TECH 8HARED THE FATE OF MANY ANOTHER GOOD TEAM. IMHIMMIHHHMHHIHKMHMIlltMIMMMHHHIMHHHMniMHI NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS By PERCY H. WHITING. iiimnuMHis I8M8MMMM8I An Eastern press association has sent around the country n statement that tho Southern colleges hnve “just” adopted a “one- year residence rule.” As a matter of fact that rulo has been in effect in tho S. I. A. A. for several years. Tho great white light has at last broken and the major leagues nro going to have shorter schedules. This is one of the first signs of intelligence which some of the major moguls havo displayed in several years. The baseball war In Texas is reported to bo over. This leaves all the world in pcaco except for a small chunk of Pennsylvania, where they havo their own notions of baseball independence. Speaking of that, the annual story that tho Tri-State out laws were due to go into the fold of organized baseball has been sprung, by the said organized baseball. And as usual the out laws haven’t heard of it and don’t care to. VANDERBILT SCORED ON BY PLUCKY TECH TEAMI “Rube” Waddell has blossomed forth somewhere in Penn sylvania as a “professor”'of athletics. George Edward Waddell, ball player, bar tender, actor, pro fessor. Next! The wisdom of being on hand when things are happening was well exemplified Saturday afternoon by a young gentleman tismail PnKnrt bnmun nnmmnnl no * * Ph i ** Tim unid **f!li«n** named Robert,'known commonly as "Chip.” The said “Chip 1 eame down the field under a punt at a critical moment in Satur day’s game while the rest of his team mates were giving imita- ed to find tho (■ tions of canal boats in the moist distance, happcnei ball running loose and fell on it. Immediately thereafter he was tackled from three sides and grcviously mauled, but it did not matter to him. For he had accomplished a feat which several hundred other young men had tried to do in the last three years. LAs Season Nears Its End y Surprise Follows Surprise Saturday', football game, were pro active of many aurprlaea and proved disappointment to We.tem foot- I>.dl follower,. The defeat of Michigan by Pennsyl vania and of Minnesota by the Indiana, tmtli by score, of 17 to 0, brought sor row 'to the hearts of Westerners, who have long thought that the football played on the western side of the Al- leghanles was a better brand of goods than that played on the eastern slope. It seems that this dope le wrong, at legist from what can be judged by iliosa two games. Of course Michigan has not tho team she had last year—In fart, haa not even the team she had when she played Vanderbilt The Michigan team with out Curtis Is a trifle like “whisky straight" without the whisky. How ever, Pennsylvania Is far from as good n team as Tate, Harvard and Prince ton, and Michigan followers hoped for victory. That the Indians could make the Minnesota burrh eat dirt was another aad surprise to Westerners. A nothlng-to-nothlng result In the Ynle-I’rinceton battle was somewhat unexpected, but owing to the rapid Improvement of Yale during the latter part of last week there Is no especial reason why such n score should not have been made. ive been made. , . In the South things did not turn nut Just ns Indicated In the advance no tices. The scoring of T .'ch was not altogether an unexpected happening, and neither was the defeat of Auburn by Alabama. It seemed certain that iut there was an other line bunch of dope which went wrong. Georgia's 51 to S victory over Dah- lonega was also rather more over whelming than had been looked for. Since Tech heat Georgia. 17 to 0, and Dahlonega only 1 In 0 It did not seem reasonable to suppose that the Athens players would eat the Mountaineers whole. However, they did, and the un reliability of football dope was aguln demonstrated. Local Players Accomplish Feat Not Duplicated by Southern Team in Three Years. Played in Deep Mud.

The feat of acorlng a touchdown on Vanderbilt—for three long years an tmpoulblllty for any Southern team— waa accomplished Saturday afternoon by Tech. The Tech team lost to Vanderbilt by a score of 37 to 6, but for the Yel low Jackets It waa a victory and for Vanderbilt virtually a defeat. By all standards of Judging football teams— dope, experience of plnyers, weight and speed of the men—Vanderbilt should have won by a score of 40 to 0. Of Course— msH mOLATty BONBONS J THE STANDARD OF PURITY. J. W. HEI8MAN. Much of the good Hhowing of the Tech team tht* seiuson ban been due i.» the efflctt'iit coaching of Mr. Mel* man. The above *napshot *hows him In a charactcrhftic at titude on tho Acid. But that one touchdown brought Bor row to Vanderbilt and Joy to Tech and the local tfcam Is more proud of It than of heating Georgia. It was all very simple. In the early port of the second half Tech wot forced to kick from tho 45-yard line. Brown got away a good one and It sailed, down past thf ten-yard line. Captain Dan Blake was there to receive It, but failed In his attempt The ball skidded by hhn and across Vanderbilt's goal line. Apparently from nowhere at all came a muddy streak, there was a yell, a splash and Robert had landed on .the ball. In the shortest fraction of a min ute three Vanderbilt men had landed on the Tech quarter and he was half burled In the sticky mud. But he held the ball and Vanderbilt was scored against. There were groans from the Van derbilt contingent am! the Tech fol lowers split the atmosphere with a dis play of vocal enthusiasm which has not been equalled this year. of course It was a lucky fluke. Hut this did not change the fact that it was a toijchdowii. And all credit to Robert. He had Jhe agility to elude the Vanderbilt men, the speed to get down the muddy field under the long punt and the quickness to fall on the hall before the Vanderbilt men could get It. Played in ths Mud. Whether or not such an accident would have happened on a dry day is not up for decision. The day was any thing hut dry. It had rained fitfully Saturday morn- Ipg, Just as a bluff. When the ,teams come on the gridiron In the afternoon, however. It began In earnest and for sincere effort that shower would have been hard to beat. Th* previous attempts of J. Pluvlus along the same line had mmked the ground and ft did not take long for the field to pass progressively through ttiud, hog, swamp and lake stages and RECORD OF YALE-PRINCETON GAMES Yale and Princeton met In their annual battle at Princeton Baturday and neither aide could score In a Ions, hard game.

University of Georgia, Athens, Go., Nov. 19.—On an extremely muddy fleld and In a dreary drixxle, the Georgia teajn snowed the mountain lada from Oahli lonega under Baturday afternoon by a score of 53 to 2. The game was remarkable for tho clean way In which Georgia handled nil punts and forward, passes. The work of Hodgson was great In this de partment. Dahlonega spent the entire Aral half In a vain endeavor to keep Georgia from their goal by kicking. Not once did they try to advance the pigskin by any hther method. They made one flrst down In the second half. The Dahlonega team seemed slightly out of condition and became winded at the terrific pace set by Geor gia. It would be a hard proposition to say whlch'players starred for Georgia. The whole team starred and starred collec tively. O ker-HImel, 0.

After being hammered all tn pelces In the first half the men came back and played marvelously good Imll tn the second. The Vanderbilt team forced the Yellow- Jackets to go the full twenty-live minutes In the secopil half and during that lime the Commodores could score but two touchdowns and were themselves* scored against. The crowd was phenomenal consid ering the weather. Probably It was the largest crowd which has been on Tech Held tills fell with the exception of the one which saw the Georgia game.
