Ih the miniature of the famed Geor-
gla-Ooorgla Tecli footliull classic.
Rain twice halted the workouts
this week and dampened what might
have been a high point in the drills
as far as scrimmnging Is concerned.
Other than being marked by the
conspicuous absence of many veteran
football players who have been out
because of participation in other
sports nnd because of Injuries, the
practice session has been a success
In that It has given many of the
freshmen nnd other Inexperienced
members of the s<|uud valuable sea
soning In familiarizing them with
the Mehre variation of the Notre
Dame system.
Practice has extended a week long
er than usual because of bad weath
er and the absence of some candi
dates.
The situation in the Georgia line
Is no better. Although material for
the bnckfleld is plentiful, there Is a
definite shortage of ends, tackles,
and guards. Veteran ends Hint will
be on band next fall nre Henry Wag-
eon, Alex Ashford, and Charley Jac
obson. Experienced tackles are Al
len Shi, Harry Harmon, and Julius
Cnesnr Hall; veterans at guard are
Frank Johnson, I^eroy Morehend,
and Dub I<aw; co-cnptnln John Mc-
Knight and Bob Law will be back at
the pivot position.
In the game last Friday, “Oeor-
gln" beat “Tulnno” by a score of
15 to 14, when “Georgia” scored a
safety late in the game. Coaches
Weems Baskin and Catfish Smith
head the “Georgia” team and Coaches
Rex Enright and Tiger Bennett head
the opposition team.
Coach Mehre snid that there would
he sonic changes made In the divis
ion of the linemen between the
“Georgia” nnd “Tech" tennis but
that the backflelds would be the same
ns in the other games.
Stnrtlng backs In the game Friday
probnbly will be: Jones, Hnrttnnn,
Roddenherrv, nnd Young for “Geor
gia;" and Green, Treadaway, Hol
lis, and Johnson for the “Techs.”
In the two previous games the
tennis were so closely matched that
the totnl scores show a difference
of only one point, and a good game
Is in store for off-season football
fans down in Sanford stadium today.
No admission will be charged and
in case of good weather a large
crowd will attend this contest.
Tennis Prospects Bright
As Veteran Team Returns
With a veteran team of five let-
termen returning this year, the Bull
dog tennis team has excellent pros
pects of going through a successful
season.
Headed by Bud Lindsay, the team
will be built around Wade Hoyt,
Frank Swift, Ed Landau, nnd Phil
Jordan, and will be reinforced by
the addition of several freshmen
from last year’s ranks including
Aaron Cohn, frosh star of last sea
son.

cludes nine matches, six at home and
three on trips. The racket-wlelders

Baseball Aspirants
Work During Week
Minus Coach Smith
Baseball practice, held under the
supervision of Captain Cy Grant on
the absence of Coach Catfish Smith,
who was still engaged with the
spring football drills, was made
doubly light this first week by bad
weather.
Nineteen candidates reported for
the first drill Monday and among
them were seven pitchers and seven
lettormen from last season. Although
practices were held early so they
would not interfere with football,
all the men expected out were not
present because of participation in
other sports.
Frank Johnson and Bill Hartman
and others will join the squad later.
A more cheerful light was put
on the pitching situation when it
was known that eight hurlers would
be uvailnhle for use this season, even
if the merit of some of them is un
known. Lefty Nichols, Julius Bish
op, Frank Johnson, Buck Geer are
expected to bear most of the burden
on the mound.
More serious work begins Monday
when Coach Smith takes over the
squad and starts preparation for the
16-game schedule this spring which
includes a contest with the World
Champion St. Louis CardinnU in
Dublin, Ga., April 2.
Aspirants reporting for the pre
liminary work Monday were: Alf
Anderson, short stop; Jordan Ennis,
Henry Wagnon, and Cy Grant, out-
flelders; Charlie Treadaway, Jimmy
Moore, and Harold Daniel, second
base; J. D. Marable, Julius Bishop,
Buck Geer, Lonnie Foster. Benjamin,
Harold Halstrand, and Lefty Nich
ols, pitchers; Andy Anderson, Har

