Speculation Among Footballists | By EDWIN HOLMAN ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 26.—South- ern gridiron wars have become his- ory, save for the Tennessee-Louis- jana State University game, and there's not a team left to wear Dixie’s crown of championship ex- clusively. It looked like things were shap- ing up for the coronation of Duke University, but Georgia Tech. snatched away the throne .and left the Blue Devils to find a seai among the crowd of other defeat- ed teams. Alabama could lay sole claim to the laurel but for a bit of leth- argy that permitted Mississippi to tie the Crimson Tide early this season. ‘Bama Wins Southeastern Murray Teachers College of Ken- tucky emerged with the record of having won every game on its schedule, including seven withi the Southern Intercollegiate Ath- Jotic Association. However, it did not play the major teams in the south, and therefore Dixie is not likely to crown that squad king. Aside from the mythical all- Dixie title, Alabama is at the head of the class undisputedly in th: Southeastern conference. That team closed the season Thanksgiving day by defeating Vanderbilt and writing on the score chart five vie- tories, no defeats and one tie. Louisiana State was eliminated as a title contender by virtue -of its 7-7 tle with Tulane. That made two deadlocked games for L S U Duke and South Carolina won all their games within the South- ern conference. Duke was award- ed the conference championship, however, because its victorles num- bered one more than South Caro- lina’s. & Two-Fold Disaster Georgia Tech's victory by the slight margin of 6-0 was a two- fold disaster for Duke. It crowd- ed the Blue Devils off the highway just when they were reaching out eager hands to lay hold on the all- Dixie title, and it slammed the door against the possible invita- tion from Stanford to play in the Rose Bowl New Year's Day. With Army bowing to Notre | Dame and Princeton barred from | participation by their own choos- | ing, Stanford hardly could have | failed to invite Duke had the Blue ‘Devus kept clear of defeat or tie by winning over Tech. ———————— HENRY RODEN GOES SOUTH Henry Roden left Juneau Sun- | day on the Northland for Seattle, | where he will meet Mrs. Roden who is visiting there now.
