Meet With Furman
Polo Team to Play
First Match Here
By Bill Ray
After witnessing 10 high school
basketball games In three days, this
writer Is happy to state that bas
ketball has ended as far as he Is
concerned. At the moment the above
sentence was written, mulled over,
and rejoiced In, the writer was in
formed that the fraternities on the
campus had decided to hold a tour
nament and 16 teams would be en
tered. Will tournaments never end?
The fraternity league Is a good
thing. It will do some of the lodge
members good to exercise a little
and pant, swear, kick, etc., for the j
good of old Rho Dammit Rho. S.
A. E's, Chi Phi’s, and Lambda Chi’s,
seem to have the upper hand but
other lodges may turn out to be
dark horses.
Touring
One afternoon spent In visiting
tho various athletic activities in the
male realm revealed the above or
below: Captain Holt’s cavalrymen
rush around on the field below the
military building trying to hit a
ball the size of an orange and call
it polo You may call It something '
else but that Is your privilege. The |
tankmen coached by Clarence Jones
and Eugene Hoppensteln, practice I
in the indoor swimming pool each
afternoon. The humidity Is so great '
and the air so close In the swim- !
mlng room that this scribe hesitated I
to remain lest he catch a cold and
miss a final exam. (Far be it from
mo to cut an exam.) However the
tankmen played about, like male mer
maids In the blue sea. Future pugil
ists pounded each other to a pulp
and then smiled as If to say "I can
take It!” We paused until one fight
er drew blood and then our cave man
instincts being appeased we passed
on or out (of the gym.) The man
agers of the track team were using
up enough bullets to kill off all of
the undesirables in the University
trying to get the sprinters, half
mtlers, etc., off to a flying start.
Spurgeon Chandler, former Geor
gia star pitcher, was knocking out
balls to eager baseball candidates
who rushed about shouting "It's
mine!” Coach Bill White pranced
around like a youngster as things
went to suit his taste.
Drifting over to the stadium we
found all of the football coaches
pleading with tho football men We
say pleading for what they said does
not look nice in the cold perma
nence of print. Weems Baskin, Ver
non “Catfish” Smith, and Ted Twom-
ey, were working on the defensive
as the varsity eleven tried to run
over the defense. We noticed that
Tod Twomey simply slung out his
arm when he wanted to sl:p a man
and the man usually stopped.
As wo were wending our way back
to tho streets of Athens we looked
longingly at the steps leading to Ag
Hill and wished that we could re
port co-ed sports. Thus a pleasant
afternoon ended.
which began Feb. 20 and ends this
afternoon with the freshman-junior
game. The sophomores have won all
of their games.
Mae Dobbs Kincaid. Marietta, cap
tained the winning team. Lucy Lof-
lin, Savannah, served as manager of
basketball for this year.
Saturday Afternoon
Bulldogs Seek Fourth Victory
Of Season at Greenville
Tomorrow Afternoon
The Georgia swimming team will
meet the Furman college tankmen
Saturday afternoon at Furman,
Greenville, S. C., in the third meet
of the season. The Georgia team
defeated Furman in Athens last Fri
day, 63 to 21. In the first match
of the season Emory was defeated
S3 to 31.
Coach Rhodes, Furman, is expect
ed to offer the Georgia team stronger
competition in the return engage
ment than Furman did in the Athens
meet. Captain Sacco of the Furman
squad Is one of the most, talented
divers seen in action here in a long
time. He led the Furman team In
the scoring in the first contest.
Captain Morton Hodgson will be
I he key man in the Georgia attack.
Hodgson was the high point man
last week with three first places.
Men that will make the trip are:
Leon Kahn, Manager Eugene
Hoppensteln. Sam Atkinson, Hutch
Hodgson, Ned Hodgson, Stokely
Pound, Morton Hodgson, Bob Jones,
Franklin Jefferson, Roland Murray,
Wilbur Blackman, Mauric? Stein
berg, and Dick Maxwell.
35 Men Report to
Baseball jCoach
For First Practice
Thursday afternoon rounded out
the first week of practice for the
baseball squad with 35 men out for
the team. Coach Bill White started
the team on batting practice the sec
ond day after the initial roll call.
The squad was boosted Monday
afternoon by the arrival of six men
who had been practicing spring foot
ball. Homer Key, Leroy Moore-
head, Marion Gaston, Cy Grant, Le
roy Young, and Bull Cooper, were
the varsity men that reported to
Coach White.
The nine has been woefully in
need of left-hand hitters but this
gap has been filled by the reporting
of three southpaw batters, Virlyn
Moore, Cy Grant, and Ray Fleming,
to the line-up.
Joe Fine and Jordan Ennis, soph
omore, who had a good record while
at G. M. C., are being counted on to
aid Nicholson and Hamilton in shar
ing the mound work.
Infield drills, pepper games, throw
ing and hitting, are some of the
tasks that the Bulldogs will work
on in next week’s practice. There
may be some practice games in the
next few days.
Coach White intimated that he
would cut the squad for the first time
in his career as a baseball coach
here. As a result the boys are scrap
ping with concerted effort and plen
ty of zest. Nothing definite has been
