The giant fullback gave the Vol line many terrific charges that caused his opponents substitution list to swell. Walker's erratic punts caused the Ole Miss men to lose much ground during the first half, on several occasions the Tennessee ends would break through and cause short and badly aimed spirals.

In the second half when Walker found his strir? however. Captain Applewhite's speed in getting down on punts resulted in only slight returns. The Vols drew first blood in the first quarter when two successive line plunges bv Dod son carried that gentleman over for a touchdown. Witt added the point alter, touchdown.
