There were many upsets Saturday
afternoon throughout the football
world. and there were several down
here in the South
Probably the biggest surprise In the
Southland was the defeat of the Van

the University OF Tennessee, Few
thought that the Tennesseans would
be able to emerge victorious over the
Com odorcs. despite the fact that the
former gridironists declared that they
had surprise package to hand the
Vanderbilt gridtronists. Tennsssee's
victory was a decisive one and Van
derbilt's defeat puts tho Commodores
out OF the running for the Southern
championship.
As was predicted. the Virginia elev-
ems found their visiting opponents
easy, although the scores were much
larger than anticipated. Virginia ex-
