THE DECATUR DAILY, SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 18, 1935 27-7 mm .3 As -Vols Slaughter 11 Miss 'S Smith 1 HIL Findings Thompson, Vann Lead Tech Fast Battling Tide 27 to 0 Phillip Kyi Florida To Sponsor Miami Request For Entrance In SEC GAINESVILLE, Nov. 17 UB The University of Florida will ask the Southeastern Conference to on Miami's entrance into the conference at the annual meeting of the SEC in December, it was learned today. Bob Woodruff, athletic director and head coach at Florida, stated that Florilda has sponsored Miami Rebels Get 1st Points But Can't Stop Comeback I Sophomore Leads Tennessee Charge Past Mississippi By ESCAR THOMPSON KNOXVILLE, Nov. 17 II) With fullback Carl Smith giving Tennessee's bowl bound express its momentum, the top ranked Vols rolled past Mississippi, 27-7, today to remain unbeaten and untied. A partisan throng of 42,000 saw the Vols yield a touchdown to the fired- up Rebels on the opening kickoff and strike back viciously by only 7-0.

With quarterback Bobby Smith and halfback Jim Bowdoin showing the way, fired up Alabama charged to the Tech eight early in the third quarter. At this point, a shocking upset was not an impossibility. But Don Stephenson, Tech's defensive giant at center, snared a Smith pass at his six and hauled it to Tech's 42. This launched Tech's clinching touchdown drive, directed by Mitchell in his one brief scrimmage appearance. He COLLEGE SCORES Br THE ASSOCIATED FKEM EAST Pens St.

Halfback Paul Rotenberry fumbled a handoff from Vann, picked it up and gave it to Thompson who followed superb blocking for the score with one second left in the third quarter. Vann, turning the quarterback sneak into a potent attack weapon, sent Tech 61 yards in 10 plays for the third score. He tore off the last 12 yards on a quarterback option, shook off five would be tacklers and lunged across the goal line. Sophomore halfback Joe Delany scored Tech's last touchdown on a pass from Vann. The play covered 21 yards and followed successful passes from 'the resourceful Vann to Delany and Flowers.

Yearning for a sixth consecutive bowl trip, Tech rebounded sluggishly from last week's loss to Tennessee. The Yellow Jackets, ranked fourth nationally in the Associated Press poll, fumbled away two scoring chances in the first half and led at intermission By VERNON BUTLER ATLANTA, Nov. 17 (1 Toppy Vann and Jimmy Thompson, two of America's best second-string backs, fired Georgia-Tech to a 27-0 football victory over Alabama today and took the Yellow Jackets another step toward their sixth straight bowl bid. Vann, filling in for ailing Wade Mitchell, and the tiny, 148-pound Thompson, replacing wounded George Volkert, scored a touchdown apiece as Tech captured its fifth Southeastern Conference victory and its seventh in eight games. A crowd of 38,888 saw the swarthy Vann cooly engineer a 30-yard scoring drive in the waning seconds of the first quarter against a fired up Alabama defense.

The score came on an eight yard pass from Stan Flowers to Johnny Menger. Thompson, a Bessemer, product who saves his best games for Alabama, got the second on a 48-yard scamper that was the wierdest play seen here TVC Didn't Fare Well Outside Loop It's downright ironic that the Butler Rebels should be the Tennessee Valley Conference Champions, and get the nod over Florence (a team that ripped the Rebs to shreds only a couple of weeks ago 40-0) but that's the way the football bounces. Florence couldn't make it over the long haul, although the Jackets did have a fine team. They dropped their cookies by losing to Decatur, and being tied Friday night by Jasper. It's unusual too that there were five other teams in the conference with better overall won-lost records than the Rebs, who justly deserved the title.

Butler played strong teams outside the conference as well as in. The outside teams were responsible for three of the four dents put in the Rebel armor. Gadsden, Emma Sansom, and Etowah County enthusiastically walloped the Huntsville crew. The Rebs won their decisions over Cullman, Deshler, Decatur, Athens, Sheffield, Huntsville. All in all it wasn't a good year for the conference when you look at the number of times non-conference clubs served out big lumps to the TVC'ers.

TVC teams had a total of 17 victories over clubs outside the fold. However, non-TVC teams defeated conference members a total of 19 times. Four games ended In ties. The Conference this season was an interesting mer- ry-go-round type race with the scramble carrying right down to the wire, and the championship undecided until the last major week of play (There are only two TVC games left: Cullman at Hartselle Tuesday night, and Sheffield at Coffee Thanksgiving). Looking to the future all indications are that the TVC will be even more interesting next season.

A great share of the talent on hand this season will be on hand in 1957, and this plus the fact that beginning next season each team must play at least six conference games to be eligible for the title, will make for a real pier six brawl all the way through. in its request for membership for the past two years and hopes that the SEC will approve Miami as a conference member, beginning 1957. Nevfon Guides Greenies Past Vanderbilt 13-6 NASHVILLE, Nov. 17 OB Little Gene Newton quarter-backed a flashy bunch of Tulane ball-carriers to an upset 13-6 victory over Vanderbilt today in a South-eastern conference game played in ideal football weather. The 160-pound junior from Shreveport, pitched out to halfback Claude Mason from the one for the initial Tulane touchdown in the second quarter and set up the second marker with a screen pass to Mason in the third period.

