DEFEATS CORNELL, 33-7, BEFORE 45,000 Score In Every To Rout Ithacans Philly Battle BY ZIPP NEWMAN NASHVILLE Vanderbilt awaits he Louisiana State-Tulane game Saturday with partisan feeling. Tulane can make Vanderbilt champion of the Southeastern Conference by upsetting the versatile Swamp Bengals. In a game featured by brilliant line play. Vanderbilt defeated Alabama.

14 to 6, in Vanderbilt Stadium here Thanksgiving. Cleaner handling of the ball won for Vanderbilt in a gripping grid drama, enacted before 18 000. including Lyn Waldorf and Bert Ingwerson, coaches of Northwestern. Alabama was in the game right tip until Pete Curley enacted one of the most spectacular plays ever seen on gridiron or screen. The Commodores were leading.

7 to 6. after Alabama had throttled an early drive in the fourth period at the Crimsons 20-yard line. Golden Locks Curley went back pass on fourth down. The pass from center was low and it looked hke Alabama would wind up with the ball on the 45-yard line. This Pete Curley must have been thinking all the time he was chasing the elusive football.

He took the ball wheeled and punted. It was a humpback liner. Ball Hits Riley Joe Riley, standing on his own one-yard line, must have taken his eyes off the ball. The ball staggered into him and bounced back of the Alabama goal line. Lord Byron Beard fell on the ball and a thunderous roar went up from the Hands.

Vanderbilt was home free. The Commodore supporters were able to relax. The Vanderbilt famine Was at an end against Alabama aft-ei five long years of skimpy rations. There were three differences in he two teams that gave one of the most rugged exhibition of line play seen in the South this year, Vanderbilt was the better ball hawk, recovering five fumbles, two of its own. Vanderbilt played inspired football And the third difference was eight points.

Alabama was the hnter team from a statistical standpoint They led in all the yardage departments, but only once was able to go places with the ball. Most, the game was played in Alabama territory. Alabama faced one of the greatest Vanderbilt lines within the past 10 years, a huge line from end to end. The Crimsons couldnt block out the Vanderbilt tackles, ends, and Sam Brown, who for his third straight year played his best game of the season against Alabama. If Alabama had been mentally alert in the first few minutes of play, the Crimsons may havp turned Jimmy Angelichs quick kick which traveled from Alabama 22-yard linp to the Commodores three-yard line into an early score.

The opportunity came when Rand Dixon's 28-yard punt went out of bounds on Vanderbilts 28-yard line. Great Opportunity The opportunity was Alabama's strike for a quick touchdown on the fourth play of the game. Jimmy Angelich hit left tackle for a yard. The impact sounded like two freight cars hitting together as the linemen crashed. Joe Kilgrow sold out through the middle of the line.

There was a possible touchdown in sight. The ball slipped from under his arm. and Rannie Thorgmorton fell upon the ball at Vanderbilt's 24-yard line. The first period produced one first down. Dixon passed to Plas-man for nine yards and Agee, the hard driving fullback, hit center for a var1 and first down at Alabamas 47-yard line.

The Commodores gained one yard in three plays and punted. Riley Smith's 54-yard punt sent the Commodores back to their 26-yard line and the period ended with Vanderbilt at its own 28-yard line. It was mostly a punting period with Alabama enjoying the advantage, thanks to Angelich's quick kick and Smith's 54-yard punt. Vanderbilt struck fast and furious In the second period to travel 72 yards for the first touchdown of the game. Sam Agee stuck the match to the Vanderbilt power.

He drove through right tackle for five yards. Dixon Plays Well Rand Dixon, playing the finest game of his career, flipped a pass to Capt. Geny for seven yards and the Commodores were at the 40-vard line, ready to strike out for the Black and Gold and glory land. The Commodores worked the razzle-dazzle for 18 yards. Rand Dixon passed to Dick Plasman for nine yards and he lateraled the ball to Doug Simpkins, who almost got away in getting nine yards down the sideline.

