The Moccasins told the Volunteers! after the game, that the Vols were th cleanest playing football bunch the Chattanooga eleven ever has gone against. So said Capt. Paul Parker line coach of the Tennessee team Cant Parker also paid tribute to the clean playing of the Moccasins. The unusually small number of penal, ties bore out the assertion of the Ten. nessee Chattanooga was penal, ized once for being offside.

Tennessee was offside twice, each time losing fiv yards, once for holding fifteen yards, and once Yor a substitute convening with other Tennessee players before a play had been made, fifteen yards, And so I it was up to others it the game to pull the rough stuff. Thera were several fights in the grandstand. In the concrete stands, old John and hisTunning mates staged an ex. cellent combat. A Tennessee supports and a wearer of U.

C. colors went it tt good and strong and their combin'd pugilistic efforts had such a strengthen-ing effect that at least ten others be. gan whaling the life out of each other. A policeman stepped in about the third round and quieted things down. Terf minutes later, after the officer left, 'the fighters were drinking out cf each others bottle.

Over in the Tennessee section, across the field, another fight got under way, but the officers thttf went up and got their men from behind the Knoxville High band and carried them off. The fans got a big kick out of the combat between the representative! cl each school who held the 10-yard chains It seemed as if they were determined to see that the other side got not one-tenth of an inch more than it deserved. AU through the game, they kept the line hard and fast and then was a continual pulling of the chain When Tennessee was granted a flr down on close decision, the U. C. representative contested the head lino-mans action and refused to move un'il he was told that only the Moccasin captain had a right to protest.

"Hack and Mack, the twins, gave the huge crowd a'gnxl thrill in spite of the fact neither inf an opportunity to pull the famouiT nessee run fo' touchdown on the off. Tennessee received only once 4 that went Brandt's vay. The steady end, however, made a nice return. Tte crowd was very tense at the kick-off. It seemed as If a pin dropping could be heard.

And when the ball went Mr off to the side into the linemac hands, there was a chorus ol 1 shucks, believe it or not. History was made at the stadium terday. After six unsuccessful attempt of aviators to toss a ball onto the grid' iron before the start of a game, Jersey Ringel, i.oted Chattanooga aviator, fie low over the field, and Mrs. Tarwli Patten dropped the oval on the ten yard line. The aviator was clearly vis ible to the entire assemblage and banked steeply in his flight away, waved at the crowd and got a resounding cheer, which, of course, he couifl not hear.

A valiant Blue and Gold line, whose dogged spirit was proof against any attack of human gridiron agencies, was not able to repulse the thrusts of a pair of inspired "Touchdown Twins" yester day afternoon and Chattanooga bowed to defeat to Tennessee, 20 to 0. Eugene McEver and Buddy Hackman, perhaps the greatest pair of Jialfbacks In the south today, rbse to the heights which carried the Vols through an un-; defeated season last year, to smash out i three touchdowns. The well-trained toe of "Gawky" Bobby Dodd accounted for the other two points. Before the largest crowd which ever packed into Chamberlain field, estl mated at 10,000, the Orange and White disciples of MaJ.

Bob Neyland drove through the Moccasin ranks and over for a counter within the first four minutes of play. The Vols came back with another in the same period and were knocking at the portals a third time when the quarter ended. These two smooth running backs, McEver arid Hackman, seemed to sweep the field clear purely by the fury of their attack, diving, fitting and smashing through all opposition 'time after time. Heydrick entered into the battle to ream off many strips of yardage in the second half. Vols Hold Moccasins In Shadow of Goal.

While a steady do wnpoury robbed this, the classic of the Chattanooga schedule, cf much of its sensational value, forcing two warring factions to a conservative style of the pigskin sport, two instances stand out in bold relief to Moccasin fans. One was when the pupils of Coach Harold Drew charged through a heavier and more experienced line by the sheer power of their fighting spirit to within the shadows of the goal post, only to have an intercepted pass break up the attack, and the. other when the Blue and Gold wall held for downs after the Vols had crowded their way to within five yards of a marker in the first period. It was the bulky form of Bill Ward which leaped between Tennessee and a touchdown, to bat the oval to the ground, resulting in a touchback and a new lease on life for the Moccasins. Bob Oroescheil and Ralph Trail were the main cogs in the machine which lashed and pounded its way into the backyard of the Vol defense only to see it fade out before the outstretched hinds' of "Smiling Jim Finney.

With the ball on the 10-yard after a sustained drive, Lewis Tucker went in with instructions to pass. He did, and for a moment it looked like a counter. Then Pinney, the Vol center, came out of a mass of figures, latched onto the slippery pigskin-, and cutting his way through a field of tacklers, raced to the 60-yard line before he was downed. The whistle sounded- on the next play, ending the half. Ralph Trail and Bob Groeschell were the greatest threats to the Vol forward wall all afternoon, both men darting Into the line with drive and power which astounded the local fans.

However, that mighty i Vol -defense would bend but not break, and every Moccasin drive was killed before it reached its goal. Art Koenneger, Big Jim Findley, Spider Johnson and Morgan were the stalwarts of the Moccasin line who spilled many a Tennessee play aborning. In the second half. Heavy Grant replaced Koenneger at center and played a big part In halting plays through the center of the line. Donny Overmeyer upheld his punting honors with an average of thirty-five yards or better, booting a heavy ball in the face of a fast charging line which made his job ticklish to the extreme.

His punts outdistanced those of Bobby Dodd, the Vol kicker, but Bobby did some precise placing which forced the Moccasins deep into their own, territory time after time, Tennessee Holds Tricks For Conference Foes.

The Moccasins were unable to keeD up a sustained drive and their efforts for the day gave them four firstdowns Opposed to this the Vols reeled off sixteen.

Hackman cut through tackle for twenty-one yards and McEver plunged for a firstdown on the 16-yard line. McEver again carried the ball, sweeping everything out of his way as he stomped across the goal line.

This time Bobby missed and the score was 13 to 0. A recovered fumble by Decker, and a series of plunges by McEver and Hack-man again carried the Vols to the 5 yard line, but after three attempts failed. Ward batted a pass to the ground and the threat was killed. Moccasins put on their drive in the second period, which Jim Finney broke up by intercepting a pass and streaking back up the field for forty yards; Chattanooga kicked off to start the second half and Brandt raced the ball to the 38-yard line. Fallowed an exchange of punts, then Jim Finney flashed across the picture again, snagging a Moccasin pass on the 40-yard line, but going down In his tracks.

Then started the drive. Hackman and McEver got busy and a few plays later Eugene streaked across the finish line. Dodd made the kick good and the score was 20 to 0. The teams battled on nearly even terms for the rest of the way, with many substitutes on each side. ChttUnoon (0).

The game was played before 1,500 rabid fans who braved a chilly wind and overcast skies not only to send the froeh battle, but to hear the report of the Tennessee Chattanooga battle, Chattanooga played -straight defensive football in the first half, but a beautiful return of a punt by Deak Brackett put the ball on the 14-yard line, while a long run by McPherson placed the ball in position to make the second touchdown Two long runs by Warfield made the third touchdown. Chattanooga opened an offense in the third quartet, but It was too late. Here the baby Vols lagged behind and played defensive football.

In the second half the Baby Moccasins played the Volettes off their feet, going over for a touchdown once, but having it called back and an offside penalty imposed, and twice crowding into the shadow of the goal' line. Bradford, former Central High man, took up" quarterback duties, and performed like a veteran.
