  BRYAN’SL0NG RUN TELLSF FOR TULANE PIows 101 Yards Through Mud to Defeat Georgia Tech, 7 to o. = A TLANTA, Ga, October 21.- “ The galloping feet Of Bucky a Bryan, 170-pound Tulane halfback, stopped through the mud 1O1 yards from the kick of as the third quarter opened today to give the Green Wave from New Orleans 7-to-0 victory over Georgia Tech. Bryan’s great run, all the more remarkable because OF the quagmire churned up on Grant Field by drenchrain just before the game started, came with startling suddenness at the open ing of the second half. and provided the only thrill in an otherwise drab encounter marked by frequent fumbles. The Shreveport, La, halfback caught the ball l yard behind his own goal line, plunged and sidestepped his way through the entire Georgia Tech team, and with excellent blocking by his teammates. galloped the length Of the field to lay the ball behind Techs goal line for the only touchdown Of the game. MintZ, Bryan’s running mate, booted the ball through the standards for the extra point. Virtually the entire game, except for Bryan’s long run, was played in Tulane territory, and at no other time did the Greenies threaten to score. Georgia Tech, on the other hand, twice put the ball within Tualne’s 10 yard line. each time lacking the drive necessary for a score.
