The weather was ooty enough In the forenoon, but the waters abated Just long enough in the early afternoon to give the players a chance to get on the field. Then the deluge. The skies wept in the highest sense of the word, probatory accounted for by the fact that Teoh had a trouncing due. and this the sign of sorrow. However, the, downpour did not cease when the Yellow Jackets scored, and from the way this affected Tech enthusiasts it was joyful enough to stop a leakage of tears under any conditions.

Harvard also used the new rules to advantage, but was handicapped In getting off snappy plays by the slippery turf.

Atlanta had but a small representation of the gentler sex, hut they had to forsake carriages and autos for the stands, and so were, for the most part, hidden away in the general crowd. The rain did net stop a bunch of male rooters from getting in their deadly work, and the sidelines were occupied by a goodly sized crowd, who' waded up and down the field In mud, ankle deep, to follow the plays of the two teams. Mud underneath, and water coming from above, made very 1 disagreeable conditions, but the whole bunch stuck through It till the finish. Evan Players Soaked.

The Techs were simply never in the hunt and only the caprice of tune permitted the home team to score. This thing called luck Is decidedly flippant In Its manner of Just previous to the game Tech students were uttering many imprecations against luck because rain had made the field heavy and slushy, thus knocking out the hope of effectually using trick Tet it Is this wetness, this slushlness, that gave the Yellow Jackets their score. This score came from a touchdown and goal, the touchdown resulting from the, failure of Vanderbilt to recover a punt.

This failure was absolutely and solely due to the wet, slippery condition of the bsJL The pigskin simply slid right through the hands of the Vanderbilt man. Couldn't Pass Brown. But Tech team scored. The boys played a good game against heavy odds and deserve credit for their showing. though naught but chance permitted them to score.

Helsman has a good team of light men, but the Vanderbilt had no trouble In going over them, with the single exception of Brown at left end. Vandy's men simply could not get around this end no matter what player was sent that way. This Tech man Is a star player and did much to hold the score to what It was. after time he threw runners tor losses by himself. He Is the only man on the Tech eleven whose work stood out in bold relief.

The others were outclassed and had full thirty minute halves been played there Is no telling how much of a score would have been run up by the visiters. Vanderbilt has a wonderful team. Westerners can talk of the great Tost and the greater Tost machine, but for ment for for the size of men. tne opportunities tor either a Work aad the other conditions for max number Mr for be is a Michigan star. McGugin ia about all that Yost is and then some, and I dare say he deserves greater credit than Tost ever deserved for the team he has built up at Vanderbilt.

Michigan always had men who were stars before they played football under Tost. Vanderbilt has never had such. And this year when Vanderbilt all but defeated Michigan McGugin proved himself a greater football genius than greater football genius than Nebraska. These na col leges furnish teams that are the of teh middle country. Against any of the but three.

Minnesota, Chica equally sure either would beat Vanderbilt. Thinks Indians Will Win. After yesterday's contest I was asked by many what I thought Vanderbilt' chances against Carlisle. Frankly, I think, the Indians will sure jay score of possibly about is to 0 or. 18 to 4.

November Princeton and Tale today played a 0 to 0 football game, the first time la nearly twos i ty years that neither eleven has scored. The wearers of the orange and black had confidently expected to win 4 I as the Princeton team, this fail was of the best product, and so hopeful were they that edds of 5 to were freely accepted prior to the game that Yale would be defeated. But the Princeton eleven of today was a disappointing one, the lightning like plays which the coaches had been depending on to confound the Yale boys were lacking, sad E. Dillon, the wonderful little quarterback on whom such high hopes had seen built, fumbled miserably. His dropping of punts would have resulted disastrously to Princeton had It not' been for the fast work of later, Princeton's left end, This player was all over the field, and hia running down under kicks wss little short of marvelojs.

There Were numerous tries at forward passes, delayed passes and on slde passes, but in a majority of cases they went Princeton lacked a diversity of She could net gain on neither could she pierce the Tale line with any degree of success.
