NASHVILLE, Get. 29 efts' onslaught, gave Vanderbilt a 12- to-0 victory over Georgia Tech today, fore Nashville's greatest football crowd. estimated at 25,000. It was Dixie who tossed 26-yard pass to Surheinrich for a touchdown in the first period and the same Roberta who dashed around end a few later for twenty-nine yards and er touchdown. After that swift-scoring opening ter there were a number of plays in spots.

Tech's defense tight-, ened and, aided by numemus Vanderbilt penalties, succeeded in keeping the, Commodore backfield under control, the final three periods. That huge 'Vanderbilt line was too, much for the hard-fighting Time and again they sought to penetrate the Corrunodore forward wall and often picked up a few yards, but could 1, make no sustained gains. Outside of two pretty dashee around end by Arthur, Tech's offense wm almost powerless. So hard was the Commodore line fighting that Tech WWI able to make but one first down in the first half of the contest and that down went to one of McArthur's two 20-yard dashes. Outside of Roberts' touchdown pass, the air attack of both teams went for naught.

There were frequent ti tu on with Robert4 being forced to the sidelines with an injury in the period. However, he returned in the but he was a marked man the Tech tackles swarmed about him when he sought to gain. Throughout the game. with one ception, Vanderbilt kept the ball in Tech territory or they fought for yardage in the center of the field. Tech got no nearer the Vandy goal than the 31-yard line.

That was in the third period. Vandy had numerous chances to score, two of which were In the first period, before the Commodore touchdowns were scored, Vandy to Tech's 1-foot line, but there the Jackets hurled them pack only to watch-. the driving Roberts back to flip the scoring pass to Surheinrich.

THRONG OF 65,000 FANS TOLLS AT GREAT TILT Pitt Boys, Battered Through Opening Quarters, Snap at Hoosiers With 45-Yard Run and Victory. PrrrsBuRGH, Oct. 29 Notre Dame eleven hailed as the greatest in the land went clown to a 12-to-0 defeat today before the Panther of Pittsburgh. In one of the greatest upsets in all football history, the enraged Panthers staged a dying fourth-quarter effort that sent the Green Grenadiers back to South Bend at the short end of the score to upset pregame predictions that Hunk Anderson's men would 'win by a wide margin. The famed "point a minute" football machine simply could not start functioning against Pitt's perfect defense.

Driven like sheep before the charge of eleven shepherds in bright green, the Panthers reeled through three periods of a struggle that held a mammoth crowd of 85,000 in the huge stadium on Pittsburgh's highest hill breathless with fear for.the home boys. Three times, once in each scoreless quarter, the Panthers staggered back under the drive of a team they say in the midwest is the best that ever came out of the Indiana university where Knute Rockne founded the greatest of modern football dynasties. From somewhere came strength in the Panther team. Into one mighty thrust Pittsburgh suddenly hurled every ounce left in the battered bodies of eleven youngsters who had taken every bit of Notre Dame's pounding for three quarters, almost without a single relief. Within the space of a single minute deep in the final quarter, the Panthers scored two touchdowns and the cocky Green raiders who had pranced so high, dominating the play up to that moment, fell apart.

Within seconds the remnants of what had been a great team were scattered en over the historical premises. Bob Hogan, Panther quarterback, who was one of the two to finish who did not start, snared one of Mike Koken's passes on his own 27-yard line and Notre Dame pressed as it always had been doing. Warren Heller and Mike Sebastian ripped inside Notre Dame's tackle for a dozen yards between them. Isedore Weinstock, a burly fullback, burst through center on a beautiful spinner for fifteen to the Raider 45- 3'ard line. Then Sebastian, a substitute who was taking the part of the ailing captain, Paul Heider raced for Notre Deme's end.

One halfback blocked out Paul Host, Raider end and captain. Sebastian sped for the far sidelines. Quickly he cut back, stepping daintily out of the arms of three headlong tacklers, and his battered mates had time to get in front of them. With fiendish precision, they cut down the Notre Dame secondary and Sebastian dashed across the goal without a hand having been laid upon him. Passing desperately as soon as he got his hands on the next kick-off, Al' McOulf, a substitute halfback, his second straight Into the arms of Ted Dailey, one of Pitt's two mighty! ends.

Dailey took the ball on a dead run es he came up from Notre Dame's 25-1 yard line. and in a flash was over the goal. Both attempts at the extra point were blocked. Perhaps the strangest picture of all was the sight then of a Notre Dame team, its assurance and cohesion absolutely destroyed, passing wildly like a bunch of high school kids in a de! moralized effort to come back. Never before has a Notre Dame team' of modern history been Scored upon twice in one minute.

Nothing like it has happened to the Green Raiders since Southern California, last fall. caught Notre Dame in the last period and came from behind to overcome a two-touchdown lead and win out, 18 to 14. With laterals and line drives working neatly, but for small gains, Notre Dame drove thirty-eight yards to Pitt's 23-yard line In the first quarter; marched and passed fifty to the Panther eighteen in the second quarter: drove forty yards to within eight of the goal in the third. and were pressing again after a 40-yard march in the fourth, when the lightning struck. Almost at the start of the fourth period Pittsburgh was in a hole that seemed bottomless.

Trying to punt, after another desperate stand, Bob Hogan was driven back to his 1-foot line. But he tried again. and through the arms of the Notre Dame forwards, he sailed a punt seventy yards in the high, cold wind to the Notre Dame 33-yard line. Notre Dame. through its early power, had a wide edge in first downs, counting sixteen to Pitt's six.

