SUXDA.Y, NOVEMBER 12, lttl 'THE BIRMINGHAM NEWS- Th South Greatest Newspaper Hr FIVE FACE TO FACE WITH DONAHUES LINESMEN WHO HAVE THEIR WORK CUT OUT FOR THEM IN STOPPING ROBERTS PLUNGES km, GEORGIA AND VIRGINIA BATTLE TO 6 TO 6 DRAW Both Fail To Kick Goal After Touchdown, And Another Tie Results. Winling And Brinskelle Star In Easy Victory Over Bulldog Eleven. A 1 squirmed until he finally wiggled himself loose from Dave's clutches. Whereupon he cut in around right end and ran 40 yards, eluding tackier after tackier until he was finally brought to earth on Georgia's 24 -yard line. The third period ended here, but on the third play of the fourth period Virginia scored.

To start the period Arnold hit center for three yards. Wilson added four more on an off-tackle buck. Arnold then stepped back and hurled a lateral pass to Foster, who carried the ball the remaining distance to the goal. Several times Foster was seemingly tackled, but he always managed to free himself. The touchdown cast a death-like pall upon the whole Georgia cheering section and as Charlie Fenw ick, Virginia tackle, who does all the drop kicking for the team, dropped back for his try for the point, several hundred came within an ace of fainting.

It vat one of those kinds of nerve-racking situations which only arise In fiction and one of those situations which make football the nation's greatest game. Fenwick received a perfect pass from center, but was rushed In kicking, three Georgia forwards breaking through. At that though, his kirk missed its mafk by scarcely a foot.

The toes of Richard MulvihiU and Charlie Fenwick failed In the lunch here Saturday arternoon and the Georgia-Virginia Day clash ended In another tie, the score being 6-tiU. The deadlock was the third played between the two teams in the last four years, the other game, staged last year, going to Georgia, 21 to 0. A crowd estimated at around 4.000 people, witnessed the contest, which was played under a cloudless sky, with a terrifically hot sun beating down upon the field and no breeze stirring from any direction. The f.eld was dry and dusty. But despite this ideal baseball weather, the game was the hardest fought ever staged on Sanford field, at least Dr.

S. V. Sanford, Georgia athletic director. thinks so. The battle was featured by hard and fierce tackles throughout and as a consequence numerous time outs were taken fur Injured men.

Neither eleven scored in the first hair, although both had ezccllcnt opportunities, the Invaders being within the Bulldogs 10-yard line twice and the Georgians having the oval within thc.r opponent 15-yard line once. Huge John Fletcher, Georgias stcl'ar halfback, tallied the Red and BlacV marker aeon after the second half got under way, when he intercepted a Virginia forward pass In midfield, and raced 53 yards to a touchdown. Mulvi-hills attempted drop-kick for the extra point was partially blocked, the ball going wide.

BY C. J. FLOURNO f. OBILE, Nov. 11 SpeciaL Three factor contributed to the downfall of Howard College at Monroe Park yesterday.

These were Captain Winling. Halfback Fred Bna-skeile and the inability of the Bull Dogs io grasp an opportunity. Ths final score was 4s-ft. Without prejudice, and without fear cotitidicanm. it may be said that Howard was beaten before she went nto the game.

Even before Brinskelle slipped over the line the first five minutes of the game for a touchdown, the lack of srint was apparent In the Howard line. Had it not been for the efforts of one or two of th visiting tiackf.eld and line, the Birmingham colieg-ans. would have gone under by a far heav ler score. Forward passes and a senes of straight football plays contributed to the downfall of the eleven from Birmingham. It was a forward pass, Brcwne to Brinskelle that netted the first touchdown, and it was these same passes that brought them up from a (5-yard penalty In three downs.

There was only one t.me in the game that the Bull Dogs threatened to approach within striking distance of goal. In the final quarter, when with but four of five minutes to go, the visitors mads a last effort to have the satisfaction of scoring. The be was brought to the 23-yard line, but there it stayed. Four touchdowns were registered Into the firt quarter. These came from straight football tactics.

And despite two heavy penalties, one of these occurred when Fullback Browne was sent to the showers by Referee Stroud foe rough. ng. Half the d. stance to th goal was the penalty, and with the ball on the 10-vard line the Hillians had to com 45 yards to get anywhere. Forward passes turned the trtek.

Coughlin and Miller figured chiefly In Sewanee's win over the Birmingham Southern Panthers today by the score of 21 to 0. The first score uf made In the second quarter. Coughlin's long run was halted by Gandy, the crack Panther end, one yard from the Bradford and Morrow and skirting the ends for lengthy gains. Gil Iteece, who relieved him. tore off two spectacular runs, one for 31 yards from fake punt formation and another for 29 yards, being stopped both times by Gregg.

Vanderbilt's scoring represented a field goal by Wakefield in the first period from the 21 -yard line bad been after a Commodore march scored, having chalked up 78 so far this season. He bat starred In every game so far this year and is still going strong, but perhaps his most effective work was against Georgia when, after being stopped trying the ends, began smashing through the line for gains, ranging from five to 26 yards. His work was so good that one of Centres coaches who viewed the game said he was the best back he had seen this season. Its John's last season and he will be sorely lssed in the village of the Plains. Shlrllng Dependable.

He is a great defensive man even though a little light for a linesman. His best games to date were the Centre game last year and the re- ing Klimek po.son.
