Beattie Feathers, Tennessee's reat halfback, was the keynottiof the Vo lun2 teers' attack, which surpassed that of Kentucky in running, passing and punt7 Ralph Kercheval did some great punting, but his average was ruined by 4 blocked punt. Tennessee made thirteen first downs io three for Kentucky, gained 227) to ninety-three on rushing, completed Isix out of eight passes for 114 yards to two out of seven for forty-three yards by Kentucky, and each team intercepted one. Tennessee punts averaged forty(' four and Kentucky punts forty-three yards, while Tennessee lost thirty and Kentucky forty yards on penalties. Within five minutes after the game started Feathers took the ball on his own 46-yard line and on an end run eluded Kentucky tacklers and dashed fifty-four yards down the sideline for a touchdown. --Tlmes Staff Photo by Hull.

It was a 1-yard lunge. Below, Billy Venable has left his feet in a desperate effort to snare the bundle of energy known as Elmer Hendren, who is galloping onward to Centre's game- tyliig touchdown.

pmnimammm. BILL VENABLE GLITTERS; 31-YARD 'SCAMPER VITAL Dash Paves Way for Smith to Score--Departiiii Players Shine in Swan Song U.C. Defensive Record Good. Fighting their hearts outto upset Centre's favored Praying Colonels, Chattanooga's Moccasins failed by a 13-to-6 margin as they dropped the curtain on their 1933 football season before a Thanksgiving crowd of 2,500. The spirited men of Moore held the Kentuckians to a deadlock in the first ball, desperately being outrushed.

Then they snapped a four-game scoring slump as they burst loose to take the lead, 6 to 0, only to see the Colonels rally for two rapid touchdowns, the last of which resulted from Fred Perry's costly fumble deep in his own territory to score. A squirming mite halfback, Elmer Hendren, equaled if not bettered his performance of a year ago as he twisted, stiff-armed and side-stepped his way to both Centre counters with dashes of Sixteen and eighteen yards. The junior was a continual threat throughout, amassing a milling yardage total of 136 to far outclass the rest of the field. Billy Venable, in the left halfback running spot all the way for the first time this season, ripped off eighty-one paces at rushing for runner-up honors. It was this elusive star, singing his swan song with nine others, who tore off thirty-one yards to put the ball in scoring position for lazy Smith, another senior, to score for the MocCaain.S.

As the crowd rose to cheer him, the former McCallie trash slipped off tackle, eased out of two tacklers' grasp, dodged another, cut back to dodge two more and was pulled down on the 12-yard line as his interference slowed him up. Both teams started scoring with the aid of penalties. The Moccasins were thrown for a loss on fourth down on the 4-yard line, but Centre was offside and penalized to the 1-yard line. Smith went over on the first play to climax the 44-yard drive. The Colonels took the next kick-off and scored after Hendren ripped off eighteen yards and U.

C. suffered a costly 15-yard It was seconds later that U. a- received the kick-off, Perry fumbled, Ensminger recovered on the U. C. 16-yard line and Hendren, on the first play of the last period, darted for the game-winning tally: After that Centre threatened twice and then the Moccasins once as Don Hornsby caused much fluttering of hearts with tie longest run of the game.

A blocked Chattanooga kick gave the Colonels their first chance, but they lost on downs on the 7-yard line. They drove back to the 26-yard line, but at that point Hornsby made a spectacular Interception of a pass after it tipped the intended receiver's fingers and streaked up the sidelines forty yards to the Centre 35-yard stripe. A 15-yard penalty against U. C. nipped the threat cold and Ellis was forced to punt.

A shower of passes the rest of the way failed to pull the game out of the fire. Though their Thanksgiving record of one loss since 1925 was blemished, the Moccasins rose to the occasion to stop many Colonel threats and protect their defensive record, which closed out with nine opponents' touchdowns in seven games, the best Moccasin mark since 1927. Twice, in addition to the above mentioned late drives, did the U. C. fighters bottle up Centre drives in scoring range.

Both threats were at the outset, when Centre reached the 26-yard mark -and fumbled and then the 14-yard line and were elected to try a place-kick from the 26-yard line, which Barksdale missed. In the second period the Moccasins got to the Centre 33 and 25-yard lines, being forced to punt on the first occasion and on an intercepted pass on the second. In the third before scoring they hit the Centre 27- yard line, punting on fourth down. As Centre took a 3-to-1 lead in the series and U. C.

suffered its third loss against- two victories and two ties, all seniors shone brightly. In addition to Venable and Smith, Capt. Dudley Merritt, Jitn Haley, Lou Ellis, Yonk Kosik, 011ie Olinger closed out their grid careers with great ball. Hunk Anderson and Red Etter were hampered by injuries, but Coach Moore sent them in late in the game for a final fling. Outstanding among the nonsentors Were Fred Perry and Don Hornsby.

All these stars drew a big hand as they left the game. The statistics show that Centre' led at first downs, 10 to 7, at total yards gained, 222 to 254, and at punting, with an average of 31.3 to 30. Running Account I First Period. Centre kicked off over the igoal line and the ball was brought back to the 20. Venable hit the middle of the line on second down, broke through and fumbled, Eline recovering for Centre on the II.

The Panthers of Pitt closed out an impressive season today with a 16-to-0 victory over a Carnegie Tech eleven that stubbornly refused to be overwhelmed by a vastly superior team. A crowd of ,42.000 attended.

Pitt's triumph came in one swift forward passing sortie, a nonstop plunge by big Izzy Weinstock, the all-eastern fullback, and a safety that was a tribute to the virility of the Panthers' fast-charging linemen. It was Pitt's sixteenth triumph in the twenty-game series with the Plaid, a rivalry that had its inception in 1906. It gave the Panthers undisputed possession of the city championship and a fairly strong grasp on the eastern gridiron title. The first touchdown came late in the first period after a 50-yard march. Heinle Weisenbaugh, a speed demon fullback, accounted for thirty-three of the fifty yards.

Howdy O'Dell shot a rifle-like pass to Bob Hogan, who pulled In the heave on the 7-yard line and raced over the line. It was big Bob's only touchdown of his entire collegiate career, which he completed with today's game. The line-up: Carnegie (o). Pittsburgh (le).

Football Prospects for 1934. Chattanooga's football prospects for 1934 are none too bright, but they are not the worst in the world, thanks to a good band of yearling linemen, although ten men closed up their careers here yesterday. Ends appear to be the big problem, with both Ellis and Haley missing. The up-and-coming frGsh flankmen, Kintzling and Prumkin, are good. Tackles appear fair, with reserves an unknown quantity.

Good guards will again be plentiful. The center outlook la fair, with Blazek and Hays on hand. If Trew enters U. C. and Leydorf's knee heals after its recent Operation, the backfield layout will be good.

Ratigant Hornsby, Perry and McCall are returning regulars. Spitty Ellis, Cubine and Kelly will help considerably. Here Is the probable roster of the 1934 Moccasins: EndsRed Hundley, James Irvine, Fenton Kmtzling, Gabriel Prumkin, Grant Clark. Complete Second Season Undefeated, Run String of No Losses to Twenty.
