pXge two THE CONSTITUTION, ATLANTA, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 19Z8. FOOTBALL WON FOR ALABAMA, SAYS STATON Statistics ises as Illinois Is Defeated, 3 to 0 ichisan Stock k3 or BETTER Tech Field Goal Hubert Flips a Pass in Alabama's Victory Over Tech in the game Saturday against just after he flipped the ball into the air to Johnny Mack Brown, BY JOHN STATON, Former All-Southern End. To think that it should come to this: Alabama 7, Tech o. To think that the conquerors of Penn State, Florida and V. M.

I. should be forced to bow to the conquerors of Howard, Sewanee and Union. There seems to be something incongruous about it all. It is hard to feel, to even think, that the best football team won. It is easy to feel, to think and to know that the team which played the better football scored the lone touchdown of the game.

The chief value of statistics in a football game is to offer solace to the vanquished. Tech, then, can find crust of Satisfaction in knowing that she made more first downs arid gained more yardage on passes. Alabama played a flashy, wide-open Kame, and played it more perfectly than Tech -dnyed its driving system. Q'he caveman's bludgeon against the rapier. And the rapier slashed its way to victory.

The run which Mack Brown made to score a touchdown was one of the prettiest pieces of broken-field work to which Atlanta football lovers have ever been treated. Capitalized On Speed. Capitalizing his speed, lirown literally outran me whole Tech team in a dash which took him dangerously near the boundary line and several Tech tacklers. lirown, in justice to the remainder of his teammates, was ably assisted by his whole team. j.

ney formed for him a perfect wail of interference. On the one side was the boundary; on the other a wall of 'llama interference. Here was the perfect sprinter's lane. And down that lane Brown sailed with a speed which is characteristically his. To say that Alabama played better football in beating Tech is not telling the whole story.

One of the chief contributing factors in that viciory was Alabama's supremacy in punting and in returning punts. On every exchange Alabama gained from to 1 yards. With one or two possible exceptions, Alabama made better return of Tech's punts than did Tech of Alabama's. A yard gained is a yard gained, be it through the line, on an end run or by virtue of superior kicking. This feature of Alabama's play must not be discounted.

Another thing Alabama's line fought on equal terms with Bill l-'incher's cohorts. If the edge in line play was Tech's, it was slight. The deciding factor was lie play of the 'llama backfield. Iefensively, this backfield compensated for any difference in play which might have occurred in the line. Offensively, it was arsenic, particularly Brown.

Masterful Interference. flats off to Alabama's interference. They are past masters at the art 'f rutting down. Be it Brown, Hubert, Clillis or Caldwell, carrying the ball, his fellow backfield men would certainly pave the way for him. Alabama followed the ball constantly.

Where the ball was, there you would finM a flury of Crimson jersies. All these factors, either directly or indirectly, contributed to giving Alabama its touchdown. Tech passed up a masterful opportunity in the first half to score. Four successive first downs carried the ball from Tech's 2i)-yard line to Alabama's photographer, one of Alabama's forward passts Hubert, Alabama's outstanding star, the ball the air just atter rloward Bulldogs Hold 'BAMA'S INDOMITABLE SPIRIT JOVIAL CROWD CELEBRATES VICTORY THRILLS CAPSTONE ALUMNI Is Scored 2nd Champaign, October 24. (By the Associated Press.) Mich igan, learning about Fed Grange in 1924, presented Benny Friedman, the Wolverines' point-scoring- ace, to Illinois today, to square accounts for the disastrous rout of a year ago.

In one of the greatest football games of the western conference cham pionship, Michigan defeated Illinois 3 to while 07.000 spectators, a record-breaking homecoming crowd, gazed down on the specta.le from-Illinois' magnificent $2,000,000 memorial stadium. By today's victory Michigan emerges an overwhelming favorite to win the 1925 championship of the western conference and the battling AVolverines still are boasting of a goal line uncrossed this season. The Wolverines, humiliated by the 30-to-14 defeat of a year ago. achieved their victory near the finish of the second period when Friedman. Yost's star quarterback, booted a field goal at a difficult angle from the 24-yard line after he and his teammates had advanced the ball from midfield.

The Wolverines got possession of the ball when Oosterbaan intercepted Britton'a pass. Friedman started a triple pass that was largely responsible for the gain that enabled him to be in position to boot the goaL From behind his own line of scrimmage Friedman passed to Babcock, who in turn handed the oval to Gregory. The play was so deceptive that the bewildered lllini did not know for the instant where the ball was. Gregory sprinted 13 yards around left end. running to Illinois' 10-yard line before he was stopped.

Friedman slammed into center without gain. Molenda, however, picked! up four vards through center, taking the ball to Illinois' 15-yard line. On the next play Gregory lost a half yard iprin? to smash through right tackle. and the Friedman dropped back for his game-winning field goal. BUCKNELL BEATS GEORGETOWN, 3-2 Washington.

October 24. VP) Bucknell stopped Georgetown university's football team here today, 3 tp 2 in a game played in a driving rain which converted the field into a sea of mud and water. Fumbling was frequent and neither side could got a sustained charge under way because of the heavy going. A fumble by M.

