the Blue Devils fumbled the punt and Tech recovered on tiie Duke 31 That was the ball game and enly lack of time on tiie dock kept Tech from racking up another touchdown The Yellow Jackets were on the Duke seven when the game ended It was a gruelling duel with tiie breaks of the game determining the final outcome Tech knew it had been In a tussle at tiie end and the Dodd-men were thankful for tiie
