A specisl train, Is being arranged- Somehow the notion has moved around that this is Vandy's year if ever to do eomething about the famine which hat exi.t.d since 1926, so far as the Commodore are concerned. SOME of the boy are whirling around darting hither and yon contending that this is one of the history making years of the gridiron because they say there are eo few elans which are unbeaten as well st bsing untied. "A year ago," ens prominent party announced, "there were a lotta teams which hadn't been beaten. Now just look at how few of 'em are left." He must mean how few of them are right.

Commodores emerged with a 41 to I victory over a badly outclassed Sewanee Tiger in Dudley stadium Saturday. It marked the Gold and Black's hl'; st score since the Commodores mauled Georgia Tech, 49 to in 1931, and It was Sewanee's greatest los since 1921 when FlirMa gave the Tigers a 71-1 setback. Although Coach Ray Morrison's first string Commodores did not start and only a few of them played aa much as one period, the Commo-. dores outclassed the mountain Tiger in every department. They completely bottled up the Tiger running game, and either broke up or Intercepted practically everyone of the visitors' aerial bombs as they held the Purple to a single first down.
