In fact a number of spectators left believing the game had been won. With the ball on the 15-yard line in their own territory, the farmers took the brace of their lives, Defeat stareing them in the face, the eleven got a new i grip on life and the wav they played was a caution. Up the Held the A. <fe M. boys carried the ball utilizing main strength. At the 50 yard line their hopes grew stronger and their gains became correspondingly larger. The A. & M. rooters, who had maintained a funeral-like still ness came forward to the side lines with loud and lusty words of encouragement. A down ended with the ball underneath a mass of legs and arms. A. & M finally got the ball within a yard of tlte goal.

The game was a very poor one from the foot ball stand ! point. Georgia started off with a rush that at first carried every tiling before it,and went through A. & M.’s line at will. Rut the ’Varsity soon let up and played very poor ball. Fumbles were frequent, there seemed to be no interference, the tackling was high, and in short the ’Varsity did not play anything like the game she should have played. There was, of course, some lit tle excuse for the poor playing, but we should have won the game by a score of something like 20 to 0. The best playing for Georgia was done by Put nam and Ridley.

The Literary Club. A most gratifying renaissance of college spirit and intellectual activity during the last few weeks has resulted in the forma tion of a literary club, which is as yet unnamed.

Please allow me the use of your columns to make a sugges tion, which if carried out, 1 think will be of pleasure to the graduates and undergraduates of Georgia, as well as of assist ance in raising the spirit of the col lege, Suggestions similar to this have been made before, that is j to have a college song or anthem of our own ; but for lack of in terest, and the need of some one to work it up, the scheme has always fallen through. j the enthusiastic leadership of My idea ts, make it known to ,. rof p., rk tl „. y r . xl „.

The members met together at cessfullv checked. The Georgia the Commercial hotel last En forces brightened while despera tion circles every A. & M. countenance. Welsch, the A. A M. half back, was given the ball on the third down. He I made for the left end and a Georgia player seized him. Two of the A. & M. players were quickly to his rescue 1 and pushed him over with the pig skin safe for a touch down. The score was a tie. Welsch responded to the occasion, kick- a goal and thus added another to A. & M’s string of victories. Save for the last ten minutes, the game, which was character ized by the worst kind of play ing. failed to develop much in terest. Georgia scored in the day night and enjoyed an He-1 gant banquet, of several hours duration. Mr. Jack McCartney acted as toast-master and a number of bright and original toasts were responded to, among them the following : The University—Walter Hammond. Woman—Reiner Denmark. South Georgia—Morton Tur ner. The Real Thing—Irwin Mac Intyre. Tin* Wiregrass Club—Ralph Graves. Besides the purely social side of the club, it has for its object the advancement of the Uni- the alumni of tin old and young, that such a song is ljf*eded, a verse or so at any rate and that competition is wanted, so that all who may be interested in the matter mav compete for the honor of writing the college song. After the par ticular verse has been chosen by a committee, I am sure we could find a member of our faculty who would willingly write tin* music for it. Much a notice could bn pub lished in the Atlanta papers, in the Atlanta papers in a conspic uous place, and in other papers throughout the state by tin* help of the Press Club, and in a short while the committee would have a great many to choose from. This song could bo used at all University celebrations, at alumni dinners, Commencement alumni meetings, glee ond other musical concerts, as well as athletic games, and as we are approaching the centennial of our University, it would be none too early to set about work now, and have it in readiness for that time.
