina 28-yard line and hurled a splendid pass to Dick Emmerling, sub back, for the final touchdown. The scrappy Gamecocks staged three threats, but on each occasion lacked the ounch to penetrate the stubborn Villanova forward wall. Late in the first period, they hammered deep into Wildcat territory, but were stopped inside the 15 yard line.

Somewhat later, they got' to the Villanova 4-yard line, but missed the necessary distance for a first down by inches. And, as the closing minutes crept up. they again went into Villanova territory, but once more the Villanova defense was too much. Kotys' first score was a right-end sweep, good for a yard, climaxing a 17-yard Villanova drive which began after a Carolina fumble was recovered, Nick's second-period tally was a 20-yard right end sprint to score after a 40-yard downfield march. The two extra points for Villanova were products of Bernie Lee's accurate toe.

OUTRUSH SOUTHERNERS The Villanova offensive was good for fifteen first down to five for the southern opposition, and the Wildcats went ahead 281 yards from scrimmage, while South Carolina could gain but 85. In the aerial department South Carolina showed to better advantage, completing four of fifteen trys for a 33-yard advance.

THE TEXANS, SI For Ranger, Bob King, Furman's great sophomore encj, reentered the game alter a two-weeks' layoff and broke up more Citadel interference than a Charleston gob can break street lamps while on Saturday night shore leave. And Roy Stevens, the other sophomore from Texas failed nary a time to send the cadets back into their places with his long spiraling boots. Not once did Stevens falter today. It was a nip-and-tuck hard fought ball game, with the largest and most enthusiastic Citadel home coming crowd the city has ever seen turn out cheering the cadets on toward what looked several times like victory.

But it wasn't in the cards for The Citadel to win today, not even after Blair and Fisher had been bundled off to the dressing room with injuries too serious to allow them to continue. Citadel ran up a total of 11 first downs against Furman's clipping off five, in the first few minutes of the game before the Hurricane forwards started functioning Furman made seven first downs two in the first half arid five in the last.

(AP The old Georgia hoodoo paid its annual visit to the Yale bowl today and the Crackers from Dixie downed the Elis, 14 to 7, thereby be-cominc the first team on record to turn the blue back five times in a row. The scries, of which today's battle was the eleventh, began in 1923 and the Georgians have won every game since 1929. Twenty-f i thousand customers turned out to see the red-jerseyed visitors spot the home boys to a touchtown early in the proceedings and then, led by George Chapman and Johnny Bond, two fancy backs, and well supported by a powerful, hard-charging line come back to score twice and romp home with victory. ROSCOE ABSENT Yale, victor over a strong Dartmouth team last week, but minus the services of Jerome Roscoe, its forward-passing quarterback, went into the contest with renewed dish and fire and with Tommy Curtin, filling in for Roscoe and Stan Fuller, the fullback, cheered its rooting sections by racing into the lead almost before the customers were comfortably seated. Curtin grabbed a Cracker kick and tore back 30 yards to midfield.

Two plays later Puller smashed through left tackle and with a clear field ahead of him, stepped 47 yards for a touchdown. Capt. Clare Curtin added a point with his place kick. Then the Georgians brought out the Indian sign and the Yale luck began to wane. Rankin fumbled and Shi, a tackle, recovered for the southerners on Yale's 27 yard line.

A minute later Al Minot tore straight through the line nnd raced 24 yards for the first visiting score. Bond's placement was no good, but Yale was off-side and the point was counted. THAT OLD JINX Another break, perhaps a part of the Cracker jinx, paved the way for the winning touchdown, two periods later. Whitehead, usually a most dependable punter, got off a poor one and Georgia took it on Yale's 38. Chapman and Bond ripped the Yale line to pieces as they stormed to within a yard of the goal.

Here the blue forwards made a back-to-the-wall stand and held for two plays, but, ond the next Chapman phants ran amuck leaving destruction in their wake as they plowed and pounded through the Clemson defense. Like ripened grain before a scythe the Tiger defense went down before the most relentless array of blockers ever turned loose in this or 3iiy other section. The Tigers were literally mowed down while the bruising, orunching elephants battered, passed and ran their way up and down the gridiron. The Alabama team, by far the most powerful these veteran sports writers here today have seen, reached the crest of its amazing strength against Clemson which hitherto had not been beaten by more than two touchdowns, and then by Wallace Wade's Duke Blue Devils, 20 to 6. Thomas, who succeeded Wade at the Capstone, seemed bent upon outdoing his predecessor and how well he did is shown by the 23 first downs Bama registered to Clemson's four and the 433 yards Bama gained to Clemson's 69.

The Tiger wasn't tossed about by the wild waves as a derelict ship until the second half, having stood the rough sea fairly well in holding the Tide to two touchdowns in the first half. Even so, half the six touchdowns might have been prevented with more alertness but the Clemson defense could have given Demyanovich a police slip for parking overtime so well did the Tigers stop this powerhouse from New Jersey on his thrusts. It was a new pass hitherto not shown by the Tide that gave Clemson the most trouble, not to mention a few cutback and end runs that were perfectly timed behind magnificent interference. To see a team, yea three teams as capable as Alabama perform with precision, passes and punch is worth the time and pay envelope of any correspondent who marvels at what can really be accomplished in a football way when a school has more smart halfbacks than professors and more rugged linesmen than janitors. Alabama's got it this year, just like she had it in three trips to Pasadena, and Clemson today offered no testimony In rebuttal to their greatness.

Eight thousand persons were in the stadium as the teams lined up for battle. Alabama in flaming red jerseys contrasted with the canary colored Clemson shirts for a flashing spectacle on the sun-flooded field. Alabama kicked off. Hutson gave the ball a hefty boot in the pants and it soared to Hinson on the goal line and he brought it back to the 20. HOWELL RETURNS Hinson darted out to his right and cut back for a four-yard gain over tackle.

On a punt both teams were offside and then Dillard rammed right guard for a yard. Stevens punted to Howell on Alabama's 34-yard line and he was run out by Fellers on the Bama's 44. Clemson next got its first glimpse of Millard Howell, rated one of the best backs in America, when he was stopped at the line for no gain. Howell went back in punt formation, fumbled but recovrred for a 10-yard loss, being stopped from passing by Fellers. Howell then punted and Hinson returned 10 to Clemson's 33 for the Tigers to try their offensive weapons.

But through it all thus Clemson team was in the game, fighting a hopeless battle against overwhelming physical odds, and a broken nose, a sprained ligament, a twisted knee and other injuries evidenced the fact that the Tigers fought to the last ditch and never gave up even to the extent of having their own forward passes fly back in their faces. John Troutman suffered a broken nose and other boys had wounds to show for troublesome moments, but they carried on as bravely as an honest man facing a firing squad.
