Mehre Leads
Team Against
Powerful Vols
Mims, Cate Replace Loss of
Stevens, Vandiver in Con
ference Game
Harry Mehre headed Georgia’s
football (legions toward tho moun
tains of fair Ten-O-See this morn
ing where Saturday afternoon in
Knoxville a gridiron gale will break
with all its fury as the Bulldogs
make their Southeastern Conference
debut against the 'Bama-beaten Vol
unteers of the University of Tennes
see.
Holding the Red and Black hopes
to avenge last year’s 4 6-0 shelling
will be a set of fleet-footed sopho
more backs shoved into heavy ser
vice by the loss of Harry Stevens and
Sanford Vandiver for the season.
Two of the rookie backs, Billy Mims
and Vassa Cate, are booked for
starting assignments at left and
right halfbacks, respectively, while
others will bear the relief burden.
Tennessee Favored
Howell Hollis, freshman backfield
coach who has scouted the Vols in
their past four games, can’t see Geor
gia as the winner unless the Bulldogs
show a complete reversal of form,
and the general opinion being cir
culated by the football grape-vine is
that Hollis is correct to the right
most extent.
But the Volunteers can be beaten.
Their recent defeat at the hands of
Alabama proved the fact. Then, too,
Duke fought the proteges of Major
Bob Neyland to a deadlock. Ten
nessee has a much bettor than aver
age club, but no wonder eleven, and
the feeling that Georgia will hand
the Vols trimming number two ran
strong as the squad of 34 pulled out
of Athens this morning.
Although the backfield burden will
rest largely in the hands of sopho
mores, Georgia will start her cus
tomary veteran forward wall against
the slightly lighter Volunteer line.
Quinton Lumpkin, 210-pound pivot
star who has been mentioned for
All-American honors, will make his
initial appearance before Tennessee
fans who are currently marveling the
sensational work of Vanderbilt’s Carl
Hinkle.
Harp Is Dynamite
Other dependable veterans in the
forward wall will be Pete Tinsley
and Walter Troutman at guards. Bill
Badgett and John Davis at tackles,
and Alternate Captain Otis Maffett
and Marvin Gillespie at the flanks.
In the backfield are expected to be
Lew Young at quarter, Mims at left
half, Cate at right, and Captain Bill
Hartman at fullback.
Neyland has as his chief backfield
clog one Tommy Harp, who is a
glowing example that dynamite
comes in small packages. Though
weighing only 145, the mite does
some mighty running from his tail
back position. His substitute, Wal
ter Wood, is no slouch of a ball
carrier himself, and likewise re
ceives ample opportunity to show
his prowess on the gridiron as Ney-
laud uses the mass substitution sys
tem.

day with a formal reception at Me
morial Hall for all faculty members,

ord for two persons operating an
X-ray machine, the two representa
tives from the State Board of Health
last week X-rayed 178 persons in six
hours at the Crawford W. Long In
firmary. The pictures were made at

Outside Calls Possible at
Night; Dial ‘9’ for Athens
Operator
Telephones on Franklin campus
have been converted to a dial system
designed to facilitate intra-University
communication and reduce the time
required for the placing of outside
calls.
New equipment has been installed
and was put into operation last week.
A dial system has been used on tho
agricultural campus for a year and
is now connected with the Franklin
campus circuit.
Under the new arrangement con
tact with other University phones Is
made by dialing. For outside calls
the user dials the figure "9” and
gives the desired number to the
Athens operator. Incoming calls are
handled through the University op
erator who routes them to the prop
er phones.
Outside calls will be possible on
most of the campus phones at night.
Formerly. special arrangements
were necessary to obtain an outside
line after the operator had left the
switchboard. Incoming calls at night
will also be provided for on certain
phones.
Work on the installation of the
new equipment, which required
nearly four weeks, was done by rep
resentatives of Western Electric.
Other changes made in wiring and
connection with the Athens lines re
quired the erection of new poles and
the stringing of new cables near Le-
Conte Hall and the Commerce-Jour
nalism Building.

Play Acclaimed
"Ah Wilderness!” is tho onily com
edy written by O'Neill, and when it
was produced originally on Broad
way by the Theater Guild it was
called by critics “the greatest play
of America’s greatest playwright.”
It is the story of a typical small
town American family of 1906,
whose problems center about a re
bellious adolescent son. His fervor
for Shaw, Oscar Wilde, and Omar
Khayyam, his romantic troubles with
his next-door sweetheart, and his
youthful unconventional ideas upset
the family and involve them in a
serious situation.
Edward C. Crouse, director of the
Theater, was enthusiastic in his an
nouncement of the play. ”1 believe
‘Ah, Wilderness!’ will be one of the
best plays we have produced at Geor
gia,” he said. "Certainly it will be
one of the best.”
Professors, Back from Europe, Discuss
Experiences of Summer Tours Abroad
By t laudo Davidson
University professors returning
from Europe’s biggest season since
1929 received many impressions of
the Old Country and talked readily
of their experiences when asked to
discuss the highlights of their so
journs.
Among those who toured Europe
during the past summer ars Hubert
Owens of the landscape architecture
department, Edward Crouse of the
journalism school, and Willett Kemp-
ton, who conducted the Georgia Jour
nalism seminar, also of the Journal
ism school.
Mr. Owens went to Europe espe
cially to study and observe gardens,
parks, and other landscape develop
ments. He visited England, Scotland,
Wales, and France.
"I was particularly impressed
with the fact that sports events
seemed to be the most important
news for English people,” Mr. Owens
declared. “After they have digested
the sports news, they will turn to
the war situation and political con
ditions."
While In London. Mr. Owens ex
perienced one of England's worst
heat waves. The thermometer rose
to 81 degrees. “After leaving a tem
perature of 101 degrees in Athens I
didn't notice the heat wave at all,”
Mr. Owens said.
Italy, Austria, Germany, France,
England, Denmark, and Sweden
were visited by Mr. Crouse during
his stay abroad.
Mr. Crouse crossed on an Italian
steamship line. His boat changed
its course and almost touched the
northern coast of Africa in order to
carry medical supplies to a sister
boat that had supposedly been
bombed. “The captain was lying
wounded on the deck but we noticed
no other signs of a bombing,” Mr.
Crouse said.
Mr. Kempton, who toured major
European, countries with Georgia
journalism students, was favorably
impressed with all the countries he
visited. However, he was shocked
to see Vienna so desolate, in com
parison to what it used to be. "It Just
seems to have given up,” he said.
“My most alarming experience
was at a dinner given for the Geor
gia party. I was sitting next to Gen
eral von Mos8ow when he arose to
speak. He pointed to the microphone
and informed me that I would hare
to make a reply to his speech. I
was so floored when he told me that
I would be talking over an interna
tional hook-up that I didn't know
what I was eating.”
