Gator Defense
Faces Stiff
Vandy Test
BY The Associated Press

NV SN~~S~tNaNS
Florida's defensive line, which
yields about as often as Russian
negotiator, may face its sternest
test of the 1852 football season
Saturday when it tangles with
Vanderbilt freshman phenom Bill
Krietemeyer.
The rugged Gator forewall,
which last week handed the ball
to its offensive counterpart seven
times inside Clemson territory, has
been warned to work hard all week
in an effort to check the amazing
Vandy Split-T quarterback.
Krietemeyer has keyed the un-
derdog Commodores to successive
ties with Northwestern and Missis-
Sippi. He scored all three Vandy
touchdowns against Northwestern
and accounted for two of three
against Mississippi.
Vandy and Florida held light
workouts yesterday but planned
more intensive skirmishes later in
the week.
The Alabama Tennessee fracas,
traditionally the top game of the
week despite season records, may
lose some of its glitter in the face
of the Observation-Disclosures duel
at Nashville.
Gen. Bob Neyland, still looking
for an offense from his Tennessee
squad, decided yesterday to con-
centrate on blocking during prac-
tice for the Alabama meeting.
1--WE need to do a lot of work
on our offense," the General OBJ
served, and no one disagreed.
Alabama held a long passing
drill with CleIl Hobson, Bart Starr
and Bobby Duke doing the tossing.
The Tide defensive platoon took il
easy watching Tennessee plays as
run by the freshman team. Billy
Shipp, 250-pound tackle, reported
in uniform for the first time in
two weeks. Trainers hoped his knee
ailment would disappear in time
for the Vol game.
Light workouts, usual for Mon
day, were the rule at. most South
eastern Conference practice fields.
Georgia coaches, who have been
shifting personnel madly all season
because Of combat injuries and tai
ent deficiencies, swapped Sam
Mrvos from tackle to guard in the
offensive line. Mrvos replaces in
jured vern Griffeth. and is re-
! placed by Francis Malinowski. a
former end. Georgia next meets
Louisiana State.
| L. S. U. was warned by Coach
! Gaynell Tinsley not TO take Georgia
lightly. Fearing over confidence
after last weeks 34-7 victory over
Kentucky, Tinsley told his Tigers:
"You've got to extend yourselves
every week 10 cope with this kind
Of competition. /"
