10. (Exclusive) Georgia Tech today won a decisive victory over hitherto unbeaten Vander- bUt, 19 to 7. Both teams, un-whipped within and without the ranks of the Southern Conference, fought to a finish with the realization that further champions nip hopes lay within their hour of football strife. It was the Golden Tornado, however, Jiat flashed the superiority In every department. Only an inspired determination saved the Commodores from rout at the hands of a terrific storm from the Tech flats.

'jS A ENGINEERS WIN CLASH, SCORE, 13-7 Occidental Defeated in Football Battle Played at Rose Boui BY FRANK ROCHE Staging one of the most bewildering upsets In Southern Conference football history, the Caltech Engineers, coached by "Fox" Stanton, defeated the Occidental Tigers yesterday at the Rose Bowl by a 13-to-7 margin in a game that was a thrilling drama to the winners and a dialling nightmare to the losers. The victory of the Engineers was so unexpected that Coach Stanton declared after the game that he could hardly believe it himself. The game was a triumph for a fine Utile team that played almost perfect football against a powerful and what appeared to be stronger eleven that played more like a team of jng-piers and bad ones at that. Occidental was as much responsible for the Caltech victory as the winners were themselves. The Tigers gave the Engineers their two touchdowns and the.

VOSBURGn Associated Press Sports Writer ALBANY (N. Nov. 10. (P Carnegie Tech, a giant eleven with punch and a dazzling bag of tricks, emerged victorious over Georgetown by a score of 13 to 0, this afternoon in a battle for survival between two of the East's hitherto unbeaten teams. Before a wildly enthusiastic crowd of 70,000 at the new Charwick Stadium, this stalwart band t.f athletes from Pitt marched ahead to their sixth straight victory of the season in impressive style.

It was the first reverse of the year for the Georgetown team, which had gained recognition as a contender for the mythical eastern title by flattening New York University. Led by its 233-pound fullback, John Karcls, and its slim, resource- STA.MTON, Football TOUCHDOWN touchdowns to 1, and the lighter, and outwardly less formidable, team knocked the brawny men of the Army line out of their way In an amazing show of spirit and skill, matched against lumbering, muscle might. The Yankee Stadium was jammed with 80,000 spectators. John O'Brien of Los Angeles, one of the few genuine Gaels among the men of all nations who make up the Notre Dame force, did something for his team in the fourth quarter that will suffice for plenty of conversation when he has kids of his own on his kneecaps. He was sent into the game to relieve Colerick at right end when Notre Dame had the ball on the 32-yard line, just after a horrible fumble by Chevigny, the halfback.

CATCHES PASS On the first play after his O'Brien was sent legging it down toward the goal and Frank Carideo, the quarterback, retreated a few steps to the 40-yard line. From there he shot a high, hump-backed pass to O'Brien. O'Brien looked up and back, running half-skiewtie, caught the ball in his extended hands, juggled it, stumbled and fell over the goal on top of the ball for the second touchdown and the winning score. As soon as he got up he saw his coach, Knute Rockne, standing beckoning on the sidelines, with the blanket ready. O'Brien romped off.

Rockne threw the blanket over the boy's shoulders with his own hands, then grasped him by the hand and nearly wrung it from his wrist in a strange emotional show for a broken-nosed coach who has seen years of heroics In football and can't be stirred trifles. Notre Dame ripped the Army line wide open in the first two quarters and made five first downs from scrimmage to the Army zone, besides leading by many yards the (Continued on Page Column 8) ONLY UNBEATEN IN EAST; SMEARS' BY SCORE OF 13-0 ful quarterback and captain. Howard Harpster, the Carnegie machine scored a touchdown in the first quarter on a plunge by the human locomotive, Karcls, with Harpster adding the extra point from placement, and then put the game on lea with a second touchdown in tha third period by Ted Rosenzwelg, an end, whose maurauding ball-carrying activities on tricky end-around formations made life miserable fop Georgetown all afternoon. By their victory, coupled with the defeat of the Army, the Carnegie team stood out, tonight as the only major undefeated eleven in the East, with the exception of Boston College, which did not play today, but is to meet Fordham on Mon day. Jerry Carroll, Georgetown eap tain and guard, was carried from the field early in the game with a possible fracture of the leg.

Swamped under an avalanche of touchdown, battered by half a dozen Trojan teams, the Wildcats succumbed, 78 to 7, in a game which saw Marshall Dur field, Bert Rich' ey. and Ev Brown run riot in an orgy of scoring. It was the second largest score ever run up by a Howard Jones Southern California team, being ex ceeded only bv the 80-to-0 rout of Pomona in 1925.

Wilting under the terrifie pounding and fading before the never-ending string of Trojan the Wildcats were pushed all over the field in the final stanza, when the home boys ran up 38 points In a df i-zlin? succession of runs and passes. Tow-headed Marshall Duffield scored four touchdowns, added two extra points via the drop-kick method and in general conducted himself as only a high-class football player can.

His last tally in the fourth period was made on a 25-yard run during which he fought off half a dozen tacklers and ended up by diving on his face over the goal line. Jones tried Bert Ritchey at end and the big colored boy knocked off about 90 yards in the first quarter alone. He came around from his wing position on those reverses or end-around plays or whatever you want to call 'em. It got so the Wildcats knew he was coming, but they were powerless to stop him. In the last quarter Bert intercepted a pass 'and galloped 70 yards to his first touchdown, the second coming a few moments later when he nabbed a pass over the goal line.

ONLY FOUR OUT Jones used all his players with the exception of Nate Barragar, Francis Tappaan, Don Williams and Frank Anthony, all of whom could have played had it been necessary.

(JF) Yalfc's supposedly powerful, eleven was routed by a light, but fast and wide-awake Maryland team today by the score of 6 to 0, the Yale defeat being one of the most unexpected upsets of the day anywhere In the country. Maryland had not been given a chance against Yale because of its poor early season showmg, but the southerners today completely outplayed and outguessed the Blue, eleven, which appeared stale, slow and over-rated.
