today and left the Bulldog
submerged in a swirl of Emerald
surf by the score of 20 to Z. Forty
thousand spectators packed the
Sanford Stadium for this big bat
tie, crowding the side lines and
packed far back up on the nearby
uplands as Tulane's star team
outplayed Georgia in every de-
| partment of the game and handed
the Red and Black its first de-
feat Of the year.
The team that trimmed Yale and
| New York University was up against
| far different one this afternoon. Tl-
lanes fast, versatile attack was far be-
yond anything the East or the South
has shown all year as 1t ripped the
| Georgia defense apart with runs and
passes and line plunges that Georgia
could not meet.
The great crowd, overhowing the
bitterness and grimness Of a civil war.
It was fought on day of intense heat
with q burning sun showing the ther-
nometer up above 80 and as the foot
ball struggle moved along more than
q dozen private brawls came close to
starting any number of open riots that
might easily have broken UP the game.
The great crowd, over-flowing the
seating capacities Of the stands, swarmed
| out along the side lines and it was
here that punches and kicks were ex-
changed in great profusion between
the rival rooters Of the two teams.
There was times when it looked as II
the State constabulary or the National
Guard might be needed to avert q free
for-all between Georgia's rooters and
Tulane's 1900 invaders.
Georgia Never Had n Chance.
Georgia fought with everything she
had to offer, but Georgia never had a
| chance. Led by such stars as Don
Zimmerman and Jerry Dalrymple, Tu-
lane had far more In the way Of speed
and power than Georgia could meet

Black forward wall into ribbons and

fast backs never had chance to take
a forward step, as some hurting tack
Ter In green struck Key, Mott or Rob-
ertS down.
Tulane scored twice in the frst two
periods through the air. . The first
score came on long pass from Zim-
norman to Haines for SO yards that
sent the ball across the Georgia line.
The second touchdown was the result
Of Georgia interference on another pass
to Felts on Georgia's 1-yard line, where
Felts later took the ball across. Two
mighty kicks by Glover that sent the
ball right against the Georgia goal
line, covered by Felts and Zimmerman,
had Georgia Keeling in each period.
The scrappy Georgia team gave its
supporters new grip on hope in the
third period when Key threw 25-yard
pass to Mott from his own 35-yard
line and the fleet Mott ran IS yards
for Georgia's only score.
Bulldog Unable to Follow Up.
But that was Georgia's last and final
Wave was the only water that broke
across the wheel of foot ball fate
Shortly after Georgia had scored Payne
circled Georgia's right end for O 29-yard
dash that led to the third touchdown.
This was the final Elow as the battle
SeeSawed up and down the field with
Tulane always threatening, always the
aggressor In the lead.
There was no questioning Tulane's
superior play. The Green Wave showed
far more In the way Of speed, rushing

leading Eastern terms have shown SO
Tar. zimmerman was combination
OF deer and buffalo. This great back
was all over the place slashing forward
with fast, elusive motion that picked
up yard after yard.
Jerry Dalrymple proved his place
among the best ends Of foot ball. His
,tackling and blocking were superb and
streak on kicks and a star cog in the
passing game. Payne, Felts, Dawson
and Glover were almost as good.
Georgia Appears Stale.
The Georgia team gave the appear
ance Of staleness on more than one
occasion. but 1t had no chance at any
Wave that surged and struck with its
lock Of stars. ...
When you get q combination of
speed, power and cohesion, YOU have a

rms battle today was an impressive
spectacle. It was the greatest crowd
that ever saw o foot ball game In the
South on one Of the hottest November
Gays even the South ever has known.
The heat was blistering, blazing and
the wonder Is that the two teams stood
up as well.
Georgia gave all it had. Roberts,
Mott and Key especially were thorns in

not able to keep Tulane,s forward wall
from breaking through and blotting out
the play. Catfish Smith was not up to

was today: Downes had his ups and
