Athens, October 16. Exhibiting superiority in every department of the game, Furman's Purple Hurricane out-rushed end out-cruthed the Georgia Bulldogs here this afternoon, winning 14 to 7. It was a realizing of dreams held by Furman in all the years of football history between the two institutions. Coach Bill Laval, who has piloted the Hurricane for the past 11 years, had met the Bulldogs on five previous occasions, and his team had been lowered in defeat. Bitter, it was, twice.

Before the game Coach Laval had boasted a team of more potential strength than the teams of old nil this came to pass this afternoon. The Hurricane had risen to heights of which they were capable and were not to be stopped, try us hard as the Bulldogs may. It's an old, old Btory, for the Georgians. All the praise must go to Furman. Not only did they show flashes but from the beginning of the game exhibited football of the highest class, maintaining this throughout the afternoon.

Furman's play was a tribute to (loach Laval. Everything was lacking when the Bulldogs'play is considered. All week the lied and Black, had been going about their tasks with a diffident oir, and had not regarded the Hurricane for its worth. The line play of the lied and Black was the most miserable Been here in many a day, and the secondary defense caused no inspiration in the least. Georgia lacked punch and drive and other requisites for a smooth machine.

Seeming appearances were that the locals were awaiting to be toppled over, and the medicine administered by Furman might be bard to take, though just it is. Today's game will eithfr make or break the season for the Bulldogs, and let ns hope for ft jrajMss- r- "sv4 v-we. WW NOTRE DAME BEATS PENN MERCER BEATS 'GATORS WITH 6-TO-3 SCORE STATE, 28 TO 0 BY CLIFF WHEATLEY. Th deadliest forward passing (ame eter launched by any team on Grant field in the history of football in Atlanta Saturday brought victory to the University of Alabama over Georgia Tech, gave close to 20,000 spectators sufficient thrills to last for the rest of the season and provided ample proof that the Crimson Tide shows no intention of ebbing. The score was 21 to 0.

That it was not larger is due to the fact that Tech played its best defensive game of the campaign to date. Th masterly work of lloyt Wins-let was the thoroughly efficient sor which the Crimson usp1 iu removing the Yellow Jnekets from any additional ronsiileratiou for the Krid-iron fhamiiionshin of the southern onference. It will be Hoyt Wins-l'tt's masterly work which will carry Alabama to nnother sectional title, unb'ss the University of Georgia succeeds where the Jackets failed. And what a job that is going to he! low utterly impossible the as-tinnient seems, an these lines are be-ing written, a few minutes after AVinslett'a accurate throwing of for-vanl jiasses had brought Tech to destruction; a few minutes after his tremendous speed and power on run-liins plays had kept thousands of devotee of the game wondering just how big the final score was going to be! The victory belongs to Winslett, just as surely as the pun will shine in Atlanta some time next week. lis comrades played brilliantly, too, behind the splendid inspiration this lad Wiuslett provided, but he was the big gun that found the range of Tech's battlements and blew them to pieces.

Winslrtt's Day- It. was AVinsIett's day, and he figured, in everything that Alabama did correctly and had nothing to do with ihe few occasions when the Crimson erred. He figured in every swre; he was the one ball-toter Tech's gallant defense against running plays could not stop; he was the roan whose marvelous work will be remembered years from now, long after all of us have forgotten the score of the game. lloyt Winslett it was whose forward pass to Halfback Melvin Vines in the first quarter netted 12 yards nd Alabama's initial touchdown! Hoyt AVinMett it was whose forward pass to Halfback Archie Taylor in the next quarter brought yards find another touchdown to Alabama! Hoyt Winsleft it was whose forward pass to Halfback Tolhert Iirown in the final ieriod carried the ball to Tech's three-yard line, from which 7-int it was carried over by Capt. Kmile Barnes! Hoyt AYinsMt it was who gained more ground on running plays than anybody else on Grant field Saturday! Hoyt Winslett isn't even billed as a backfield man.

On the books and in the lineup he is listed as "number Alabama's left end. If he had stayed at left end Saturday, there would have been a grand chance for the Jackets. If lie stays at Wt end against Georgia this coming Thanksgiving day. there will be a grand chance for the Bulldogs. But we fear Winslett isn't going to be at left end, except ia spare moments, against the Macon, Otctober 10.

OF) Mercer university's football team defeated the Florida 'Gators here this afternoon before a big crowd in the Centennial stadium, by a score of 6 to 3. Neither side was able to score in the last half. In the final rcriod Mercer began a drive for the Florida oal and on two occasions was within 3 yards of a touchdown when the 'Gators held for down each time. The game was featured with, brilliant passing by Bowyer in the second period by long runs by Phoney Smith and Johnson, of the Bears, who also rlunged through the line in the third and fourth quarters for good gains on straight football. vine lineup Pos BY II.

