the wind is blowing. Some wagered
that Vandy won't score. others that the
Commodores wouldn't register a touch
down. This latter proposition appears
to be about toss up.
Already the pessimistic wall has
gone up from Atlanta : to the effect
that Bud" Phillips. Judy" Harlan
and shorty" GULL. the three most
valuable Tech men. will be out of the
lineup with injuries. Those who have
followed football in the south during
recent years will take this sob-stuff
with a grain of salt With this trio on
the sidelines Vandy would give Heis-
mans machine an awful battle for the
decision but don't worry, they'll get
in the game.
From all reports the middle OF
Vandy's line is the most Vulnerable
spot in the team. Tennessee's back
field charged over Sharpe, Holmes and
McGill with startling regularity last
Saturday, ripping off gains OF A. and
yards at nearly every down. Holmes
has been shifted to center and this may
help. But Techs guards and center
are rated stronger than Vandy's.
The prettiest fight of the game should
develop between Capt. Josh" Cody
Vandy's star tackle and Capt. Pup"
Phillips, the Tech leader and tackle.
Pup" formerly cavorted at center but
was shifted to tackle where he is prov
ing more useful. For years alumni OF
these rival institutions have argued
over the merits of these two stars and
this first clash between them should
settle the matter of superiority.
vii
be we'll worth seeing is that between
Fincher and Adams, all-southern ends.
Fincher is not only a good punter but
| a great defensive man. However his
| Vandy rival has something on him when
| it comes to receiving forward passes.
Zerfoss, vandys other end is also a
good punter but not as strong on de-
| Tense as Station against whom he'll have
| to play.
| vandys backfield may have shade
| on Techs in speed but ii is doubtful
! if they have anywhere near the punch.
! So it would seem to us that Vandy's
| only chance to score touchdown is
| by getting around ALI Adams end for
| long runs or by the aerial route with
| ALT on the receiving end of the pass.
Latham and Berryhill are as fast as
any two men in the south but Tech has
! four stars in Quill, Flowers. Barron
and Harlan to offset them.
Josh Cody is the best dropkicker in
| the south but we don't believe the
score will be so close that Josh's toe
! can turn the tide in Vandy's favor
| In punting Zerfoss and Gore should
prove a good match for Fincher.
| Summing 1t up Tech has the ad-
vantage in the middle of the line and
| more powerful attack in the backfield
! while Vandy may have a shade IN
| sneed and forward pass execution
