Gugin machine to n 3–⁠3 deadlock on Dudley field. The Commodores had fig. ured on romping on the Tennessee out tit, but the eleven that faced Vandy Saturday was quite different from the decrepit bunch that had been pictured by the Tennessee critics. Josh Cody managed to get a field goal, which was all that Vandy could compile. Hatcher, Tennessee’s ace. was able TO tie the count in the last period when he got a goal from placement. Both teams played hard in an effort TO score a touchdown, but were unable TO penetrate the others defense. Coach John r, Bender Of Tennessee showed that his machine Is In for a good season, for holding Nandy SO strength as wen as class embodied In the athletes now wearing the m~oleskins Of the Orange and White, Several Memphis boys were seen in action In the Saturday melee of Vandy and Tennessee. on the Gold and Black eleven were Swayne Latham and N, W, Sherman, both OF Memphis and both quarter backs, Latham started the game and was relieved by sherman after futile attempts to gain against the stonewall defense offered by the Tennesseans. Willis McCahe, Jim Bradford and Hunter Lane were the Bluff Citians who performed with the Orange and White and who scintlllated on the Nash Vile gridiron. This trio has added considerable strength to the Bender lineup and great things are expected OF them before the season has been finished. = Georgia Tech encountered more opposition than Coach Helsman had anticipated In Clemson college and not until the second half could the Golden Tor nado get going, The Clemson team held Tech scoreless for the first half, but In the final pair Of periods, the Heismen got busy and piled UP rs points, at the same time keeping tho Clemsonians at bay.
