Ties Sewanee as Vanderbilt Defeats Longhorns Tennessee Team Fails Third Time To Beat Aggies Strongest Squad Ever Sent to Texas From Mountain School Held to Knotted Score Bj JINX TICKER Trill uno Sports Editor DALLAS, Oct. 10. From the mountain top near Nashville, where the University of the south, better known to the sportsmen as Sftwanee, is located, to the Fair Park stadium of Dallas, is just about TOO miles.

When the purp 1 e-robed Seivanee Tigers arrive home tomorrow night, they will have traveled in the lust three rears just aliottt 4200 miles for the specific purpose of winning a football game from A. and M. college of Texas, And as they return to the mountain for the third time after the long trek to Texas, their objective will still be unaftalned. Most Powerful in History This year Coach Bennett brought to Texas the most powerful squad that has ever been sent from the mountain-top to Texas soil, hut this afternoon with ideal football weather prevailing. with just enough snap to the slightly northerly wind to give zest to the game, the Sewanee Tigers, outclassing the Aggies in almost every department of the game save sheer fight, could gather from the two hours of thrills and heartaches only a 6-to-ft draw.

This afternoon the Tigers from Tennessee, where the fighting spirit is a famed gridiron tradition, with one of the greatest plunging, running and passing games ever seen on the local greensward, could not dent that Maroon wall when a gain of a yard or two meant victory. With a total gain of more than 300 yards for the day. 120 of which came from completed passes, the Tigers could score only one touchdown. Seventeen first downs, a number of which were runs of over 20 yards, failed to produce more than one touchdown. The drop-kick after touchdown, which would have meant victory had it gone between the was a failure when the charged through, forcing Mahoney to hurry his kick.

Five more attempted field goals, any one of which, if successful, would have meant victory, three of which were from within the 25-yard line, were unsuccessful, due lurgey to the same reason. Aggies Outplayed The Aggies were outplayed as we have never. before seen an Aggie team coached by D. X. Bible outplayed, They were completely bewildered by one pass which the.

used successfully three times, a play so old that it was new to most of the fans present, and certainly new to the Aggie team. Mahoney, the big plunging fullback, who was the sensation of the game today, despite spectacular running at times by his fellow back. Jack was the boy who usually carried the ball on this unique play. Barker did the passing, a short pass generally to the end, but tho end instead of running with the ball would make a backward pass to Mahoney just before being tackled. It was not necessary that Mahoney catch the ball and on two occasions he did not, scooping the ball from the ground for gains of from 20 to 30 yards, hut on the occasion that he did catch the ball, he received the backward pass from Gooch after Gooch had received the forward from Barker, and ran 26 yards to the 1-yard line, from which position Mahoney plunged over center for the first and only touchdown of the game.

While Gibbon swept over the weak Aggie left side for material gains in the second quarter seriously threatening the Aggie goal line and continued his sensational work in the second half, the forward pass, that ever- dangerous offensive weapon, was manipulated by the Tigers in such manner as to only keep the Farmers on the defensive, when limy did not want to piay defensive football. But it was ihts aerial threat which kept the gies with their back to the waji throughout the fourth quarter to avert defeat, which certainly seemed imminent. Without that, pass and the brilliant use of it, tho Tigers would more than likely been forced to carry back to far-away Tennessee another defeat, the third successive defeat at the hands of the despite their fine play of the afternoon. For today when a drive was needed for a score, the Aggies somehow in some manner would become inspired and perform defensive achievements so Herculean in nature that they bordered on the sensational and It is pot usually defensive football which gives the greatest thrills. Throughout the engagement of the afternoon the Aggies, although they had the advantage of the play in tin first quarter, made only four first downs, and none of these first downs were responsible for the touchdown which staved off defeat The game had come to the middle of the second period, and up until this moment had been a punting duel with both Wilson of the Aggies and Mahoney of the Tigers Btur-ing.

Though Mahoney had been forced to kick on severa! occasions between tho arms of anxious Aggio forwards, Wilson standing near tito enter of the field, kicked across the Sewanee goal line, and the ball whs put in play on the Tiger line Barker, fleet-footed Sewanee quarterback, who completely smothered today by the aggrcusive Farmers, failed to gain, and the powerful Powers, true fa bis name, for he was power indeed, failed to gain over the Aggie line. Mahoney dropped back for a punt, time Price, alert Aggie encl. can bouncing through, and in a twinkling he Was upon Mtthqr.ey completely blocking the kick, tuul tie ball hounded on across the line. Mahoney dived for if as did Price, both missed it and then Norman Dan shy, former Bryan high school star a headlong- dive, clutching the oval secured for the first touchdown of tip: yamo to a figi.t.n frenzy the Tigers, not. one, but of them, squished through to block the nt- t.mpted placo kn-k by for the print after touchdown, Fans Pat in Uproar This blocked punt and blocked placa kick were merely the beginning of ii vcrii of thrills, wltn-h kept 90ft(i fans, witnessing one of the.

