delicately balanced system of the human

deep enough into the atom and reached

what many are thinking.
What does a scientist say to this chal-

depending upon the personality and ex-
perience of the man interrogated. What
follows in this article is based on con-

and while science Is bound by no ofiicial
spokesman, think 1t Is fair to say that
Dr. Merriam's point of view Is represent

qualification to appraise the spacious
sweep Of science In its relation to our
third decade Of the twentieth century Of
the Christian era.
In addition to the long view Of the

IT was a severe blow TO the luckless
ColonialS. who twice previously had
hurled back the Jayhawk forces al
most at the final stripe.
With the line smashing Don Bomba S
charges against the stout Kansas line
about as effective as a pea-shooter at
t--ck on the side of a battleship, and
the housekeeping Leemans held to an
average OF three yards per rush, the
ColonialS again took to the air in an
effort to find an outlet for bottled-up
offensive energy. Ben Plotnich and
Leemans hurled passes to all parts of
the field, but two more first downs and
a brief sojourn at the Jayhawkers' IL
yard line was all the damage the jim
Pixlee-coached eleven could accomplish
before the final whistle.
Defensively the Colonials were little
short of great. In the second period
two long passes, Hafford to Quarterback
Bloomfield and Hafford to Right Guard

standard bearers TO reach George

touchdown, Kansas backs failed to gain

attempted a field goal from placement,
which was partially blocked by Bomba,
who DETECTED the oval enough to make
it go wide and low.

BY DILLON GRAHAM,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

A TLANTA, December q
~ Dukes dream of a perfect
1 \ season and a possible Rose
Bowl bid was dashed here
today by a relentless and resolute
Georgia Tech eleven that scored
a second period touchdown and
then stiffened to repulse every
Duke threat in the closing quar-
tiers.
Out of the wreckage of a campaign
that had seen them lose five of their
nine games by narrow margins, the
ar-battered Engineers arose to whip
the Blue Devils, to o. and stamp a
bitter climax to the record of the best
team in Duke history.
This gallant Duke eleven. a Wallace
Wade production, battled gamely to the
end and threw terror into the hearts
of the Engineers with its long and dar-
ing passing offensive in the last period.
The breaks, those stunning turns of
fate that often decide victory or de-
feat. have been against Tech all year,
but today they we're all against the
invaders from the Piedmont county Of
Carolina. Once the DukesterS drove to
Techs 1-yard line, only to have an off,
side penalty throw them back and spoil
their chance to tie or probably win
the game.
