Wade's ultimatum against Wildcat
machines. Will Wade make good
again this year? It is his last on- portunity.
It also is Kentucky's
last, to show him whether he is
right or wrong. Wade goes to Duke
next season.
Results of games since Mr. wade
made his flat are: 1923 Kentucky
8, Alabama 16: 1924 Kentucky 7,
Alabama 42; 1925 Kentucky 0, Alabama 30; 1926 Kentucky 0, Alabama

Kentucky 13. Alabama 24.
Not since the 1922 team on which
Pribble, of the local coaching staff,
played, has there been a Kentucky
victory. Kentucky, without much
of a show, went on the field and
staged an offensive battle against
a heavy Alabama line, they scooted
through for a touchdown.
The
pressureless Tide went on the defensive and thereby lost 6 to 0.
