Line Attack Beats Sewanee TIGERS "OPEN UP" IN LAST HALF AND SUPPLY THRILLS Sewanee's End Runs Have Volt Nerv ous In Last Half and Game Ends With Sewanee in Possession 25 Yards Front Tie Tennessee's terrific line attack crashed through Sewanee's plucky defense in the first half of yesterday's struggle at ndrews field and brought the Volunteers a victory in one of the most fiercely contested games seea on a local field in years It was the first victory- for Tennessee over Sewanee since 1902 and gives the Vole a tie for the championship of the I A A provided that they win their Turkey day game from Kentucky State which seems assured The game was won by a score of 14 to 7 When it ended Sewanee was speeding down field by spectacular forward passes and end runs and was on Tennessee's 25-yard line with a tying touchdown in close prospect It was one game that went exactly true to the advance indications of the dope: Tennessee won but only after a bitter struggle in which Sevyanee threatened to snatch a victory or tie the score time after time Tennessee showed great superiority in smashing through the line Sewanee excelled in the aerial game and around the ends The Volunteer backfield rushed through great yawning abysses opened up by their hefty forwards the Tiger backs sprinted 1 around the ends or hurled rifle shot for' ward passes over the line The famous forward pass play May to Carroll did not produce during the game It was called only once and both times the Sewauee forwards were through on May while he was looking for a place toiard which to throw the ball The Vole gained but little except eight through their line or just 'ttutside the tackles Through the line they used frequently a delayed pass play that completely mystified the Tiger defenders especially 'in the early periods of play The same delayed pass play but arousal the end Was partly responsible for the first touchdown It mystified the Tiger smashing halves on several occasions and the Tennessee backs got around unhindered with WY the secondaries to stop them Later in the game hoWe4er the play was abandoned around the end and Tennessee for part shot right through the line where there was usually a hole The Vol line more than lived up to advance assertions that It Is the best in the south Sewanee may have made the mistake of trying line plays too often in the early periods Tolley and Dobbins sought to hnd a weakness in the left side of Teanesiee's forward defense anti succeeded for part of the first period Through this aperture -Big" railer shot tor repeated gams and was cinelly instrumental through it in the scoring ut sewanee's only touchdown Tolley and 1-almer helping by short tackle rushes Tolley boon tound that the Tennessee line was adamant abd there was no use to waste the strength of his mauy backs in flinging them against a stone NV Then the Tiger leader "opened up" The effect was electrical Around the tuns swept the Tiger for gains ot from a to la yards Tolley leading lint close up and others gaining during the entire second half they kept Tiger supporters in a fever of excitemeut and hope Tennessee was never disconcerted however and managed to stave oit another score all the counters having been made in the opening half Great was the gameness shown by the Sewantee team in the second half Qutplayed decisively by Tennessee in the opening chapter save for their one rush across the held the Tigers swapped blow for blow Up and down the held the two teams fought and bled Tennessee went through the line until a fumble a Tiger breaking through or some other contributing cause led to the loss of the ball Then back would come Sewanee around the ends and across into 'irennessee's territory again until a slip in the damp going a forward pass that went wrong or some turn of ill-fortune would give the Vole the ball once more The Tigers kept gradually gaining the advantage however and as the game ended two brilliant forward passes in succession put them in hearing of the Tennessee goal only to have the referee's final whistle rudely interrupt their final desperate dash for a dog-fall score Those to whom especial honors are due in the Tennessee line are hard to pick The entire outfit worked like a perfect machine on offense The 'thole" was nearly always there when the back was called to go through While Doh-tins outplayed Bayer to some extent when 6ewanee had the ball Dobbins played back on defense and McLean made "holes" just as did the others Big Kerr and Kelly both broke through repeatedly Carroll's game at end was hardly up to his usual standard on defense 'out he was effective on offense Ad of the Tennessee Cameron Rainey Tromasson and went through the holes in the Tiger line together with both ends Vowell and Carroll Two athletes showed magnificent improvement over last season Lindsay's line plunges were thrillers Ile got through the hole made for him as did the others but then be plunged and wriggled for many yards further Though not having the momentum of some line plungers seen locally he was slippery as an eel getting by crack tacklers on many occasions and going yards after it (seemed that he was hopelessly stopped Quarterback May is the other scintilla-tor May was the chief and almost the only Vol back who could gain around the ends the two speed merchants Cameron and Rainey being unable to get away The little quarter was In fine touchdown in close prospect It was one game that went exactly -1 to Carroll did not produce during the game It was called only once and both times the Sewauee forwards were through on May while he was looking fumbled for 05-yard Joss- Thomasson grabbed the ball from under the Sewanee player and rat forty yards across the Intij LL line but was brought back the referee's whistle having blown while Palmer held tli ball Tolley failed to gain around left eud Cameron knocked down a forward pass Clark punted thirty yards to May who made a fair catch Tennessee then began a