G. II0USER. South Bend, October 16. A crippled but fighting Xotre Dame eleven plugged its way to a 20 to 0 victory over Tenn State here this afternoon in the feature clash of the midwest. Mixing straight football with an aerial attack, the Irish presented a dogged offensive that netted one touchdown each quarter.

Penn seemed unable to get its offensive unlinabered and never seriously threatened to score. For the most part Penn State was on the defensive, being forced to punt after a few vain attempts1 to pierce the Irish forward wall. The game marked the first appear-ice of a Penn State team at Xotre fame and cleared away the scoreless tie that resulted when the two teams met in the east last rear. Although Knute Kockne's team had been left with several gaping holes through a long list of injured rlayers, the Irih showed no effects of the handicap on the field. As usual Rockne drew heavily on his reserves, sending in squads of relief men at a time to keep a fresh eleven in the play.

Johnny Xiemie. a sophomore halfback, was the star performer for the contributing one touchdown, two kicks for the extra points, and a dozen or more long runs. "Cowboy" Green was the outstanding star for the Xittany Lions, but his best" efforts or.ly brought his team two first downs. Xotre Dame scored its first touchdown in the first few minutes of plav. On the kick-off O'Boyle sent the ball back of the Tenn goal line and it was returned to the Irish on a punt.

Two line smashes and a "o-yard pass from Parisen. and O'Boyle brought in the counter. O'Boyle kicked goal for the extra point. FLORIDA (3) Sarra (c) J. Tucker (lemmons r.

Coordination in the Furman back-field with the line hurling itself terrifically agahist the Bulldogs, along with excellent generalship, were features of the Hurricane this afternoon. Generalship was a big factor in their showing. Rawl handled himself in a most pleasing style. The Bulldogs never threatened in the first half, only once did they invade Furman territory, and this time reached the 4S-ynrd mark. Furman's edge was wide in this half, for various reasons, the Bulldogs not pulling their forces together.

This first quarter was featured by exchanges of punts, with neither t'ani creating an appreciable stir. Both teams had registered only one first down and were fighting an even battle.

Following the Lick-off the Bulldogs annexed two first downs, the drive providing high hopes for Red and Black supporters. These were blasted as Blount intercepted a Georgia pass onlv to have Hollis repeat for tne Bulldogs a moment later. Then came an exchange of punts and Bulldog hopes were revived as Sherlock made a first down on his own 43-yard line. A forward pass from Morton to Sherlcck afforded a first down and Hollis punched through the Hurricane line for another first down on Furman's 23-yard line.

Sherlock galloped aronnd left end for 10 yards and a first down. Morton made two and Sherlock added five yards at right tackle. Three yards were needed and Hollis decided in favor of a forward pass as the weapon to "oppose the Hurricane. His toss to Morton was intercepted by Schneider, who made a beautiful run of 97 yards through the entire Georgia team for touchdown. Pipkins L.

Tennessee Wins Over Maryville HAWKINS BV DICK BY FRANK GETTY. Yale Bowl. New Haven. October 16. The Yale Bulldog found wings today, and took the air to score an impressive triumph over the vaunted Dartmouth eleven by the score of 14 to 7.

Tech's interference was working, and there were those who nodded their heads and said to themselves that the work of stemming the tide had began.

Three plays later, Caldwell intercepted a forward pass on Alabama's 40-yard line, and the fans prepared to see 'Earn do its stuff. Winslett Gets Range. But Alabama wasn't ready. At least Mr. Winslett had not figured out the range and after a forward pass, Winsett to Enis, had been knocked down.

Clad in the sackiest of sackcloth and the ashiest of ashes, we sit at the old "mill" tonight and admit that our dope is not dope at all but patei.i medicine when it is applied to such elements as the Tornado and the Wave.

We figured the game Saturday was anybody's ball game and it was but that anybody was Alabama from the first kickoff. Tech was cleanly and fairly defeated by a team which was just three touchdowns better in every phase of the game. The Crimson Tide flowed across the big stadium Saturday with an irresistible force which could no more be stopped than the tides of nature. The forward passing was deadly. It was not perfect.

Four passes were completed out of ten tried, but threeof these tosses either meant touchdowns or they placed the tall where 2 touchdown was inevitable. That is deadly patting. But unlike Tulane, Alabama did not have to rely on the aerial attack. They could run the ends with great effective coming basketball season. Such wasj swept the invaders" from their feet.