Southern Win Streak Snapped By Florida State 20-19 TALLAHASSEE, Nov. 17 UP Johnny Sheppard, first string baseball catcher who does nothing in football but placekick, booted the ball through the uprights after a fourth period touchdown to give Florida State a 20-19 victory over Mississippi Southern today.

The narrow defeat brought an abrupt end to a 14-game winning streak for Mississippi Southern. The game-winning conversion was the second of the contest for Sheppard and his 17th in 18 at tempts this season. The Southerners missed a chance to tie when quarterback Bobby Hughes fumbled a high pass from center on a conversion attempt after the Southerners had scored with less than three minutes to play.

A Mississippi editor, dissatisfied with high school football officiating in his area of coverage, decided to do something about it.

He arranged to have moving pictures made of the various games, and then when the officials pulled a bo-bo, he would run a picture of the play in question, pointing out the error in the newspaper. Naturally this grated on probably the nerves of every high school football official in the state. Secretly, and with probably good reason, they would have been glad to see the scribe get his come-uppance. Anyway to make a long story short the sports editor finally suggested (in print of course) if some kind of officiating clinic for the Blind Toms wouldn't be advisable. Apparently that did it Last week a head linesman clobbered the guy after the conclusion of a high school game, breaking his glasses, and inflicting other damage upon his person.

We know that officiating sports contests isn't an art in which one can be 100 per cent accurate. Holding them up to public ridicule just isn't the thing to do. The way we look at it the officials have enough on their hands in calling the games, and putting up with the insults of a certain class of fandom, without having to be the target of constant newspaper jibes. Freeman Stars As Ft. Jackson Takes 27-9 Win Over USMC By MERCER BAILEY COLUMBUS, Nov.

17 I Auburn whipped Georgia 20-0 in i Southeastern Conference Both teams were tackline hard yards, Georgia 72. Abig general melee developed late in the first period on the first play after Georgia quarterback end Jerry Wilson. Hearn was injured and saw no more action. But 28,000 fans saw more action and soon. On the next play a Ken Sehulte pass intercepted at the Auburn five by Jimmy Cook a fist fight between Georgia's Harold Dean Cook and Auburn's Baker quickly drew both squads to mjd-field.

Coaches, police and the Star Spangled Banner finally restored order. Both teams were charged with a personal fouL threat came when the Bulldoss marched 40 yards with the open ing kickoff to the Auburn 29. But on fourth down, with one yard needed for a first down fullback Knox Culpepper was thrown for a yard loss by Tubbs and tackle Ben Preston. On the first play, Tubbs faked Lorino and unloosed a long throw to Phillips, wide open at the Georgia 35. The lanky end, who won an award as the game's outstanding player, loped across untouched with only 5 minutes, 35 seconds elapsed.

Georgia couldn't move after the kickoff and Auburn set up shop at its 30 again after Hearn's punt and a 15-yard holding penalty against the Plainsmen. Lorino, Bobby Hoppe and Jim Walsh cracked off most of the ground yardage and the Tubbs-Phillips combo contributed 12 in a drive that carried 70 yards in 8 plays, with fullback Billy Atkins going the final 17. A six yard Tubbs-to-Phillips pass was the payoff punch on a 49 yard march for Auburn's third period score. Hoppe contributed a beautiful 17 yard burst inside tackle which carried to the 12. A matter of seconds cost Au- kicked Tech first extra point.

Alabama made it close for 30 minutes when center Benny Demp-sey -and guard Billy Rains, two of the Crimsons' sophomore stars, led a charging line that blunted much of Tech's heralded ground offense.

Duke Rips Out 26-0 Win Over Deacons In Mud WINSTON SALEM, N.C., Nov. 17 UP Duke had the superior mudders today as it sloshed over a rain-soaked field to whip Wake Forest 26-0 in an Atlantic Coast Conference football game that saw the losers fumble the ball away eight times.

The heavy-going in a cold rain didn't seem to bother George Dutrow, Duke's sophomore halfback from Washington, D.C., who scored the first two touchdowns and set up the third as the Blue Devils tallied in every quarter to level their season's record 4-4-1. Dutrow sped 52 yards around end halfway through the first period on the game's longest run for the first touchdown. In the second quarter he climaxed an 88-yard Duke drive, by ploughing over tackle for the last 10 yards. South Carolina Gets 13-0 Win Over Terps COLUMBIA, S. Nov.

It was the worst defeat suffered by Colgate in the 57 years of rivalry between the neighboring universities. Brown splattered Syracuse's individual season rushing record of 805 yards set by George Davis in 1949 when the 212-pound Negro, playing his last regular season college game, scored his second touchdown on a 15-yard off-tackle run in the first period. That brought his season total to i.819 yards in eight games, compared to nine games Davis had in 1949.

Brown continued to pile jup yardage during the game. test with a 4-0 season mark and a record-breaking string of 17 conference victories. But the de fending conference champions, shooting for an unprecedented third straight undisputed title were licked by an Iowa squad that refused to lose.

Decatur really got going after the Butler game way back on Oct 5, and was more than a match for all of its last six opponents with the exception of an underrated Huntsville team. The Raiders reached their zenith with a 27-22 victory over Florence on Nov. 2. That win knocked Coffee out of the TVC championship in all probability.

Not since 1922 has an Iowa team shared the title and never has Iowa shown in a bowl game.
