A Coming back strong in a wild third quarter, Tennessees Volunteers passed and ran their way to a 26-7 victory over Clcm-son's Tigers here Saturday. The Vols struck once before halftime, added two tallies in the third period and another in the fourth, after finally finding their way through a strong Clemson line. The lone touchdown of the visitors came on a 38-yard march, with Watt' Stewart, Sid Tinsley and Bill Rogers going through the Vol Rogers made the score.

Purples Beat Lee High, 120, On Ray's Runs Ity ARNOLD FINNKFROSK Sports Editor Tlmcs-Union JACKSONVILLE. Oct. Robert E. Lee's Generals were blown off their feet by the Purple Hurricane of Boys High in the third period Saturday night, but in the other three they kept the hatches firmly battened down and the heavily favored Atlanta eleven had to be content with a 12-0 triumph at the Municipal Stadium.

A disappointingly slim crowd of 5,000 spectators saw the under-! dog local eleven, beaten 28-0, last week by Miami Senior High's Stingarees, who, the previous week, had lost to Boys High by a similar margin, carry the fight tc the invaders in the first quarter and more or less dominate most of the opening half. GENERALS STIFFEN 'After Coach Shorty Doyal'a forces exploded for two touchdowns in the third period, both of which were scored by the speedy and elusive 150-pound Dick Ray, the Generals warded off further scoring Hurricanescoring gestures. The unbeaten and untied Atlanta eleven, apparently headed for the Southern schoolboy football championship, was on the defensive most of the first half, but near the end reached Lee's three, but couldn't get across. 43-YARD RUN Then In the opening minutes of the third quarter, Ray snared a quick-kick by A1 Walker, while in full stride on the Lee 43. and sprinted for the game's first touchdown.

Ray raced down the sidelines to the 16. where he cut to his left and eluded two would-be tacklers. Dirk Sewell's left-footed placckick wns wide. Lee was unable to gain on the subsequent kickoff and Walker was forced to kick. Ray returning 17 yards to the Generals' 44.

In a prewar year we might have become disgusted with the fumbling, blocked kicks and dropped passes of the Georgians, or the seeming inability of the Tigers to hang together anything that resembled a first-rate offense. But this was American football, being played hy a couple of clean-playing outfits of American lads, some of whom have already had an active part in the bigger game of war and others who are in the finishing stages of getting ready to add their licks to those millions of others in battles around the world. WOUNDED WARRIORS It was hard to concentrate on the action that was taking place below us on Grant Field as we rat and sad defeats. It was as pleasant to be back with old friends in the press box, friends whove meant much through the years. When Ed Danfort asked us to do a little yarn on sidelights of the game, he didnt expect this.

We meant to observe tackles, passes, punts and all of that, but we couldn't. It appears that we enjoyed too much just being there, back at a a football guine, to do any serious reporting. But now we can tell you from experience that one of the big thrills awaiting millions of returning servicemen when this war ing was something (o write home about, but he wasn't going to write anything.

I thought we made enough yard age and downs and all that sort of thing to win most of the usual ball games.

But this wasnt one of the usual kind of ball games. The boys just couldnt seem to click, dropping passes and losing the jump when they had something that looked like a 'start. And that blocked punt.

It was Fenimore who sparked renewed Aggie offensives, both on the ground and in the air, as the Tulsans were caught by surprise at the Aggie drive.

Mr.

Meany takes the other side and definitely. "Hie charge is made in the East at one time or another In every football season that the South still Is fighting the Civil War. You heard a lot of It over the week-end when Georgia Tech rather surprisingly beat a superior Navy team. Almost every time the holler goes up, it Is after a Southern team has scored an upset. Somehow, you dont hear so much of it when the Northern team wins.

On those occasions the Civil Wsr is an historic event which happened fourscore years ago. When a Southern team wins, you get the Impression that Appottomax was just last week. It Is true that Southern teams play with more fire than Eastern teams. That isnt exactly a crime, nor evidence of Insularity. It is eerely that there is more enthusiasm for football in Dixie, where it is THE sport, not having to share the spotlight with major league baseball, pro football, big time boxing or daily horse racing.

Enthusiasm is contagious. The fervor of the fan infects the player, be he from the North or South. One of the best football players Georgia ever had was the scion of that fine old South- 62 PEACIITREE ST. 4.