That was a mighty roar that went up on Peachtree street Saturday night when some thousands of University of Alabama football rooters celt, brated that heart-stirring victory out there on Grant field when the Crimson Tiders marched up the field and down again ending in a 7-to-0 the other member of Alabama's it lett Huoerts nanas. 7 to 6 Victory noble Auburn line held. Tinklepaugh tried and failed.

Tinklepaugh tried and lost a vard and the moments of anxiety were over. Green kicked the hall to Auburn's 20-yard line. The Bulldog was undaunted and again tried to pass the ball to victory, but the aerial attack failed. On the fourth down Billy Bancroft, crippled earlier in the game, hobbled to his backfield position and made the last desperate effort to score from placement. The try was without avail.

It was an Auburn victory, won in one of the hardest fights ever staged on Drake field. In the ranks of the Howard Bulldog Bancroft. Tinklepaugh and Lollar in the backfield and Spicer, left guard, deserve the praise of the greatest. Buck Spinfcs and Batch Ollinger claim the spotlight the forward wall.

It was a great victory for the University of Alabama over a great and worthy rival and was wou in honor and in fair gage of battle.

It was a victory to cheer the younger men of the old Varsity who don't recall the days when Alabama was struggling along in parlous football days and it was a victory to warm the breasts of the old boys who do remember them.

It stopped every play sent toward it. The ends snagged Beece and other Vandy ground gainers before they could reach the line of scrimmage. The most, powerful plunges were pushed back with apparent ease. The forwards were eternally after the Commodore passers and practically every toss was so rushed as to spoil its effectiveness.

A dropkick from the 13-yard line in the early stages of the game h.f Underwood, a Tarheel back, gave the University of Xorth Carolina a three-ooint margin that the Mercer Bears fought desperately through three quarters to overcome, but their heroic eftrts were of no avail. "Phoney" Stith, a fleet-footed sophomore, was a constant threat against the Tarheels. IBs flashy ppurts of speed placed the Carolinians on the defense too much make it at all pleasant.

In the first quarttr after Xorth Carolina scored Smith Vok the kick off on the return for a t-yard gain. A few minutes later Smitti was injured and- forced temporarily from the game. Returning in the last quarter Smith brightened Mercer's hopes with long end runs and accurate huding of passes. His steady advances of the ball brought the crowd to the'-feet with urgent pleading for a score but the Bear attack was too late and tonight the Tarheels are returning home with a victory. The game was the best played! in the new Centennial stadium.

Both teams battled a strong defensive game.

Coming from behind in the second half the Auburn Tiger nosed out a victory over the Howard Bulldog with a measley margin of a 7-to-G score in the annual game between the two teams.

It was the trusty toe of Billy Bancroft, Howard's quarterback, in the second half that counted six points for the Bulldogs while Auburn had failed to register, it was these two field goals that cast a gloom among the host of Auburn followers, grouped around Drake field. These rabid supporters forgot that Auburn was playing little Howard college, which one time stood by for large scores at the hands of the Auburn Tiger. It was a change of scene; these same Orange and Blue followers existed through the breathless moments hoping that their favorite Tiger could emerge from the hotly-contested field with any bind And the tirst nait was distinct victory for the iJaptist. 10 po back to the first quarter the deal l. -1 1.

It was a crippled Tiger that seam- pered about the lot while Bancroft kicked two ttld goals that threatened to acclaim Bulldog victory, but it was the best Koward college football team to ever visit the Auburn campus. As the first chance loomed for Bancroft's try at goal Howard did everything nut score a touchdown. The ball had been advanced by How nrd to Auburn's nine-yard line. Here Bancroft was stopped by Garnr on nn end run that failed to gain as Tinklepaugh got four yards on tVe third down.

Bancroft Kicks Two. With onlv five yards to go Bancroft kicked his first field goal squarely through the uprights and the second three-pointer was garnered from tbe 15-vard line near the end of the first half. As the Auburn team came on the field for the second half Green had been added to tbe backfield. The first few minutes of the third period were featured by threats by both teams. Auburn finally procured possession of the ball on the receipt of a kick on Howard's 42-yard line.

A beautiful nass. Tuxworth to Green, netted 22 vards. Salter failed and Green failed. Tuxworth to Ollinger, on a pass put tbe ball on Howard's nine-yard line. The task of carrying the ball fell to tbe lot of Salter who hit left tackle for nine yards and a touchdown.

Williams, added the winning point of the game after the touchdown. There were about five minutes to play. The score stood Auburn seven. Howard fix. A pall of darkness had enveloped the battling elevens, a downpour of rain was falling.

Tinklepaugh made an advance of SO yards to Auburn's five-yard line. On the next plav Auburn was penalized and the ball rested on Auburn's two-foot line and it was first down for the Bulldogs. The stands turned into a scene of chaos. The dashirig freshmen, sophomore, junior and senior, and tbe miscellaneous group of football fans changed into a mass of grizzled and nccrepid onlookers in the twinkling of an eye. Tigers Held.