yards for three yards more to the 2-yard line Palmer was injured and Fort replaced him for Sewanee Lindsay put the ball within a foot of the goal line With the players all bunched and the road straight ahead impregnable May flung himself outside left tackle for a touchdown Carroll lcked goal Tennessee 34 Se-wanes 7 Carroll kicked off and Tolley returned it twenty-five Yards Tennesse was penalized for off-side play Talley got four yards over right tackle Fort tried left and was thrown back A mussed up signal caused a loss Clark punted thirty- five yards to May Cameron slipped and 'failed to gain May also failed to gain Kelly punted forty-five yards to Tolley who Made a brilliant 20-yard return as time was called Third Period Rainey replaced Cameron for Tennessee Clark kicked off for Sewanee to May who returned ten yards Lindsay plunged for three yards Rainey got it five yards Fort got around left for a great 20-yard end run Parker plunged for four yards Carroll spilled the next play with a great tackle Parker was tried again and lacked an inch of making it first down the ball going over on Tennessee's 43-yard line There was a fumble on the first play but Tennessee recovered Thomason shot through 4he line for twelve yards Carroll plunged for two yards Rainey furabled but Lindsay recovered Vovvell plunged for seven yards Lindsay gained one yard barely making it first down Carroll bucked for one yard Lindsay for four yards but on the next play the Sewanee line caved through on Lindsay May called a forward pass but held the ball trying to find an opening for a throw and was downed in the center for four Kelly punted thirty-five yards out of bounds It was Sewanee's ball on her own 13-yard line Kerr broke through on Parker and threw him for a loss- Fort failed to gain Clark punted thirty yards out of bounds Carroll plunged for six yards May made four yards but was brought back and Sewanee was penalized for off-side play yards out of bounds This gave Sewanee the ball on Tennessee's 35-yard line The Vo Is defended fiercely how ever the line caving two plays and Carroll flinging -Tolley viciously back On the fourth down Thomasson intercepted a forward pass and the danger was averted The 'Tigers held and this time Kellytore off a long high spiral for forty-five yards Parker made it first down in three successive plunges Palmer fumbled and Thomasson sneaked the ball and hurried up the field across the line amid a riot of joy in the Tennessee stands The touchdown was not allowed however as the referee's whistle had blown The Vo Is held and Clark punteu to Tennessee's 20-yard line From this attack that carried them steadily up field without losing the ball Lindsay was the principal gainer rarely failing to annex at least six or eight yards when called through the -Tine On the 1-yard line May seeing that the Sewanee line was bunched and impregnable In the center flung himself outside tackle for the Vols' second and last touchdown Carroll kicked the goal Tennessee kicked off and forced typunt and Sewanee duplicated Tolley delivered a pretty 2)-yard return as the period enOed Rainey Enters Game In Third Period Rainey entered the game in the third period replacing Thomason but was used little his bad leg slowing him up perceptibly The third period was a game of see-saw with punts end runs and line smashes alternating Fort made one pretty 20-yard run Thomasson came back in the game replacing Cameron and made a 12-yard dash Rainey Intercepted a pass one pretty play Tennessee managed to get the ball in Sewanee territory by holding for downs and later recovering a fumble Early in the fourth period Cameron was sent in to try a drop-kick from the 20-yard line It went wide for a touchback 'Phis was Tennessee's last chance Sewanee commenced immediately a series of brilliant end runs up field which threw a chill of apprehension into the camp of the Volunteers Tolley Fort and occasionally Edmond carried the ball for from eight to fifteen yards at a time until Tennessee finally held for downs on her 15-yard line Rainey made his longest gain just here an eight-run dash outside tackle The Vols plugged for three more first downs before they were held and Sewanee got the ball on downs on her 33-yard line Then came the last desperate stand of the Tigers Tolley filed around end Two forward passes hist the ground lowt a third Ed Boyd to Tolley netted a 15-yard gain Tolley ran around end for four yards and then another forward pass Boyd to Fort enabled the latter to make a great 30-yard run This put the ball on Tennessee's 20-yard sine for a first down The watches of the timekeepers were ticking fast and as Tolley hesitated on his next play the final 'whistle blew Line-np: Tennessee Sewanee Carroll I Parker

intercepted by Thomasson Three plunges by Lindsay Thomasson and Carroll netted seven yards Kelly printed forty yards and fettle and every time he called himself produced something substantial Tolley's great sprinting and end runs and returning kicks featured principally for the Tigers The two-beaded quarterback had one of his best days and was undoubtedly the individual star of the game A surprise was sprang by little Fort the sub quarter Going in at half early in the second half he was good for a series of speedy sprints displaying all sorts of speed 'Big" Parker was another S'ewanee scintillator in the opening half his line plunges being especially productive Coach Cope shifted his backfield men repeatedly and all who were used showed ability to get over ground The 'Vols "laid" for Dobbins but the latter got many tackles as usual AIL four of Chattanooga's latest additions to the Tiger squad got into the game Mersaacs started at end and played throughout a good steady and consistent game though not spectacular Clark stayed until the last two minutes of play He was used but little in rushing the ball In kicking after one costly fumble he and Capt