Beattie did well that first day and writers gathered to interview him. "Heck," said Feathers, "all I did was get behind Nagurski. Suction pulled me through the line.

The battering of Nagurski is taking effect after thirteen years. The Big Train. Some friends and admirers of Walter Johnson, the Big Train, honored the former Senator pitcher last night at a testimonial dinner in Washington. The occasion was his fiftieth birthday anniversary. Cliff Blakenshlp, injured catcher and acting scout for Washington in 1907, signed Johnson, He went to see the Swede in Idaho and watched the long-armed hurler pitch a shut-out Investigation brought out the Information that Johnson had hurled nine consecutive shut-outs.

So Johnson was signed to a Washington contract on the spot. The Pittsburgh Pirates passed up chance at Johnson, having been tipped off about him before the Senators were. Fred Clarke, Pirate manager, said his team was all set and ready to break camp so he muffed the chance to sign the Big Train who won forty games, 1 to 0, and lost twenty by the same score. It is a revealing score 1 to 0. And Johnson figured in sixty such ball games.

Alabamas Crimson Tide, thanks to a thrilling, heroic field goal in the waning minutes, foiled on undefeated and untied today with a 9-to-6 conquest over a scrapping Tulane Green Wave. It was the seventh straight victory for the red regiment from Tuscaloosa, which continued its Southeastern conference championship drive and Rose Bowl hopes before more than 31,000 spectators in Tulane stadium. Battled to a 6-to-6 standstill for fifty-eight minutes, in which the fighting Oreenies staged a spectacular goalline stand late in the fourth period, the Crimson Tide pulled victory out of the fire through the trusty toe of a gangling sophomore. The big clock at the end of the field said two minutes remained to play. Alabama had the ball on Tu-lanes 23 and two long passes had failed.

Coach Frank Thomas gambled on a field goal. In the fray rushed big Sandy Sanford, a 204-pound end from Adona, Ark. Field General Joe Kilgrow called for the place-kick. Halfback George Zivich knelt. The ball came back and the Arkansas lad nonchalantly booted the ball across the uprights for the sensational victory margin.

Barely Clears Bar. The ball, kicked beautifully, barely kept its height to clear the cross bar, but as it fell slowly acros-, it marked the detonation of a wild uprising on the Alabama bench and handed defeat to a Tulane team that actually deserved no worse than a tie. It was a rough and tumble game, with Tulanes gridders, previously unconquered within the conference, scoring midway of the first period after blocking an Alabama punt to get possession on the Tide 18- Line plays carried to the 2. Fullback John Andrews lunged over for the score. Warren Brunners try for the extra point was smothered.

Trailing by a touchdown as the third period opened, Alabama unloosed a sensational attack that produced a touchdown after an 86-yard drive, featuring the running of Kilgrow, Zivich, Charley Holm, and the end-around dashes of Ends Perron Shoemaker and Tut Warren. After Warren had skirted end for twenty-four yards to place the ball on the Tulane 9, Shoemaker added six and Kilgrow hit the line a yard. On the next play. Quarterback Vic Bradford crashed over-for the touchdown. Kilgrow barely missed the extra point.

i Alabama got a break midway of the fourth period when Herky Moseleys kick was downed on the Tulane 2 by Shoemaker. Quarterback Stanley Nyhans kick from behind the goal was blocked by Warren and it was Alabamas ball on the Waves 9. A penalty advanced It to the 1, but Tulanes gallant team sensationally checked Alabamas four line thrusts and took the ball. Nyhan kicked out to the 43 and Kilgrow raced back twenty yards to the Tulane 23. Kilgrow tried a long pass to Shoemaker and another to Holm, but they failed.

Then Sanford came in to kick the pay-off field goal The line-ups: Alabama (), Merrill Monaky Cox Bostick R.O Rvba Shoemaker Bradford Kilerow L. Zivich Holm Talane IS).

NEWLAND, Associated Press Sporte Writer. BERKELEY, Nov. 6. An Inspired University of Washington team exploded the myth of University of Californias football invincibility today by holding the Bears to a scoreless tie, an upset unequaled in the far west this year.

An intercepted pass soon after the third quarter opened, gave Washington the ball on Californias 49-yard line. The warridrs from the north dug their cleats in California territory most of the time thereafter. In the third period they pushed the ball to the Bears 30-yard marker. In the final quarter they were within sight of goal, once on the 30, once on the 48 and finally on the 21-yard line.

With twenty-five seconds to play, a Washington field goal, kicked from the 28-yard line by Fullback A1 Cru-ver, sailed wide.

Only four minutes remained. When Wolfe gave Texas a triumph that had been denied it on five different occasions in a chiliftig skirmish that saw the Longhorns outplay Baylor all the a ay.

(Jut of the Southwest conference dungeon came the savage Texas team, doped to absorb the same licking that Baylor had meted out to six straight foes. But Coach D. X. Bible's Texans, victors in only one game out of six played until today, owned the Baylor game from the start. Wolfes field goal was the clincher, but it was the nimble feet of Jud Atchison, his halfback playmate, and Wolfes owqpower drives off the Baylor tackles that bad Baylor on its heels constantly.

