Oct. 19 (ft The red wave of Cornell, battered down to the merest ripple in recent years, rose again in Its old might Saturday to sweep over Princeton and warn the football world that a new pigskin storm is brewing on the shores of Lake Cayuga. With a fine attack, a pass defense explained to the writer Saturday.

Parker has too much else to do beside coaxing a hall along the air line with his toe, so henceforth he will Just do his passing and ground-gaining leave the kicking to the pessimists in the stands and to Bill Schwartz and Gibson on the field.

me hearties, we are akin to one Thomas in a certain respect we have our doubt. All seuson long this expert and that expert has been writing In the public prints about the latent strength and possibilities of the Auhurn team. Well, all we have to say while doing a little rejoining i that it looks like the further the 1929 season pro wide. However, it was the only touchdown point the winner failed to convert, for all of five other attempts were good. Parker Goee Over Parker accounted for- a second Vandy touchdown curly in the second quarter, in fact on the first play of the period.

An Auburn fumble was largely to blame, though. Forced to kick near the end of the first quarter. Vandy turned it to excellent advantage when Jones, Auhurn safety man, fumbled the punt and Joe Scheffer. Commodore end. recovered on Auburns 15.

Leonard got four yards as the quarter closed and on resumption of play Parker raced 11 yards around his left end for the tally. A short lateral pass, Parker to Leonard, sent the latter across the line for the extra point, making It 33 to 0. Auburn took Vandys kickoff here and began what looked like a definite advance. After Crawford had returned the kickoff 21 yards to his own 33, Chappelle crashed through the line for 25 yards. At this point, Big Bill Schwartz broke through from his flank position and snared a short underhand pass that Crawford had intended for one of his own men.

Schwartz, with a clear field ahead, headed for home, with a 55-yard jaunt, putting him over. Parkers place kick for point ran the count to 20 for Vandy. Leonard Off Again Leonard and the air attack united in another Vandy score, right, on the heel of Schwartzs run. Auburn took Saturday and scored a quick in the first quarter.

The first time a Cornell eleven has turned that trick in 27 years. Back in the football dark ages of 1902, Princeton lost to Cornell to 5, but not since then. New Heroes Out of the victory rose new Cornell heroes that promise much for the future. A tall, limber sophomore, Miles Stevens, teamed in sensational fashion with Norman Scott, pile-driver of the big Red backfield. while Sam Wakeman, brilliant tackle and captain, played in a powerful line like a man inspired.

Auburn was exactly doubled, muking 11 to Vandy 22. Without any figures at hand, one would surmise that no Auburn team In recent years has advanced the ball a much against a team of Vandys caliber. Vandys Kicking Good Vanderbilts kicking nnd passing game was superb. With Parker playing less than a full half, the air route was not used a great deal, hut four tries out of eight were completed, gaining nearly lftO yards. In punting, three boots by Schwartz and Gibson averaged 41 yards, with Hchwnrtzs best boot, of about 61 yards, not being reckoned on account of his scoring the safety in Auburn favor.

With Leonard as the speed merchant, Parker to do the aerial stuff, nnd Mcllwalne, Thomas and Mc-Gaughey to do both ball carrying and blocking, the Commodores flashed a finely-balanced backfield. This does not take into account little Askew, Charlie Scheffer and others of the pony backs, who no doubt would do nobly with the first team blockers. Hatfield, Auburn's sophomore star, broke through the line for neat gains on occasion, while Chappelle, the Bir-i mingham boy, was fairly consistent for the Tigers. He probably gained more from scrimmage than any other Auburn man, although Crawford, who passed and punted and ran, was a leading light in whatever threat Auburn had to offer. Had he been assisted more by hi receivers.

Crawfords passing ability might very well have sent Auburn across the Vandy goal. The lineups and summary: Vanderbilt (41) Schwartz and J. Scheffer, ends: Lokey and Morehead, tackles; V.

Then there was the toe of Bill Schwarts the scintillating und untiring goalward go of the boy with the peculiar monicker, Mc-Gaughey, and lots of other things we could probably tell you about should the time, space and inclination permit. The game was so onesided and the score so lopsided that Mr. McGugin gave the lie to the old mans-in-humanlty-to-man gag in the second quarter. His boys were running up a score with all the abandon that a foolish bride can run up a charge account in some apparel academy, so ho pulled his entire team of first stringers and shot in his Blueherites meaning reserves, of course. Bands Parade The Vanderbilt band with its gold and black uniforms made a mighty pretty spectacle between halves and of course the Auburn Serenaders scored a tuba triumph as they marched hither and yon.

Yet, we Alabamians who know the glory that once was Auburn's has faded out of the picture completely, for while the bandsmen marched, the athletes did little in the marching line. Unless one imposes self-hypnotism there is no rift of blue to be seen in Auburns football horizon this year at least. You can dial them all you want to, but as the Britisher would say, "they are not there. Get out our morning walking breeches, Parkins, we are off to Sunday School. Last Minute Rally Gives Fordham Win Over Holy Cross, 7-0 NEW YORK.

