The count had reached 41 to 0 when the field judge's watch brought an end to the slaughter.

The Crimsons presented a smooth, devastating machine that ground out six-pointers with monotonous regularity after a scoreless first quarter and aimnst as monotonously converted tries for extra point, only the sixth attempt, a dropkiek by Bellini, failing and keeping the total from its highest possible limit for the touchdowns made. Alabamas starting eleven was more Florida 24 ZIMMERMAN DASHES 35 YARDS TO OPEN DRIVE Auburn Advances To Greens 15-Yard Line In First jrio Of Minutes Top, left to right, Lindley Hatfield, Sleepy Molphue and Ralph Jordan. Bottom, left to right, Tom Brown and Porter Grant. The Auburn-Sewanee game at Legion Field Saturday, which renews an old rivalry, ehould be one of the topnotch gamee of the year here. Both teame are firmly on the comeback trail after lean years on the grid and this season boast their strongest teams in saveral campaigns.

The players above, all Tigers, are expected to figure prominently in the Plainsmen performance. Hatfield and Grant, who have been suffering from injuries, are expected to be in tip-top shape. Grant ia a great little end, Hatfield, a dashing halfback, Tom Brown is a hard-driving fullback, Ralph Jordan has come through in exceptional style at center and Sleepy Molphue, of Mobile, is a dreaded tackle. MIDIPIN, 20-0 Buckeyes Celebrate Homecoming By Clouting Navy On Mid-Game Scoring FOOTBALL RESULTS passed 16 to I.each on the as the half ended. Frank Thomas sent the starting array back onto the field as the second half began and this gang proceeded to finish what was left of the lads from the Sunshine State.

The first sustained Alabama march of the day, unaided by penalties, swung into action after Sharpe had Intercepted a 'Gator pass following Longs fumble of the kickoff. The drive started from the Alabama 23 and Holley opened it with a 37-yard jaunt off left end, with Kars Whitworth pulling out of the line at guard and leading the slim halfback into the enemy's regions. Holley Runs3 Yards Holley came right back, again behind Whit, around right end for 23 more yards and out of bounds on Florida's 18. Holley didnt stop. He added eight more at the line by way of variety.

Cain then stepped five for a first down on the five and on the third play Long went across for the score. Whitworth ran it to 21 with another okeh placement kick. A miserable punt by Davis set the Crimsons rolling goalward again in a jiffy. The Florida back kicked straight up. it was not blocked, and the ball came down to bound backward.

being grounded by Smith for a net Florida loss of 10 yard on the 'Gator 16. Long, in three bucks, made a first down on the Florida six. then made three more, with Holley following Moseley ground right end for the last three yards and the score. Whitworths third try for point was good and the score was 28 to 0. Regular Backs Relieved The first-string backs were relieved for the day after this score and Walker, Hughes, Tucker and Chappell came in as a group to continue the parade.

They took over the ball after a punt on thetr own 38 and headed, tot homo with Walker turning in a 21-yard sprint at left end for a potboiler. The next gain was a 10-yard-er by Chappel for first down on the Florida 26. Walker added 11, then a penalty temporarily stopped the march. But It was not to be denied and Chappell broke through the line behind fine interference and sped 17 yards for a score without a hand being laid on him. Tucker kicked this extra point and kept up the record for no misses.

A Florida punt was brought back to the Alabama 41 by Chappel! for the next goalward movement. Walker's 13-yard run was a big help and Chappell added 10 for a first down on Florida's 35. Walker made eight more and Hughes made it a first down on the 23. Chappell knocked off four and Walker 13 more and the Gators were backed up to their own six -yard mark. Two bucks by Chappell and one by Walker made only two yards, but on fourth down with four to go Walker plunged over for the final score.

Bellini's dropkick for point failed, leaving the total at 41 to 0. The game ended with the ball near midfield a few plays after this final touchdown. Convincing Performance It was a very convincing performance that Frank Thomas team turned In, even when allowing for a possible lack of opposition. The Gators probably were not fully recovered from the effects of the drubbing that Georgia handed them. And yet, they were bold enough for a few minutes and might have been even longer had their first brilliant than a match for the gallant 'Gators, who made their only threat for a score early In the game and, repelled by a staunch defense when on the threshold of the goal, were never able to penetrate the Tide's territory under their own power.

