Satans Battle Highly-Favored
Greenclads to Scoreless First Half By JIMMIE ANGELOPOLOUS
If it wasn’t for a guy named Joe, Tech and Shortridge might,
still be battling today like the Blue and Green usually battle.
Not that Joe Sexson, Tech’s jack of all trades and master of ‘em all, was the only man of means in the Big Green's 19 to 0 hand-
cuffing of Shortridge at Tech last night. Joe happened to end the game in the greenclad’s

97 yards rushing, averaging six vards per try in 16 carries, and ictually setting up Sexson’s first touchdown shortly after the intermission,
In six straight tries, Bierman ripped through the Blue line for 37 yards down to the Shortridge 26, making Shortridge Biermanpunchy, Then Sexson moved to left end, took a 10-yard flip from Quarterback Les Gerlach and shook loose from plucky Ward Walker on the 10.
Eleven plays later the speedy, clever Sexson reaped the rewards of Blerman's (and the line's) labors. Shortridge’s Ron Passwater, Jay Jacobs and Stan Feezle Jr. first-downed their way to the Tech 27, but the Green held and Tech took over. Bierman bored for nine, tore off six more yards, then. Sexson exploded inside the right end through Shortridge’s 6-2-3 defense for 58 yards down the right side.
Turnipseed Off Mark
For the second straight time, Tech's Gene Turnipseed, who had kicked 21 out of 24 from placement, was slightly wide of uprights. On the - rubsequent kickoff, Shortridge marched again with Walker and Ed Praed paving the way, but the drive stalled on the Tech 37 when Sam Stuckhardt recovered Jacobs’ fumble,
An exchange of punts found Tech drilling for oil again with Sexson gushing over for his third) TD. Walker punted a fine roller to the Tech 14, Bierman made 7 and 2, then Sexson reversed to the left for 26 yards to midfield. Jierman made nine more, Tech was penalized twice to the midstripe, Bill Norris made 4, then Sexson added the final 46, banging off guard into the clear.

Rickey-Dodger Pact Ends Today
Of Pirate Tieup
By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK, Oct. 28-—An era ends 'h Brooklyn today when Branch Rickey’'s contract as general manager of the Dodgers expires—but the 69-year-old front

accept a job“with another club— or, for that matter, be formally approached—until his last ties with the Brooklyn club are severed. Technicality Resolved
That last technical difficulty St. Louis
said Rickey would “pay him a social call.” In taking the Pittsburgh job, Rickey resisted an impulse to accept one of the greatest challenges of any career—the rehabilitation of the St. Louis Browns. Powerful forces within the American League’s official family were eager to bring the creator of baseball's farm system to St. Louis. They were convinced that only a man of Rickey's divérse talents could breathe new life into the A. L.'s stepchild. Meetings Scheduled
While the Rickey-to-Pittsburgh announcement was awaited, Brooklyn executives plunged into
Branch’'s absence. Walter O0’'Malley, new president of the club, said “board of strategy” meetings would. be held every day for at least a week. O'Malley pointed out that Rickey had spent the last two weeks putting the Dodgers’ farflung system in “tip-top shape.” “We are idenbted to Mr. Rickey for his work in the last two weeks,” O'Malley said. “He probably saved the club thousands of dollars.” O'Malley indicated there would be no immediate clarification of Burt Shotton’s position. Shortstop Peewee Reese is the leading candidate to succeed Shotton.