It was yardage every time that pair packed the ball. Midway in the first period Texas put across its first touchdown. The Wolfe-Atchison combine pecked away at the Baylor tackles and moved downfield to the 18, where Atchison broke over center, cut sharply to the left and legged it across the goal line. Wolf missed the try for point. Bullet Bill Patterson, Baylor's Bomber, evened the score soon after the start of the second period.

His pass to Carl Brazell was completed on the 27 and Milton C'Crary Evans, substitute back, took a lateral and scurried to the 10. From there Patterson sent a perfect touchdown pass to Brazell.

Matusek Hit on Head, Recovers After Game Bobby Matusek, University of Chattanooga end, who was carried fighting from the Birmingham-Southern game yesterday afternoon, recovered from the blow to his bead. Coach Serdppy Moore reported last night. "He was just knocked out, and got aQ right later on," the mentor declared, and he will be ready for practice next BY AL SHARP.

Aroused to fighting fury, the University of Chattanooga football team smashed baclc at Birmingham-Southern yesterday afternoon in the last Quarter to pull within one point of the Invading Panthers and lost valiantly, 19 to IS. in as exciting a game as 3,100 fans ever hope to see. Like eleven live wires torn loose from their moorings, the Moccasins crackled through the air and over land to overcome a 19-to-6 lead and then blow a fuse when the extra point meant everything. It was a tough game to lose, for the Moccasins put all they had in those last two attacks. And they deserved a better deal from the football gods In this home-coming game against Panthers who looked like giants.

Johnny Nardo and Thurman Toes) Scott were magnificent during those last minutes when the Moccasins turned on all their power. Bob Matusek, Hugh Johnson, Jug Earle, Bob Sutton. Mike Kopcha and Olen Nations were opening up holes then splitting the line for the backs who were aching to romp. Johnny Nardo, the Iron man blocker, took scoring honors in the hair-curl-, ing gapte, which saw Birmingham-Southern tally in the first quarter, U. C.

tie the count in the second, the Panthers rack up two more counters in the third and the Moccasins come surging back for everything but the extra point in the final period. A score for every period and two in the third and fourth for good measure were the order of the day. Spectators had no time to ponder during this hell-for-leather contest it was one of those things. Past Paves Panther Way. A long pass paved the way for the Panthers' first score.

Hal Wade allowed Bratcher, big Panther end, to get by him and snare McMichaels toss on the Moccasins' 30, running to the U. C. 2 i -yard line before Scott knocked him out of bounds. The pass pla? started on the Panther 43, the ball traveling forty yards through the air. It was good for fifty-four and a half yards.

Proctor plunged over tor the touchdown from the 2-foot line a tew plays later. The Moccasins came back to score after Roger Frank had intercepted a pass on the Invaders' 43 and sprinted to the 27. Scott, faking the ball to Frank, the tailback, ran back, whirled and fired a perfect pass to Nardo, who dashed across the goal line untouched. The ball carried about fifteen yards, Nardo racing out to the left and cutting back sharply in time to take it. It was a perfect play and pass, catching the opposition flat-footed.

Unusual Play Scares. The Panthers scored a second time in the third quarter, with Perry leading the way. Perry made the tally. On the third touchdown for the winners. Perry took the ball from Matusek after he had caught Scott's pass and turned to lateral.

Perry raced forty-four yards for the score. Bratcher, who had missed a place-kick for a field goal early in the game and the other two attempts for extra points, made the one point that told the tale. His plack-kicks had been wide, but close, all day and this one was well between the uprights. Kopcha's interception of a pass on the U. C.

30 started the next drive. Scott ducked through for twenty-five yards on a beautiful delayed play. A few plays later, Scott pulled the same one for eighteen yards. Matusek took Scotts pass coming back, placing the ball on the Panther 8, The pass was "v-jrood for fifteen yards, several plays gong for naught. On the fourth down, Nardo scooted In to take Scotts touchdown pass on the same play which had scored for the Moccasins earlier In the game.

Matuseks place-kick was wide by Inches. The next touchdown drive started with Nardo fumbling a low center pass In the end cone behind his own goal line. Nardo, making one of the brainiest plays fans ever saw at U. C. picked up the ball ha was supposed to kiefe and spotted a receiver for a pass.

He tossed a long, high ball. Vines knocking the pass into Kopchas hands. Kopcha was downed on the U. C. 18.

Passes from See Page Thirteen, Column One. the to 12, and had backed the Moccfasin to the 8-yard line. Nardo was in fake punt formation behind his own goalline. He fumbled the low pass from center, picked it up and, from the midst of several Panthers, th ew the ball high from the end zone down the field, aimed at a receiver on he 24-yard line. Vines rushed in tokhock the ball down.

He did smack into the arms of Mike Kopcha, the man who centered the ball. It looked as if Nardo was hopelessly hemmed in behind the goal for a safety when he dropped the bad pass from center. Seconds later the Moccasins were marching down the field to their third touchdown. Because well, because Nardo made up his mind in a hurry. Quick thinking, its called.

He was supposed to pass, but not from the midst of Panther. Now take a look at the play as caught by the camera and see what you think of the action. The Big Apple.
