Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 2l.-for
tho lirst dine in the history OF foot
bali an eastern team Invaded Dixie,
and this alone made the days event
Important enough without Vanderbilt
DEF ting Dixle's FIRST invaders.
Had the Commodores gone down IN
defeat instead OF winning the battle
81 10 0. the game would have been
fse greatest ever Witnessed on
soaihern grldiron, but the victory
over the Indians, a team before the
call OF play conceded to be practically
the champions OF the east, makes
Vanderbilts win the most glorious
since the organization OF football
team IN that institution.
However. the attendance In c0m-
harrison with the greatness OF the con-
test fell way below expectations. To
put the figures at 5000 would be ex-
eeedingiy generous. yet the assem-
Dlago made up In enthusiasm what II
iacked IN figures.
when the Indians ran out on the
feid wrapped with blankets, as was
4ho wont OF their ancestors when the
early tribes resided In tepees In the
Wild and woolly, they were greeted
with cheers OF Just a. great volume
as were the COmmodores. when they
appeared few minutes later.
