With another leg on a national
football championship hanging in
the balance, Georgia’s Bulldogs, one
of the best known football teams in
the nation, will play New York uni
versity in the Yankee stadium Sat
urday afternoon. Georgia will seek
its sixth straight victory of the sea
son.
Cheered off by hundreds of stu
dents on their ride through the
country to New York, the Bulldogs
left Athens on their second Eastern
invasion of the year enrly Thursday
morning. A four-hour stop off In
Spartanburg, S. C., for a light scrim
mage Thursday afternoon broke the
monotony of the long train trip. The
Bulldogs arrived in New York early
today and will remain In seclusion
until game time tomorrow.
Stars Arc Hurl
Three Bulldogs may not see action
in the Violet game, although Coach
Mehre declared Thursday morning
that they would probably play. Ho
mer Key, Spurgeon Chandler, and
Bobby Rose were nursing minor In
juries when the tenm entrained for
New York. Key received a had
bump on his knee in practice Wed
nesday, while Chandler and Rose
are still suffering from injuries re
ceived before the Florida game.
Outside of the three stars every
member of the squad was In fairly
good condition when the team left
for New York. Sam Brown, left
halfback, has a sprained ankle suf
fered In scrimmage Wednesday.
Catfish Smith and Weddington Kel

as is Captain Auntie Downes How
ever, their injuries are not even
painful and they will be ready to
play tomorrow.
Several hundred Bulldog support-
ers, including students, alumni, and
Athenians, are in New York today
awaiting the opening kick off. Fords,
Cadillacs, and every other mode of
transportation carried them north
to Georgia’s last Eastern game of
the year. Chancellor Charles M.
Snelling led the vanguard of Geor
gia supporters into New York.