Vanderbilt was mixing up its attack. They had Alabama worried. Sam Agee ground out three yards. Rand Dixon threw a low pass to an end in the open. If it had been up it would have been good And ihen came right back to Capt.

Willie Geny with a long pass to the left and near the sideline. Geny was tackled at Alabama's three-yard line by Joe Riley Geny feinted like a boxer. He led the Alabama flanker back to believe he was going one way and then went another to get around him. Rand Dixon went through right guard for the touchdown, and the trusty toe of Rannie Throgmorton booted the ball between the uprights. Vanderbilt's sudden reversal of form struck like lightning.

Alabamas line coped with the situation, but Alabama's secondary couldn't fathom the aerial raids. Tide Hai Chance Alabama had two chances to strike back. The Crimsons took possession of the ball at their 43-yard line when Dixon's 27-yard punt was rushed. The opportunity blew itself when Sam Agee recov- College 0. Dayton 19, John Carroll 0.

NEEDING VICTORY OVER TULANE WAVE ered Jimmy Angelich's fumble at the 45-yard line. Riley Smith saved a touchdown on the second down when he took a pass out of Willie Geny's hands and was downed at the 29-vard line.

Jimmy Angelich broke loose around his own left end near the end Of the half for 15 yards, placing the ball on Vanderbilt's 45-yard line. The spectators stood as Alabama made a desperate effort to tie I the score in ihe closing minute of the game. The half ended with Blondy Oliver knocking down what looked like a sure touchdown pass from Joe Riley to Jim Walker, and Riley passing to Angelich for seven yards on the last play of the half. It was a furious second period. Bobby Oliver, Jimmy Walker and Riley Smith blotted out possible touchdowns by accurate work with their guns.

And what looked like a golden opportunity for Alabama in the first minute of play turned into disaster for the Crimsons. Alabama needed only two plays to score in the third period. Dick Plasman booted the kickoff 58 yards and Bubber Nisbet returned it 15 yards. Alabama was penalized 15 yards and Joe Kilgrow broke loose for 11 yards. There was an exchange of punts and Crimson Tide was ready to dash high.

Kilgrow Run Joe Kilgrow broke through left tackle for 12 yards, Dick Plasman and Rannie Throgmorton cutting him down. Alabama was at Vanderbilt's line. Joe Kilgrow began to fade back to pass. He kept fading back, 10 i yards, 15 yards and then 20 yards. He rifled the ball lo his right.

Far down the field Jimmy Walker was crossing Vanderbilt''-- 30-yard line. He was far beyond Vanderbilt last -entincl. He took the ball on the 28-yarri line and sold out. He was lugging important mail, the tying touchdown. Riley Smith's placement sailed I high and to the left of the upright.

The Crimsons had to make another; touchdown to keep from losing. Vanderbilt bogged down in trying to move the Alabama line and Dix- i on punted 45 yards. Smith's punt traveled 37 yards and bounced back 15 yards, leaving the ball at Vanderbilt's 45-yard line. The Crimsons were good and sore. Dixon fumbled, recovered and lost a yard.

He lost 12 more yards when Paul Bryant and Bill Young swarmed in upon him. Dixon On Jaunt Rand Dixon, the swirling, swinging mad man, broke loose for the longest run of the game toward the close of the third chapter. He started over right tackle, cut to his left behind a wall of golden jersies and raced to Alabama's 40-yard line where Joe Kilgrow brought him down. The Commodores blocking was superb. Huggins fumbled and recovered after a four-yard loss.

He came back with a five-yard gain and punted 19 yards, out of bounds on Alabama's 20-yard line. Smith went back to pass, seeing no receivers open, he lost a half yard as the period ended. The end for Alabama came fast and unexpected in the first of the final chapter. Dick Plasman intercepted a pass and returned it to Alabama 46-yard line. Alabama drew a 15-yard penalty in the Commodores drive to the 20-yard line and then came the play you have read about in fiction.

