GREEN WAVE SWEEPS
 WIN OVER TIGERS.
Tulane Holds Auburn For 8 Straight Bucks On B.
 Yard Line And Wins, l4-6

MONTGOMERY. Ala. Nov. S. An alert Green Wave from Tulane university invaded Cramton bowl this afternoon and swept to victory over a bunch of snarling, fighting Tigers iron, the Auburn pains. The score was IA to 6.
 They made history as their smart, well-coached eleven sent the Auburn team down to defeat. It was the flrst time Tulane team has ever left the gridiron with an advantage over their Orange and Blue opponents.
 Speed, brains and the first principle of the gridiron game-that of watching the ball-accounted for their victory over the sluggish, less smart eleven from Auburn.
 Earns Victory
 Tulane's victory was earned. They rode on a crest of fortune throughout the periods of play, but they obtained the indulgence of fate with gestures of their own. They made the breaks and had the wit to take advantage of them. They defeated Auburn and their victory reflected the margin of su- periority of the team from the Louls- jana delta over the Plainsmen.
 Accident picked out an Auburn play CT upon whom the fortunes of battle smiled more kindly in previous days to the deuce of today's struggle.
 It was Williams, whose educated toe sent to l.. s. U. team to defeat two weeks ago, who fumbled the ball when tackled by Harry Wilson during the first two minutes of play. The oval flew from Williams hands and bounded to the side. Wilson darted from the massed players and scooped the ball up on the run and with a quartet of in- terferers, formed before the dazed Au- burn team knew what had happened, raced 30 yards across the Tiger, goal line.
 Another Tumble
 Again in the final quarter the Green wave swept over their demoralized op- ponents for a touchdown. As Auburn was making a determined advance to- ward the Tulane goal, another tumble, this time by Salter. was recovered by Brother Brown on Auburn's 40 strip. Two plays directed into Auburn's strong line were stopped and Flournoy then tossed long pass to Morgan, who plucked it from the air and stiff-armed Williams to gain the Auburn goal line. This ended Tulanes scoring, but they had plenty.
 Auburn's defeat was self inflicted. After Harkins had blocked Flournoy's attempted punt in the first quarter, recovering it on Tulane's 40-yard line. series of plays with Green and Salter carrying the bali, placed it on Tulane's three-yard line. Four hectic plunges, with Salter, Crane and Turner ram ming at Tulane's line,i failed to net a touchdown. On the fourth play, with the ball six inches from the goal line. Tulane was offsided and it was still Anburn's ball with four more tries to shove it across. They failed. Tulane's line held as former Auburn lines have held and after eight straight bucks into the forward wall of the Green Wave, the ball went oyers to- Tulane and Fiournoy G1iekly punted Out of danger. Auburn brought his punt back to Tu- lanes T-yard line by a series of for ward passes. Peterson to Greene, and again the Tulane line held and Auburn's s desperate goal-seeking pass over the Tulane was grounded and the ball went over.
 Auburn Attacks Again
 In the final quarter Auburn pulled together it's trampled- spirits and made an inspired attack which netted them a
