EXHIBITION GAME
Lost to Tech--Georgia Played List
less Ball.
Friday -afternoon on Tech flats
the exhibition iaine was lost to
Tech. This game was more in
the nature of a piactice contest
than anything else as it tlitl not
count in the championship race,
hnt Tech evidently didn’t take it
this way at all. Her team played
a fast and furious game all the
way, while Day pitched the game
of his life.
Score 9 to 1.
Georgia’s game was ragged all
the way through, and the boys
seemed to he saving themselves.
Consequently the game was
never in doubt for an instant.
Tech cinched the game in the
first inning by scoring four runs.
An error and four hits were the j
instruments employed. In the
fourth they scored again on a
base on halls, a sacrifice and a |
hit. Two hits and an infield out j
brought them two more in the
sixth, while two errors, a base
on halls, and two passed halls
added another two in the eighth.
Georgia's only win was scor'd
by McWhorter in the ninth after
a pretty d o u b 1 e. However,
Umpire Jack Evers robbed Geor
gia of another in this inning.
With two down Franklin stole
home in beautiful fashion, com
pletely eluding Knight’s attempt
to tag him. Evers admitted after
the game that he didn’t see the
play very well and so—called the
man out.

Contiuutd on fourth
Last Saturday, in the presence
of some four thousand spectators,
Georgia lost the championship of
the S. 1. A. A. and the state to
Tech in probably the best college
game ever played in Atlanta.
Score If to 2.
The folks turned out in droves.
When the teams began practice
a half hour before time for the
game to begin there was hardly
standing room in the grandstand,
and when the game began the
entire field was surrounded by a
perfect wall of onlookers.
The rooters proper were on the
bleachers to the left of the
grandstand, both Tech and Geor
gia, and there was not the slight
est let up during the fray. The
two brass bands were stationed
one above the other, but the
hired army band of Tech had to
give way to the superior lung
po uotK r. :l.;Hi«.-. -ofs.ii f.>%
lows. From the grandstand
Georgia’s band could be heard
clearer above the uproar of the
students than could Tech’s when
all was quiet.
Five cars full of students and
town folks went over from Ath
ens on a special to swell the
crowd. And they rather opened
the eyes of the Atlanta folks as
to the way to root. As inning
after inning wore on they con
tinued to outroot the Tech’s, nor
did they let up in the least until 1
the last man was out in the ninth.
Misses Garrett of Columbus,
and Holline I’hinizy of Athens, j
were Georgia’s sponsors, and t ho’
we had not the pleasure of know
ing Tech’s fair representatives,
we unhesitatingly state that no
one could be more charming and
beautiful than were our spon
sors.
The game was a great
slab duel l>etween Sulli
van and I-afitte, in which
Latitte made a good start and
gradually weakened, while Sulli-
livan got stronger and stronger.
Sullivan struck out twelve Teeh-
ites, while nine Georgians suc
cumbed to latitte. The hits were
six off of Sullivan and seven off
of Lufitte, while the bases were
cine each. This is the second
time these two twirlers have
clashed and though the games
are evenly divided, the advan
tage is ull with Sullivan. In the
two games lie* struck out 2H men,
gave up eleven hits and two
liases on balls. Lulitte sawed lb
and gave up 17 hits undone huse|
on balls,
Tech won tin* game in the first
inning. Hamilton, tirst up, was
passed. Day bunted, and SuIli- ,
van was on the ball quick us a
Hash, but both runners were safe
when he attempted to toss Ham
ilton out ut second. MeMillun
struck out. Then Knight sin
gled to right und they both
scored on the throw in.
Tech’s other run came in tlu*
second. Stiles reached lirst on
Franklin's error. Hamilton
hunted toSullivun und Stiles was
out at third. Day and McMillan
both singled scoring Hamilton.
In the third Georgia scored her
f!iei i .III. McWboiUfr •.ogled,
went to second on a passed hull.
Then Erwin hit to third, and i
Hamilton thought he could get
McWhorter, but errored and j
Marcus scored.
In the fifth Georgia scored
again. Ginsberg singled. Mc
Whorter flew out to center.
Erwin wus out ut lirst while
Ginsberg reached second, ('up
turn Sullivan then slummed one
out to deep left for two buses,
1 scoring Ginsberg.
After the third inning Sullivan
didn’t ullow u Tech inun to reach
tirst, while Georgia kept getting
on bases. In the sixth und eighth
innings lie sawed three men in
succession.
Evers again umpired. I’erhaps
he did his best. We don’t know.
But his work was very rank, und
some of his decisions extremely
costly, especially to Georgia.
