defense Saturday and held unbeaten Auburn the nation's second ranked football power to a 7-7 tie in their Southeastern Conference battle Thus the Yellow Jackets gave Auburn a taste of its own for Auburn's string of 17 straight victories was built on a defense rated the best Dodd Plays It Safe Auburn dominated toe first half and scored early in the second period When Tech crashed through for its touchdown In the -fourth quarter Coach Bobby-' Dodd played it safe rather than gamble for the two-point conversion which would have brought victory if good or defeat if missed Tommy Wells a sophomore kicking specialist coolly booted toe tying point In the final seconds of the game Weils tried a field goal-from toe Auburn 39 but it was' short and off line as toe final' whistle blew 1 But even a tie with the titantie Tigers was hailed ai a moral -victory for Tech by the capacity crowd of 44726 and the Yellow Jacket fans went wild Until Tech quarterback Fred Braselton intercepted an Auburn pass and returned it 16 yards to 1 the visitors 36 Tech had never seriously threatened The Jackets were held to a lone first down in the first half Two Braselton passes to Frank Nix and Jerome Green took the ball to the Auburn 11 Then Braselton took aim at Jack Rudolph and toe Tech end made a falling catch at toe one after Tommy Lorino tipped the ball into the air but couldn't bat it down BraarHoa Goes Over It took Braselton three qiiar -terback sneaks to ram 'It toe final yard The flashing feet of Lorino end sophomore fullback Ed Dyas broke defense briefly in the first quarter Dyas zipped 18 yards to the Tech 29 and Lorino zigzagged 26 more to the three as the first period ended Dyes lugged it two yards into the end zone on the second play of the second quarter Quarterback Lloyd Nix who kept toe pressure on Tech with his deadly roll out option plays kicked the point a Auburn Toed ITS (IS NICK BUONI (16) MEMPHIS STATE QUARTERBACK PICKED UP 12 YARDS BEFORE BEING TACKLED BY JOE
