ENSLEY HI TIES ATLANTAM, GO Jackets And Tech High Stage Great Scoreless
 Battle

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 25.-(Special.) Tech High and Ensley fought to O-O tie Saturday morning on Marist field in an hour of driving and fast play, neither eleven being able to break the unscored-on record of it's worthy oppon ent, despite serious threats by both elev' ems in the final drives of the last pc riod. Three attempts at field goals. two by Ensley and one by Tech High, carried the most dangerous threats. neither eleven getting in a position that looked like touchdown. In the opening quarter the Smithies launched drive that ploughed it's way too well within the 20-yard line, but the Ensley forwards stiffened and the ball was lost on downs. A beautiful punt by Marston removed all danger from the goal line.
 The second quarter was made par ticularly thrilling by a beautiful 4O- yard run by Thomason. and an inter- cepted pass and 20-yard run by Me Gonagle, Ensley end. The visitors out played the home club in this period just as the Smithies had out charged the Alabama team in the first frame. The half ended with the ball near mid | field.
 Both Start Drives The third quarter saw both elevens make sustained drives for several con secutive first downs only to be stopped when within striking distance. Ensley used a variety of nations, but a tri- pie pass worked perfectly for a 15-yard gain and punt formation that circled the ends gained repeatedly. Ensley re- fused to yield another inch on the To- | yard line, and Thomson was called on to dropkick field goal. The line failed to hold, however, and McGon- | agle, Ensley end, broke through, block ed the kick. scooped up the elusive | pigskin. and started for the Tech High goal. S5 yards away. Thomson, with a 5-yard handicap. overlook the racing end in spectacular race and downed him on the Smithie 10-yard line. The visitors were unable to gain, and pre- pared to try a placement kick. It was an easy try, but bad pass and huff by. the quarter, who was to hold the | ball. deprived LOwery of his chance to even threaten to kick before the Smithie forwards were upon him.
