Great Send-Off Given Bulldogs By Enthusiasts The send off the student body gave the Georgia Bulldogs Wednes day night as they departed for New Haven was even greater than the welcome accorded them last year as they returned with the first victory I over the Bulldogs of the East. Last j year the same Bulldogs, came from the north with the greatest victory in the history of the school and were given a glorious welcome by the student body. But the milling, cheering throng that overcrowded the depot as the team prepared for departure, and the spirit-mad crowd which overflowed at the chapel and made a bedlam of the city streets as they paraded to the Seaboard station, made that memorable Tues day of last October a mere land mark in the march of the Bulldogs (Continued on page 5) Seven Selected By Thalians in Girls Contest The Girls’ Try-out for the Thalian Dramatic club was held on Tuesday evening in Peabody hall.

Two trips will be made by the photographer, the first coming this month and lasting into Novem ber, and a second trip coming in January.

TEAM LEAVES IN GOOD SHAPE FOR GAME WITH VALE The Atlanta Special pulled out of Athens Wednesday* with Georgia’s hopes of a second victory over Yale on board. After a month of prac tice the Bulldogs are in the best shape of the yenr for the game with the Blue. The team, Coach Mehre, Coach Crowley, Coach Chirk Shiver, their wives, Dean Sanford, and Managers Craig Barrow and Doug Faegin are making the trip. The conches have not stated definitely that they ex pect to win but it Is generally con ceded that Georgia has a fairly good chance of mnking it two straight over Yale. Strenuous work-outs have been given the team all week and they have been going through their paces well. Tuesday the varsity was put- through a long scrimmuge and they looked as good as they have at any time this year. They gave the fresh man one fast afternoon. This only shows that they are preparing for Yale with real determination. Roy Jacobson got in his first scrimmage since his injury that afternoon and It seemed to give him little trouble. The team will arrive in New Haven In time to get a work-out Fri day In the Yale Bowl. It is a signal honor that the Georgia team prac tices there for no other team in the country ever works out there. Even Yale uses another field for practice. With every detail taken care of and everything In readiness for the big affair there is nothing to do but wait and see Just how good this year’s team Is. The Yale game will bring out Georgia’s strength as well as Its weaknesses. From tackle to tuckle the line is stronger than it was last year. Boland has one more year of experience to his Jcredit, Jacobson will be better this year, and Lautzenhiser and Frisbee should be (Continued on page 5) British Debating Team to Meet Georgia Orators The British University’s Women's debating team, the first to tour America, will come to the University of Georgia November 1 prepared to meet a debating team of either sex.
