Tennessee Threat Checked.

'ENNESSEE came close midway OF
the second period, but the drive
was checked on Dukes 12-yard line.
The game was the last Of . series

Coach Wallace Wade of Duke kept
his record of never having lost a foot
ball game here on Homecoming day.
Wood stood out for the Volunteers,
especially with his brilliant passing
exhibition. Time and again he shook
Would-be tacklers loose, squirmed out
of the pack of Blue Devils and passed
with deadly accuracy. Alert Duke
backs bstted several passes down
which were headed straight for the
arms Of Tennessee players.
