CONMODORES ARE LOOKING TO GAME
 WITH GEORGIANS
Vandy Eleven Is Thought to Have Fair Chance to
 Stop Bulldogs

Nashville, Tenn, November G. Especial. )--Interest in Nashville. especially among the student body and the large group of alumni, Is already at fever heat concerning the coming invasion of the Commodore bailiwick ybthe Georgia Bulldog. After the Texas game the main topics of discussion were all about the Georgia game and the chances of the Gold and Black machine. The Ten nessee game halted the discussion for short while, and then it may be faid to have leaped thu Alabama game and landed all on the fateful Sat urday of November 12, when the whis- tic sets the Bulldog loose at the Com modore throat.
 A stranger, seeing Vanderbilt student on the street. has been known to stop him and, with a stage whisper, ask: What chance has Van derbilt against Georgia?" Whenever a group congregates you'll hear it l asked again, What chance has Van derbilt?" It is not always specified as to who with, and 1t Is not neces- | sary. Everyone knows that they mean Georgia. After the Texas game their hopes mounted high; the Ten ncssee game convinced the skeptics, and now the answer is-
 "A blame good chancep'
 Watch 'Em Next Year.
 All over the state and for that matter all over the south, old grads are pulling each other by the shoul- der and saying that Dan is getting together another of his old-time teams. This years is good: they're going to beat Georgia-and next year. well. watch their smoke!"

 It was then that it was realized
 that here was no ordinary Vanderbilt
 team and the cry became "On to | Georgia" In former years the prep | aration has all been towards vic- tory over the Sewanee Tiger. but this year finds 1t all the other way and
 the slogan is Beat Georgia!" The Tiger has strong team this season
 and one that will require all the
 stamina and skill which the Commo- dore possesses. but the interest is all centered on the battle with the Bulldogs
 Practically all the southern critics are agreed that Georgia has perhaps the greatest line in the south. It has
 tossed back every attack of the year Including the linemen of humbled Harvard, and few have been the yards
 gained through the Bulldog forwards, Against the massive front of the
 peach state Vanderbilt will throw a lline that has outrushed all opponents
 who have faced it this year. In the
 first games the line lacked cohesive
 ness and teamwork, but against Tex
 as and Tennessee the line play was
 faultless. If Georgia conquers the
 Commodore line she will have accom-
 plished a task that no foe has beer
 able to do this fall. As the regular line goes into the battle there is but
 one worry, lack of substitutes, ane
 injuries to Captain Wade and Law
 renee, sub guard.