After taking an early lead and
protecting it throughout the whole
game, the Old College basketball
team defeated the Chi Phi quintet
23 to 17 Tuesday night in the finals
of the annual Intramural cage tour
nament.
The winners played good ball all
through the game, with Parker, Old
College pivot-man, shooting eight
points to share high point honors
with Cromer Shuler, Chi Phi guard.
The Old College hoopsters led at
the half 11 to 8, and were on the
long end of a 19 to 14 score at the
end of the third quarter. Parker
and Pressman were the stars for the
victors, while Shuler and Conyers
looked good for the Chi Phis.
In the semi-final games played
Monday night, Old College downed
the Sigma Nus 4 0 to 7, and the Chi
Phis eliminated the Joe Brown en
trant 23 to 21.
In the Blue Key bowling league,
the S. A. E. team is still in first
place with five victories and no de
feats. Sigma Nu gained possession
of top place in the "X” Club loop
by giving Phi Delta Theta its first
defeat last week. The Sigma Nu
team has also won five straight
games. Rain forced the postponement
of all soccer games scheduled for this
week.
A chart showing the standings of
all groups in all fall quarter sports
has been made and is now posted
in Director Jack Frost’s office in the
Athletic building. S. A. E. is lead
ing with a total of 385 points to
their credit, the Kappa Sigs are sec
ond with a total of 34 5 points, the
Sigma Nus have 340 points for third
place, and Phi Delta Theta is fourth
with a total of 335 points.
The swimming meet and track and
field events scheduled for the latter
part of this quarter will be post
poned until after examinations.
Frost said.
Four Georgia fighters left Wed
nesday foe New Orleans to compete
in the Southeastern conference box
ing tournament to be held there Fri
day and Saturday.
Captain Mickey Radutzky, 149
pound class; Ben Boulware, 169;
Charley Jacobson, light heavy; and
Sidney Perlow, unlimited, are fav
ored to make a good showing in the
New Orleans meet where the cream
of Southeastern boxers will convene
for the two-day competition. Coach
Clarence Jones accompanied the
team.
The Georgia squad ended the sea
son last Saturday when they lost a
meet to a fast, aggressive Presby
terian college team in Woodruff hall,
4% to 3%. The Bulldogs tallies
were the results of Radutzky’s TKO
over his opponent, Dick Winston’s
decision, Sidney Perlow’s victory by
a forfeit, and the draw that Charley
Jacobson got with his opponent.
Georgia was forced to forfeit in the
129 pound class, the 139, and the
169 pound class, and lost the 119
pound bout.
Five losses, two victories, and one
tie is the record of the Georgia team
in the first season since boxing has
become a major sport.
Prospects for the fighters next
year are good, as none of the box
ers will be lost by graduation, and
the experience gathered in the eight
contests this year should make the
Bulldogs a much stronger contender.
Radutzky and Jacobson are given
a better than even chance to win
their weights in the Southeastern
meet this week-end. Radutzky has
won every fight this season by a
knock-out except one which he took
by a decision; and Jacobson is un
defeated although he has been held
to draws in three bouts.

Bulldog swimmers engage the
strong Florida ’Gators in the Phys
ical Education building pool next
Monday at 4 p. m., after losing a
close match with the Auburn Plains
men here iast Saturday, 45% to
38%, in a meet that wasn’t decided
until the last event was run off.
The ’Gators are favorites to out
point Georgia with their faster squad
since they hold a four-point victory
over Clemson, who in turn has beat
en Georgia, but additional work in
correcting faults brougnt out in the
Auburn meet will let the Bulldogs
go into the meet with a stronger
team than they have had since the
1934 season.
Previous matches have shown that
the swimmers are especially weak
in the free-style events, and Coach
Clarence Jones will probably shift
one or more of the breast strokers
into the free-style dashes. Bud
Haines will probably swim in the
220 or 440 yard free style instead
of the breast stroke or in the med
ley relay.
Morris, of Auburn, unofficially
broke the Southeastern conference
record in the 440 yard free style
with a time of 5:48.6, and with
Wheeler was the high point man for
the meet, each scoring 12 points.
Georgia scored first and second
in the 200 yard breast stroke, when
Myer Rosenstein and Leon Kahn led
the Plainsmen to the tape. Ned
Hodgson and Dean Covington scored
first and second in the diving events,
and Georgia won the 300 yard med
ley relay with Clarence Todd, Bud
Haines, and Asa Candler swimming.
The Bulldogs have three more
meets scheduled for this season one
of which is with the Tech Y’ellow
Jackets who have scored consistent
victories over them fpr several sea
sons.
