' Coach Helsntnn opened the game
with a brand new piece of strategy—
he .tuck In a lot of substitutes, These
men. all of them playing for their first

- importance of their position and played
jttcoSlngiy- They ripped away at the

! fe ce | n a || the lone gam* did a Clem-
■ son man break thru and get off for a
EL ran* And that time he wa. over-
. KJeram behind by a more fleet-
i £Set” Most of the time the
»" «h‘ defensive.
Of coura. on one occasion they made
two forward passes In succession and
were In a fair way to make three sue,
cental forward passe* In a row. But
alas! one of the men .tumbled, a Tech
men bowled hlm'over and one of the
few t.'lemeon attack, wap repulsed.
As a rule Tech had the ball and was
plowing along with It. Most of the
xulna wore made thru the line. Tho
Teehstera had a good variety of line
attacks and they were amaslngly sue
cossful. Of course there were
a few things "put thru" that would not
have “got by" a strict offlclaf. Then
was "hiking" and pulling and piMhlag.
But It wa. don* artistically—perhaps,
even unintentionally. And so long as
It "got by" the Tech men didn't care.
These line attack, bent Cleijison. The
ball was .hoved up and down tho field,
with only an occasional stop for a punt
or when Tech wa» held for down..
Of course Tech had no easy work of
It. Every Clemaon man wa. lighting
as tho his whole career depended on It.
If there was a breach In the line a half
dosen Cleinsonltea Altered thru and
spilled the runner. If an eml .attack
was tried It was usually stopped. Tho
South Carolinans were everywhere and
fighting always. But there wss no gain
saying th* steady, resistless attack of
the Tech men. And so Tech won.
Crowd Rathsr Large.
The crowd that saw the game num
bered from S.000 to 7.000. And It was
a typical Thanksgiving dsy crowd—
beiibboned, be (lowered and happy, but
not over enthusiastic. Thanksgiving
la th* public’s day at the football game.
The rest of th* year the college men
and girls are there. And It makes a
difference In the noise and the enthu
siasm.
The day wa* Ideal for watching a
game, and a more balmy and delightful
Thanksgiving day would have been
hard to secure under any circum
stances. It did not suft the player* any
too well, but it was their last game and
nothing mattered much.
To Tech the victory wa* peculiarly
welcome. The local men felt that the|r
team and thelr'coach stood In nefed of
vindication after th* defeat adminis
tered by Georgia, and that It was up to
them to do the vindicating by rolling
up a score of healthy proportion*. The

So fur so good, but who put hobbl*

T|iore will bo no Auburn-Vanderbllt
game tills year.
There has never been a real chance
for one.
Vanderbilt always has been and al
ways will be opposed to post-season
games, and has done much to frewn
down the Idea of games for a cham
pionship. I
"Play each game for lt« own sake,"
Is the motto at Vanderbilt.
There Is no question but thut Au
burn wanted tho gamo and there Is nc
doubt but that Jt would have been a
grand contest
But all deals are off.

to obtain. They were much more pow

Any man who could have. guessed
within ten points of any of those scores
made Thanksgiving day on Southern
fields would have been a wonder.
Beginning right at home—there wets
few who suspected that Tech would
overwhelm clemson. Most of us hod
a hunch that Tech was ths winner, but
that tho locals would snow under th*
team that held Georgia to a tie wga
not hoped.
Tho tremendous drubbing that Au
burn gave Georgia waa another sur
prise. Of course, tho dope from all Its
angles gave the game to Auburn, but
not by any such score as 23 to 0.
Another game that looked mighty
