It resulted from a beautiful forward pnss, hurled hy Dirk Mtilvlhill. Into the waiting arms of Ralph Hanford "Smack” Thompson, which netted some tlilrty- Uto yards. During the rest of the KHmo the locals went gooso-eggy. Tennessee's marker came from the toe of Quarterback Itufe flnyton, who hooted one through the hnrs from Georgia's 42-yard.line early In the second quarter nfter the hnll hRil been rushed down the Held hy the visitors. The kick was made from a most difficult angle nnd sailed squarely through the hors. Following this nifty piece of work hy Mr. Clayton, the game evolved Into a most hectic one. and nlthough neither team scored, hoth carried j deadly threats during the second quarter. Tennessee resorted to an aerial attack which was hafTIIng and which carried a most dangerous scor ing threat. During the hnlvcs, however. Coach Stegeman gave his hoys a few de fensive pointers against this attack In the air, and this defensive was ns unique ns It wns peculiar nnd mot with much success. This statement cnn he proved hy nssertlng that Ten nessee tried some eleven passes dur ing the last half, nnd only three were completed. The same number wore Intercepted hy Georgia. How Defense Worked. When a passing piny was looked for hy the Mulldogs, seven men would spread themselves behind the line of scrimmage, leaving only four on the line. All tin 1 haekfleld men and Ro ney, center, and Ceilings and Rich ardson. ends, would fall hack, leav ing only two tackles nnd the gunrds on the line It would appear that against this formation Tennessee could gnln on line plays, lint they couldn't consistently enough to start a touchdown drive, although they tried desperately. Cnptaln Puss Whidchel, Georgia's guard, who had been out with Injuries eve rslnce the Chicago game, was hnck in the line up Saturday, and his presence seemed to work wonders with the locals. Coach Stegeman made sovernl switches and changes In his line-up. He shifted Sam Roney from end to center and Dave Colllngs from quar terback to Roney’s position nt end. Dick Mulvihill took Ceiling's place as Held marshal. Jake Duller, who has been playing end. was benched and his place taken hy Sam Richardson. This rejuvlnated lineup appeared very strong The RuUdogs started the battle with n rush, which almost convinced the Georgia supporters on hand that they would win hy a runaway score. To start the festivities, Georgia re ceived and starting with the hnll In their possession on their own 20- yard line, launched a mighty offen sive. With their forwards smashing the opposing riiHh line nlmoat to smithereens the llulldog hacks swept down the field, making gnln after gain and llrst-down after llrst-down. They didn’t resort to a single end run. They hit the linn, plunging through big holes which their com rades had opened for them. And that wns sufficient. How Georgia Scored. When they reached Tennessee’s 30-yard line the volunteers rallied, canto hack with a vengeance nnd forced them to kick. There was a short exchange of punts nnd the Mulldogs secured the hall again on Tennessee’s 35-yard line. On tho first play pulled, Dick Mulvihill, running tho team like the master he Is, caught the visitors entirely off guard anti pulled the play which won the game. He dropped hack and hurled a long pass to Ralph Sanford Thompson, who, with the snap from center, had shot out around right end. The hall fell into Smack’s big hands anil bounced into the air, ns the Georgia fans breathed hard. Rut It dropped right hack Into Smack's paws and he raced over tho line. Mulvihill added the extra point, hooting one through from the 15- yard line. Tin 1 last of the play during the tlrst quarter was about even with neither team seriously threatening. At the start of the second quarter, however, Tennessee began to play real football. On an exchange of punts they ob tained the pigskin on their own 20- vard line. Here they opened up a forward passing attack, completing two long ones and these along with several tiff tackle plays rushed the ball to Georgia's 30-yard line, llut they were arrested here with It fourth down and several yards to go, and thi> hnll on the left of goal post, Rufe Hatcher elded to attempt the Impossible, lie dropped back to Georgia's 4 2- yard line and with a superhuman effort kicked one straight through tho bars. He had accomplished the impossible. Following Mr. Clayton's kick neither team threatened seriously to score again during the second quar ter. In the third quarter, however, the visitors came near threatening Georgia’s goal line several times. It was in this period that they played their best hall of the day. They made two tlrst downs to Georgia’s nine and kept the ball tn the Rulldogs territory considerably. Once one of their half-hacks .Mr. Jimmy Smith, came near scoring a touchdown when he circled left end for 35-yards carrying the hnll from well In his own land to mldtleld, and passing every Georgia man save two. During the period Georgia was forced to punt four times, Tennessee two. The vols entered the fourth quar ter continuing their line playing Rut it remained to none other than Joe Dennett to turn the tide. With the hall in mldtleld, the Vols were forced to punt. Rennett, who has a habit of blocking punts broke through and blocked the kick, and another Georgia linesman recovered. Joe pulled tills stunt shortly after the quarter got under way and dur ing the rest of the period Georgia held the upper hand. Once the Rull dogs rushed the hall from midfield to Tennessee's 8-yard line where an intended forward pass Mulvihill to Richardson, was intercepted. Twice they were in close enough range of Tennessee's goal posts for Mulvihill to attempt dropkicks, but neither was successful. 4 ap 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 Tennessee's Aerial Game. The Volunteers resorted almost solely to a forward passing attack when they held the hall in this pe riod. They tried six, two of which were completed. Three were inter cepted hy Dan Post, Georgia’s half back who had replaced Cleekley ear ly in the second half. Cleekley went in for John Fletcher in the middle of the second quarter, when John was hurt. Statistics on the game show that while the playing was mlghtly close, Georgia had the edge. The Mulldogs made eight tlrst downs while the visitors chalked up six. Georgia completed four forward passes for a gain of 115 yards: Ten nessee completed live for a gain of only 70 yards. Georgia had four passes to fall Incomplete, while Ten nessee had eleven. The Rulldogs did not fumble a single time; Tennessee mlscued three times. The Vols didn't punt as often as the Rulldogs, kick ing only nine times while the locals kicked ten. Mulvihill did all of Georgia's punting and In 1 got off quite a few nice spirals. Tennessee's punting was done hy Clayton. Tennessee lost but the Vols put up a game and gallant and clenn the tight, and they went down In defeat de- with a smile on their faces. They played liek gentlemen all the way through and made hundreds of friends among Athens fans by the gentlemanly way in which they con ducted themselves during the game. The line-up and summary.
