The official count was 2 to 0. The tale of the Red and Rlack’s defeat may be told in a few words: The visitors bunched their bingles and the losers did not. Grant, on the hilltop for the Donahoo clan, yielded six hits, the lUilldogs be ing able to get more than one In an inning only one time, and then good fielding held down a tally. WINNERS FIELD FAUL/T- I.ESSLY. The Orange and Ulue played error less bal. Auburn earned one of her runs in the third. Pitcher Grant tripled with one down. When Richardson hit a measly roller to Pantone, the Auburn hurler set out for home. Hesitating when half way, and then stepping on the gas, he wa c an easy victim at the plate. This same Richardson scored all the way from first a moment later when .1. D.- Thomason, Bulldog right-field er threw wild and bigorously to third to head him off, the ball going through Hutcheson and his backer- up. The Plainsmen scored another in the sixth, when with two down, Knowles doubled and tallied on "Big Ed" Shirling's smash which bounced off of George Dark's glove. Thus It is that errors by the Georgia out field contributed largely to the Au burn victory. A PITCHER'S RATTLE. The game was a hurler’s battle. Neither moundsman passed a man to first. Both were touched for six bingles. and appeared to be as strong at the end as they were when they first started on the hill. The heavy-hitting Bulldogs never sent a man as far as third base, seemingly having a very infrequent off-day with the willow. The most serious Red and Black scoring bid came in the eighth. Boney singled | cleanly to start the inning. Pat j Powers lined a vicious one to Rich- j ardson. who. be it explained, was a j troublesome man for the Red and Black cause all afternoon. Cliff Pantone slapped a single, and “IJig Sam" ambled to second. With I the entire local populace calling for | oije nioe little binge, Cody and Cark | striving valiantly to knot the count, j went out on pops to third and pitch er respectively. In the other frames Grant judi ciously allowed one hit per inning, j and the crowd in the stands waited ' expectantly for the break to occur in the Auburn defense, but the break has not come until this moment. The | “Tigers” of the Plains absolutely re- fralned to get the least bit unsteady, and it soon became evident that only [ clean hits would win the ball game. I Slack and Smith Lose Semi-finals Doubles Match to Tech Pair, 6 3, 6-1, 6 2. The University of Georgia tennis 1 team journeyed to Atlanta Thursday to represent the school in the an nual S. I. A. A. tennis meet. The singles matches were handled by Collings and Ecverett, while the doubles team was composed of Boy kin Smith and Charles Slack. All survived the first day’s play. In the first round Collings defeat ed Klock of the University of Flori da, without much opposition, the score being 6-3, 6-4. His opponent in the second round, Merritt of Mer cer, was even easier. Dave won his match handily, 6-2, 6-3. Everett was eliminated in the second round by Murray of Tulane University. The score of this match was 6-2, 6-2. In the semi-final round Collings was defeated by Blake of Tech in an in teresting match. Although Dave was considerably off his game, the play was much closer than the score might indicate. Blake won in two sets, 6-3, 6-1. Slack and Smith met the Tech team composed of Blake and Wil liamson. This was a three set match, as it was in the semi-final round. The Tech pair -finally tri umphed, 6-3, 6-1, 6-2. Five matches were played by the team; two of these were victories and three were defeats. The schools represented in the tourney were Georgia, Mercer, Tech, Oglethorpe, Tulane, and Florida. GAME DEVOID OF FEATURES. The melee was devoid of hear-rais- ing features. We might cite Shirling and Scott, for the former not only played a great game around short but with the latter, drove in the two "Tiger" tallies. The work of Rich ardson around second was worthy of exceptional comment. He was the defensive star of the game. He rob bed Pat Powers of a hit, and cavort ed himself in such a seintilating man ner that his presence in Athens as a baseball opponent is henceforth undesirable. Boney and Pantone were the only “Bulldogs" to find the delivery of Grant easy. They each secured two safeties. The Roy Score. “Stitt" Wilson Presides at Mock Funeral Ceremonies for Tiger Coach.

Opposed to l’antone will probably bo Tige Stone, the sterling little right hander of the Baptists, while south paw Allle Thompson is the bet in the second. Big Jack Frost has won all of his seven starts this season, and will hardly drop what may be the last collegiate game he will ever pitch. Georgia, It wll lie recalled, has de feated the Codyraen two times this season already, the first enconter be ing a 9-2 walk-a-way, with Frost serving the pill for the victors, and Pantone besting Thompson in an eleven inning win in the second. The outcome of the games can hardly affect Georgia’s status with respect to the 8. 1. A. A. gonfalon, since the two teams are not ranking equally on tho basis of past records. 75 MEN!
