Bullpups Battle Baby Jackets
In Thanksgiving Day Struggle
Point-a-Minute Freshmen Are Planning
To Take Lead Thursday in Tech Series
Grant Field to Be Scene of
Annual Clash; Georgia
Freshmen Favorites
By Thomas B. I’ark
Georgia’s Bullpups and Tech’s
Baby Jackets will clash Thursday on
Grant Field at 2 o’clock (CST) for
the annual Thanksgiving Day Foot
ball Classic.
Net receipts of the game after the
necessary expenses have been deduct
ed will be turned over to the Scottish
Rite Hospital for cripple children.
This year's game will be the
seventh time the two teams have
met for the Scottish Rite benefit.
Adverse weather has haunted every
game. There has been rain, snow,
or sleet to check the attendance each
year.
The present freshman squad is
rated as one of the best in the Uni
versity’s history- With many high
school and prep school stars in its
ranks, the squad was highly rated
before the season opened.
Came the season and no one was
disappointed in the least. The Bull
pups became known as the “point-a-
minute men” after their first two
contests in which they defeated the
South Carolina freshmen and G. M.
C., 68-0 and 65-6, respectively. Thus,
if they score 47 points in the com
ing battle with Tech, they will have
a record of one point for each minute
of play during the year.
The Tech freshmen have met only
one team to date, the Auburn fresh
men who won, 10-0. Some football
fans have suggested that the Baby
Jackets were possibly laying for the
Bullpups and were not up to par in
their Auburn loss. Coach Howel'l
Hollis, Bullpup mentor, when asked
his opinion of this, replied, “Foot
ball is a funny game and the foot
ball is a funny shape; no one knows
which way it will bounce when it
lands.”
Tickets for the game are $1 and
may be purchased at the athletic
ticket office at the University Press.
Thus, far, 10,000 tickets have been
sold, athletic officials announced.

Candler Hall Licks
Kappa Sigma, 61-0
Scores ranging all the way from
61 to 0 to 2 to 0 were turned in dur
ing the sixth week of intramural play.
The high score of the week, 61-0.
was recorded by Candler Hall over
Kappa Sigma in one of the leading
games of the Sanford League. In
a close game. Sigma Chi won over
Pi Kappa Alpha, 6-0, while Sigma
Nu crushed Delta Tan Delta, 39-0,
with no person scoring more than
one touchdown. Chi Phi and Sigma
Nu battled to a 6-6 deadlock in a
game played last week-end.
A 2-0 victory was chalked up by
Kappa Alpha over the previously un
defeated Joe Brown team in an ex
citing "X” Club League tilt. Led
by the passing of Calhoun Bowen,
Phi Delta Theta defeated Old Col
lege, 45-0. Pi Kappa Phi won their
first game of the season by edging
out Milledge Hall, 7 to 6, and Kap
pa Alpha defeated Phi Epsilon PI,
21 to 0.
In the Blue Key League, only ac
tion was S. A. E.’s victory over A.
T. O. 26 to 0. Other Blue Key tilts
resulted in Lambda Chi Alpha and
Chi Psi receiving forfeits-
Feature games next week are the
S. A. E.-Lambda Chi Alpha, K. A.-
Phi Delta Theta, and Candler Hall-
Sigma Nu battles. They will decide
the championship of their respective
leagues.
To knock the scales off balance in
their favor will be the object of the
point-a-minute Georgia Bullpups
when they meet the Georgia Tech
Baby Jackets in their annual char
ity game next Thursday in Atlanta.
The meeting on Grant Field will
be the seventh time the two teams
have faced each other, each having
won three games. Oddly enough,
each team has scored a total of 66
points in the series.
In many respects the Bullpups are
favored, having created quite a sen
sation so far this season in downing
the South Carolina Biddies 68-0, and
the strong G. M. C. team 65-6. On
the other hand, the Baby Jackets
have lost their only game to the
Auburn freshmen, 10-0, last week.
In the Inaugural game in 1933, the
Bullpups won 13-0. The following
year the Jackets defeated the Geor
gia frosh, 20-14, but in 1935 the
Red and Black team came back, eking
out a 7-6 decision.
The next year found the Georgia
freshmen with the upper hand, the
score being 20-12. In 1937 the Tech
freshmen won by the same score. Last
year, in the snow and sleet, the Bull
pups lost their second straight game,
8-0.
The 1939 game? Time alone will
toll!
