through for the score.
The fourth period started with Penn

whirl Wilson, on double pass, rushed

touchdown, with Killinger again diving
over the line.
lhe closing feature of the battle was
two remarkable passes of twenty-eight
and thirty yards from Killinger to Nc

plays were among the main features of
the day, although neither led to any

Big Day for the Rooters
The game was marked by hard, fast
play, minus any touch of unnecessary
rcughness. The spirit between the stu
dent bands and the rival rooters was

who countered with a long cheer for
Penn State.
The defense of the Georgia Tech
team was a bitter disappointment to
its many followers. Its inability to
diagnose line plays or to break I'D for
ward passes brought about it's start
Ing overthrow. The center of the
Iech line was drawn out of the way
on play after play and it was through
mere that many of the gains were made.
The two Stanton brothers, Tech ends,
played good football, with State center
ing most of its attack upon the Tech
line or swinging in with a forward
pass. The number of passes completed
by Bezdek's fine team was unusual,
almost every variety working from any
part of the field
KiIlinger Big Star of Game
The work of Barron and Ferst fea-
tured the Yellow Jackets play, with
Barron leading the attack and Ferst
heading the defense For Penn
State, the big star of the day was Kill
niger, one of the greatest running
backs of the year. He has no superior
in the country at working his way for
ward, as he combines great speed with
tidy knack of ducking and lodging,
and to this adds unusual leg power
that is not to be thrown back. Wilson
was only few strides back of KILL
niger, with Lightner another strong
candidate.
The State line, after slow start,
soon warmed up to it's work and out
played the Tech line completely up and
down the field. Bezdck's attack was one
of the strongest and easily the most
versatile Of the year. 1t may not have
been new stuff, but it was worked with
such snap and precision that Tech was
never in the hunt after the first period
ended.
The whole thing goes to prove again
that strong attack isn't much OF a
defense, while the other side has the
ball, and is gaining all the ground it
needs. By this victory Bezdek proved
that he has great machine coming on,
one that will. prove to be a worthy
rival for the Navy and Pittsburgh, who
are waiting further along the line for
two decisive tests. In Killinger he has
a backfield star who mus. be rated with
the best in the game, man that both
the Navy and Pitt will find hard 90
stop. If there is any doubt about this
they have only to query Georgia Tech
