Bulldogs Hammer
Commodore Line
For 9-0 Victory
\ anderbilt Gives Georgia
Hard Tussle; Catfish Smith
Scores Only Touchdown
Contrary to the opinion of the un
initiated, the Georgia Bulldogs were
not off form when they tackled Dan
McGugin’s Commodores whom Geor
gia defeated 9-0 last Saturday.
Vanderbilt possessed a line that
was stronger than any the Bulldogs
have yet faced. They faced it with
a forward wall that found “Red”
Maddox below his best form due to
injuries, and they faced it with a
center, Batchelor, who is as yet in
experienced in the shifting type of
line play that was Vandy’s forte.
They faced a Vanderbilt backfield
that contained two of the hardest
driving, swiftest stepping halfbacks
in the South, and a quarterback
who wa3 sheer poison when a punt
was nestled under his arm.
Strong Offense
They faced a defense that is the
strongest thing of its kind against
the Notre Dame system.
Bulldog backs were plunging into
a line backed up by Chuggy For
tune, a linebacking full of the old
Pooley Hubert type.
The Georgia second string took
everything that Vandy liad to offer
in the first quarter on the chin. They
took it and still held their own goal
line inviolate. They ran up an im
posing total of first downs, and held
the plunging Vandy backs in the
pinches. Vanderbilt’s passing attack,
a deadly threat, was bottled. Her
runners stepping from straight
formations, were felled on the line
of scrimmage. It was only on the
punt returns that the Bulldogs look
ed bad.
Hard, smashing football gave the
Bulldogs a two point advantage in
the first half, and a brilliant run be
hind the beautiful blocking of Kelly
gave her the score that cinched the
victory.
No New Plays Used
Georgia throughout was under
wraps. In no game yet has she
shown all of her repertoire of scor
ing plays. She has not had to. She
did not have to in the Vanderbilt j
game. There was not a minute,
other than those when little Hender
son was flitting downfleld on a kick
return that the Bulldogs were not
in command of the situation.
If Georgia had been off form, the
great driving of “Mighty” Close,
"Dixie” Roberts, Fortune and the
brilliant Henderson would have re
sulted in a score.
If Georgia had been off form, she
could have drawn a dozen plays from
her bag that would have netted
gains. If she had been off form, lit-
tl Homer Key could have been sent
in to toddle down field for some
yardage.
If Harry Mehre Saturday should
have decided to shoot the works, the
Commodores of Vanderbilt would !
have gone back to the Big Smokies I
under the weight of a much more
thorough trouncing.

Big Send-ofT Given
Georgia Grid Team
A crowd, eager for revenge for a
heart-rending scoreless tie game last
year, rivaled all previous demonstra
tions Thursday night as the Georgia
Bulldogs departed for Gainesville,
Fla., where they meet the 'Gators
Saturday on the gridiron.
Accompanied by a fifty piece band,
which leaves Friday night to help
the Bulldogs in Gainesville, the
crowd voiced mighty shouts of
"Wreck Florida!” “Down with the
Gators!” and other similar expres
sions, showing their lust for revenge
on the team that wracked champion
ship hopes last year by holding an
undefeated Georgia team to a score
less tie on a sandy field in Savannah.
The train, bearing the Bulldogs
eager for revenge, pulled out of the
station at 7:30 p. m., amidst a chorus
of “Alma Mater,” and “Glory.”
Although many of the students
and Georgia supporters are going
to the conflict in Gainesville, most
of them will not leave until Friday,
and were on hand to wish the Bull
dogs well.
The band, fifty strong, leaves Fri
day night at the same hour, arriving
in Gainesville in plenty of time to
lend the Bulldogs moral support
when they go in search of revenge
Saturday.

Bullpups Slopped
By Auburn Frosh
Taking advantage of Georgia’s
ragged playing and poor field gen
eralship, the Auburn Baby Tigers
slopped file Bullpups' victorious
march oy defeating them. 7-0. in
Sanford stadium last Friday.
The Georgia frosh meet Furman's
yearlings here on Nov. 7, in their
next encounter.
Time after time Georgia advanced
deep Into Auburn's territory and Into
scoring position only to fumble or
lose the ball on downH. As the half
ended, the Bullpups were on the
Baby Tigers’ twenty-yard stripe
wildly heaving incomplete passes.
In the second half, Georgia pushed
deep into Auburn's territory twice
to lose the ball on downs because
of penalties and poor selection of
plays.
In the fourth period, a pass, Mor
ris to Fenton, paved the way for an
Auburn marker, and Morris scored
from the ten-yard line. Turner
kicked the extra point.
Holding tenaciously to their lead,
the Baby Tigers fouglit back Geor
gia’s attempts to score and the game