They obtained the ball on Alabama's 35 as the second half opened when Long fumbled the kickoff, but Capt. Sharpe's Interception of a pass by Davis on his own 33-yard stripe dispelled the danger, if any. Florida's attack, as forecast, was principally by way of the air, butvso thoroughly were the receivers guarded and so hurried was the thrower by Alabama's charge after a beautiful connection hart all but produced it. early touchdown that this phase of tho offensive was quite as well bottled up as was the running attack. I 'ice Pass This pass spoken of was a peach, thrown by Davis rather than the flashy Hogero and received by Parnell.

towering loft end, who cut across to the right side of the field and speared It in the zone that Moseley was protecting. He caught it alter it had sailed 36 yards and then raced on toward the goal, skimming ti sidelines rather dangerously the while, for 37 yatjds, eluding Holley and two or three others before Cain bere down nhim like an express and nailed him on the nine-ayrd line Just when it looked as if he were footloose. It was a scintillating aerial for a net gain of 63 yards. The 'Gators had come Into possession of the ball when their members of the Hughes brigade intercepted a pass Holley had Intended for an Alabamian, with Leach pulling him down on the Florida 29. The game was hardly five minutes old when this electrifying stunt threw a cold ohlU oyer Alabama adherents.

Rut the Ttdesrnen braced like men and refused to wilt under this sudden onslaught. With the Gators smelling the goal. Alabama held them to two yards In three rushes and on fourth down with seven yards to go, th only Florida bid for a score whs definitely thwarted when Cain leaped Into and batted down a Rogerian toss that Parnell, standing virtually on the goal line, was well set to take. Cain's Punting Save for this spectacular but unsuccessful Florida thrust, the first quarter was principally in punting, with Cain functioning like the champion that he Is In this department. The Red horde Pagan to ramble in the second quarter, and after they had rushed over the Florida line twice for touchdowns, with a 14-yard penalty assisting Alabama on the first occasion, one of two or three years on the second, it was a runaway.

Alabama was ripping through with exceeding zest when these penalties were Inflicted, but the fact remains that they were quite tllsheartenlng to the defensive team, placing the ball as they did each time on the one-yard line. Alabama's ruthlcssness and the 14-point margin began to have its effect and the varsity added two more touchd'a'wns in the third quarter before quilting the scene and relinquishing the job to the second and third stringers, who carried on with reckless abandon and utter ease against the weary 'Gators. Led by Chappell and Walker, the second backfleld added the final two touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Cain's swell kicking enabled his 1NTER9ECTI0NA1 Gorit 7, N. Y.

Auburn held 10,000 spectators spellbound for 25 minutes, taking the play away from the Greenles. who appeared upset over Auburn's fierce tackling and their wn fumbling. Tulane didnt straighten out any of It long drives until late In the second period, after Auburn was utterly exhausted from the Green Wave's power plays. Auburn threw a scare Into the Greenles In the flrat three minutes of play when they advanced to the enemy's 15-yard line, where a poor pass from center following a surprise pass, good for nine yards, halted the battling Tigers. The Tigers connected up another desperate stretch of ground gaining that went to Tulane' 15-yard line, where the Green wall became as solid as the concrete stands and Tulane took the ball away from the Plainsmen.

Don Zimmerman paved the way for Tulane's first touchdown with a 35-yard return of a punt after It looked like the Tigers were going to hold the Greenles scoreless In the first half with three minutes to go. Zimmerman slipped away from three tacklers in skirting for his right sideline, almost getting away when he tried to reverse hie field. The three wild men Felts. Zimmerman and Payne plunged' the ball to Auburns 29-yard line and a pass from Zimmerman to ernon aynes put the ball on Auburn's five-yard line. Substitution Md Coach Blerman made three substitutions on three plays In order to kill enough time for the Greenles to take the ball across on four savage plays.

Felts, wjth a yard and half to go on third down, got a yard after Zimmerman had lost a yard when tackled by Hatfield on a wide end run. With the Tigers all set for Nollie Felts, Wop Glover slashed over right tackle for a touchdown. Glover toed the ball between the uprights for the extra point. Tulane ran wild through Auburn's line In the third period, chiseling out two long marches for touchdowns. Tho first march started on Auburns 25-yard line and was Interrupted with Felts, Payne and Zimmerman taking turns at plunging through the line.

