Under Ideal weather conditions, and before one of the largest crowds that ever attended an athletic exhibition In West End Park, the University of Ton-inessee defeated the University of Alabama at football yesterday afternoon by the score of 5 to 0. The lone score was made shortly after the opening of the game. Tennessee, securing the ball near the middle of the field began a series of line plunges, none of them gaining more than a few yards, which placed the ball on Alabama's twenty-yard line. Here In five successive hurdles by Tennessee's star full back. McAllister, the pig skin was pushed over the line for the only tally of the day.

Following the next kick-off the Crimson began a fierce attack in an effort to balance the score, and by a number of end plays, In whiih Taifback Burks took the prominent part, the foioec ball was foioed to Tennessee's ten-yard line. Hete with a goal almost in sight, and with Alabamas rooters wild with delight, time was called. In ti second half, Tennessee's former strong offensive weakened noticeably, chiefly because Alabama was learning to stop the hurdling trick. Alabama, however, showed little increase in her offensive, and the ball near the middle of the field most of the time. Just before time was called Alabama, by a supreme effoit, forced the leather to Tennes-ee's ten yard line, but a fumble spoiled the second opportunity of 'the game, and when Tennessee kicked to midfield there was no more hope.

THE HUMAN GRASSHOrPER. The hurdling of McAllister was the undoubted feature of the contest. The play comparatively new In the South, worked with little difficulty. The fullback. dashing at thp line, would leap in the air just before the impact, and, aided by his balfbgcks.

the body would be flung above the beads of the crouching line men. Time and again the supporters of the rival team were forced to applaud the biilliant method of play. The honor of the victory belongs in a large measure to his Individual elfoits. For Alabama Burks, the black haired halfback, excelled, especially at running with the ball. lie was quick to get oit and slippery to hold.

At one time an end run of twenty-five yards, by Burks, set the Crimson supporters cheering, but the leather was brought bai on an off-side play. The game was fiercely contested and both sides were guilty of rough tactics, though no serious outbreak marred the exhibition. Neither team showed up in good form, the Individual work alone being the feature. Alabamas formations were the better, especially on the end plays. Tennessee was fairly quick in starting, but interference was ragged.

The crowd that witnessed the exhi-tion filled the grandstand, smoker and bleachers, while several hundred appeared In traps on tbe other side of the field. Perfect weather conditions combined with the Thanksgiving holiday. comb'-ed to give the game an added interest. THE LINE-UP. Following is the line-up: Alabama.
