In the Far East, Carnegie Tech's great eleven, undefeated except for a bitter 7-0 loss to the nation's leading Notre Dame team, continued their streak by defeating North Carolina State, 14-0.
The outstanding classic of the day in the East, however, as far as Thanksgiving Day fans were concerned was the magnificent 0-0 struggle between Pennsylvania and Cornell. Cornell, with only a 17-19 loss to Syracuse marring their slate, bounced on the field as overwhelming favourites. But Pennsylvania, its season wrecked by two defeats and two ties, fought Cornell inch for inch to bring the tail-end of end of.their season to a satisfactory, if not brilliant, close.
In the southeast, Tennessee unleash-oda brilliant aerial and ground offense to smother their perennial rivals from Kentucky, 46-0, while several thousand Tennessee fans looked hopefully at the omens for another undefeated season.
Tennessee ranks in the top strata by reason of its record which shows no defeats or ties, but the schedule compares in no way with either that of Texas Christian or Notre Dame.
One of their closest wins was a 14-6 shakedown over Louisiana State, a team which was kicked around' by Mississippi and Auburn. The high spot of their season was a 13-0 win over the Alabama Tornado, which carly in the season was classed as one of the nation's leading elevens.
