4.eV, 1 ic, i i By 0 K. BARNES Associated Press Staff Writer NASHVILLE, Twirl, Nov, 10 (P). Vanderbilt, with one eye cast prehensively toward Knoxville, took time off from preparations for next week's Tennessee game this afternoon long to shove aside a persistent Sewanee Tiger. The score was 19 to O. The chilly spectators in the stands saw little more than the renewal of an ancient gridiron rivalry, and while Vanderbilt was evidently superior the few thrills of the game were provided, by lick Clark's boys from the University of the South.

Sewanee, attempting to accomplish with daring and surprise what their inferior strength could not, violated the rules of conservaitve football on several occasions, but it was fufile. By O. K.

A Se--wanee touchdown, the uneasy tators knew, might have given Vanderbilt the same 7-5 drubbing she bad administered to two foes earlier this season, but the Commodore ma' chine smacked across two more touchdowns in the fourth period and when the game ended was threaten- ing again with practically every substitute having seen action. Rand Dixon's first four punts of the game went' out of bounds be, tween the Sewanee nine and 11-yard line.

On these occasions Sewanee cast caution to the winds. The first time brought -a forward pass 4nstead of 4. the conventional punt. Line plays were used by the light Tigers on occasions when -they were punted 'into "coffin corner." Some of these worked for good gains. COMMODORES SCORE Vanderbilt's Power and reserve list told on the Tigers in the fourth.

After Peebles made a first down on Sewanee's 30, Dixon passed 16 yards to Oliver, who raced to the four-yarder. Sewanee held three times, but Dixon passed over -the goal to Scoggins on fourth down. Throgmorton placekicked the extra point. A short later, Dixon thrl ran back a punt 15 yards to the Set wanee 35. Crawford raced 20 yards around right end.

A pass that bounced crazily out of the hands of one Commodore an one Tiger, landed safely in the grasp of Lang Vifrotan on the four-yard mark, and Smith crashed guard for a touch, down a moment later. Texas Sam Brown's placekick was shot. Sewanee's backfield functioned skillfullyand a more powerful line might have made the dan, gerous if not victorious. However, Colmore at tackle, and Sam King at left guard, played bang-up games. Pearson, Poage, Hartrich and Ruch made the most of their ball-handling opportunities.

HOD GIDDENS LOST' The victory proved exceedingly costly, a Hod Giddens, reserve center, was lost for probably the remainder of the season with a badly wrenched left "football" knee. That leaves Claxton and Jack (The Goon) Pick to carry on at the pivotal post. Herbert Tade already was lost for the season after sprain- ing his- shoulder in the Tide fray. Added to the loss of Giddens, little Shorty Needham was ordered to walk on crutches after re-injuring a "bum" knee.

On top of that Freddie Moses was sent to U. T. infirm- ary nursing a sprained ankle. Sholner, and McCarroll, reserve tackles, ids were in the hospital last night recuperating from minor ailments. As Alf Austelle, Doe Silberman and bonny Humphreys were out of commission for yesterday's games these injuries send the Volunteer stock soaring to a new low ebb for the Vanderbilt battle.

Chat BY MARVIN When Tennessee and Vandy clash on the gridiron, people flock from miles around to see the football carnival. You've already been informed dozens of times' the teams renew thpir ancient rivalry over in the Capital City thisweekend. Every inch of space will be jammed for the revival of this feud that promises to be the merriest fight in many years.

There's a spirited element in the game that won't be found in the Vol-Tide or Vol-Duke flare-ups. Vandy was Tennessee's first traditional foe, and the burning zeal to conquer the Commodores hasn't dimmed one bit down through the years. For several reasons Saturday's battle should pack more dynamite and nerve-tingling moments than any of the former duels before Neyland and McGugin.

2) sotrrn MICHIGAN STADIUM. ANN Nov. 10. (01)--A: brilliant 100 yard rim batk of the opening kick off, coupled with a fourth period field goal, hoisted University of Wisconsin from the Big Ten football cellar today at the expense of Michigan. which took another heart-breaking defeat, 10 to O.

Aroused to fighting pitch by Lynn Jordan's touchdown sprint on the first play of the game, the Wolverines threatened constantly throtighout the first half. No fewer than five times, scoring chances were lost when the Wolverines shifted from line plays to a futile aerial attack The high water mark of the Michigan attack was the Badger tthree yard line, which the Wolverines reached late in the first period only to lose the ball on downs. -Taking the kickoff that started the game on the Wisconsin goal line, Jordan met a 1 tidal wave of Wolverines at the Wisconsin 25. but shed tacklers like a duck sheds water, and sped on. The only remaining Wolverine who might have stopped him feU over an official.

I Mario Pacetti, Badger guard, placekicked the extra point. Then, in the -fourth period, be booted the Badger field goal from about 12 yards out after Stan Haukedahl had blocked Michigan punt on the LINCOLN, Neb. Nov. 10 Back on the same midland gridiron jungle where they had been starved on iL scoreless diet through three successive hunts, the slashing Panthers from Pittsburgh held one of the sweetest feasts today by routing Nebraska's valiant but outclassed Cornhuskers, 25 to ,8 before 35,000 spectators The defeat, sealed, and certified during the first three periods when Mike Nicksick raced through the Nebraska defense for all four Panther touchdowns was the second woist ever suffered by the Corn-huskers at home. The worst Nebraska rout at home was turned in by Notre Dame 18 years ago, 20 to 0, but the Panthers had that one shaded up until the final period when "Chief' Henry Bauer yipped a 22-yard pass to Ray Toman for the only score.

Standing with Nicksick as a big hero of the day was lazy Weinstock. Izzy not only, was a bulwark In the Pitt defense but ran superb Interference and tossed laterals to his running mate $hat 'completely baffled the Cornhuskers. SHELBYVILLE LOSES MONTEREY, Nov. Monterey High Wildcats defeated a strong Shelbyville eleven on the latter's gridiron today by a 27 to 20 score. Judd, conference leading scorer, led the winner's attack.