Notre Dame gained 173 yards from scrimmage, Pitt 164. Notre Dame completed ten out of twenty-nine forward paws for eighty-five yards of gain. while Pitt tried only three and completed none. The.victory gave the Panther an impreasive record without defeat this season. After beating Army, lit to 13.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 29 Tulane's Green Wave barely nosed out a. 8-to-0 over the Gamecocks from South Carolina before 10,000 spectators, the smallest crowd of the season. The score seemed unbelievable in the light of yardage gained by the two teams.

TUlane gained 331 yards, against thirty-seven from scrimmage and a total of 377 yards from scrimmage and passes over the visitors' fifty-eight yards. Three times Tulane set up the ball for a touchdown, but lacked the necessary punch to put it over. They fumbled and bungled within a fullback plunge of the goal. In the second quarter, Tulane lost the ball one inch from the goal, where Lemmon fumbled on a line plunge and McManus, Carolina left tackle, recovered. Then within a few minutes, Tu lane marched' the ball back to within one yard of the goal, where they lost it on downs.

These two plays were made with substitute halfbacks, Simons and Hodgins, in the line-up after they, with the aid of Lemmon, had led straight march down the field. In the fourth quarter, Dian Zimmerman, Tulane's star halfback, flashed old-time form by brilliant runs, the last a 38-yard spring to the 13-yard line, where he was stopped by Epps, Carolina's end. It looked like a touchdown, but Roberts dropped the ball after being hit by three Gamecocks and McManus again recovered. Carolina again tried desperately. for a break with long forward passes, but Zimmerman intercepted one on Carolina's 47-yard line, where the game ended.

At the opening of the game it looked like slaughter for the Gamecocks as Zimmerman in the first two minutes of play got away for a 37-yard run for a touchdown through left tackle. Roberts' place-kick for the extra point was blocked. Tu lane then opened an offense that looked as if it would sweep the field, but somehow the Greenies lacked touchdown punch. The Gamecocks played stubbornly on defense, but their offense was weak and the spectators were disappointed in their lack of color. Carolina never did seriously threaten to score and the amazing part of.

the game was the absence of the Green Wave's usual fire. Today was home-coming day for the alumni and during the half interval several hundred former lettermen paraded the field under the leadership of Federal Judge Rufus E. Foster. The freshmen were hazed at the same time by being forced to don baby clothes and play ring-around-rosy on the field. The game was the first football meeting between Tulane and South Carolina.

I don't think that should be allowed to detract from Pettitt's fine record of playing on four in a row and five in Mx years of play." He was with a winner in 1926 and was out of the game in 1927. Frank Darwin, S. I. C. official, says Brackett, of Tennessee, and Fortune, of Vandy, are two of the most underrated backs in the south.

It was on the heels of word from cincinnati saying Donie Bush was a 10-to-1 shot to be skipper, that the Associated Press story came out about the Reds seeking Rabbit Maranville.

After Brown's first punt. Jack Crickard rounded his right end and raced seventy yards over the Bears' goal line. It came on a shift play that drew most of the Brown forwards off-side, along with several of Crickard's own mates.

Some fans in this section have seen fit to criticize football officials on a point which has been changed by the new dead ball rule.

A few times here this season the ball carrier has hit the ground with his knee. then fumbled before the whistle blew. The referee has given the ball back to the team on offense. And howls have been loud and long. It is high time that those who have booed this be told that the ball is automatically dead when that knee, or any part of the body but hands and feet, touches the ground.

LEXINGTON, Oct. 29 clung to a 7-to-6 lead over Alabama for three periods here today, but finally the Crimson Tide staged a drive that gave it a 12-to-7 decision and its tenth consecutive victory over the Wildcats. Alabama made two fumbles in the first period. The Tide held for, downs and took -back the ball after the first one, but the second, when Chappell dropped a punt.

Shortly before the second fumble Alabama had scored after Holley had raced sixty yards around end and four more plays had sent him over. His kick was wide. For two more periods the teams battled with neither being able to make a serious threat. The old Alabarila power came back in the final period and a drive started from midfield enabled Holley to race around his left end ten yards to score.

Leslie missed the extra point kick. The Crimson Tide continued to sweep over the Kentucky players and as the whistle blew the Wildcats just managed to stop Holley on their 1-yard line.

CARTWRIGHT SAYS PENALTIES UNJUST McMinn Coach States Official in dentral Game Gave Him Permission to Protest.

James Cartwright, coach of the McMinn County High football team, stated in a letter to The Times yesterday he was penalized unjustly for alleged going onto the playing field without official permission in the McMinn-Central game here Friday. The coach, wh6 was penalized twice for a total of thtrty yards by Referee Jake Nicholson. declared Guy Sneed. headlinesman, gave him permlssion to go on the field each time and "then would not back up his statement." Sneed emphatically denied after the game he had given Cartwright permission to go on the field the two times the penalties were imposed. Coach Cartwright's letter follows: "In reply to your write-up covering the McMinn County-Central game, I wish to defend myself, and since your paper was big enough to make the statements it did about me, I sincerely believe you will allow the space for this article.

"I will admit I was on the field during the game three or four times to protest decisions that were made by the officials. Each time previous to the time I was penalized the officials granted the penalties, which were for two incomplete forward passes. Now, concerning the officials, I talked with Coach Petersen before the game and asked him to use Harry Million, from Cleveland. His reply was: 'We have plenty officials here in Chattanooga who will work our which is true enough. I have plenty of officials here in Athens Who will work my games, but when a team comes here to play they usually ask for out-of-town officials, which I always get.

The contracts we sign state that the officials must be agreed upon. I requested that Coach Petersen get officials of whom I knew something about, but the ones I wanted he didn't get. so as a last resort I told him any he got would be okeh with me. "Last year when Central played here In Athens I remember Coach McCoy was on the field several times to protest decisions that were made. which I believe is a coach's privilege.

Furthermore, he was not penalized. When a coach goes out every day during the week and works bard I believe he is due some consideration on Friday.