Kelly of Tennessee had a nifty duel with honors nearly even Both sent their punts high down the field with plenty of time for the ends to cover Kelly pulled off several short ones while Clark's were uniformly for good distance Clark-has cultivated a new asset that of throwing the forward pass He hurls the ball on a line like a rifle shot and when the plays are developed a little further they will be excessively dangerous for the enemy Ed Boyd entered the game late replacing Clark and threw two perfect forward passes just as the game ended Tally distinguished himself with one kick off across the line for a touchdown Both he and Roublac were injured early and did not re-enter the game Fumbled Pass Dazes Sewanee at Start Sewanee won the toss and decided to defend the north goal Carroll kicked off After three plays Clark fumbled the pass for the kick Vowell was oh the ball far up in Sewanee territory After an 8-yard plunge by Lindsay Tennessee fumbled Talley recovered and made a pretty 20-yard run before be was downed Palmer made a 10-yard run but Tennessee then held for downs Tennessee plunged up the field sixty yards without losing the ball Three delayed pass end runs were tried for good gains otherwise the damage was done strictly by ripping through the lines May sneaked through for the touchdown from the 1-yard line Lindsay punted out to Thomaeson and Carroll booted the goal Tigers Make Countermarch Up Field and Score The game's biggest surprise and one that set the Tiger settions of the stand ablaze with joy followed Carroll's ensuing kick off Tolley returned the boot for a brilliant 35-yard dash and the Tigers kept on the goal line without interruption A great forward pass on a line from Clgrk to Tollev saved the ball at one juncture A Tennessee player partially blocked the pass but Tolley leaped in the air and brought it down Several good end runs by Tolley combined with line smashes of Parker and Palmer kept the ball going and the end of the first period found Sewanee on Tennesee's 1-yard line On the first play of the succeeding period Palmer shot over tackle for a touchdown Tally kicked the goal tying the score Tennessee Duplicates Tigers' Rush to Goal Tally kicked off across the line for a touchback Tennessee started through the line Lindsay making a great 10-yard plunge but a penalty for holding set them I All of the disorder was good-natured Chief Hill and Sheriff Bush knew the nature of the crowd with which they had to deal and left the handling of downtown streets to the ordinary force Many Antics Played By Loyal Collegians From 10 am until 2 pm the crowds Market street entertained in various with a small dummy perchedoa a long pole He was copiously draped In Sewanee colors and so was his doll He held the doll aloft walked seriously along the crowded streets as though he was on a business errand and appeared to be a total stranger to everyone Shortly before the game he encountered a band of Tenneosee rooters in front of the Palace on Market street and for some time they made sport of him by saluting his doll in derision throwing kisses at it and offering him milk bottles but the erperienced Sewaneeite smiled not He coolly held his doll aloft and watched his tormentors until he had tired of their antics when he walked sedately off This same band of Tennessee enthusiasts came near cursing an accident and furnished some thrills when the man departed with his doll They stooa ka the narrow passage-way between parked cars and the street-car lines and swung automobiles as they passed either cheering or groaning according to the colors with which the machine was decorated Several were thrown to the pavement but they always came up smiling Not finding an automobile large enough Lindsay plunged for six yards Vowell for five yards but the irrepressible Dobbins was through on Thomasson Tennessee was penalized for holding and the Vo Is' last good chance to score was lost May attempted a forward pass which was blocked Byer ly replaced Perry for Sewanee Clark intercepted a forward pass Fort circled right for four yards and Tolley dashed for six in the same territory Tolley fumbled on the next play and

truck' they could find and paraded the streets before going to the game singing and cheering They confiscated a drum and some tin pans and made plenty of noise All day and far into the night the streets resounded with the ring of bells and it seemed as though every man woman and child in all of Chattanooga wore one Some had bells on their fingers some had them on their toes and others had them tied on their coats or hats One or two were seen with a bell on each shoe making a noise like a Christmas sleigh More than :2000 were distributed during the day by a local firm None of them had been broken up to midnight last night judging from the jingle they kept up Great Crowd Handled Quickly at Ball Park Forty street cars were parked on East End and Harrison avenues when the crowd was turned out of the grandstand and there was no unreasonbie delay in getting the big crowd back to the city "That's the best street car work I ever saw" said one of the Knoxville merchants "If that crowd had been in one of our parks or in any other city in the south many of them would have been forced to wait five ten or evert fifteen minutes Chattanooga should feel proud of this feat" At the game Tennessee rooters occupied the first base bleachers and the south section of the grandstand "Red" Mathews and Bill Gowan garbed in white stood on the field and directed them displaying great ability both as leaders and as acrobatic contortionists Rain interfered with the plans of the Tennessee crowd following the game and the victory was not celebrated in a manner in keeping with the spirit and intention of the victors A big parade on Market street was started but rain soon drove the enthusiasts to shelter Not all of these who came from Knoxville and points along that line
