Duke-Ga. Tech Encounter
Looms South’s Greatest
Durham, Oct. 13 —A gridiron en
gagement that dares the makers of
adjectives for proper description is
the one that will be staged in Duke
stadium Saturday when the unde
feated. untied, unsebred on teams of
Georgia Tech and Duke university
come together in a continuation of
one of the shortest but greatest of
southern football rivalry.
It is a “natural” from every angle—
a classic of the first rank—undoubt
edly the major game of the year in
Dixie and one that ranks with the
greatest played in the country this
year.
It will be a test of an offense that
has rolled up 147 points in three
games against a defense that has
held four opposing teams to a min
imum of yardage this season. And,
that offense since the 34-0 victory
over Kentucky, is being rated as one
of the greatest in the nation. It was
effective enough last year when these
present Tech boys were sophomores
as Coach Alexander instructed them
mix the latest innovations of lateral
passing with a series of reverses,
spinners and straight maneuvers that
has, in other years, put Tech in the
top ranks of American football teams.
The clash will bring together some
Os Dixie’s greatest football players in

With everything considered, the
game Saturday ranks with the great
est ever lined up in southern foot
ball and is expected to go down into
the record books as such. Duke is
hardly thought to be up to the Yel
low Jackets as an all-around team
but they should be near enough to
allow the lines to be drawn for a foot
ball game the like of which has nev
er been seen in this section.
WADE, ALEXANDER
HAVE MET OFTEN
Durham, Oct. 13 —'While the series
between Duke and Tech is a short
one having started in 1933, the coach
es of the two teams—Wallace Wade
and Bill Alexander —have met for
years and the rivalry between these
two veterans of the south has been
one of the greatest in Dixie football.
They started meeting in 1923,
Wade’s first year at Alabama and
the score 0-0 despite the fact
that Tech c ll first downs to
Alabama’s 0. In 1924, Wade’s Ala
bama team topped Tech, 14-0, and
those Crimson Tide Rose Bowl teams
of 1925 and 1926 won by scores of
14-0 and 7-0. Tech won in 1927, 13-0,
and the following year—l 928 —the
great Tech team scored more points
on a Wade-coach team than any ele
ven has ever made. Held to a 13-13
tie until the last eight minutes of play
Tech cut loose for three touchdowns
to win 33-13. The following year,
Alabama beat Tech 14-0, which ended
the series until Duke and Tech met
in 1933—and it’s well remembered
that Tech stopped Duke’s drive after
nine victories by 6-0. In 1934, Duke
won 20-0, but last year, Tech triumph
ed again 6-0.

this fall is George Fry, Raleigh boy.
Fry plays right tackle and is doing
a great job. He will face Furman on

A Ram Run That Mustangs Stopped
WfS W - ;i§l
In one of the tightest defensive games of the season, a battle in which the Fordham and Southern Meth
odist combined yardage from rushing was only 80 yards, John Lock, Ram fullback, snagged a S. M. U.
pass and ran 80 yards to a touchdown, the only score. This action shot shows Dulkie (50) of Fordham being
stopped almost in his tracks by the Mustang’s powerful linemen. (Central Press)

Saturday Night
College Station, Raleigh, Oct. 13 —
Encouraged oveV their splendid
showing against the big and strong
Manhattan team Friday night in
Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, the Wolfpack
of North Carolina State has resum
ed practice drills for its Southern
Conference game Saturday night in
Riddick Stadium with Furman Uni
versity.
The game comes as the fourth and
final night tilt for the Wolves this
fall. There are five more games to
be played, but these are scheduled for
the afternoon.
State’s Wolfpack continues to show
improvement with each game, look
ing much like the strong 1935 team
against Manhattan. There was bet
ter blocking and teamwork Friday
night and if Coach Anderson can
get his injured men back in shaps
this week, the Wolfpack can hope to
win some of the games remaining
on its schedule.
The loss of .Eddie Berlinski from
the Wake Forest and Manhattan
games was keenly felt. The Wolves
also coud have been using Carroll
Conrad, left end; Albert Sandfoss,
halfback, and the line crashing of
Joe Mahoney, fullback. Sandfoss,
and Mahoney may be ready Saturday
but there is little chance, of Berlinski
playing. Conrad is on the shelf pos
sibly for the season.
Coach Miller Takes Boys
Inside to Tidy Up Uni
forms and Lockers
Bing Miller gave his football char
ges a rest yesterday afternoon, mak
ing them tidy up their uniforms, the
gymnasium and treat several minor
injuries that the boys have sustained
during their grid season.
Coach Miller keeps a close eye on
his charges as to their health, giving
first aid to the slightest scratch that
the Bulldogs may receive in their
skirmishes, and if needs be, he sends
them to Dr. Vance B. Rollins, who is
acting as the teams physcian at no
cost to the boys, Coach Miller said.
To show the boys that he means
business when he says tidy up, sev
eral of the boys have been suspended
until they comply with the rules. They
promptly went to work in cleaning
up their lockers in the locker room
and all seem ship shape for their en
counter Friday afternoon with Rox
boro.
A stiff drill this afternoon and to
morrow, tapering off Thursday, will
put the locals in tip top condition,
Coach Miller feels.