Three plays had failed in the Commodores' heated efforts to slip over a haymaker. And what could have turned out very disastrous for the Commodores turned into a touchdown when Pete Curley punted after it looked like he would be thrown for a 25-yard loss. From here on it was Pete Curley's game. He intercepted a pass and returned it 25 yards and he had possession of the ball on the I final play of the game when Ala- i bama uncorked a forward, double lateral. So much was happening down on the field with spectators 1 running out on the field, thinking they had heard the final gun.

no one figured out how Alabama pulled its razzle-dazzle and Pete Curley ended up with the ball. Poor Ball Handling Costly Alabama lost where it could have! had at least a tie out of the game, had the Crimsons handled the ball cleaner and had they played with the fire and zeal of the Commodores. Vanderbilt won because it played inspired football and was quick to take advantage of the breaks. This has been an exceptional year for teams to lose that led in yard- age. Alabama gained 50 yards more than Vanderbilt, making 10 first downs to eight.

The Crimsons were a little better in running with the ball and they gained 109 yards on four passes to Vanderbilt's 60 on a i like number of completed passes. Alabama got the best punting, had 1 an edge in returning the punts. Tarzan White didn't gel to play Bill Peters played well as long as he could stand up under the ordeal. And when Peters went to the sideline. a sophomore substitute caught the brunt of Sam Agees powerful thrusts into the line.

Alabama couldn't gain over the strong side. yet the Crimsons found going to the weak side profitable, although they didn't try it very often Vanderbilt showed Alabama a line, a line that averaged more I lhan 200 pounds from end to end I Captain Geny was a swell offen-i sive end. Dick Plasman as a su- perb defensive end Sam Brown was a great guard Thursday. And I Rannie Throgmorton was the outstanding lineman on the field In a game where linemen overshadowed the backs with their great charging and ounler hai gmg Captain Jimmy Walker was the heroic figure in Alabama's defeat. He was great on defense and the one time the Commodores gave him a chance he took in a touchdown pass.

Three times the Commodore! cheated Jimmy Walker nut of scor-I ing chances when he was in the clear. Riley Smith played a fine game I on the defense and he blocked his man.

Since inauguration of the series between the two schools in 1901, Mississippi Here are two action photos of the Alabama-Vanderbilt game played at Nashville Thursday afternoon. The upper photo shows a group of Alabama players about to smother Rand Dixon, Vandy quarterback, in the first period. Dixon was stopped by the mass, as can be easily messing up things for the Alabama backs.

Several times those big Vanderbilt linemen picked up the Alabama halfbacks and threw them into their ball carriers. It's a good thing Ray Morrison didn't have any great passer and one nifty running back. He had Thursday the finest line Vanderbilt has shown Alabama in more than a decade. Big line- men were able to stop Alabama's I running game at crucial stages of the game. And it is well Alabama had a fine line.

If Bill Young and Kay Francis and Jim Whatley hadn't been in there playing their hearts out, Sam Agee would have pulverized the Alabama secondary. Alabama went down trying to win. They tried every way to con- quer the Commodores and make it six straight from Vanderbilt. But this Vanderbilt was playing for a win over Alabama to go along with the Tennessee victory. It has been a great year for Vanderbilt, after losing heart-breakers to Fordham i and Temple.

And if Tulane can win for the Commodores. Nashville will be celebrating into April. Alabama, after losing three All- Americas and never able to once go to the grid wars with a full army, made a game attempt to car- ry on. The Crimsons are thank- ful. They beat Tennessee and won the Georgia game, a game they had their hearts set on winning.

Vanderbilt loses fifteen players through graduation. Alabama loses nine, including Kay Francis, ranked as the most consistent of all Ala- bama players, Riley Smith, a na-1 tional standout back, and Jim Whatley, who came into his own as a fine tackle this Fall, and Paul Bryant, whom many believed would have been one of the most brilliant I ends of the year but for a broken bone and other injuries. Alabama lost to a great Vander- bilt team. And the Alabama play-1 ers were the first to congratulate Ihe Commodores. They could appreciate Vanderbilt's hour of victory and realize once more their good fortune a year ago in winning a championship and then going on to score one of the finest victories in interscctional football.