Oct. 1 9 UP) A hard plunging Fordham eleven remained in the undefeated, untied class by ripping through Holy Cross forwards for an eleventh hour touchdown at the Polo Grounds Saturday to turn back the Purple by a score of 7 to 0. John a Fordham climax runner from Lawrence, gathered in a lateral pass from John Fisher, of Everett. in the closing moments of the final period, and stepped one yard across the goal -line for the winning score. Wisniewski place-kicked the seventh point.

Fordham was outplayed by Holy Cross until long after the fourth period had begun. credit whatever to Dan McGugln and his Commodore machine. As a matter of fact, if one goes into the analyzing business anent the Saturday game one perforce must say that the Commodores looked wonderfully powerful against a team that looked woefully weak. In other words, there could have been a happy medium to Saturdays entangling alliances or what have you. Say, had the Commodores triumphed over the Tiger from the Plains about 25 tc zero, one could have said that the Nashville boys displayed great offen sive power, but that they encountered an Auburn team that was improving ail along.

But, when you take into consider ation the fact that the Gold and Black blanketed the field with 41 points while Auburn was busy, receiving the totalage of two points one must yield to bare facts as they said last Summer when the flappers threw their stockings in the ash can and three-sheeted their backs to a glaring sun and public. Plenty Of Scores The most illogical thing in the world would be a chronological tabulation of events as they transpired at Legion Field Saturday, so we spare your eyesight and refuse to ask your indulgence. As a matter of fact the writer suffered from microphonetics throughout the game, seeking to pep up a landslide in a manner that it would get over to a disinterested hidden audience that must have been bored as the innumerable touchdowns were registered by either Came the yawn. There are several things this Chronicler would like to get off his chest, however, and one of the main ones is that any team that meets Vanderbilt for the rest of the sea-sonal stretch is going to run into as much trouble as the late Jean vai Jean who played on the Les Miserables team when Vic Hugo was coaching that eleven. Another is that Auburn should furnish a pathway of prostrate forms for teams like Ua-Teeh to step touchdown ward on.

in some of her remaining games of the season. Parker Stars Ah. laddies (and ladles), there are Just lots of things we could whisper in your ears via the printed page. One of them is that if this fellow Parker, who plays fullback for the Commodores, is any kin whatever to the late Alton B. Parker who ran for president the first time the Republicans got out the old empty dinner-pail gag, you would never believe it.

Alton B. gained no ground whatever politically because he ran too much in the same place. Dan McGugins Mr. Parker seems always to have an line. Dodd resorted to daring generalship, with only a few minutes left to play.

He faked a punt and then hr the ball out of bounds. He fried It a second time, finally punt-inw to Tennessee's 29-yard line and Hackman batted It down. An pass went over the goal line ft as the half ended, with a Criin-n mding back of him ready to atrli the ball.

their athletic relations is the only matter pending between them, Rear Admiral S. S. Robison said Saturday. A full army schedule, followed by examinations at West Point and then a trip to the Pacific Coast, will prevent acceptance of navys offer of a post-season game this year without eligibility rules. Tulane Overwhelms Southwest 60-0 NEW ORLEANS.

Oct. 19 tfP) Tulane's Green Wave swept Southwestern Louisiana Institute before it Saturday, rolling up a 60 to 0 score to shut out the smaller colleRe in what was principally a practice game for the conference dark horse. to get loose again, but this day's work was done. Stevens, the brilliant sophomore, scored Cornell's second touchdown and made the first possible. He scooped up Scarletts fumble on the Princeton 20-yard line in the opening period, smashed through to the 12-yard line, and lugged the leather again seven yards to the two-yard line after a short forward pass made first down.

Scott took the ball over for the score. Again in the second period, after Wittmer had made the tie score possible and the game had developed into a brilliant struggle about midfield. Stevens broke loose again. On the fourth down he dived 15 yards across the Princeton goal, leaped into a group of the Tigers and grabbed Howard Johns pass for a touchdown right from under their noses.

Near the close of the period, however, Jim Crawford, Auburn back, intercepted one of Askews passes and raced 77 yards before the same Askew overtook him and tackled, forcing him out of bounds, on Vandys seven-yard mark. Subs Held For Downs McGugin let the subs show what they could in the pinch and they held Auburn for downs on the one-yard mark.

In went 10 new fellows, the regs, with only Abernathy not going out. Schwartz dropped back to kick and got off a beautiful boot for a 60-yard gain but. in doing so he stepped back of the end zone, automatically registering a safety against his side and giving Auburn's its two points. Vanderbilt hit the touchdown road again a few minutes later, starting with the ball on their own 18. where Auburn was held for downs.

Leonard made eight as a starter, with Mc-Gaughey's 20-vard break through the line as the next sizable gain. Leonard added 13. making It a first down on Auburns 23. Mclllwaine made six and then McOaughey went around his left end. with Mclllwaine leading the interference, for the touchdown.

Abernathy's placement for point was good. Vandy Makes Final Move With the score at 34 to 2. Vannder-bilts last touchdown move began on its own 45, where the Commodores took the ball following Auburns punt.
