With the Tennessee line turn ing back the Devils' early scor ing threats during the first quar ter, the ball worked back and forth and up and down the field but with the greater part of the play being in the shadow of the Tennessee goal posts. First Threat The BJue Devils first threat ened when Liana blocked Dick ens' punt and Parker recovered on the ten yard line. Tipton and Hackney failed to make the pre cious yards on successive plays and the Vols took over posses sion of the ball. The Dukesters seemed to have a touchdown in the bag later in the first quarter when Hackney returned Dickens' punt 25 yards to the Vols 30 yard line but once again the Devils failed to put it over from the six inch line. . . . And Again And once again, early in' the second quarter, the Vols' line staunchly held its ground as the Devils failed' to put the ball over from the four yard line. .., But soon after, ' Hackney shook his way through the maze of Tennessee tacklers and car ried the ball from midfield for a touchdown. Hackney failed to convert. Tennessee was handed a safe ty late in the third quarter when the referee ruled that the pass from Parker who was standing in the end zone had been picked . off the ground by Smith in the end zone, automatically giving Tennessee a safety. The Vols made a score on their own hook when Dickens passed to Wyatt for 12 yards and a touchdown. The placement was good and Tennessee went into . the fourth quarter leading 9-6. Early in the fourth quarter, after a march down the field on power plays, the pass play from Hackney to Parker clicked and Duke made their second touch down and then converted to take over a 13-9 lead.