Felts crashed the Auburn line like an elephant Jumping through a paper sack with the great Scafide and Lodriguee opening up the holes. In three first downs, Tulane advanced the ball from the Greenles 26-yard line to Auburn's 33. An offside penalty set the Greenles back five yards and Felts plunged Into the line, straightened up and streaked off S3 yards for the second touchdown. Zimmerman passed to Vernon Haynes for the extra point, catching the Tigers In for a placement or line plunge. The Flying Dutchman kicked off to Hitchcock, who was hit by Haynes and Felts on his 19-yard line.

Hitchcock punted to Tulanes 40-yard lino and the Greenles began another savage drive with Zimmerman reeling off a first down through the middle of the line. Payne made It a first down In two drives Into the line and, on a reverse play, Felts planted tho ball on Auburns 20-yard line, Rogers pulling the big elephant down. Felts Plunges Across Zimmerman came tearing through the line behind Rcaflde for 11 yards nnd Kelts, an old-fashioned plunging fullback, bucked the ball over Scaflde and Schroder for the third touchdown. The Tigers werent through fighting. They mustered up enough raw courage to take tho, ball from their own 20-yard line to Tulanes 20-yard stripe, where Lodrigues Intercepted a forward pass and Tulunes fourth touchdown march started with 20 yards of penalties aiding and abetting the wave.

7 VP) The Navy dreadnaught was limping back to. its home port at Annapolis Saturday night, badly battered from 60 minutes of tossing on Ohio rocks. The Buckeyes trimmed the Midshipmen, 20 to 0. before a homecoming crowd of who refused to leave in spite of rain, sleet and hall. Although tho Navy worked the ball down to within scoring distance five times during the afternoon, the Buckeyes rose to the necessary heights to prevent a touchdown.

While Navy was held to little or no gain through the line. It was more effective with its dashes around end and through the air. Ohio, for the most part, was content to play straight football, although one of its markers was on a forward pass. Ohio scored- first In the Becond period when Sid Glllman connected with one of Cramers passes on the 20-yard line, shook off two tacklers and dashed the remaining dlsUnce across the goal line. Hauhrlchs attempt to place kick the extra point was wide.

Another Counter A few minutes later Haubrich broke through the Navy line to block Campbells punt which Ferrall scooped up on the 20-yard line and went over standing up. Haubrich added the extra point. At -the beginning of the third period Navy passed near Its own goal lino. Kirn heaved the ball directly Into Ferrall's arms and he ran 20 yards over the goal line before a Middle could get near him. Haubrich again added a point.

With 20 points to the good. Ohio was content to go on the defensive and played a conservative game for the remainder of the time. Navy's big threat, forward passing, failed In the pinches. Two times the Middles were within the 20-yard line and each time something went wrong with Its aerial. Once Kirn passed over the goal line and again Holcomb Intercepted the heave on the five-yard line.

STATE COLLEGE, Nov. 7 JP) Colgate trampled the Nlttany Lions of Penn State here Saturday, rushing to a 32-7 victory after an uncertain start during which the Lions gained a first period 7-6 advantage.

With Samuels, Soleau, Reynolds and Lltster able to gain almost at will on straight football tactics, the Maroons were slowed up only when they endeavored to mix forward passes with their early assaults. They outrushed the Lions, about three yards to one and had scoring power to spare despite the handicap of 85 yards In penalties and recurring fumbles and Intercepted passes. In the final quarters, when the regulars had been replaced with substitutes. Rowe and Antolinl continued the route of the state defense. States only score developed In the first period.

A fumble by Samuels, recovered by Berry, gave the Lions a first down on the Maroons 15-yard line. A series of passes and a penalty gavo State a first down on the one-yard line. Moonves broke through for the touchdown and Lasich place-kicked the point. For the rest of the afternoon, however, developments assumed a deep Maroon tinge as the Lions were unable to threaten seriously again.

Cain bucked it over on the second try and who had a perfect extra point cuy with three out of three placements tried, made it 7 to 0.

Rentner, with dashes of 90 and 95 yards. Olson with one of 90 yards and Jake Sullivan with a run of 66 yards, brought ruin to Minnesota hopes for an unblemished conference record. Manders made all of the Gopher points, scoring two touchdowns, then making the kicks good. He took the ball over first from the Purple 16-yard line In two tries, then repeated his act in the second quarter. Meanwhile the Northwestern attack was Just getting geared for action and after a series of passes and line bucks, Olson scored the first touchdown for the Evanston team.

Something gave the Purple new life during the rest period (or Rentner grabbed the Minnesota kickoff and ran 96 yards for a touchdown.
