BULLDOGS START

Wednesday night the Georgia foot
ball team starts on Its sixth Invasion

Georgia Bulldogs were the only
team in the eountry to defeat Yale

Remembrance of last year’s vic
torious march by the Georgia Hull-
dogs not only causes greater interest
and speculation among Red and
Rlack supporters but also trains the
eyes of the football world on Coach
Mchre’s team. And Saturday the
Georgia eleven makes its opening
bow in the first public appearance of
the current football season.
great victory that the Georgia team
goes forth Into the east.
Reports from the east indicate that
Yale Is doing everything possible to
get ready for the Georgia team and
that every endeavor will he made to
avenge the defeat of last year. Coach
Mehre is not conceding nnything to
Yale, however, and it is assured that
the Georgia team will enter the

the full force of the Georgia attack.
Yale lost by graduation practically
But perhaps the word bow was
ill chosen; the Mercer Bears are
counted upon to do the bowing. At
loaHt they have a perfect slate in this
regard during all the years the Ma
con and Athens institutions have
met on the gridiron, however lust
ily they have yelled and hoped to
give history a kick in the pants and
set precedent. Teams have come
and teams have gone, parading their
futile little hours in the spotlight,
but the results have been the same.

the same men that Georgia lost. Two
great ends were lost by both teams,
a guard who received nll-Amerlcan
mention were lost by each team, a
tackle nnd two halfbacks were loBt
by both Georgia and Yale. How
ever, Ynle lost the great Bruce Cald
well, all-American halfback nnd this
loss was greater than nny of Geor
gia’s hackfleld losses. Caldwell, in
the fourth quarter of last year’s
game, gained twenty-two times out
of the twenty-four he carried the ball
and It was only on the goal line that
an inspired Georgia team managed
to stop him. The Georgia team will
not have this man to go up ngatnst
this year.
Coach Mehre Is putting his men
through long workouts each day to
get them rendy for this game and
when the whistle blows on the thir
teenth Yale will be confronted with
all that Georgia can muster.
Co-Eds to Have
Tennis Tourney
The Michael's Cup Tournament
will be held soon with tennis teams
representing all the Women’s dormi
tories and Sorority houses participat
ing. Each team will conduct Its own
preliminaries nnd the girls selected
will compete under the rules of the
Women's Athletic association.
Last year the cup was won by the
Ch| Omega Sorority represented by
Miss Elsie Jester and Miss Alice
Rowland. The teams fighting for
the trophy this year are Chi Omega.

JOHNSON SHOE COMPANY
TO GIVE PI,AYKK SHOPS
Past performances do not win
games; but, frankly, Georgia should
be the victor by at least three touch
downs.
Having disposed of that matter,
let us proceed with the lesson. Next
Wednesday the annual trek to New
Haven and the consequent encounter
with the Northern Bulldogs of Old
ICli begins—begins for the team and
those fortunate enough to have rail
way transportation. Due to the
14-10 score of last October, a greater
number of Georgians than ever be
fore will make the long Journey.
Various nnd sundry methods of
transportation are being considered
by our carefree colleglates. The ad
vance guard of those intending to go
by the pickup route will check out
Sunday nnd Monday, followed by au
tomobiles loaded with others Tues
day and Wednesday.
The team will arrive in New York
over the Seaboard Thursday night,
stop over in the metropolis until
Friday, arriving in New Haven in
time for the workout. Their sup
porters will get there when they ar
rive. and some won’t even get to
arrive at their destination.! Bu>t
those who do are not likely to re
gret the trials and tribulations of
traveling.
A last minute analysis of the Bull
dogs indicates that the forward wall
will average slightly less than 190
pounds, at least as strong as in 19 27
except for the ends, and with a vet
eran backfleld that should be even
greater than a year ago when 238
points were rolled up in nine games.
There is a sufficient quantity of
backfleld reserve material, and there

Jacobson Breaks
Hand in Practice
The first blow to the 1928 foot
ball prospects was received last Sat
urday when Roy Jacobson, co-cap
tain of the Bulldog team, broke a
bone in his hand during the scrim
mage with the freshmen. Jacobson
has been unable to participate in
practice this week although he has
been working out in order to keep
In good physical condition. It will
be impossible for him to play in the
Mercer game Saturday but it is ex
pected that he will be sufficiently re
covered to get in the Yale game on
the thirteenth. Jacobson is one of]
the bulwarks of the Georgia forward
wall nnd his loss will be keenly felt.
Johnson, Hill, Hooks, and Roth-
stein have been applying their toes
to the ball in punting practice re
cently. Johnson probably will be
the main dependence and we beg to
advance the suggestion that he isn't
an amateur.
Roy Jacobson will be out of the
Mercer game, but watch his name tn
accounts of the Yale affair.
The regular lineup Saturday will
be something like this: Smith, right
end; Lautzenhiser, right tackle;
Haley, right guard; Roland, center;
Huff, left guard; Frisbie or Stelling,
left tackle; Moffett, left end: John
son. quarterback; Dudley and Hooks,
halves; McCrary, fullback. Hern
don and Ringel might be in at
guard, and Bryant may be seen at
tackle. Smith and Moffett have no
cinch on the flanks, but they have
looked best. Nixon. Palmer. Brad
ley, Kelley, and McTigue all are
likely to be given a chance during
the game.

FROSH ROUTED BY
VARSITY TEAR IN
SATURDAY’S GAME
The practice game with the varsity
last Saturday showed the highly
touted freshman team to be lacking
the strength credited them. The
varsity completely anihilated the
freshmen, winning 74 to 0. The
freshmen did not offer much oppo
sition to the onslaught of the var
sity. Since Saturday’s scrimmage,
however, the freshmen have been im
proving constantly and in Wednes
day’s scrimmage they held the var
sity fairly well. Gene Smith has
been working tirelessly with his
charges and they are beginning to
show some form. There is an abund
ance of material and a good fresh
man team should be turned out, but
a showing like the one made Satur-
I day is enough to dishearten the most
ardent enthusiast.
The freshman team suffered a real
loss in the injury of Jimmy Sternoff.
Sternoff is a fullback and he was
going good when the accident oc
curred. His knee was hurt while
blocking an end.
The first game is on the twelfth
and in that length of time the fresh
men should have developed into a
real team.
