Some of the boys in the line were going through their work in dummy scrimmage in a rather- half-hearted man- ner." Coach Wade admitted he had not attempted to "fire up" the players for the contest and expressed the belief they will be in top form by game time. "All we want is to play our best game, win or lose."

Why I've seen both teams play this year and I'm at a loss as to the outcome, so how can those who have seen neither eleven function know?" Concerning his defense against passes, Coach Wade said he was well satisfied. "We bad touchdowns scored on ns by Tennes- see and Vanderbilt through passes, but that was early in the season.

As far as that goes I have never seen a greater passer than Dodd. of Tennessee. Folks have said I don't have much of, a pass defense, but we're satis- fied." In the meantime the Washington State Cougars took their usual dose of fundamentals and ended by running signals of a few new plays, including some pass formations Alabama plans a light series of practice sessions until game time, while the Cougars probably will get two rather strenuous drills Monday and Tuesday.
