"Alabama is now gathering strength in material, said Hank, with that worried look gone. We have a good nucleus of juniors now in the fiery furnace and seniors returning and one of the finest groups of freshmen Alabama has had in 10 years. "Never have the alumni worked harder. I can say they are more behind Alabama today than ever before.

If we can enroll another fine class of freshmen, Alabama will again move up among the good teams. takes again, as a young team will, but they never gavt up. I never aw an Alabama team stand up any better than Alabama did in the third when at first it looked like it might be a repetition of the first period. Few teams have ever known what it was to lose as this Alabama team. Two years and the first break came when Willie Beck fell on a Mississippi State fumble at the 31 and this time Alabama embraced the break with the first winning touchdown and conversion in two years.

It was Pete Reeves asking Coach Whitworth, to let him kick the extra point showing the confidence of an Alabama team, that will to end it all, no matter the price. For Alabama remaining are Georgia, Tulane, Georgia Tech, Mississippi Southern and Auburn. No time for celebrating the first win since beating Tennessee, 27 to 0, in 1954.

Quarterback Gene Newton, who did not have a chance here Saturday, made seven to the three before the Tech reserves called halt to things. The attempt was stopped at the two when Charlie Maynard. team quarterback who doesnt even dress with the varsity during the week, knocked down a fourth-down Newton pass.

Maynard passed 23 yards to Delaney for the final touchdown with the clock showing 44 seconds to play. The 40,000 fans got to see the entire Tech squad in action, and there is depth all down the line. Tulane gained only 79 yards on the ground against this rugged Tech line, led by Guard Jimmy Johnson and Tackle Carl Vereen. Tech totaled 428 yards rushing and passing to 91 by the Greenies. In defeat Tackle Dalton Truax and Guard Wilbur Troxclair stood Out for the Wave early in the game, but even they wilted under the pressure.

27 The rambling wrecks from Georgia Tech dug deep into the team in trying to hold the count down against Tulane, but it was of no avail as the Jackets made shambles of the SEC's No. 1 game here Saturday. The final score was Tech 40, Tulane 0. And it could have been worse. This just wasn't a match, as Coach Bobby Dodd boya showed 'they deserved their No.

3 national ranking, and maybe higher. Tech pertainly showed its class running, passing, kicking and defending. And it didn't make any difference whether it was the first or fifth string. Tulane couldn't do a thing with any of thrm. The win pushed Tech farther out front in the SEC race.

Tennessee now appears to be the only team with a chance of stopping this machine, and it becomes more doubtful week by week that Tech can be stopped. It took Tech a little while to get rolling, but when the rout started in the second half there was no stopping the Jackets. TO ADD INSULT to injury, a mixture of third, fourth and fifth stringers combined to hold Tulane for four downs inside the 10 in the final minutes, then took the ball and marched 63 yards for a touchdown with 44 seconds to play. Tech started things jumping when Fullback Dickie Mattison quick-kicked 45 yards to the Tulane nine in the first period. Tulanes Ronnie Quillian tried the same trick and misfired with a 16-yard boot that gave Tech possession on the Tulane 33 It took five plays for the Engineers to score from there.

The man who did the final damage was none other than Johnny Menger, who ruined Auburn last week. The shifty Menger went around right end from 16 yards out for the score. Touchdown No. 2 didnt come until six plays into the second period And this one was no short drive; it went 80 yards in 10 plays. Halfback George Vol-kert got 17 of the yards after a great fake by Mitchell.

JUST TO MIX things up. the Jackets went to the air for the POWERFLITE ULTRAMATIC OVERDRIVE score, with Quarterback Toppy Vann, Mitchell's understudy, throwing to Volkert for the last 15 yards. Vanns conversion made it 13-0, where it stood until the second half. Tulane, still with hopes of coming back, kicked off to start the second half. And it didnt take long for the Green-ies to see they were outclassed.

Tech brought the kickoff back to the 25, then waltzed along for the 75-yard TD drive, which came with over 10 minutes still left in the third period. Key plays in that sweep were a Mitchell-to-Jim-my Thompson pass for nine, a 15-yard off-tackle burst by Fullback Ken Owen and a 22-yard run by Halfback Paul Rotenberry. The score was a one-yard quarterback sneak by Mitchell, who then converted, making it 20-0. QUILLIAN PLAYED into Tech's hands again just minutes later when he tried another quick-kick this one going 18 yards to the Green Wave 33. Despite a 15-yard penalty, the Jackets scored in nine plays.

Vann got back into the act with a one-yard quarterback sneak for the touchdown, then converted for a 27-0 lead. The reserves, including some players not even listed on the program, poured in for Tech at this point. They wanted in on the fun too and there was no stopping them. A 69-yard drive opened the fourth period with Tech getting to 34-0 on a 10-vard touchdown pass from Halfback Joe Delaney to Fullback Dick Gookin, both third stringers. The left-handed passing Delaney had the defense fooled completely on that score.

Vann again converted. DELANEY FUMBLED minutes later to give Tulane its only serious shot at the Tech goal.

On eight throws none got home. But the quarterbacks uncertainty on their roll out options cost valuable yardage on several plays. Basically it was two gambles tor first downs on their own 30 which cost the touchdowns. The overflow crowd of 35,500 was first lifted from its seats when the Porkers made the Rehs pay for their original gamble. Late in the third quarter Ray Brown elected to try for one yard and sent Paige Cothren.

The amazing Don Christian, Arkansas hardworking quarterback, plunged over from the one on the first play of the fourth quarter. The second gamble was called by Wallace Blalack later in the fourth quarter after a 59-yard quick-kick from the toe of Gerald Nesbitt had put the Rebs deep in their own territory and thy were trying desperately to get up.

On this play Cothren was used as decoy and a pitchout went to Leroy Reed with one yard needed. He swung wide but was blocked out of bounds before getting past the Tin of scrimmage. The Porkers appeared satisfied to kill the clock with little more than five minutes to go until they needed a long gainer after an offside penalty. Then Christian rolled out leisurely and broke downfield. He was exceedingly tired as he strained to beat Reed and Blalack to the corner.

They hit it about together. But the Porker quarter was over to climax a junket. CHRISTIAN PILED up 122 yards in 23 rushes and completed the only passes of the game, three in eight, for 17 yards.
