THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Kentucky Ties Vols Tennessee’s Dixie, National Title Hopes Fade in Draw. By Times Special LEXINGTON, Ky., Nov. 27.—Tulane’s unbeaten and untied Green Wave stood alone today as the south's claimant for national football title honors. Tennessee, also unbeaten and a co-claimant for the Dixieland and national title, was the victim of a 6-to-6 tie upset by Kentucky Thursday. Gene McEver, the Vols’ all-Amer-ican candidate, was the only Tennessee back able to pierce Kentucky’s line consistently, but his brilliant play was matched by the great performance of Shipwreck Kelly, Kentucky’s ace ball toter. Feathers accounted for Tennessee’s touchdown in the final period with a seventy-one-yard touchdown behind perfect interference. Davidson, Kentucky guard, blocked a Tennessee punt a few minutes later and Kreuter, end, raced across the goal line to tie the score. Tennessee came back, and, led by McEver, drove to the one-yard line, where Kentucky took over the ball on downs. Another surprise was Alabama’s 14 to 6 triumph over Vanderbilt. The Crimson Tide, after a season of mediocre play, ripped the Vandy line to shreds in the first two quarters and marched to two touchdowns on the running attack of Cain, Long and Holley. Texas A. and M. surprised Texas with a 7 to 6 setback, and Auburn nosed out South Carolina, 13 to 6, in other southern features.

Day and night, twenty-four hours a day, these Ford cars are in operation. Few branches of transportation demand such grueling service.

Stanford on Edge for Tilt With Dartmouth in East

By United Press BOSTON, Nov. 27.—A California football team invaded New England for the first time in history when Glenn (Pop) Warner’s Stanford Indians arrived from Palo Alto to keep a date with the Dartmouth Indians Saturday. Some 55,000 fans will fill Harvard stadium to watch Dartmouth attempt to avenge the 13-7 defeat it suffered at the hands of Stanford on the Pacific coast a year ago. It will not be Warner’s first appearance at Harvard stadium. Twenty years ago his famous Carlisle Indians trimmed Harvard there, 18 to 15, Jim Thorpe’s drop kick deciding the battle. Daring football is expected when Stanford and Dartmouth clash. Neither has to fret over protecting a perfect season’s record, Stanford having dropped tilts to California and Southern California, and Dartmouth losing to Columbia and Harvard.

Quarter back Bill Morton, an allAmerica candidate, and half back ‘‘Wild Bill” McCall, Dartmouth offensive stars, are in excellent shape for the final game of their brilliant careers.

Aarne Frigard stellar defensive and blocking half back who has been out since the Cornell game, also will start.
