Here is the Tennessee team in a nutshell: The ball is snapped: the hole opens and shuts with the speed of a dog snapping at a fly; [ but in the brief interval a Ten-1 nessee back, usually Cafego or; Coffman, is through that hole and [ winging past the secondary, license • plates shining in the sun.

PITT-CARNEGIE GAME FEATURE Southern California-Cali-fornia Tilt Also Os Interest New York. Nov. 4. — (U.R) — A heavy intersectional schedule headlined by the Fordham-St. Mary's game at New York challenged a pair of neighborhood brawls today for attention on the national football program. Undoubtedly. the CaliforniaSouthern California and the PittCarnegie Tech tilts will be ore closely watched than any in the country because Pittsburgh's Panthers have their sights trained on the ythical national title, and the other game should determine the western Rose Bowl team. Ordinarily’, Pitt should should beat the Sklbos by three or four touchdowns, but the Panthers got a good going over before they fint ally beat Fordham in the final period last week, and if they should happen to suffer a letdown. Techa may provide grid fans with the season's biggest upset. The all-California affair is the one that really has the pigskin experts guessing. Southern California has coe along sensationally since losing the season opener to Alabama. The Trojans have shown enough power in rolling [ over Oregon State, Ohio State, Washington State, Stanford and Oregon to upset the undefeated ' Golden Bears. This game virtualyy will decide the Pacific coast conference title, so it looks like the winner will be representing | the west in the tournament of Roses festival at Pasadena on New Year’s day. It will be the eighth annual meeting between Fordham and St. Mary’s and the game is fast becoming one of New York's “das i sics.” To make it more interesting, the two clubs are tied, each having won three mile one game ended in atie. Both have been dei seated once, and each by the out- ' rtanding eleven of their sectors. The Gaels lost to California’s I powerhouse in the last two mini utes, and Fordham gave Pitt a hell of a fight for 50 minutes last week.

FORMER BOXER SLAIN BY YOUTH Protests Parking On Lawn, Killed By One Os Four Lads Chicago. Nov. 4.—<U.R)—Donald Warden. 27, one-time boxer, was listening to the radio in his living ; room last night wen a motorist I swung up 't<» the curb and parked his automobile, one wheel digging into the front lawn. Warden noticed it and became 1 angry. He had engaged in several quarrels with motorists who had left their automobiles in front of his home while they went to nearby theaters and stores. Many times he had been unable to find a parking space for his own machine. The damage to the lawn, however slight, was particularly i exasperating to him. He told his wife, Annettee, to call police and ran outside. “You can't park there,” he shout- ' ed. Four youths, described by witnesses as “only young fellows.'' 1 climbed out of the automobile. They shouted taunting remarks. Warden battled three of them. Suddenly the fourth stepped up, drew a pistol and fired. Warden slumped to the ground, a bullet through his heart. The youths climbed into the automobile and tied. o Plower Lover Exites Suspicion Oroville, Cal. — (U.R) —Traffic officer Carl Rabe received an urgent I call from a citizen to investigate