Missouri Tigers Beat Cornhuskers Baylor Cubs In 23-to-13 Victory From Nebraska Over Wesleyans Victors Over Illinois of Week Ago Humbled by Sophomore's Run and Field Goal By The Associated Press COLUMBIA, Oct.

Missouri today furnished the biggest upset of the Missouri Valley football season to date when they romped over the Nebraska Fornhuskers. 9 to 6. The highly touted Nebraskans, victors over Illinois last week, went into the game heavy favorites and early In the first period smashed their way through the Missouri line for touchdown, Tho kick for goal was blocked. The Cornhuskers held their 6 to 0 advantage until tho third period when Missouri, sophomore, proved himself a hero, grabbing a pass and ing across the Nebraska line. Captain Whiteman's place kick added an ettra point and the score was Missouri 7 Nebraska 6.

Don Kkherson, big Tiger lineman and noted weight heaver, added two points in the final period when he broke through the Nebraska line to tackle a Cornhusker behind the bra ska goal. Aerial Attack of Visitors Threatens Lead in the Last Two Quarters of Contest Trinity Defeats Rice Owls 13 to 0 To Upset Dope Waxahaehie Eleven Dutch a rges Houston Team in Every Department as Feathers Fly By The Associated Press HOUSTON, Oct blue and gray, were torn from the hide of the Rice Owl at'the institute field Saturday afternoon by a ferocious Tiger from Trinity university and when the shot sounded the end of the carnage, Coach Barry Jung- aleers were found the, winner, 13 to 0. It was a doleful day for tho young hopefuls of Coach Hetaman. Almost in every scrimmage the invaders were outcharging ihe Rico line, the Owl interference leaked badly, the Owls were missing tackles both in tho open and on the lino of scrimmage in almost every department of the game the Owls were playing poorly, while the Tigers were giving a fine demonstration of excellent football. Scores In Third Quarter The only scoring of the game was done in the third quarter, when the Tigers put over thoir two touchdowns.

Early in the period an exchange of punts gave the Owls the Pali on their 86-yard line. A line thrust was thwarted by the alert and vigorous Tiger forwards and Heavy Underwood called for a pass. Captain Manning, who was tho outstanding player of the field, in- terct pted the ball as it passed the scrimmage line. On a delayed buck, Whittaker knifed through the right wing of the Owl line, evaded the secondary defense, and dashed 30 yards to the Ow 3-yard line, where he was downed by Hoculi. Schley plunged over for the Lower failed to kick the extra point.

Schley Pulls Sensation Later In the period with the ball on 40-yard line, Underwood punted. Manning charged through and partially blocked the boot, the bail caroming weakly over the line. Schley, the Tiger fullback, grabbed the oval at midfield, headed diagonally across the field toward a far corner of the gridiron, and by a sensational sprint reached his cherished destination. In the final the Owls began a passing game which carried the ball to within five yards of the goal, but a pass was grounded behind the Trin- I ity goal and the ball was given the guests on thoir 20-ynrd line just as the game was over.

Blake let I the White Sox down with five jack Jones and Steer Star Played at Temple In 1922 at the beginning of the in- teracholastic season Jack Jones and i Mack Saxon were playing side by side i In the Temple backfleld. Both were sensational offensive stars, but both were more sensational defensive stars, Saxon is playing his first year of eon- i ference football this year due to the fact that in 1938 he played with A us- tin college. Jones is playing his sec-j ond year with Baylor. And there is much doubt as to the better man. Saxon Is more susceptible to injury, but he has shown up better in offensive work at Texas than Jones has at Baylor, the latter being such a valuable defensive asset that Bridges has hesitated to use him an offensive weapon for fear of losing him due to injuries.

It was the same with B. J. Pittman, the great defensive Baylor star, who has been replaced by Jones. It was seldom that Pittman was allowed to carry the ball and he closed his athletic career at Baylor 1922 without ever receiving the credit that he really deserved.

C. gridders go to Temple arid Coach H. D. eleven takes on Meridian college of Meridian in this city.

The Hillsboro high school hns won two games out of two thus far, but they have not encountered much opposition in either contest.

new comet flamed into prominence to rival Red Grange for conference gridiron glory today as Ohio State and Chicago fought to a 3 to 3 tie before a colorful crowd of 35,000 spectators that Jammed Stagg field today. The new star Is Elmer Marek of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, a budding young cyclone of 170 playing left halfback for Ohio State. Playing his first game for the Buckeyes he revealed himself as a hard driving, elusive halfback who refuses to be stopped unless six or eight 011 top of him. Marek as near as can be accurately figured participated in 12 plays today for a total gain of 45 yards, not including a thrilling 25-yard run which was nullified by a penalty. The Buckeyes, revealing the breathtaking and stunning blows that made them famous a few years back, clearly outplayed the Maroons in three of the four periods today and were only prevented on two occasions from scoring the points that meant victory because the Maroons rose to superior power defense on the defense.

The Buckeyes scored their field goal in the first period and the Maroons did not come back to count until the third period in which session they were superior.
