Bill Lee, tackle, aided him. but Stanford, while losing, held the answer to everything except How- ( ell. This lad. a native of Hartford, | Ala., scored two touchdowns, threw a pass that led to a third) and -ed his team to a position from which they added a place kick, Howell either directly or indirectly was responsible for ail points Alabama scored except the touchdown the tide added while he was sifting on the bench..

The contest was packed with th .Ta from the start to finish. Led by* "Dynamite" Dave Smukler. Temple surged into a 14-point lead in the first two periods.

But "-Monk'' Simo'us . laying I witli a badly injured shoulder provled the difference in two great l j teams. Taking a short lateral kickoff after Temple's second from quarterback McDaniel on the touchdown, "Monk ' cut to the side-, line and raced 80 yards to score. It was the best run of the day. When Barney Mintz place-kicked ' the extra point Tulane's hopes rose. They scored again in the third quarter after driving to Temple's 11 yard line, when Bucky Bryan passed to Dick Hary. Mintz again kicked the extra point to tie up the game. Victory came in an unexpected' manner when Harry Hardy grabbed a pass that Horace * Bogo" Mowery, Temple back, had partially blocked.

St. Mary's defeated the Decatur ; Commodores in the first tourney , hold here last year. 000 The Commodores disappointed . their fans by dropping the afte.-- 1 noon contest to Anderson. The latter team, however, played fine 1 ball against the Commies and ap- i parently’ had been underestimated. I Anderson appealed tired for the ; I final game with Huntington.

000 [ 1 Decatnr came back in.fine style , in the consolation tilt, however, to hand the Richmond five a sound ; trouncing. Eleven Commies saw action in the consolation tilt and several of the reserves looked surprisingly good. 000 The Commodores will again see action Thursday night, playing Avilla on the local floor. As a I I preliminary, the I.ady Commo I dores will play the Avilla girls’ team. 000 Both Decatur teams will see action Friday night. The Yellow Jackets will entertain our arch enemies, the Bluffton Tigers, on the local floor. From this angle, this game looks like a real battle. Bluffton has lost only one game, to South Side of Fort Wayne. 000 Fans who expect to attend the | Bluffton game are urged to obtain their tickets early, as only a few ! i are available. The high school | office will be open from 7 to 8:30 ; tonight to accomodate fans. 000 The Commodores will be after revenge Friday night when they) brittle the Kirkland Kangaroos at i Kirkland. The Kangaroos nosed , out the Commies on the local floor a few weeks ago, 22 to 21, with a sensational last minute rally. 000 Official announcement was made today that th° Commodores have schedu'ed a game for the home ■ floor for Sunday night, January 6.
